Scythe.
Thousands Whose Situations
Are Scarcely Less Terrible
May Easily and Readily Find
Help.

A man lies fiat on his back, bound so that
he cannot move an inch. He is in dun
econ, at first dark as well, but in few min
utcs light in the ceiling, far up, shows
mechanical figure of Time with his scythe.
The figure dcscends slowly, the scythe
swings, and the prisoner realizes that unless
some unexpected help should come, he will
be slowly cut to pieces. What followed is
told by Edgar Allen Poe in the fantastic
story called The Pit and the Pendulum"
The man awaiting the approach Of o
dreadful death is type of large class of un-
fortunatcs who, entangled in the strangling
coils of an octopus, have lost all hope offree-
dom. This monster is Morphine. Perhaps
the victim is yet reveling in that glorious
state of exhilaration which follows the first
use of the drug. If so. like the man in Poe's
story, he has not noticed the light in the cell
ing and is unaware of his danger. Maybe
the disease has progressed SO far that the
sufferer notices weakness of the heart &C
ton, that the general health is feeble, the
body poorly nourished, the sight double.
This is soon followed by peculiar witch
ing of the muscles, a numbness of the hands
and feet, and the utter collapse of the

DON'TS FOR E VERY DAT.

Don't give elaborate dinners when
you have to strain point. One good
rule is infallible for wel.-regulated
homes. Let each meal, even if a
simple. one, have dishes Of well-cooked
food, good in quality, and rich in
flavor-so for the guest who is invited
late the extra plate need be the only
addition.
Don't fail to give the caller who
comes from afar cup Of good tea
with cracker or thin slice of bread
and butter. True hospitality shows
itself often in a simple rejection.
Don't talk continually about your
husband-what he likes and what he
doesn't like; never discuss family mat
tiers. In fact, they are Of no interest
to anybody, and particularly to other
women, who are engrossed with their
own.
Don't, when writing letter, cross
and recrcss the pages; dancing up
and down OF words which the reader
tries in vain to decipher. Number
your sheets of letter paper; that is, if
the letter is long one, clearly and
distinctly, so that the message to te
read proves a pleasure instead of a
worry.
Don't condemn anybody on someLod.
else's hearsay. Judge for yourself, and
never rass judgment un'il you are
fully certain of the case as it stands,
and then. take good view Of the
subject as possible. Charity is the
backbone of good form.
Don't fail to acknowledge an invi-
tation as soon as received. A tardy
response is sometimes objectionable.
Like in the answering of personal
letters, Jew lines will often cover
questions asked and desires expressed.
Don't fail to inclose stamped en-
velope when an answer to business
letter is required. In all such mat
tiers it is necessary, but not i'll private
correspondence.
Don't fail in your duties as guest.
they are many, and tie visitor who
wishes to be success should follow
rules which are easily recognized.
Don't, when visiting, take the hosts
chair, monopolize his desk, usurp his
morning paper and keep up contin-
ual chatter as soon as he makes his
appearance. Busy men at the end of
the day like quiet; and the polite visi-
tor knows just when to speak and not
to speak.
Don't object to pleasures given you
during the visit.
Don t be late at meals or come dow II
when the meal is nearly finished.
Don t correct the children of your
