WHAT the conscientious Christian
world is going to say to the "two Sains"
at Chicago about chewing gum is still
wrapped in gloom. What is the use of
reforming a cigarette smoker into a gum

A DENVER paper on the prohibition
movement in Georgia says : "It is like
the roll of the surf : it is wt4i nigh irre-
sistable. All but twelve counties in
that state have voted against the grant
ing of liquor licenses. Georgia is a
promising field for druggists.

Sparks just about once a vreek. Sparks ,
it is said , is not feeling very frisky of
late and contemplates commuting his
office for a foreign consulship.
A LAW has been passed by the Ital
ian parliament prohibiting the wearing
of corsets by the ladies beyond a certain
degree of pressure. If congress could
be induced to pass a law of this kind ,
imagine the fury of the strife between
the slaughter house and packing house
democrats , over the appointment of a
corset inspector for Nebraska. We
trust that the law will not be passed for
it would destroy the party in this state.
Journal.
A YOUNG married woman named Jen
nie Woods of Chicago , whose husband
was away in New York , took a notion to
see the elephant in the absence of her
lord. So she got a young man to pilot
lier to an opium joint. She smoked , as
in experiment , the unheard of number
at' ten successive pipes of the deadly
irug. Then she died. The young man
has evaporated. It is doubtful if a wife
ivith no more sense than this one dis
played was of much consequence to her
husband , and the loss to society is not
rrepamble. Journal.
