HER STRANGE ADVENTURE
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun
 You newspaper women think you have queer experiences sometimes" said the trained nurse rather contemptuously. But you really don't know anything about queer experiences
 'Go on," said the newspaper woman. 'Tell your story"
 Well" said the trained nurse in grumbling tone, don't ever think you have seen life until you have done da- tective and trained nurse work on the same case.
 ''I was called one day tc young wo- man living with her parents in a fash ionable residence district. She was widow with an income of $3OO a month In her own right She had little hoy. He was beautiful child, and she was pr had been, beautiful woman.
 ''When I first saw her, every tooth in her head was loose and ulcerated so that she could take no solid fool. Her body was covered with wounds and scars She would talk for twelve hours at a stretch and never speak word of truth
 She would pawn everything she could lay her hands on, and she was filled with suspicion of every one who approache el her She was, in fact, d morphine wreck
 She had taken the drug first under T physicians orders, to alleviate pain. He had given her a hypodermic spri.Ige and taught her how to use it. Before her parents knew it she had become a slave. Then they put her under the care of an other physician, and he installed me to see that his orders were carried ont,

 "She never could be fooled again. and died within year, a pitiful wreck. The trouble was that none of us had ever for one instant had the patients Will with us. The drug had destroyed her moral nature.
 My reputation in this case brought me two others of the same kind in success sion. The next was a young society fel- low, one of the most attractive men ever saw.

 "He would buy box of expensive shirts
  He had carried off clocks and bric-a-brac to pawn. If he hadn't been watched he would have pawned the entire contents of the house.
 And he would get away alone and drink exactly like the first one, and his brothers would have to trace him down among the Bowery dives. And yet with il all he was so normal, and so charming between times that he would fool every one.
 "At times partial realization of his condition would come over him, and ne would cry like a child. From first to last there were sixteen doctors on that cas. and it ended in nervous breakdown, hystero- epilepsy and death.
 My third fiend was a handsome, mid dle-aged matron who had been good wife and mother and a splendid house keeper. Her family adored her.

All of which was totally foreign to her normal nature.

 "We played the same game In her case as we did In the first one.

Milking by Machinery.

From the Baltimore American.
 A study of milking machines carried on at the Kansas experiment station dis closes the fact that this device, which has only come into extensive use recent ly, had it's first practical application near ly thirty years ago, and that since then over seventy types of machines have been built, besides the innumerable others that have been designed but have never reach ed this state of development
 Aside from the score of economy, which does not figure in dairies containing less than fifty cows. the real merit of ma- chine milking is the greater cleanliness of the mechanical operation. In twelve experiments conducted at the Kansas sta-

From the Kansas City Star.
 "A mistake was made when ate at this place five years ago." said a man to a waitress at the lunch counter in the Union depot yesterday afternoon.

 No, that's not the trouble. I was short twenty cents."

 The cleanliness of mechanical milking is further confirmed by the results of microscopic examination, the number of bacteria per unit being markedly fewer when the milk was drawn artihcially.

t"I got his order on the drug store to dilute the mixture according to my or ders. Then 1 had to go back to the drug store and fix it up with them. It took me a solid day to chase that thing down.
 "Fortunately 1t was so early in the treatment that she did not have sense enough to detect the difference between the two doses. After that she could send her bottle to either place, and they would send her the diluted mixture.
 "Whenever l had any time o1 l would spend it tracing things she hal pawned and redeem them. She would pawn things that she wanted herself when she had money in her purse. Thea she would send messenger boys for wine and liquors
 "A trait of morphine poisoning is that the victim will drink without any sense or Judgment She would drink alcoholics like water. Of course. she could only get them when she eluded the whole family One day she drank pint Of pure gin and got crazy drunk.
 ''Well, eventually that woman became perfectly well physically, though still under the impression that she was taking her full dose. We had eliminated .he physical demand for the drug, hut we lid not dare to eliminate the pretcnse. We could restore her health. but we couldn't minister to a mind diseased.
 "Then she married again. Her mother told the second husband the whole story before the marriage, and he undertook to keep up the deception. Queer con- ditions of affairs to marry under, wasn't 1t?
 But he did his part faithfully till one day he was called suddenly to the city on business when they were at seaside | hotel. She had a little pain of some kind, called in a strange physician, get a prescription and took full dose. "The minute she had done it she per ceived it's difference from what she had been taking.

 "She demanded her hypodermic regular ly, and at the usual time the pains of the physical demand for the drug would over come her. and she would become nervous and hystercal. The moment she got the dose she would be satisfied
 "Yet we had reduced that dose until finally she was getting practically pure water, with just enough morphine in it to deaden the pain of the Injection. Now if you can tell how much of that was mental and how much physical, how much real and how much self-deception, you will do better than either the doctor or l could.
