A Victim of Opium,

The Utica Observer relates sad case O,
physical and mental prostration produced
by the habitual use OF opium. A man
named Wheeler, forty years OF age, married,
and the father of three children, was carted
to the police station in that city on Monday
night in helpless state of intoxication,
supposed at the time to have resulted from
over indulgence in liquor. When able to
give an account of himself, he confessed to
being an opium eater. He subsequently,
stated that when about twenty years of Age
he imagined himself doomed to an early
death by consumption. Under the advice
OF physician he begun to drug himself
with opium. At first the doses were small,
but as the habit grew upon him they in
creased in quantity, until now an ounce of
opium day is necessary to his existence.
TO procure this drug is the master passion
OF his life. He has no appetite for food
Opium in some form has been his onlv
nourlshment for days together. In appear.
ance he is melancholy spectacle, his face
bloodless and expressionless, his lips color
less, his eyes fixed, his clothes foul and
ragged. Whisky is bad enough, but for
regular body and soul destroying substance
commend Us to OPIUM.
