IT is reported that the population of
Colorado is about 10000 as compared
with 1914, s27 in 1880. This is gain of
100 per cent, Which is large, but does
not equal the gain OF 3S7 per cent. be-
tween 1870 and 1880 1t is enough, how
ever, to give the State two mem bers of
Congress instead of one. The popula-
ton OF the State Of Washington is set
down in round numbers as $500 If
SO, there has been gain of S6e per
cent since 1880, when there were IS. 900
people in the then Territory. Much of
this increase, which will doubtless give
the State another Congressman. Is due
to tho growth OF towns like Seattle.

brain receptiyity and instability that is
called genius, which give way early to
some disease or form of nerve deqener-

insanity, or both, are very common
.sequels. Alcohol or opium in anv form
is almost always grateful remedy. and
is demanded in many instances by the
patient. The use Of bitters that con-
tain large quantities of spirits is also
very popular, and an unconscious or.

In some children this craving for
spirits is manifest very carly. A case
OF this kind was brought to nv notice

infant of two months old could only be
quieted by few drops Of spirits. Its
taste was &c. pronounced that it would
