ETHER DRUNKARDs in IRELAND.

They Can Get Tipsy sex Times III Twenty
Four Hours.
More than two tons of ether are ca:
ried away every year on the railways III
one district of the North of Ireland.
The headquarters of ether drinking is
DraperStown. A population of 100000
persons is more or less etheromaniac.
On market and fair days, wherever
there is q crowd. the atmosphere reeks
with fumes of ether. DR.. Kerr says
that the smell is overpowering, nauseat-
ing and loathsOme. Persons of both
sexes and of all ages have become slaves
TO this degrading AID intractable dis
ease. Women drink as much as men.
One great advantage of ether from tho
point of view of the etheromanic is this:
You can get drunk and get sober again
SO much more rapidly.
The drinker of ether can become Intoxicated
and regain sobriety before the drinkcr OF al
cohol has really become properly intoxicated.
l have known an alcohoist get thoroughly
drunk twice in twenty.four hours. though this
rarely happens, but the educated etherist can,
at pinch, get drunk and sober again six times
in the same space of time. l have seen man
sober az judge at noon, Extensively drunk on
ether in twenty five minutes, and as sober as
before by quarter past one o'clock. The
phases of an ether outbreak can all be eXhib.
| TIED in even less time. The rapidity with which
| the phenomena pass before the vision is truly
astounding. The inexperienced can be drunk
and sober again before he has any idea Of being
drunk.
At first it seems to produce very little
serious effect, but if persisted in it
brings on premature old age and many
disorders. Chronic and distressing in
! fammation of the stomach, impairment
of the digestive functions, trembling,
melancholy and suspicious, lividity,
coldncSS, and intermittent pulse, with
persistent wasting, have not infrcquent-
ly been the penalties paid by the eX-
cessive ether-taker DR.. Kerr says he
has seen an ctheromanic at forty-one
a weakened, bent, dccrepit old man.
There have already been nearly a dozen
fatal eases, perhaps more. The most
terrible influence of ether indulgence is,
however, on the morals. The ether in
cbriate, with morbid and evcr-growing
craving for larger doses of the deadly
drug, which he hates but must devour,
sinks into a loathsomcncss of falsehood,
deceit and cunning.
You can get drunk with ether for
four-pence, but when you are a seasoned
vessel it costs you as much as IA shilling
DR.. Kerr proposes that naphtha should
be added to ether as it is now added to
methylated spirits from which the ether
is extracted. He would abolish the re-
tail trade in ether and contine the sale
to druggists, who would be compelled
to register the name and address of the
purchaser. and the object for which the
ether is applied. In every other way
he would do his utmost to stamp out
the nefarious and pestiferous traffic

RECENT GLEANlNGS.

THE education department of South
Australia has issued a Temperance
Pledge Book for use in the schools.
THE Supreme Court of Massachu-
sets has given an opinion that, if it can
be enforced, will prevent the sale of
wines and spirits in clubs located in
local-option towns of that State.
ACCORDING to DIR. Norman Kerr there
are at least four million tippie:-s in this
country, five million in England, three
million or more in France and an equal
number in Germany, besides a vast host
throughout the rest of the world. 1t is
estimated that one-tenth of these will
probably die drunkards.
A New YORK paper says: at is a
sign of better days ahead that so much
is said and written concerning Temper
ance. Time was when paragraph on
Temperance problems in the more i'm
portant dailies looked lonesome: when
Temperance was touched most ginger

is now in constant use in the papers

llilNh IIlcTe IL d VttSC amount OF
poverty in New York, says prominent
lawyer. and d great deal of it is honest
poverty. How to deal with it is a ques-
ton not easily answered. My own
Judgment, based upon my experiences at
the bar is, that excessive drinking, and
the use of liquor in some form or other,
either directly or indirectly, is the cause
of ninety per cent. of the crime, pow
erty and misery in the community
Y. Independent.
The Wonan's Tribune believes that
if the liquor traffic could be abolished
there would be almCAt no crime against
women, such as are now daily reported.
One who has kept a record says that in
the last two years two thousand and
nine hundred wives have died of brutal
treatment committed by husbands while
under the influence of liquor. If cholera
had killed as many in the same time,
what u call would have gone up for re
presSive measures.

POINTS FOB FARMERS.

From Farm, Field and Stockman.]
CLOSE all unused gates.
BE sure you dry the seed corn. Do It
now.
CULTIVATE a large crop of small home
pleasures.
Don't let the snow hide rubbish about
your farm.
READ, plan and calculate for next
seasons work.
THE farmer is bigger factor than
the farm in successful farming.
If you use manure to bank up the
house be sure it is through heating.
DON'T sell all the hogs at three cents
and buy back hams at fifteen and
twenty.
THE present available supply of po-
tatoes is estimated to be a little over
half of what it was year ago.
SHOVEL the snow from under the
clothes-line-or better, hang out the
clothes for your wife these wintry days.
WHAT cares vegetation how the ele-
ments of fertility originated so they are

BROAD wheels draw easier on grass
and on mud roads, and do not cut the
fields so badly or wear the roads so rap
idly. Then why not have broad tires?
THERE are pastures in Kentucky
which have never been plowed since
the State was first settled, but the grass
is fed in the most liberal manner and is
thus sustained.
THIS is the best time to paint the i'm
Elements. Clean them well first, then
paint; if you can not afford to buy
white lead, good coat of good linseed
oil will do we'll.
IT is reliably stated that in Ontario,
where they make business of sending
children to agricultural schools, more
than eighty-five per cent of them &C

In getting down hay or straw by Ian

on a hook where there is no risk OF
knocking it over or off. 1t will not take
sixty seconds to put up a hook.
SECRETARY RUsK is convinced that
the present work of the Government in
matters relating to irrigation, is only d
beginning, and that the Government aid
for this purpose will be increased as
the work progresses.
In recent article of President Cham
berlain, in his chronicles of a clay farm
he shows that each dollars worth Of
super-phosphates returned him two dol

A LARGE part of the nitrates which
would be lost were cereal crop grown
is assimilated and retained by root
crop; and when the roots are fed on the
farm, we may return the nitrogen tx

and thus enrich the land for cerea

owned but operated by q woman. The
mine is situated on Willow creek, and
the fortunate proprietress is Mrs. Rob
inson. Although she is soventy-three
years of age She has done all the work
in developing the property herself, car
yying out the ore and waste upon her
Sel. This she has been able to do
from the fact that the shaft is on the
mountain incline and comparatively
easy Of ascent She has been doing this
steadily for two years and appears to
have lost none of the faith with which
she started, II any assay has ever
been made of the ore taken out it re-

Customs That Seem to Be Opposed to the

Customs That Seem to Be Opposed to the
Teachings OF Christianity.
1t is a sad commentary on Christian
community, which takes that distinctive
title from'a religion whose founder is
called the CONSIDER, because his word
plucl1s the sting from death, that it
surrounds death with every circum-
stance OF voc and gloom, writes George
William Curtis, in Harper's Magazine.
The distinctive ministry of the faith
seems to fall at the very point to which
it is especially addressed. The natural
Christian tone at the burial of the dead
would seem to be the cheer that springs
from the thought of immortality
sublime hope, a tender resignation.
The Christian thought in that hour
should instinctively dwell upon the soul,
and not upon the body and the simplest
and most transformations rite of burial
would seem to be the most truly
Christian. But the ostentation of
Christian funerals has become so great
that burial reform associations are
formed, both in this country and in
England, to relieve the poor OF the
painful and needless cost which, from
mistaken respect for the dead, they
will not spare so long as ostentation is
the custom.
