THE CoMMIssARYs POINT OF VIEW.
While others were looking critically at the
uniforms and bearing of the National Guard
while it marched past the President at the re-
view one man gazed intently into the soldiers
faces. That man was Brigade Commissary
Sergeant L. H. Neumeyer. Speaking of the
affair to Gen. Ordway the other evening, the
sergeant said: II watched our men march past
until was mentally weary. l thought they
never would come to an end. l believe saw
every mouth in the brigade and every one
OF them looked hungry. II appalled, me to
think that all that crowd had to be fed in camp
and to know that they had to be served with
each meal inside of thirty minutes. or course

LOVELY WOMAN LOOKING on.
Ever since mighty men of war commenced to
array themselves in garments peculiar to their
sanguinary avocation the female heart has been
drawn in that direction, and the brass buttons
OF today are ;ncomprehensibly and unnaturally
magnetic. The latest feminine fad in connec-
ton with military matters is to go, in company
with half a dozen kindred and like-sexed
spirits, to the Second Regiment Armory to
spend an evening. These little aggregatious
OF loneliness call themselves drill parties
and they say they have real jolly time in the
drill hall watching the companies and bat
tllions evOlute. 1t is not uncommon for as
many as hundred young ladies, all properly
chaperoned, to watch the dr,ll for whole
evening.

Opium Smoking In London.

Some startling facts are brought to
light by writer in recent issue of the
Medical Press concerning the increase
in the habit of smoking opium in Lon
don. A gentleman who had been told
that this habit was growing determined
to make some inquiries himself. After
some time he learned that applica ton
for information should be made to a
certain well-known medical practitioner
living in the West End. The gentle
mans wife wrote to this practitioner
asking information and received in re-
ply copy of pamphlet entitled
"Opium Smoking as Therapeutic
Power, According to the Latest Medical
Authorities" The pamphlet describes
in detail the method of preparing and
smoking the opium and recites the con-
ditions which are said to be specially
benefited by taking the drug in this
form. The physician who is supposed
to be the author of the pamphlet is
confirmed opium smoker and he seems
to be actuated with desire to drag
others down to the level of his own
