In China. where the opium habit
ruins and destroys many men annually,
the efforts Of the Government to abolish
or diminish the use Of opium have been
recently more energetic than ever. All
these efforts have been in vain, as were
those Of many previous years. The
Pskin Government have at last deter
mined to take tho fnsl step in the
business, and On edict has been issued
which goes into effect next year, max.
ing the use or ssle Of opium punishable
BY death. It 10 hard to say how the
sdict will be- met by the ten million
opium victims Of the Celestial Empire,
or what proportion of them will come
to this country to enjoy their fascinating
passion.
