A discovery, the value Of which to
the medical world cannot be estimat-
ed, has just been made known by q
New York physician, announces the
Chicago Herald. It is ali antidote for
morphine poisoning, and, judging BY
the result of an experiment conducted
be fore q number of New York doctors,
it is complete. The discoverer made
the experiment on himself, much,
however. against the protests of his
fellow physicians, who we're less san
guine Of its powers. Convinced OF the
value of his discovery, Or. Moor, the
discoyerer, swallowed three grains OF
morphine, sufficient quantity to kill
the most robust adult, following II
with his nntidote. The usual effects
OF morphine poisoning. languor, sleep,
death, did not appear. Instead DR..
Moor was the most cheerful and en-
thusiastic participant in the discussion
which followed his attempt to commit
suicide" The antidote is tho perman

A recent monograph on the subject
of Geographical Concentration in
American Agriculture" written by
John Hyde, and read before the Inter-
national Statistical Institute, gives
some curious facts about the cultiva-
tlon of hops in this country. In lS49
the total production of hops in the
United States was 1928, SOP pounds,
36. II per cent. of which was produced
in New York, and 1923 per cent. in
Massachusetts and New Hampshire.
Forty years later the production had
increased to 6,546,37S pounds, New
York contributing S1.4S per cent. Of
the total. In 1890 the hop production
OF the country was almost revolution
lied. New York still contained 03
per cent. of the total acreage devoted
to hops, but her yield was only ALI
. per cent. Of the total production. The
explanation Of this phenomenal change
is the remarkable productiveness Of
the hop lands Of the Pacific Coast
States, the yield per acre, according
to Mr.. Hyde, being nearly three times
as great as that Of the hop lands Of thu
State of New York. The next ter
years will produce a still greater
change. The census Of 1000 will prob
ably show he Pacific Coast producing
the major part Of the hops consumed
in the United States. If they do th'
production must be enormous, for M
industry in this country is CROWNS
more rapidly than the brewing Of beer
for which supply Of good hops is in
iispensable.

And the dazzling dawn Of youth,
when fancy paints the boundless blue
With promises OF glorious hue,
And the world seems walled with truth
Sunlight and the noontide high
And the wandering ways OF men y,
In search OF pleasure far and nigh,
They know not where its valleys lie
Nor how, nor why, nor when
Sunlight and tho evening gallo
And the dull twilight OF age;
The eyes grow dim, the pulses TAIL,
While mournfully the damp winds wal

Though dark and drear the earth below
No pain OF life his soul shall know,
His sins are all forgiven!
