Some Persons Get Drunk Because Ut ID
Their Privilege.
Even after physical restraint has
'perfods;, many of those who have been
subjected to it resume the habit of get
ting drunk soon after they are set at
liberty. They do this. simply because
they want to. Drunkenness is a mode
of enjoyment for them. They either do
not believe it to be injurious, or, if so
believing, they drink and knowingly
take the consequences. Not long ago q
patient said to me: doctor, you.may
lock me up and surround me by guards
when go out, and you may advise me
as much as you please, and you may
continue this treatment for ten years
or more, and when you stop it and
pass from under your charge will get
drunk. l shall do so because like to
get drunk. ! am free citizen of this
country, and have a right to get drunk
if wish to do So" In this connection
it may be stated that many persons
continue to drink to excess because
they believe they have moral right to

it is an outrage upon their personal lib
erty to subject them to restraint. AS
to moral suasion, the third of our
means of cure, it is mainly successful
with those unfortunate but intelligent
persons who strongly desire to be
cured. 1t is with these that the advice
OF physician in whom they have con-
fidence, the encouragement that he is
able to give them, and his charity toward
their failings which his knowledge of
human nature gives them, prove most
successful. These are the patients to
whose honor we can trust with the ut
most confidence, and these are the ones
who are most generally cured. - DR..

ALL AROUND THE FARM.

DO WITHOUT fences wherever it is pos
sible. A fence is costly luxury, as it
is useless unless kept in repair, but
when it is a harboring place for insects
and vermin of all kinds which find ref
uge in the collections of refuse in the
Orners, it causes the farmer more labor
to repair the damage to the farm than
the advantages gained from the fence.
A CORRESPONDENT of the Maine
Farmer cures collie in sheep by dissolv-
ing two tablespoonful of epson salts
in about half pint of warm water, and
adding one teaspoonful of essence of
peppermint Open the sleeps mouth
and insert small funnel in it. A boy
can pour the salts while the sheep is
held. In about two hours the sheep
will be all right.
Ir is not advisable to feed young pigs
on fattening food, nor should they be
kept in a fat condition. The pig should
be kept growing, and it is time enough
to fatten him after the frame has been
produced. Some farmers keep their
pigs fat all the year, which not only
afhicts them, especially in summer, but
too much fat retards growth. A clover
pasture is better than feeding largely
on grain.
BEET sugar is receiving more atten-
ton every year. Clay soil gives the
highest percentage of sugar. The
average yield of sugar from beets is
about fourteen per cent, and over
twenty tons of beets can be grown on
an acre, the cost of which, for seed,
labor, ETC., is about $40. Over 1000
pounds of sugar can be realized from
an acre, but this yield depends on the
soil, the fertilizers used and the season.
THERE is always a market for some
thing better than the market affords.
BY producing only the best quality of
meat, butter, milk or fruit, plenty of
room will be found for it, even in a
crowded market. The surplus remain
ing unsold is that which is inferior. BY
carefully asserting all articles that can
be examined and ''culled,'' less trans
portation costs wild result and the
prices attained will be much larger

TOLEDO, O., Dec. 28.-A sensation
has been created by the discovery that a
large number of citizens have been
stealing the city's natural gas. The
new pumps have been working for sew
eral weeks and the trustees could not
imagine why the supply did not give
better satisfaction. They started an in
vestigation, which resulted In finding
that several large manufacturing firms
and numerous private families had Sc
cretly connected their burners to tbs

much as 500 families would need. Two

MILWAUKEE, Dec. 28.-At 2 q. m. fire
was discovered in the northwest corner
of the Milwaukee Street Railway com.
pany's shops, which destroyed the entire
plant, entailing less of 100000. Like
other terrible fires with which Milwau-
kee has been visited during the past sew
enty-two hours, this one is apparently of
incendiary origin. The night watchman
who first discovered the fire says that it
started in car nearest the doorway of
the building. His story is that he was
standing near the car when suddenly he
was startled by loud explosion and in
less than five minutes the whole build
ing was ablaze. The mayor has issued
proclamation offering $500 reward for
evidence that will lead to the detection
of the incendiaries.

Senator Hill, Speaker Crisp, Senator

other democratic leaders have come out
fat-footed against the Washburn anti

it harder than ever. Mr.. Cleveland is
also against the bill; and will not sign it
if it ever reaches him. Apparently
there is no hopes of the bill passing
unless it is forced through congress at
an early date.
Democrats from Minnesota say that
the milling syndicate furnfshsd money

Congressman Hall, and this has caused
some feeling among the parties who
were formerly friendly to the bill.
