The Fearful Revelations of a Druggist
Concerning the Habits Of the Vic

Tonic.

had often met her, this pale nymph
Of the sidewalk, and oftentimes when
the electric light fell full upon her face
she had seemed SO frail and white that
my imagination had pictured her to be
some ghostly visitant of the great city,
coming back with morbid pleasure to
the haunts of her wretched life IN the
same way as we visit places where we
have wept our bitterest tears. 4
strange vigor seemed to animate that
frail form, for it sped swiftly along.
and often, when l had resolved to fol-
low it, fitted from my sight as II it had
dissolved into the heavy, murlly atZnos-
phere and become very part of the
great city's unwholesome breath, says
a writer in the New York Mercury.
One night the pale nymph suddenly
turned and entered drug store, where
l happened to be acquainted. waited
until she had taken her leave and then
made haste to ask the clerk who she
was.
"An arsenic eater" he replied in a
nonchala0t tone "The name on her
prescription is Mrs. Devere, but no
doubt that is an assumed name. She
comes once a week to renew her pre-
scription, which, by the way, bears the
signature OF one OF our weu-known
physicians.
Yes" continued the drug clerk with
a simulated sigh, there are many such;
they grow winter and winter until
seem to be playing the hollow mockery
Of dispensing a death-dealing drug to
death itself. And then they don't come
any more.
You ask me if don't think am do
ing wrong to sell such a virulent poison
to this woman. Well, possibly so, and
yet by coming TO us she prolongs her
life, for if we refused TO fill the prescrip-
ton she would simply have resource to
some one of the arSenical preparations
advertised in the daily papers. There
are hundreds of 'pick-me-ups' sold in
this city which contain arsenic, and
while it is fact that this poison is
largely used in different parts of the
earth as skin beautifier, yet that is
not what this woman is after. She uses
it as a nerve tonic-it being one of the
strongest known to the medical faculty.
Interested in this woman, are you?
Well, my advice to you is not to let your
imagination encircle her head with
what is called the halo of romance. She
is just plain arsenic eater, which
drug she probably uses to get relief
from some nervous ailment of the ma
ture Of chorea or st. Vitus' dance. If
you could see her in the daytime your
pale nymph of the sidewalk would not
attract you so strongly. Nay, I war
rant you would be repealed by her
heavy, dull eyes, her colorless lips, her
parchnent-like skin, her general look

siderable length, in the Atchisou Cham

cumulation of wealth in few hands
and how TO set rid of its baletul effects
upon the condition of the unfortunate or

his article, which Is too long to publish.
Mr.. Martin seys:

tending down 10 the present time. seems to
be the emulation Of vast wealth in The
hands Of the few. A. the beginning OF the

a millionaire in the United States: the
number WAS rot great st the beginning Of
the civil war; now there are aJ least ten
thousand OF them. and many OF these
possess wealth ranging from ten 10 q hun
bred millions or more.
This statement Is probably true. and
while it is the basis of an argument
against the conditions that make such

at the same time furnishes an argument
In favor Of such conditions. in that they

An Artist Who Couldn't Understand VAST
Ing Money on Telescopes
One OF the foreign artists at present
at work at the fair grounds accepted an
invitation the other day to inspect the
art collection OF Mr.. Charles T. Yerkes,

Topics. This particular artist is by
birth Hollander, and is an ardent adj
mirer of the Dutch school
After inspecting and admiring the
contents Of the art gallery IN the cable
railway magnate's Mich,,@n avenue
mansion, the artist told Mr.. Yerkes OF
a magnificent picture that he knew of
in Amsterdam, the price OF which was
unfortunately beyond the reach of any
one man, but which he could not help
thinking would prove q me- gnihcent al
dition 10 the collection.

are, Mr.. Yerkes," he said. mournfully.
but o, if you cOuld only buy that
work.
Mr.. Yerizes asked the value of the
picture, and the artist, with great deli
cacy, declined 20 tell it TO him in Is
own house, after receiving his hospi-
tally, but said he would let him know
it at future day, On leaving the house
tie American friend in whose company
he had made the visit asked the artist
what the price of this wonderful picture
really was.
"Oh, fortune" was the reply, "sev-
eral fortunes-wsu, say two hundred
thousand francs"
Why, man" said the other, that's
nothing. Yerlzes could buy ten pictures
like it and not feel it. Why, do you
know he hos just given away telescope

amazement, what viii you cray
Americans do next? Fancy spending

ST. LOUIS IN 1898.

In another column will be found
reference to the phe nomenal progress
made bv the city of ST. Louis during the
year 1892, with brief statement OF the
lines of industry in which its success has
been the most pronounced, as well a.
in what markets it most excels. The
financial and commercial growth of this
city will be best understood By refer
ence 10 the official records showing the
number Of buildings erected within the
corporate limits during 1892. There
were upwards of 5.400 buildings so
erected, their cost exceeding $50 900. 900
as compared with 4, 800 in 1891 and 1900
in 1890. The foot frontage built on during
the year was POI 40, equal to double
row of buildings almost twenty miles
long. Few cities in the world are able
to duplicate this extraordinary activity,
the importance of which is the more
obvious when it is remembered that
the new buildings include q twelve
story fire proof hotel which
will cost when completed and equipped,
50, 900 coo, the largest union depot in tie
world: and a new city hall, which will
cost when completed in the neighbor-
hood Of s., 900. 000 The st. Louis bank
cjearings for the year 1892 were by far
the largest in the city's history, and the
shipping and other returns were equally
eloquent on the city's growth as tinan-
cial and commercial metropolis. Tie
magnificent railroad facilities, the uni
formly favorable freight rates, and the
enormous capital invested in manufac-
lures, guarantee to buyers sending their
orders to st. Louis exceptional advan
tageS in the matter of price, assortment

TO CURB BRITISH SWEARING.
An Old Statute Agaisst Profanity Put In
Force In England.

An Old Statute Araisst Profanity Put In
Force In England
Some time ago the suggestion was
made in one of the London newspapers
that society should be formed TO sup
press the growing evil and scandal OF
street profanity. 1t was generally ad.
mitted that English towns were dis
gracefully prominent ia the matter OF
cursing and swearing in public places
and that English street loafers pos
sessed probably the foulest mouths in
all christendom. The proposal came to
nothing for various reasons, one Of
which was that it would be as unpopu-
lar and dangerous to interfere with the
English worlmen's privilege to curse
whenever he felt that way inclined az
to NEEDLE with his right to get drunk.
1t has been tardily discovered that tho
statute book actually contains an act
passed in the reign of George ii. ''for
the suppression of profanity" and the
law was put in force the other day at
Wehbech. The act Is delightfully."- com
prehensive, the only defect being the
absence of 4 schedule of oaths and an
appraisement Of their comparative
wickedness. Penalties arc imposed ac-
cording to tho social position Of offend
ers. The scale is one shilling per oath
when uttered by a laborer. two shil-
lings when the sinner is above labor
er and under the degree of "a gen
tleman, and five shillings when
spoken by anyone above the de-
gree Of a gentleman. The punishment
is applicable whether the ofTense be
committed in the public street or in
mans own house. which scems some
what restrictive of the liberty Of the
subject and opens possibilities Of do
mestic complications. The Wehbech
case, however, was perfectly simple.
The prisoner uttered four wicked words
in the public street. and, being a mere
laborer, was ordered TO pay 4 shilling
per oath and thirteen shillings costs.
