which II appears that Datto Ruty has

New York Sun. At least 10 900 per-
sons In this country are victims of NOR
phine and 10 per cent. OF American
physicians are slaves to opium In some
form. according TO a statement adopted
by the Medical News. All recent esti-
mates. the same auth ority asserts,
moreover. indicate that the use OF NOR
.phine not only as n drug To allay pain.
but also as an intoyicant. Is daily be-
coming an increased evil.
A physician TO whom this statement
was quoted by Sun reporter expressed
some doubt as TO the extent OF theevil
so far az the medical profession is con-
oerned. but said that the general esti-
mate was rather under than over tho
mark.
THE demand for morphine In the
drug stores Ia increasing at an alarm
Ing rate" said this physician. Trade
in the drug is restricted by law. hut
the law is practically Intellectual. Any
morphine fend who needs supply
knows how to obtain Il. and does obtain
II readily enough. and apparently one
user ~ the drug makes many more.
Before long there Is sure TO be n
cry for Increased restriction. What Is
needed. however. Is not so much new
law. but the stricter enforcement-of the
present one, and vigorous plpsecdtion
OF those who connive at the nSefpSraf-
- in the stuff" -.
Hbether Ar not II IS possible 10 cure
the Ngdrmed morphine eater after the
habit has reached serious stage Is
still the subject OF debate among ph ysi-
clans. There are also differences of
opinion rs to the best treatment. al
though the authorities agree now that
institutional treatment or the services
/ OF trained nurse. 10 outwit the cum
ming aroused In the patient by tho crav-
ing for the drug. are essential TO
4 success.
Baths and exercise In the Omen air
form an important part OF the newest
treatment advocated. and II Is laid
down that there is practically certain
ty OF n relarse unless the treatment Is
prolonged to three months: oftencr to
six.
The sudden with drawal Of the drug
by friends or relatives. horror stricken
over the discovery OF the disease has
resulted In many cases In n fatal col
lapse. Substitution Of some other
opium derivative has now been reject
cd ms unsatisfactory.
Gradual withdrawal Of II or taporne

ity OF cases. and In some cases lessen
