GRAVE charge has
been brought
against physicians,
a charge so grave
that one would be
loath to believe It
true If It were <taot
for the fart that It
has been made by
u man who Is him
self a famous phy
sician and special
ist, and who ofTers in proof of Ills ter
rible statement an array of statistics
which certainly sei ms to he conclusive,
says the New York Herald.
When Aubert was arrested In Paris
the other day on the charge of assas
sinating the young philatelist, Dela
haeff. It soon became apparent that he
was a confirmed morphine fiend. Dur
ing his trial he suffered agonies for
lack of the deadly drug and at last the
public prosecutor, fearing that ho
would utterly collapse, Instructed a
physician to administer a timely In
jection. This in Itself, the prisoner be
ing on trial, was u remarkable proceed
ing, but what surprised the public
more was the furl that a poverty-strick
en fellow like Aubert should have be
come addicted to the use of such an
•xpensive drug as morphine. Hitherto
the popular opinion has been that only
the comparatively well-to-do could af
ford a luxury of tills kind, hut now
this opinion has been shown to he base
less.
The question, then, which the French
people are asking is: How are we to
acount for this strange epidemic, which
1s evidently spreading among all
classes of society? To this question a
startling reply has been given by this
eminent French specialist und physi
cian. Here is what he says:
"I do not desire my name to be men
tioned,” he began, "because what I have
to say is not very (tattering to a cer
tain number of my colleagues, and,
while I have nothing to conceal, l have
neither the time nor the Inclination to
take part in any paper war on the sub
ject."
It may be stated here that tills spe
cialist is one of the best-known living
authorities on nervous diseases.
“The mania for morphine,” he con
tinued, “Is growing daily among all
classes. .Statistics on the subject are
not easily obtainable, because morphine
tfieuds are very crafty and because no
exterior symptoms condemn them in
public, as Is the case with drunkards
And epileptics. From what many drug
gists and physicians have told me,
(however, I estimate that there are not
teas than SO,000 persons in Paris who
•isc morphine secretly and almost con
stantly. Most of these who belong to
the army of degenrates are women;
indeed, 1 should put their number at
not less than 00,000.
“More instructive, however, than this
general statement are the following
statistics, which have been carefully
(umplied and which show how the vice
has spread among persons of the vari
ous professions. Here is a table of
200 morphine fiends who belong to
twenty-two dil**:-ent professions or
trades. You will see ami this is the
most startling point- -that the first
rank on the llsi is occupied by physi
cians and their wives, the number of
victims among them being sixty-nine.
In the second rank we find army offl
'VI n HUM I IK II III' llUUil" { U1
victims among them bc.ng twenty; in
the third, druggists and their families,
and in the fourth, workingmen and
•worklngwomen, the number of victims
among them being eight m. Among
nieaibers of the other professions
namely, college professors, magistrates,
literary men, artists and others the
number of victims varies from two to
ten.
‘'Now the amazing fact Is that phy
sicians. who from their knowledge of
the danger ought to lie most of all be
yond the reach of contamination,
shoo Id actually he ut the head of the
list of uioiphtne heuds. To many the
reason will seem obvtou*. Their ex
plant stum is that physicians become ad
dieted to the drug through ••■artness
and through their OUgust with ihe
must ungrateful of all professions. In

RUBBER TEETH NOW.
A New Jerk Uriel.t Has Invented a
New i’rorrx.
An entirely new thing in teeth has
been Invented which places artificial
masticators within the reach of the
masses, says the New York World.
The inventor and manufacturer is a
well-known New York dentist, who
cays that his new process will enable
him to make complete sets of excel
lent teeth for Jl.50 or $2 and still reap
a satisfactory profit. The invention U
a departure front anything heretofore
Introduced in modern dentistry. It
consists of a complete artificial set of
teeth made entirely of rubber, the base
or plate and the teeth being formed
Integrally. In their manufacture nn
ingenious method is employed which
not only insures a correct formation
of the artificial masticators, whereby
they are made to closely resemble na
ture's product, but also simplifies the
process of what is called "setting the
teeth up.” A hollow, flexible metallic
matrix, which both internally and ex
ternally reproduces the formation of
the natural teeth, is made, which when
filled with rubber and vulcanized pro
duces a perfectly formed set of teeth.
One of the greatest obstacles to be over
come was the shading of the rubber
teeth, but this the Inventor has accom
plished by moans of a chemical-bleach
ing process. Another but less satis
factory process of shading is by the ad
mixture of different colored rubbers.
From a sanitary standpoint the rubber
teeth are perfect, there bring no Joints,
as in all other forms of artificial den
tures in which the secretions of the
mouth may find lodgment. A more ex
pensive form of the new teeth is that
in which the masticating surfaces are
capped with a continuous metallic tar
...kl. U ... ...I. *1. . ..U
rally indestructible and unbreakable.
Gold, sliver, platinum and aluminum
ha\e been used for making crowns.
One of tlie greatest advantages of the
rubber teeth, aside from their cheap
ness, is their extreme lightness. They
weigh less ilian half as much as any
other form of denture.
PLUM GUFF FROM CHEMISTS.

Me Qulncey tells the story somewhere
of a party of Englishmen who, finding
themselves in Paris on Christmas day
ornl being bound lo have plum pudding
for dinner, were unable to Hud a cook
able to prepare the dish in orthodox
fashion, says tile New York Herald.
Conferences with several distinguished
chefs disclosed nothing but the most
astounding Gallic ignorance of the
British national dish. This was, of
course, before lire days of tl*s "petite
vltesse," which brought across the
channel so opportunely for Taffy and
Little Billee and the Laird their Christ
mas dinner, so something had to be
done. One of the Englishmen hap
pened to be a doctor and also an ama
teur cook. Hfe had in his possession a
recipe for plum pudding, warranted
orthodox. This, with some labor and
doubting much of his ultimate success,
he reduced to the terms of a prescrip
tion and sent to an apothecary. "Les
trios Angliches" Hum sat down to din
ner and awaited results. Sure enough,
at the proper stage of the feast, when
the plum pudding was due, entered the
apothecary, in black silk stockings and
small clothes, according to the < ustom
of the day, and wearing a sword. Be
hind him came his assistant, bearing
aloft the “prescription.” It was per
fect in every detail, even to the blazing
halo of brandy, li related that when
the man of drugs realized the joke
that had been played upon him lie was
for putting his sword to other than or
namental uses But one taste of hi,

friends. What the terms of this pie
strlptlon or recipe actually were I ilo
not know. Very likely the same has
hrcn prlnteil often. There are tunny
formulas for a perfect plum pudding,
hut all are alike in the essentials. The
one Ingredient which U nine qua non
Is a Christmas appetite and a .ivor of
"home.'" This may he found or tuay
be found lacking in any dime.

, Zerubbabel was
the splendid man
called to rebuild
* the destroyed Tem
ple at Jerusalem. Stone for the building
had been quarried, and the trowel hail
rung at the laying of the corner-stone, ]
and all went well, when the Cutbaeuns
offered to help In the work. 1 hey
were a bad lot of people, and Zcrub
babel declined their help, and then tho
trouble began The Cuthaeans prej
udiced the Secretary of the Treasury
against Zernbbabel, so that the wages j
of the carpenters anti masons could ^
not be paid, and the heavy cedar tim
bers which had been dragged from |
Mount Lebanon to the Mediterranean i
and floated in rafts from Beyrout to
Joppa, and were to he drawn by ox
team from Joppa to Jerusalem, had
halted, and as ti result of the work of
those Jealous Cuthaeans for sixteen
years the building of the Temple was
stopped. But after sixteen years, Ze
rubabbel, the mighty soul, got a new
call from Clod to go ahead with the
Temple building, and the Angel of the
l,or(l in substance suiu ■
piled up obstacles In the way of Ze
rubbabel until they have become as a
mountain, height above height, crag
above crag; but it shall oil be thun
dered down and made flat and smooth
as the floor of a house. ‘Who art thou,
0 great mountain? before Zerubbabel
thou shalt become a plain.' ”
Well, the Cuthaeans are not all
dead yet. They are busy In every
neighborhood and every city and
every nation of every age, heaping ob
stacles in the way of the cause of God
They have piled up hindrances above
hindrances until they have become a
hill, and the hill has become a moun
tain, and tic mountain has become an
Alp, and there It stands, right in the
way of all movements for the world s
salvation. Home people are so dis
couraged about tlie height and breadth
of tills mountain in front of them that ;
they have done nothing for sixteen
years and many of those who are at ;
work trying to do something toward
removing the mountain toil in such a
way that 1 can see they have not much
faith that the mountain of hindrances
will ever be removed. They feel they
must do their duty, but they feel all
the time- 1 can hear It In their pray
ers and exhortations that they are
striking their pickaxes and shovels
into the side of the Rocky Mountains.
If the good Lord will help me while
1 preach I will give you the names of
some of the high mountains which are
really In the way, and then show you
that those mountains are to be pros
trated, torn down, ground up, leveled,
put out of sight forever. "Who art
thou, O great mountain? before Ze
rubbabel than shalt become a plain.”
First, there is the Mountain of
Prejudice, as long as a range of the
Pyrenees. Prejudice against the ldibie
as a dull book, an inconsistent book,
a cruel book, uu unclean bool;, and in
every wav an unfit leak. The most of
them lia\t never read it. The> think
the strata of ill rocks contradict the
account in Clenc: The poor souls

and the hands of the man and woman
are stretched up toward the tree as if
to pluck the fruit. Thus the Uibie
s'ory of the Pail is confirmed.
In a museum at Constantinople you
see a piece of the wall that, once in
the ancient Temple of Jerusalem sep
nrated ihe court of tin* Gentiles and
the court of tlie Israelite?, to which
Paul refers when he says of Christ,
"He is our peace, who hath broken
down the middle wall of partition be
tween us." On tablets recently (11*
ovei-ed have been found the names of
prominent men of the Hitdc. spelled a
little different, according to the de
mand.; of ancient language. "Adatn.i"
for Adam, "Abramn" for Abraham.
"Ablu" for Abel, and so on. Twenty
two f( (d under ground has been found
a seal inscribed with the words "Ilug
gul, eon of Bbebaniah,” thousands of
years ago cut, showing that the Pro
phet lluggal, wlio wrote a part of the
llitde, was not a myth. The Royal
Engineers have found, eighty feet be
low the surface of the ground at Jeru
salem. Phoenician pottery and hewn
stones with Inscriptions, showing thut
they were furnished by Hiram, King
of Tyre, just, us the Hible says they
were. The great names of Bible his
tory, that many suppose are names of
Imaginary being*, are found cut Into
imperishable stones which have within
a few yearn been rolled up from their
entombment of ages, such us Sen
nacherib and Tlglath Plleser. On the
edge of a bronzed step, and on burned
brick lias beeu found the name of Ne
buchadnezzar. Henry Rawllnson and
Oppert and lllncks, and Palestine ex
ploration societies, and Asyrlologlsts,
and Egyptologists, have rolled another
Bible up from the depths of the earth,
and lo! It corresponds exactly will) our
Bible, the rock Bible Just like the
printed Bible, inscriptions on cylinders
and brick-work cut thirty-eight hun
dred years before Christ testifying to
the truth of what we mail eighteen
hundred and ninety-seven year* after
Christ. The story of the Tower of
Babel has been confirmed by the fact
that recently at Babel an oblong pile
of brick one hundred and ten feet high
evidences the remains of a fallen tower.
In the Inspired Book of Ezra we read
of the great and noble Asnepper, u
name that meant nothing especial, un
til recently,In prled-ttp Egyptlanseulp
ture, we have the story there told of
him as a great hunter as well as a
great warrior. What I say now Is
news to those prejudiced against the
Bible, They are so far behind the
times that they know not that the
(Jld Book is being proved true by the
prying eye of tbe antiquarian and the
ringing hammer of the archaeologist
and the plunging crowbar of the geolo
gist. No more Is Infidelity character
ized by its blasphemy than by Its Ig
norance, but oh! what a high moun
tain of prejudice against the Bible,
against Christianity, against churches,
against all evangelizing enterprises a
mountain that casts Its long, black
shadows over this continent and over
all continents. Geographers tell us
that Mount Everest Is the highest
mountain in the world. Oh, no! The
mountain of prejudice against. Chris
tianity is higher than the highest
crags that dare the lightnings of
heaven. Before our Zerubbabel can it
ever become a plain?
Yonder also is the Mountain of
Crime, with Its strata of fraud, ami
malpractice, and malfeasance, and
blackmail, and burglary, and piracy,
and embezzlement, and libertinism,
and theft, all its heights manned with

Sometimes a general begins a battle
before he Is ready, because the enemy
forces It on him. The general says,
"The enemy are pushing us, and so I
open buttle. We are not sufficient to
cope with them, but I hope the re
serve forces will cornu up in time.”
The battle rages, and the general looks
through his field glass at the troops,
hut ever and anon he sweeps his field
glass backward and upward toward the
hill, to see if the reserve forces are
coming. "Hard pushed are we!” «ay3
the general. “I do wish those rein
forcements would come up," After
awiille the columns of the advancing
cavalry are eaen tossing on the ridge
of the hill, and then the Hash of swords,
and then the long lines of mounted
troops, their horses in full gallop, and
the general says, "All Is well. Hold

sergeants ride along the lines and cheer
the inen and tell them reinforcements
are coming.” And now the rumbling of
the batteries and gun-carriages Is dis
tinctly heard, and soon they are In
line, and at the llrst roar of the newly
arrived artillery the enemy, a little
while before eo Jubilant, fall hack in
wild retreat, their way strewn with
canteens and knap tacks and ammuni
tion, that the defeated may he unhind
ered in their flight. That Is just the
way now. in this great battle against
Bin and crime and moral death the ene
my seem too much for us. More giog
niiops than hurcheg. More had men
than good men. and they come up with
bravado and the force of great num
bers. Tlu*y have opened battle upon
us before we are, In our own strength,
ready to meet them, and great are the
discouragements. lJut steady, there!
Hold on! Reinforcements are coming.
Through the glass of inspiration I
look, and .see the Hash of the sword of
"him who hath on his vesture and on
ills thigh a name written King of
kings and Lord of lords.” All heaven
is on our side and is coming to the
rescue. I hear the rumbling of the
King’s artillery, louder than any thun
der that ever shook the earth, and with
every roll of the ponderous wheels our
courage augments, and when these re
inforcements from heaven get into
line with the forces of God already on
earth, all the armies of unrighteous
ness will see that their hour of doom
has come, and will waver and fall back
ind take Hlght and nothing he left of
them save here and there, strewn by
the wayside, an agnostic’s pen or a
broken decanter or a torn playbill of
a debasing amusement or a blasphem
ous paragraph, or a leper’; scale, or a
dragon's tooth, to show tcey ever ex
isted. Let there be cheering all along
the lines of Christian wor'ters, over
the fact that wliat tin- shovels fail to
