LOSS OF BRITISH FLORISTS.
They Grew Roses by the Thousand
for the Coronation and No One
Wanted Them

How great will be the loss of thou
sands who had expected to reap for
tunes during the coronation ceremo-
MES in London it has been impossible
to estimate. Here is one item alone in
which the losses are practically ire
parable, says the New York Sun.
In anticipation of an enormous de-
mand for roSes-the coronation flower
the florists of England and the
continent laid out large tracts of land
with rose bushes, planning so that the
flowers would be ready in these last
days of June.
1t was estimated that the kings
subjects would wear and use for dec
orations at least 6OOOO OG0 of red roses
alone and would be willing to pay from
two to four cents apiece for them.
This was a moderate estimate. As
coronation week approached it was
feared that the supply would not equal
the demand.
The English retail florists poured in
orders for thousands of blooms upon
the gardeners. The fortunes in pros
pect seemed to be very close at hand.
for the prices of roses went steadily
up in anticipation of a scarcity.
Now it is all at an end. Instead of
great profits there will be great losses.
No one wants red roses now.
The florists who ordered and have
literally tons of flowers coming from
the continent which they will be I'M
able to use, will bear the loss in part.
But most of it will fall upon the grow
ers in whose Offices the notices of can
collation. are piled high.
The larger part of the rose crop will
die upon the bushes, and the gardeners
will be out of pocket the money they
have spent on land on plants and on
cultivation in anticipation of the prof
its which the sudden illness of one man
has reduced to airy nothings.

What is described as an "ancient

Among the peasants of southern

malady has been noticed by physi-

One of the most remarkable effects of

HYPNOTlSM FOR ALCOHOLISM.
Experiment Being Tried on the Inc
briates in Russia with Some
Degree of Success,

Recently, in Russia, Knery and Sim
ami made a number of interesting at
tempts to treat alcoholism by hyp-
nosis, with favorable results, and
they believe such trea tment superior
to medication. Sinani treated 81 pa
tients at a dispensary, giving them
suggestion every day, resulting in the
complete recovery of 16, who did not
relapse to drink in from one-half to
ten years. Bechterew has employed
hypnOtism in the treatment Of chron-
ic alcoholism for ten years. but in
spite of the good results he does not
consider suggestion alone sufficient
for permanent cure, as alcoholism
is not disease of the will power alone,
but often depends upon organic
changes. For this reason he combines
hypnosis with hydrotherapy, bro:n-
ides, codeine, heart tonics. strycbnine,
etc. Abramowitz is enthusiastic over
this treatment having nine complete
cures out of the 16 patients treated.
He believes the combination with
drugs gives no better results than
hypnosis alone. WiasemSky thinks
this treatment, the, best for alcohol
ism. He has found that these patients
are easily hypnotized, and also that
there is a difference between those
who wish to be cured and those who
were urged by relatives and friends
to undergo the treatment. There
never was bad effect from the with
drawal of stimulants. the tremor and
general weakness disappearing quick
ly under suggestion. The observation
of the cured cases extends over a
period of ten years.-Journal of In
ebriety.

King Enjoys Fires,

King Edward, from childhood, has
always shown the keenest interest in
fires and firemen. OF all the enter
tainmcnts provided for him by the
city of New York, he has most often
remembered, and says he most en-
joyed, a parade of the volunteer fire
department in his honor. There were
5000 firemen in uniform, and all, Save
those in charge of ropes and tillers,
bore torches. 1t was a great spec
tacle, and the prince, as he looked
at the brilliant display in Madison
square, cried repeatedly: This is
for me; this is all for mel" with I'M
affected glee. During many years of
his life, he used to be informed when
ever really big blaze was signaled,
and ne has attended incognito most
of the big fires in London during the
last 80 years.-Everybody's Magazine.

ALCOHOLISM AND SUICIDE.
Conclusions Which Are Drawn by DR..
w. c. Sullivan, of PentOnyilIe,
Prison, England.

In 80 years the increase of alcohol
ism in Great Britain is estimated at
more than 100 per cent. During the
same period there has been steady
increase in the suicide rate. AS re-
CARDS attempts to commit suicide, there
has been a similar and even more de-
cided increase. Voluminous and con-
yincing statistical evidence proves
these two points. 1t is likewise shown
by DR.. Tatham's tables of occupational
groups with high rate of alcoholism
that these groups furnish relatively
high rate of suicide. DR., w. C. Sullivan,
of Pentonville prison, draws the fol-
lowing conclusions:
First That the recent increase of
suicide has coincided with a consider
able development of abortive suicidal
attempts. These attempts, in such of
their character as are ascertainable,
have appropriated to the type of alco-
holic suicide, thereby confirming the
clinical evidence, which attributes to
alcoholism the chief role in the genesis
of abortive suicidal impulses.
Second. That this increase of suicide
has been, in large degree, related to
the influence of alcoholism, an infiu-
ence which in the same period-as NOR
tally statistics attest-has tended to
augment.
Third. That there is type of alco-
holic suicide, with characteristics dis
tinguishing it from suicide of other eau
saton, and that as compared with cases
ofdehberate and coordinate suicide due
to other causes, alcoholic suicide is
found to be more impulsiye, more di-
rectly and Immediately related to or
ganic conditions in the individual
Fourth. The chronic intoXication by
alcohol, as we observe it, clinically pro-
duces generalized disorders of visceral
function throughout the economy,
disturbance of those organic stimuli
which form the groundwork of our per-
sonality; those stimuli whose activity,
as Maudsley puts it, is 'even of more
consequence in determining the tone
of our feeling or of our disposition and
the character of our impulses than that
activity which follows impressions re-
ceived from the external world" The
depressed emotional tone thereby in
duced prepares the suicidal impulse,
which issues into action when a super
vening increase of intoxication has still
further lowered the level of function

ENCOURAGES TUBERCULOSIS.
Alcohol Is n Potent Factor in
Its Propagation.

Unhealthy dwellings cause other
disasters. Dark and crowded as they
are, cleanliness is difficult, if not i'm
possible to preserve. They are not
pleasant to pass the tirse in, and the
workman stays in his home as little
as possible; he eats there and sleeps
there, but the rest of his time is
spent in the public house. Sir John
Simon was right in saying: The
wretched lodging is the purveyor to
to the public house, and we can add
to it that the public house is the pur-
veyor of tuberculosis. In fact, alco-
holism is the most potent factor
In propagating tuberculosis. The
strongest man who has once taken to
drink is powerless against it. Time
is too short for me now to draw com
PARSONS between the laws in force in
different countries, those which are
proposed, private efforts, associated
efforts and temperance societies. But
l can say that a universal cry of de-
spair rises from the whole universe
at the sight of the disasters caused
by alcoholism. l will quote but two
sets of statistics, but they speak for
themselves. Tatham's show that, the

100, that caused by tuberculosis

King Edward is said to have been
impressed by the warning of seer
that though he would become king
he would never be crowned. A GU
rious historical coincidence is also
said to have caught his attention.
1t was that George " died on Thurs
day, June &c, 1920, the exact day,
week and month fixed for his cor
onation, and that, furthermore,
George Tvs last days were clouded
by hi; inability to attend the Ascot
races, which, precisely like King Ed
ward this year, he had planned
should be marked by exceptional
state and magniticence. A student of
English royal annals had likewise

Wales, certainly for 400 or even 500
years, had attended a coronation of
a king.-N. Y. Herald.
