may soon be greater need of a temper.
ance reform among the women than
there ever has been among the men.
Strong drink, however, is not the mon
ster by which the women may be en-
shaved, but strong and poisonous drug
| equally baneful in its effect.
This drug is antipyrine. The chemi.
cal name for it is neutrality-suspicious."
but, as it is rather long and might not
be easily pronounced by ladies' who are
not photographed experts, it has been
called simple antipyrine, and appears as
such in the medical books.
1t is white powder, slightly bitter,
and soluble in water. Until about a
year ago it was prescribed for fevers
only, but u French medical.college rec
commended it for headaches and other
pains and disorders and in this way it
| has gained grasp on SO many thought
less and nervous women.
In Chicago and many other places II is
said that the habit is gaining with alarm
ing rapidity, for the women take it for
every i'll, and cannot believe that its
soothing effect can have any evil result
until the habit is thoroughly fixed upon
them.
1t produces different results under diff
ferent circumstances, and, like many
other preparations, varies according 10
the size of the dose. In large doses ii
has been known to produce complete re-
Taxation and at the same time loss OF
reflex action and death. In moderate or
tonic doses it often produces commissions.
Its effect rs a stimulant seems to be very
much like that of quinine, and the ply.
sicians say that they do not understand
why it should get the hold on women
that il does.
