dope friends have a mournful time of
it while behind the bars and often vent
their feelings in loud complaints.
In the absence of other drugs the
wretched sufferers are content to use
''yen-she,' which is made of the scrap
ings of opium pipes. These scrapings
look like the black dust scraped from
an ordinary tobacco pipe. As repeated
efforts have been made to smuggie yen

with small portion of the powder in
the palm of his hand. he went to the
cell of the dope fieud,' assuming a mys-
terious manner and looking about eau
tiously. as though wishing to avoid at
tracing attention and arousing impor-
tunity from the other prisoners. He
poured the powdered bread crusts into
the wretched mans hand. The dope
fiend' flashed him a grateful look and
quickly gulped down the powder.

mighty relief. 1 couldn't tell you how
much good that 'yen-she' has done me.
Corless returned to the cell a little

Yesterday morning the prisoner was

not doubt that he had had a swallow
of the poison he craved and had noticed
nothing different between the slumber
brought on by the soothing effects of
Imagination and that induced by drugs.
Later in the day. the man again became
restless and begged Corless for just a
little more ''yen-she." The deputy sher-

more of the black powder into the man

The thermometer registers between
95 and 100 degrees and in intervals
while he is not hopping the perspir-

merits of his machine. The machine
is just what its name implies-a frost
preventative.
1t consists Of a thermometer sta
toned 200 feet from a mans house
so connected with an electric battery
and bell in his bedroom that when
the thermometer reaches a certain
stage-which is arbitrarily fixed by
the operator by setting-an electric
circuit is completed and a bell is rung
so as to awaken the suhbandman that
he may go TO his orchard and light
huge lamps of crude oil which create
a smudge and prevent frost.

that Syrup of Figs and Elixir OF

It is the best OF personal and family

It acts pleasantly and naturally and
