KEEPING THE HEART YOUNG.
Old
I'coplo Who Are Young In Tholl
Ways, and Tboso Who Are Not.
Dickens says: "If all had hearts liko
those which beat so lightly in the bo
som of the youug and beautiful, what
a heaven this earth would bol If,
while our bodies grow old and with
ercd, our hearts could but retain their
youth and freshness, of what avail
would be our sorrows and sufferings!
But tho faint imago of Eden, which is
stamped , upon them in childhood.
chafes and rubs in our rough struggle
with tlie worm, ana soon .wears away:
too . often to leave nothing but a
mournful blank remaining."
How true and beautiful this senti
ment is; but is it always tho contact
with the fough side of the world that
leaves the heart hard and blank? Is
it not too. often the indulgence or Lit
ter feelings of envy and discontent
.mat soursanu turns to wormwood and
gall many of the sweets of life) Be
cause wo do not prosper as well as our
neighbor, we fret and imagine our lot
harder than any one else, and look
upon it as "luck," and are therefore
bitter in feeling against those who are
more fortunate than ourselves. It is
the yielding to ovil passions and tem
pers thnt makes tho heart row' old ;
tho inclination to look on the dark
and gloomy side of-everything,. or to
uso a familiar adage, "crossing the
bridgo before we got to it." This
seems to bo Ufce nature of some people,
and conscauoutly they grow old be
fore their tune, and the heart is scared
and hard and -nothing truly but a
"mournful Wank remains." ,
Why not keep the heart young?
Why not have the earth a heaven,
and Keep childhood's faith and happi
ness in our hearts, even though the
bodies will prow, old and withered?
It is a fact worth record that when
vou meet a eenial. hannv old nerson
you find they have a youthful heart
a heart of love and good will ; a heart
that sympathizes ana enters into the
pleasures and every dav enjoyments
of tho young and aro willing to mako
any sacrifices that the young poopla
may enjoy life; such old people al
ways have pleasant races, placid ex
pressions, and a light in tho eye that
reflects tho emotions of the heart.
One is involuntarily drawn to such
people. But there is another class of
old people (alas, too numerous), whose
laces are as sour and crabbed as possi
ble ; tncy never sco any good m any
one; the young never do right, every
thing , has degenerated since their
young days, and the whole world
moves different; is it any wonder that
the hearts of such people aro a9 with
ered and bitter as their faces indicate?
The face is the true index of tho
heaTt, a mirror in which it3 emotions
aro truly pictured ; tho face, may grow
old, 'aim time may leave its impress iu
heavy linos and wrinkles, but from
beneath them all there beams a light
that is a reflection from a heart kept
young and fresh, whilo the body has
grown-old beneath the weight of

A lumber pile made of boards, each
100 feet long and 0 foot in width,
would bo an unprecedented eight in
the east, but a gentleman recently re
turned from a visit to the coast of tho
North racillc ocean says that piles of
timber euch as that aro common at
ihe mills on Puget sound. "Boards
feet long and 6 feet wido, with
out a knot -in them," ho Bays, "aro
.('minion cuts from -the gigantio fir
frees of the Pugct souna foresta.
Tliese trees grow to the enormous
height of 250 foet, and tho forests aro
bo vast that although the saw mills
have been ripping 600,000,000 foet of
lumber out of them every year for ten
yours, tho spaces made by these tre
mendous inroads seem no more than
grtrdeu patches. Puget sound has
1,800 miles of shore line, and all along
this line and extending thcncen both
aides miles and miles further than tho
eye can see, is one vast and almost un
broken forest of these enormous trees.
There is nothing like it anywhere on
tho Pacific coast. An official estimate
places the amount of standing timber ,
in that area at COO.000.000.000 feet or
u thousand years' supply even at the
enormous rato tho timber is now being
felled and sawed. Tho timber belt
covers 30,000,000 acres of Washington
Territory, an area equal to tho states
of Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecti
cut and New Hampshire. The markets
for tho Pugct sound lumber are en
tirely foreign, being South America,
Australia, -Central America and tho
Pacific ocean islands." Philadelphia

.': A confirmed opium smpkc'r was re
cently asked whether ho ever knew a
-person who had been cured of the
habit. ' " ' ' - .'
"Only onco." ho replied, " and then
it wasn't a voluntary cure by any
means. Ho was a man about 85 years
old, who had been a Blavo to tho habit
for fifteen years. lie wasfso given up'
to it that his businoss wont to smash,
and he used to rusoit to all manner of
things in order to get money to pur
chase a , 'shell.' lie used to crave
eight shells or worth of opium a
day, and I havo frequently met him
in a joint that was run by two tough
Chinamen in Marion street, offering to
roll for smokers in order to sharQ.their
opium. One day ho had been with
out a Emoko for about seven hours,
and ho became so despmute that
ho tried to , rob tho till in " a
.grocery store, lio was detected
and arrested. lie got word down to
the joint telling of his misfortune,
aud begging for God's sako that some
body would send him somo opium. I
bought some dry opium pills and got
them in to him after a deal of trouble.
Tho next .daV I called on him and a
more miseraulo wretch I never saw.
He was" suffering the tortures of hell,
lie was doubled up with cramps in his
stomach, and tho inevitable pain be
tween --tho-shoulders,, which feels as
though somebody was driving spikes
into your ilesh, was racking him.
These tortures wcro joined to severo
pains in all tho joints, as though tho
limbs wore decaying and- would' soon
drop ofif. He had been without opium
so long that ho was fairlfaniLshiug.
and tho small quantity of the drug I
hati Deon able to send was disposed of
in short order. , r
; " 'There isn't a taste of it left,' he
yelled to me us I entered his cell in
the Tombs. Then ho rolled his tongue
around as though searching for any
small particles that might bo hidden
away in a txth. I gave him tho pills'
1 had brought. , Ho seized them like a
eturving man would Beizo a crust of
bread. He placed two of them in his
mouth and rol led them around until
they had .dissolved, and theu washed
them down with a mouthful of water.
Iu a few minutes he was lying on his
col as placid find happy as a healthy
oaoy. l sept mm supplied with opiujn
until' ho was tried and sentenced. 1
managed to slip a few of them into his
hand as ho ..was,' on his way to Siug
fcrttig. I heard no inoro of him and
forgot nil about hinj until one day, oil
Broadway, several years later, a stal
wart, rosy cheeked fellow slapped mo
on the shoulder and .heartily shook
mo by tho hand. I waa nearly sur
risecf into a fit when ho explained
that ho was tho opium fiend of a few-
years ago. iio said that when he
got to Sing Sing tho habit was j
on him : very strong. Tho pills!
i had given him had crumbled to dust
in Iiis pocket, and had become soj
mixed up with a lot, of other stuff that
hecoulu not uso them. Ho was in a
raging torment tlint night and cried
for tho drug. Tho keepers found him,
and the prison phvsician, who was
called, fortunately diagnosed tho case
correctly. It wasn't much credit to
him, however, for every feature of tho
man's face and every motion of his
body almost proclaimed him an opium
fleud. Ho was removed to the hospital,
and tho physician wa3 kind enough to
get interested in tho caso. He braced
him up with hypodermic injections of
morphine every limo tbo craving camo
on, and bf a liberal uso of this drug
finally wore away tho desire for tho
other. Of course this treatment cre
uted tho morphine habit, but this -was
inoro readily cured," and ray friend
soon lost all desire for drugs of any
kind, and 13 a prosperous, happy man
today. If he had not been arrested ho
would certainly have gono tho way of
all tho fiends, and have endoil his
life himself, or died miserably in some
hole. He tried to reason the caso with
mo in hopes that I would surrender
tho drug and endure tho agonies that
such a privation would produce for
tho pleasure attending tho feeling that
I was no longer a slavo to it, Iliave
heard all of those arguments a thou
sand times, and freqticntly I havo lain
ina joint with another smoker, and
we havo both sworn off, and tho very ,
next day we would both bo in the
soldo placo again. I am gatting worse
every year. Tho habit is growing'
mora expensive, and the longer I am
at it tho less disposed do 1 foci for j
wont oj any Kind, ay memory la i
failing m now, and I am already
pretty well along on the downward
road. I'll go a littlo further down,

A KICKING BOY'S AID TO SCIENCE
ne
Bolpa Dr. Soyre to plsoore Cue
. for locomotor Ataxia. -
. ' As announced in Tho Herald's cabla
rhr.patohos, a euro for tho dread disease
known as locomotor ataxia has been
recently put to practice in Europe. It
is alleged that Dr. Motschutkowsky,
of Odessa, is the discoverer of the new
troatmont, whioh aims at curing tho
curvature of the spinal column by sus
pending the uaticiii ; - .
Dr. Lewis A. Bayro, of this city, is
accredited with having Invented the
apparatus in use which was described
In The Herald, whereby tlie patient is
lifted from his feet with tho object or
elongating the vertebral column.
I culled on several eminent surgeons
yesterday, with a view to obtaining
ineir versions 91 me new euro ui loco
motor ataxia, and failed to find one
who could disclose the secret They
all acknowledged they efficacy of the
treatment pursued by Charcot, admit
ting that it , is duo to tho process of
suspension by Dr. Sayre's instrument
-Various theories were offered in expla
nation of the results attained, tho most
plausible ouo being tJiat a straight

liko pressure upon tho nervosand thus
permits them to open communication
with tho leg3 aud produce their action.
yno surgeon mauiuunea- that a
curvo is not effected, but that a tem
porary relief is given, the same as is
secureu in cases 01 : neuralgia by
stretching tho nerves. - ;
Dr. Sayro was in bed when I called
on him, huving been a suherer from

of my visit. "1 discovered accidental'
ly, several years ago, n sakl Dr. Sayro,
"that tho straightening, of tho snino
produced a Balutary-efiect upon the
locomotor ataxia, wmcn means an in
ability to; utio tho logs. A boy was
brought to mo suffering from a curva
ture of tho spine. His -parents were
poor and lived at Chatham -Corners..
They-supposed I could cure him in
one trip. As tho littlo fellov was in
great suffering 1 determined not to let
him return home without relief, my
intention being to give him a plaster
jacket with instructions to return
when ho hod- grown a fow mouths
older.
"As I lifted the littlo fellow, holding
htm with my hands beneath his arms,
"I iiotice'd that he began to Lick.
" 'That's funny,' I remarked. 'LTow
tho dovil could he do that?'
"Iun fow minutes tho jacket was
cast ami 1 the boy on a loungo 111

had left tho couch and gono to tho

ing tho boy up and thus Btraightening
tho spiuo tho hitherto impeded "circu
lation of tho blood had been started
arid given his legs free action. And
that Eo'cms to bo tho caso in all in
stances." Hero Dr. Bayro bent Lis thumb to
illustrate tho effect of a spinal curva
ture. Ho said that by suspension tho
tpino is straightened and that tho
nerves aro relieved of the pressure duo 1

thumb is bent tit tho joint New York
