SUICIDE BY AMMONIA.
|1he Tserisie Agony Does Not Prevent Its Use.

No poison brings death with more 'maddening agony than ammonia, Bout that fact does not seem to dis .courage the suicide. The man liar rowitz. who deliberately swallowed fatal dose of the drug in New York recently, is only one of the many who have gone the ammonia route to death in spite of the excrutiating pain. Dr. Blyth has recorded thirty eases of ammonia poisoning in the small London district of which he is health officer; Professor Mitchell mentions twenty-two cases, and four have occurred during the short time pr. Jenkins has been nnected with the coroner's office in New York.
 Cases of slow poisoning from am monia are of constant occurrence
 among men who work in its manu- facture. or even in decomposing substances which give it of in con siderable quantities. Ammonia
 sloSIy and from day to day taken into the system, causes the complexion t, loose its freshness,
 and the skin of men who get heavily impregnated with jt has disagreea- ble blotched and discoloTed appear
 aGCe.
 Taken into the stomach from day to day in even the small quantities used to adulterate food, such as baking powder, it not only injures the complexion but attacks the lin- ing of the stomach, and IS the
 source of much general ill health. The recent rapid inc ease in the use of ammonia for various purposes, and the consequent increase in its manufacture. have made it one I the most easily obtained poisons
 and, although everybody is familiar with it in some form, there is sur prssing amount of ignorance of its dangerous qualities. Its use as an
 adulterant m any food preparation is simply a crime, and as crime
 should be punished.

 citizen and the official representative
 of the United States. As such we

TOO iNoULGENT BY FAR.
The IrrepressibIe Small Boy, the Kind
 Parent and the New Minister.

 Parent and the New Minister.
 "Yes," said Mir Easyman, to Rev. Dr Prudent, the new minister, who was paving his parishioner a friendly visit, you are unquestiunably right. l dc not believe in being over stern with children. Now mine treat me as they would an elder brother or playmate No scampering upstairs when they hear my latchlSey turn in the door. Not much! Make home cheerful-that's my motto."
 A frowsy-haired youth of some six summers appeared on the scene at this juncture, says the New York Herald After eyeing the clergyman critically for moment he broke out with:
 Say, pa, what is jay!"
 An ominous frown settled on the brow of the indulgent parent as he re- plied "A jay, my son, is a rather showy bird having n low, erectile crest of feathers and"
 But, pa, they can fly, can't they?"
 Certainly, my boy. They are noted, too, for their propensity to chatter, and. for instance, to ask foolish questions. :" The frown deepened as the boy went on:
 But how can they fly, pa, without any wi, .,5?"
 My ,ol, I think I heard your ma calling II a few moments ago"
 "Yes, pa, I'm going, only as l heard you tell ma last night that our new min ister was a regular jay, just wanted to come in here to see whether he could fly. Say, mister (to the astonished clergyman), you ain't got any feathers, have you?"
 There was a sudden rush on the part of the indulgent parent, followed by the sudden disappearance of the youth ful inquisitor. Then came series of discordant howls from the hall beyond.
 My dear sir" observed the parent, upon entering the room, while l admit that I am kind and indulgent parent why!'
 At this point the front door was heard to slam violently. The minister had disappeared, and now Mir Easyman is talking about rensing pew in another church.

DISEASES OF THE RICH.

A French Physictan's Book-The Tyranny
 of the Human stomach.
 It is an old maxim that health is the greatest of all riches, and it is a thing that money will often not buy, says a Paris correspondent of the New York Tribune. Indeed, the possession of great wealth is predisposing cause of num- Der of complaints. This is the opinion of Dr. Monin, who has defended it in book just published, entitled "Rich Mems Evils" The list of diseases which escort the rich man is not long one, but it is, if one may call it so, sub stantial one. The possessor of several hundred thousand dollars has the choice between stomach complaints of various sorts, congestions, apoplexies, rheuma- tisims, acute and sub-acute gout, head aches of every degree, affections of the heart, pleurisy, and asthma, liver com plaints, jaundice, roseole (from which Queen Victoria suffers), sleeplessness, nervous exhaustion, besides a number of artificial distempers which are with in the reach of all who can purchase morphine, cocaine and ether.
 Whatever your choice may be you may console yourself by the thought that you suffer in good company. Rheumatic people will remember that Mime. de Sevinge, who was sufferer from it, wore cheerful conntenance and de- lighted her friends with her sparkling wit. The gouty celebrities form bril- liant host: Horace, Leibnitz, Erasmus, Kant, Franklin, Milton q give the names as they occur, not in chrono- logical order), Darwin, Sydenham. As you see, doctors are not exempt from it. Literary people are placed by Dr. Monin in company with millionaires-an asso- citation no doubt flattering to both, but none the less unlocked for. The weight of their purses, however, has nothing to do with this. Hut, like plutocrats, they lead sedentary life, dissipate quan- tity of vital energy and are obliged, on that account, to have a substantial diet. Literary men aud women are, therefore, subject to dyspepsia and gout.
 The manufacturers of a refreshing beverage whose advertisements are known wherever the English lanuage is spoken says: ''Stomach's a master all should dread.' This is Dr. Monin's opinion. If indulged it becomes a sulky and ill-willed companion, and it does so, too, when placed on short commons. An edifying li,'t is that of the diseases affecting the wealthy classes at diff ferent ages. It will be some consola- ton to those who have not received the riches of this world and this will be my excuse for giviog it: First year, icters, erysipelas; second year, croup, infan- tile cholera; third year, whooping cough, measles, gastric fever; fourth year, scarlatina, Ineningitis-only half the numb Der of babies born live to this age; seventh year, humps, angina. laryngitis: tenth year, St. Vitus' dance, typhoid fever; fifteenth year, debility; eighteenth year, headache; .twenty- fifth to thirtieth year, marriage; thir- tieth to thir'y-ffth year, dyspepsia, nervous disorders; thirty-fifth to forty fifth year, inflammation of the lungs, plcurisv; forty-fifth to fifty-fifth year,

NOT BORNE OUT BY FACTS.

The question of cure for drunken ness has engaged for many years the earnest attention of medical men and others, but unfortunately no infallible remedy has vet been suggested that will meet the requirements of every case.
 At recent meeting in Evanston, Ind. of 6 Woman's Christian Temper ance union one of the speakers said in reference to overcoming the drinking habit: "The grace of God is sufficient if man will but unite his will with the will of God" Another one, referring to the bi-chloride of gold cure. as prac- ticed by Dr. Keeley, of Dwight, H., said: "You do rot have to go to Dwight to be cured of the drinking habit"
 There is no doubt that stimulation of the moral forces through religious in- 1uence can do a great deal toward over coming evil habits. Churches and Christian organizations have uplifted many men and women from degrada- tion, quickened their consciences, forti- fled their wills and effected permanent reforms in their characters. But there are some things which Christianity can not door rather, there are some condi- tions under which man can no more unite his will with the will of God" than he can cause water to flow up hill.
 Dlpsomania, which is defined as "an inordinate and irrepressible desire for alcoholic liquor," is one of those condi- tions. We do not mean to say that all hard drinkers are afflicted with dipso- mania. Some of them furnish aggra- vated cases of foolishness, "cussedness" and othe forms of moral depravity. But tl,ere are probably several thousands of cts in this country who are as truly victims of disease as is leper, an ep- ileptic or an opium eater.
 Reputable physicians recognize this fact and attempt to cure dipsomania with drugs that will create a distaste for inroxicants. Many of these attempts have been successful, and all have been undertaken on the assumption that the physical state of the patient made it i'm possible for him to ''unite his will with the will of God" so far as the drinking habit was concerned.
 The Indiana women are doubtless sim cere and earnest in their piety, but they have enunciated theory that is no. borne out by facts.

TOLEDO,S DISGRACE.

The people of Ohio are usually level- headed and sensible, but, according to reports, there are a number of hotel keepers at Toledo, in that state, who show very considerable lack of com mon sense.
 A disgraceful exhibition of race preju- dice recently occurred in that city. The Rev. John Smallwood, highly educated colored clergyman and a pol ished gentleman, was turned away from seven hotels in succession because of his African descent. At some of the hotel offices his application for room was refused in insulting terms. At others he was politely informed that the house could not accommodate him.
 MT. Smallwood has inst returned from attendance at the worlds Sunday school convention in London. In the British capital he had met on terms of equality with some of the most distinguished men of Europe. MT. Gladstone had been impressed with his ability and cul- ture, and had entertained him as guest in his own house. Yet, when he re- turned from monarchical England to re- publican America he was insulted by supercilious hotel clerks, and could not obtain admission into the hotels of a northern city.
 In southern town such display of race intolerance would have been less surprising. That it should have oc- cured in Toledo shows that even in the north there are many individuals who are yet totally "unreconstructed"-per- sons cursed with such bigotry that they cannot see the humanity of the black
