Narc0lism.
BY ". XAvIER sUpDurH. NJ. u.

81 W. NAV LEX st Dbl / II. NJ. u.
In the face of statistics showing an
increase i'll the manufacture and con
sumption of narcotics and StmulantS.
it is sometimes difficult to regard th.
future hopefully. A broader view Of
the situation, however. enables US to
see, even in the darkness, the dawn of
better times. There can be no quos-
ton but that there is growing senti-
ment against the use of narcotics
among the more enlightened classes of
society, with an ever increasing num-
Der of total abStainers and while it is
true that the consumption of narcotics
and stimulants is increasing per capita.
the use of these poisons is becoming
less general being confined to special
classes of society.
The great middle class which in al
countries from time immemorial has
been the salvation of the nation is. in
the United States practically free from
the habit of inebrety, the occasion1l
exceptions only proving the truth Of
the statement. The growing sentiment
against the use of narcotics has mad
the effect of intensifying their de-
moraliZing action on the individual,
and thus magnifying the prominence
of the baneful action of narcotics upon
the system until it is rapidly becoming
to be recognized as a disease, whereas.
in former years. it was only looked
upon as purely habit The sideboar1
that used to be considered an ind;s-
penSable article of furniture in the
dining room of all classes of society Is
now confined to the few, and even the
use of wines in our public hotels has
been discontinued to a very great IN
tent.
There can be no doubt that with the
decrease in the use of stimulants by the
masses there has been an increase in
their abuse by the classes The very
prominence that the evil of narcot;snl
has assumed at the present day, how
ever, only argus its downfall The
growing sentiment of the community is
strongly set against the social use of
wines and liquors. The banqueting ia
BE and the middle classes are freer
from this abuse than in former years
and even the dealers and manufact-
uferS are beginning to feel the weight
of public opinion. 1t is no longer re-
spectacle to run a tavern even if it
he n hotel caravansary, and the
saloon-keeper is denied the right of re-
Specialize society, membership in Sc
cret lodges and communion in the
Catholic church He has become a
Vcritable EGau, with every mans hand
against him and his hand against his
neighbor. The widespread abuse of
narcotics has attracted the attention
of the medical profession. hospitals for
