developed by stimulants are not confined

treated in hospital, or have nurses aid,
and this class of nurses find remunerative
employment surrounded by luxury. This
class of invalids cannot be estimated, as
usually family OF private physician gives
no statistics.
Assuming that criminal tendencies are

tendencies, wholly or partially? Surely
