OPIUM CIGARS. fhe Enervating Drug in 2 New Form for Those Who Smoke It, Brow: the San Francizco Ca. ‘There are few persons outside of those in po- Nee circles and dealers in articles consumed by opium users that are aware how wide-spread Js the use of this npxious drug in San Francisco. Druggists cau tell of the numerous calls for it in liquid and powdered forms, and the police have only a partial knowledze of the nunber of Places where opiuin smoking is surreptitiously earried on. Cigarettes impregnated with the fumes of the drug have long been sold, and in this way the habit of oplum-smoking has often been unconsciously acquired. If the several forms meationed in whieh the drag is made to supply the demand were not enough, another and more _ insinnating, at the same time as Innocent in appear- azeeasany, has been introduced. Probably some of tiie readers of this item haye recently seen smit!l ily-made boxes an inch or an inch e by two inches long filled with ars—toy cigars they look tike tter made than the larger article.

It is what is known as ‘the Hargis crowd.” Thomas H. Hargis is a singular man. He never tastes strong drink, he isa church member and a fam- ily man, and yet he has a powerful hold on the popular heart. He was a bootblack at a moun- tain inn, and studied his law books, with the aid of a tallow candle, after his day’s work was done. He was a desperately brave soldier on the confederate side, and when he came back from the war the only thing he had in his pockets was a captain’s commission. He drifted into politics, and has never been defeated. His power asan organizer Is recognized as invincible in this state. Although elected to the highest ju- dicial position in the state his fingers still itch to pull the wires. Holding in his one hand the su- preme judgeship of the state, he wields with h cratic party in Kentucky. He has made and unmade mountain politicians fu Ts, and lias gathered around hun the shrewdest and most progressive poli- ticians in the state. ‘There were no less than 21 in the last legislature who epenly pro- claimed themselves Harzis men. His trial for ling court records, ich came off here a few years ago, showed him to be a man of unbounded audacity and courage. The trial lasted 14 weeks, and he was prosecuted and defended by tie beet legal talent in the State. His cross-examination lasted ten days, and theve was not a single contradiction in it. He put one of his lawyers on the supreme bench, sent another to the legislature, made a third chair- man of the last state convention, which nomi- nated a bosom friend and a stalwart Hargis man tgan office which him £30,000 a year. How hé stands in the governor’s race 1s unknown, and the politicians are eagerly asking each other what he means by his reticence. It is more than suspeeted that he some shrewd object in view. A notable thing in connection with his silence Is the fact that many of his warm friends will come to the convention and come unin- structed. ——___+e.______ Heat from the Sun. iam C. Wyckoff, in Harper's Muguzine for Jane. The Mount Whitney observations show the sun to be hotter than was supposed. The heat received at the earth’s surface is probably more by one-half than was estimated by Herschel and Pouiliet, and even materially exceeds the values assigned by more recent investigators. It uld in one year melt a crust of ice over the whole sunward half of the earth six hundred feet thick. This is, of couse, a statement in very round numb The sclentific phrase would be that the sun’s vertical enerzy could raise the temperature of one gram of distilled water three degrees Centigrade per minute for ch centimeter of the earth’s surface nominally exposed. Having supplied us with an increased amount of heat, the Mount Whitney experiments also favor us with new figures of intenser cold. The estimates of Herschel and Pouillet made the ture of space 224° below the zero of it. The new results carry it down to the calculations tor the absolute zero, p of all heat, say minus 459° F. To ientific mind the distinction between such far-down temperatures is not unlike that between the pains of rheumatism and those of gout—the first being as from a thumbscrew ed to the last point of human endurance, the gout giving one tura more.

The reason given is he glasses fit my eyes better than any apectacles I could find.” Some foolish young Jadies and gentlemen adopt eye-ziasses because they think it gives them a distinzue appear- | ance.

With this class t -alass is of no earthly use, ex- cept as a means of inturing the eve.

There will be ne mistake. A sane man needs a single eye- glass abou! as much a asatramp needs a As a few “men about town” wear the single eye-glass and a few actors wear them on the stage, they have obtained a certain amount of popularity, mainly among the classes men- tioned. “The idiots include the “dudes.” Se popular have eve glasses become awong those who are compelled to wear glasses to ald defectite sizht that the use of spectacles 4s confined mainly to elderly people and to boys and girls. The fact that young children who are troubled with affections of the eyes invaria- ably wear spectacles is known to every observing man. The fact carries with it a lesson. That is that the child does what the oculist tells it or its parents to do. The person of maturer years, uniess he or she ts blessed with an unusual quantity of common sense, doesn't follow In- structions. He or the cenerally disregards orders and wears the eye-zl: s instead of spectacles. Fashien’s decrees that the former are the more stylish overrule advice of oculist or physician. The advice is given because the spectacle fe very much better in every way for the person Silicted with any disease of the eye. They are ¢asier to wear and do not injure the nose in any Way, which the pinching of the eve-giass frame @oes sometimes. The frame of the spectacle is desirable because it holds the glass firmly in its place. The eye-giass isin a constant state of ‘Barest. As a result. particularly where the glase is either a double convex or double con- uve ieus, the maznifying power is constantly varsing. The variation Is slight, to be sure, put Mt exists toa sufficient degree to cause injury tothe eye. That is one of the reasons why ople who wear eye-glasses find it nec » purchase new glasses of constantly increasing power. They generally ascribe the result to old ze.

Now to apply the ilustration to heat-bearingrays enter- ing ‘our atmosphere, we may suppose that nearly all reach the’ soil through radiation; hat ninety per cent go he regular exit’ =~ of “convection nine per cent squeeze back through the turn- stile by which they entered—“radiation;” and ne per cent elim out through the chimney of conduction.” It follows that by merely re; latins the turnstiles, by modifying this capacity for selecting and holding rays of certain wave- lengths, atmospheres could be constructed which would keep the planet Mercury cool, or the far-off Neptune comfortably warm. Here Is ahint for romancers who wish to plant thelr dramatis persone in some other world. The Allegheny and Mount Whitney observa- tions firmly establish the fact that the sun is blue. The particular shade of color which it has, if viewed without intervening atmosphere, may be laid down as that on the border of the’ blue near the green, about where the line F appears the spectrum. Sad to say, this is not an it is more like that referred to puthey’s poems: ‘ou could almost smell brimstone, their breath was so blue, for he painted the devils wl in one of S Breathe Through the Nose Alone. From the Toledo Journal. Much has been written, and very properly, too, about the necessity of sufficient ventilation In the bed-chamber, sitting-room and shop, and | very little of the need of pertect nose ventila- tion; and yet the latter, always and persistently active, has a more marked influence on the health than the former. Man Ina savage state and all*the lower an- imals breathe through the nose in repose or sleep; in fact, some animals cannot breathe through the mouth. Civilized man, while he may rejoice that he has surpassed his savage brother inthe nobler things of earth, can well envy him his treedom from lung and throat dis- eases and impaired voice and hearing, which are so often due to the vicious habit of breathing through the mouth. The nose is designed, in the paeres! of na- tare, to prepare the inspired air for the lungs as it passes through the winding nasal canal and pharynx of warming it, charging it with mois- ture and filtering or purifying it from foreign substances. The nose is also the organ of the sense of the smell, and has a direct influence on the voice, playing the same part the curves ot the cornet does in enriching the tones; it 1s also closely associated with the sense of hearing. The effect of mouth breathing is to bring the cold, dry, dusty alr directly in contact with the delicate nucus membrane of the air after producing irritation, which results in sore throat, swollen tonsil, hoarseness and long troubles. Snoring, the pleasant little trick of causing the soft palate to vibrate. can only be accomplished by breathing through the mouth. Bore throat, hoarsenes, lung troubles, deaf- ness, snoring and impaired voice, flow as nat- urally from breathing through the mouth as blood from an open vein. And now, in the language of the famous American traveler.

There are two sides to both questions, and some day, when I get time and have conva- lesced a little more, Iam going to write a book relating to these two matters. At present, T Just went to say a word about the colony which bears the name of the Zribune philoso- pher and nestles so luvinuly at the chilly feet of the Recky mountains. As I write, Greeley is sey an oasis in the desert. It looks like afertile island drop; down from heaven in a boundless stretch of buffalo grass, and cunning little prairie dogs. And yet you could not come here as a stranger, and within the colonjal barbed wire fence procure a bit of cold rum if you were President of the United States, with a rattlesnake bite as large #8 an easter egg concealed about your person. You can, however, become acquainted, if you are of a social nature and keep your eyes open. I do not say this because I have been thirsty these few past weeks, and just dropped on the game, as Aristotle would say, but just to prove that men are like boys, and, when youtell them they can’t have any particular thing. that is the thing they areapt to desire with afeverish yearn. That is why the thirstful man in Maine drinks from the gas fixture, why the Kansas drinkist gets his out of a rain water barrel, and why other miracles too numerous to mention are performed. Whisky is more bulky and annoying to carry about in the coat tail pocket than a plug ot to- bacco, but there have been cases where it was successfully done. I was shown yesterday a little corner that would hold six or eight bushels. It was inthe wash room of a hotel, and was about half full. So were the men who came there, for before night the entire place was filled with empty whisky bottles of ever size, shape and smell. The litte t&t bottle with the odor of gin and livery’stable was there, and the large flat bottle that you get at Evans, four miles away, generally filled with something that tastes like tincture of capsicum, spifits of ammonia and lingering death, is also repre- sented in this great congress of cosmopolitan bottles sucked dry and the cork gnawed half np. “A Rear Preasvre It is, indeed, to come here, where everything is so cheerful, clean and convenient, and where the sales- mnen are £0 painstaking and gentleman‘y, to buy our BOYS’ CLOTHING!” Is a remark often made by many of our appreciative lady patrons.
