ABSORB THE POISON
PHYSICIAN TELLS OF QUALITIES
 OF "MADsToNEs."
New Clay Pipe, Easily ProcurabIe, as Good as Any--Aii Worthless When Venom Has Entered the
 Circulation.

Physicians are often asked whether there really is any virtue in what are called madstones. One of them, writ. ing in the Medical Brief. declares that these stones are of value. but they would be of more value if their limita. tions were understood.
 There is no particular variety of stone or substance which may be designated exclusively as the mad stone" he says. T have seen many of them, so-called, and no two were of exactly the same composition, geologi. cally considered.
 Madstones act on the same princi- pie that a plotting paper does when absorbing ink, and there Is nothing that makes better one than baked pipe clay. A new clap pipe, procura ble for one cent at nearly any store where tobacco is sold, can not be ex- celled by any maidstone, no matter how great it's reputation.
 The action can be clearly demon strated by placing a common dry red brick in contact with the margin of puddle of water and noticing what capillary attraction will accomplish. Therefore, to be efficient, the only necessity is for the stone to be porous and have strong adhesive and absorb. ent qualities. Nothing mysterious about It.
 T have seen several that appear to be coHcretions, either vesical, renal oS biiiary and were found in the bladder, kidney or liver of some animal--those taken from the deer, supposed to be the best.
 When a person is bitten by rep tile or dog supposed to be mad and the porous stone applied to the wound, the plotting paper action begins, and the blood, saliva from the mouth of the animal and whatever poison these fluids contain will naturally, by capil. lary attraction, be absorbed by and into the substance applied. no matter what name you may give it.
 The saying that if a stone sticks the wound is poisonous, and if it does not take hold there is no venom pres. cIt, lS unil uC. II tuc StOHt IiCdh and dry it will adhere when moisture is within reach till it becomes satura- ted.
 For instance, new red brick will absorb one pint of water. After the venom has been taken into the circu- lation the maidstone is worthless; but as the victim it usually filled with whisky or alcohol at the same time the stone is being used the spirits may counteract the effect of the poison.
 q know of stone which has a wide reputation, and makes good living for the family owning it. They never let It go out of their sight, and when the victim can not be taken to the stono one member of the family can be hired to take the stone to the victim. In addition to travelling ex' penses they charge s5 for the applica. iion and s2 extra for each hour that the stone sticks. ~ "Thls stone Is busy a large part of l the time. Not long since the stone held to mans leg for over one hun | ired hours, yet the man died. His | life could have been saved If depend. ence had not been placed entirely in I the stone"

Birds and Consumption.

Wilson. the keeper of the birds, Is left for Colorado. One lung gone. He ain't the first"
 The ZOO attendant relighted the stump of his cigar and sighed.
 Birds give men consumption he said. i've seen it proved. There was Jenkins in Frisco, Black in New York. and now there's Wilson here. Why. I wouldn't keep that there bird house for twenty week.
 Its a bad thing to have birds at your home, too. Parrots is bad; ca naries is worse. As for big aviaries of IS or 20 birds, why, you might as well come here and take George Wilson's job.

Telling the Truth.

A saloon keeper of Washtucna Wash, named Mustard. is re. ported to be using a unique scheme for advertising his busi. ness, incidently telling some straight truths on his business cards which he distributes freely to his customers and friends. On one side is his name and business address, on the other he has printed the following:
 Friends and neigh bors:
 VI am grateful for past favors, and have supplied my store with fine line of choice wines and liquors. Allow me to inform you that 1 shall continue to make drunkards, paupers and beggars for the sober, industrious part of the community to support. My liquors will excite riot, robbery and bloodshed.
 "Fhey will diminish your com. forts, increase your expenses and shorten fife. l shall confidently recommend them as sure to multi pity fatal accidents and incurable diseases.
 They will deprive some of life, others of reason, and all of peace. They will make fathers feuds, wives widows, children orphans, and all poor. l will train your sons in infdelity, dis sipation, ignorance, lewdness and every other vice. 1 will thus 'ac- commodate the public, 1t may be at the loss of my never dying soul. But 1 have a family to support-the business pays-and the public encourages it.
 II have paid my license and the traffic is lawful, and if l don't sell it, somebody else will. know the bible says Thou shalt not kill No druukard shall enter the kingdom of heaven, aud I do not expect drunkard maker to fare any better, but l want an easy living and have resolved to gather tre wages of iniquity and fatteu on the ruin of my species.
 "Shoald you doubt my ability, I refer you to tue pawn shops, the poor house, the police court, the hospital, the penitentlary and the gallows, where you will hnd many of my best customers have gone. A sight of them will con vince you that l do what say The Commercial Union.
