ing anecdote. which occurred between him
and one of his rustic constituents. A mem-
ber of an Odd fellows‘ lodge came one
evening for advice at the usual hour of
consultation. The symptoms were duly
detailed, and the surgeon prescribed a mix-
ture which contained two grains of W
of antimony in eight ounces of water. The
patient on arriving home took a dose of his
medicinehbut was annoyed to find that it
had so little taste. and that moreover it
presented no solid material to be shaken
up. On submitting the bottle to his wife,
she also. on tasting. pronounced it to be
“ nowt but wetter.‘ He then tmkf'counsel
with some of his brethren. who were not
very favorably disposed toward the doctor.
and. yielding to their advice. entered a
complaint to the lodge. In due time the
doctor received from the Secretary a notice
to attend and answer Brother Joues‘s
charge to the effect that he had been sup-
plied with water instead of medicine. In
reply to this notice the surgeon asked the
Secrcmry to intimate to the aggrieved
brother that it would be ncccsqtry to have
the medicine produced in order that he
might have a fair chance of remitting the
charge. “hen the night arrived there was
ugoodly attendance of members. and the
lodge having been formally opened. Jones
was asked to stand forth and prefer his
charge against the doctor, which he did,
alleging thal the bottle produced was given
to him for medicine. and contained nothing
but water. After he had finished his state-
ment the: surgeon proclaimed to the meeting
that if Jones was sincere in his belief that
there was nothing but water in the bottle
he could have no objection to drinking the
contents at one draught. The Chairman
and brethren thought this a reasonable pro-
position. and put it to Jones accordingly.
Jones was evidently not quite prepared for
this crucial test of his belief. but Could see
no way out of it. After a little hesitation
heconsented. Th! contents of the eight—
ounce mixture were transferred to a tour
bler. and he quafi‘cd them off. The doctor
then intimated to the (‘hairman that he
might proc'ccd with any other business
until the medicine had time to take ctIt-et.
After the lapse of about half an IIUIII‘. Jones
began to exhibit signs of internal disturb-
ance. and abasin was brought in for his
convenience. It soon became manifest to
the brethren that there must have been
something more than water in the mixture.
The doctor submitted that he had effectual.

THE PERILS OF CHLORAL.
It is impossible to say too much against
the use of chlonil. which is as fatal and
more terrible in its ultimate l‘.‘S\lllS than
opium. The pangs of the ‘opiuinmater have
been set forth with appalling \‘iiidnmls in
the prose of De \‘llllllt‘l-y. but physicians
:msurc us that the results of ehloml are
more agonizing and deadlier still. One of
the 'lnost eminent of English sui genus has

those who from temperann-nt and flu l‘..xl|‘.l‘x‘

One of tliomost notable examples of the
baneful effects of the chloral habit was the
artist—poet. Dante Gabriel Rossetti. who.
during the latter years of his life. was ac-
custoined to take enormous doses. reaching
a total of nearly 150 grains daily. '
For many years he took chloral regularly.
at first in small quantities. but he gradually
increastal the dose until his power of resist-
ance was gone. His life was darkened by a
power he fought against in vain. llis latter
days were spent in solitude. He became a
recluse nnd n hypochondriac. tilled with
groundless fears for himself. cherishing un-
founded suspicions against his best friends
and admirers.
Unlike opium. there are. \3 a rule. no
unpleasant effects. no reaction following the
use of chloral. It simply produces perfect
sleep. or the best pcssible imitation of
drcamlcss rest. with no headache or sickness
as a reminder that the slumber has been
purchased and the debt must be paid for.
The debt is puidlater, and the interest do-
manded is health, hope, and often life.

but they care nothing for that. Brad and
butter is what they are utter, and théy’ll, do
anything to get it. The Tombs shyster’ .or
the old times was regarded on all side- as
the lowest type of the profession. We have
Tombs shysters still. but they no no longer
the lowest. The lawyers who make a
specialty of divorce m rightfully entitled
tothat rank. and get it. Their plan of
operations is pretty well known. All that
the clienthnstodo is to put the case in
their hands and pay a fee in advance. Most
of the divorce suits go to referees instead of,
being tried in court. If the hearing is not
actually secret it is. in most cases, the next
thing to it. There are no reporters and there
is no audience. The divorce lawyer pre-
sents his case and brings on his swimmers.
Who are the witncmos? Why. in many in-
stances. neither party to the suit ever heard
of them before. They are mumps whom
the divorce lawyer keeps in tow for just
such occasions. Their testimony is a lie
from first to last. The lawyer tells them
beforehand what they must swear to, and
often coaches them to see that. they have
the story straight. They swear to personal
knowledge of things which never occurred.
and to acquaintance with persons they never
saw. If the other side does not appear. as
often happens. because proper notice has
not been given, the sworn lies of the scamps
go unquestioned. The referee may possibly
have suspicious. but he must go by the
“evidence." and there it is. No (me has
appeared to refute it. He reports to the
court that the charges are pmven ; the court
assumes that it is all right and a decree of
divorce is issued. So the way is clear, and
the person getting the decree may go right
off and marry again. Perhaps the other
party to the new marriage is waiting around
the corner. it is all a round-thc-corncr
business.‘und an exceedingly bad business
every way. And much more of it is carried
on in New York than the public supposes.
As the trials are not reported. unless they
contain something svlmatiouul. the public
knows nothing about them. It would be. a
good thing for morals if the divorce lawyers
could be suppn‘sse l. But they probably
can‘t. any more than the quack doctors.
New York now has a vigomus law against
quack doctors. but the tpmcks defy" it amigo

vorce lawyers. no doubt. even with a law
for their suppression on the statute book.

on the ground watching them. or the whole
flock racing in a solid. tleccy. billowy samp-
