Dope Fiend Cured by Hypnotism.

Professor Munsterberg takes d fling at LOmbroso's theories in the April McClure's, and holds organized society responsible for the criminal trend of those born with poorly working" minds. Professor Munsterberg tells of a hospital patient to whom opiates were administered:
 He became a morphinist, an out cast, without energy and without hope. For weeks I have been fighting his passion with persistent suggestive treatment; the dose he needs has been reduced to q hundredth part of what it was and his soul strength and enjoy ment of life have slowly come back, he will be cured soon. But every day, when l put my full energy to the task, I think of the cruelty with which so- ciety has treated him. He was not born dope fiend.; he did not choose the poison. Organized society inject ed it into his system-a small dose only. but enough to make the craving for it irresistible; and when this crav- ing had grown to ruinous proportions. society was ready to despise and to condemn him. Even at best. it could only make heroic efforts to overcome the gigantic passion which it had recklessly created
 ITO me this case of diseased passion is q symbol Of all the crime that fills the countries of the globe No man is born a criminal; but society gives him. without his will the ruinOus in- jectiOn-of course, a sman dose only. a shot of an eighth of a grain-and despises him if the injected instinct grows and grows; and when it has de- stroyed the whole man. tnen society goes heroically to work with police and court and punishment. Nearly always it is too late; the prevention of that first reckless injection would have been better than all the labor of the penitentiaries.
 'They are less fit than others, but their ending within prison walls is only one of the many dangers which life has in store for them: the same unfit apparatus may make them un- able to gain a position or to have friends or to protect themselves against disease. Tn short. it i- not criminals that are born but men with poorly working minds"

In the City of PiIle

There is one city in the world today which bears an absolutely unIque dis tihction. and that is Detroit-the City of Pills" So writes J. Olivier Curwood in the Technical World Magazine for April. This year it is estimated that Detroit manufacturers will make three quarters of the worlds supply of pills. or over 6,O00,000,00O pellets. O1 all sizes, shapes and colors, and intended for almost every ailment of human kind In this city are made over 2000 differ ent varieties of pills and if single seasons crop was made of some dead ly poison there would be enough to depopulate the entire globe twice over. To look at it in another way. if this annual harvest was strung. like pop corn, the rope Of pills would reach three times around the earth at th.. equator
 Today America is the greatest pill consuming nation on earth, for, while Detroit pills find their way to every conceivable corner of the globe from the frozen regions of the Arctic to the deepest fastness or tropical jungles. not more than one-third of the total product leaves this country. the aver age consumption being something like sixty pills per capita per year.
 This is the introduction to an inter esting illustrated article on "pill-mak- ing in a great manufacturing chem ists establishment and the author handles the subject very entertain ingly

 Well, and has painting come to this?'"
 "T told 4Ir. Graves said Whistler. that he should have said. No. it hasn't"
 Whistler's caustic wit is shown by the following anecdOte:
 Of one who. was held to be Eng lands most brilliant young artist, Yes he said thoughtfully. he's clever. but there's something common in cv- erything he does. so what's the use Of it?"
 Like many great men. he had but lit tie time for any but his own work. He told me story demonstrating this most clearly. His Nocturne in Blue and Gold Valparaiso. was in the Hill Collection in Brighton. MT. Hill had two galleries and a wellknown collection. eventually sold at Christe's. Whistler went down to see Mir. Hill. and said he:
 ''l was shown into the galleries and of course took a chair and sat looking at my beautiful Nocturne; then. as there was nothing else to do, l went to sleep

COUNTING THE COST
 OF PROHIBITION
What it Means to the Citizens of Phoenix and Maricopa County, From the Taxpayers Standpoint.

TT MEANS a loss tc the city of Phoenix of the sum of s30.000 now ac- cruinG from license fees. water rates and valuations upon personality. also this proporlionately from the other in- corporated towns in the county.
 IT MEANS d loss to the school fund of the county of the sum of $16.000. which can only be made good by in creasing the farmers taxes
 IT MEANS an addition of 30 more store rooms. to the r. present unoccu- pied: besides which upwards of half a hundred houses occupied as rest dences, this insures decreased rentals. followed by lower valuations upon all real estate
 TT MEANS an addition to the unem- ployed Of not less than 150 men whose present earnings average s100.00 per month; aggregating annually $1S6,000 which is mainly disbursed among the merchants, professional men, electric light, railways, societies. etc. in this city
 While Phoenix Withstood the recent financial shrinkage with only slight inconvenience. will not the withdrawal of upwards of a half million of dollars from her active daily business. precip- itate financial climax for which there is no compensating advantage and no recourse?
 The total of the present city reve- nue is required to meet its current ex- penses, it chnnot be augmented with out territorial legislative action. re- duced taxes follow reduced valuations. which with the elimination above not cd presents a financial condition as deplorable as it IS unwarranted and ir- redeemable.

Turning of the Worm.

Mrs. Lambert, l think We will have to cut down expenses" remarked Mir Lambert timidly.
 To his surprise. she made no reply Then he grew bolder
 And I am certainly of the opinion that you are spending too much mon- ey on gowns and hats"
 Again no answer. His bravery jump ed up another notch.
 And. Mrs. Lambert, I must say. furthermore. that we will nave no more teas or receptions"
 Silence. MT. Lambert grows daring courageous.
 It is simply an outrage the way you lavishly expend my hard earned money. You have no consideration and allow your extravagant ideas to carry you off your feet. Do you req lize that we are living far beyond our means?"
 No answer.
 Do you know that I am making one hundred dollars q month and you are deliberately spending two hundred ? Can't you see the family is bound to land in the poor house." Silence. MT. Lamberts .fortitude is unbounded.
 'I have stood your impositions long enough. Mrs. Lambert. Do you under- stand? You have henpecked me until life is now unbeatable. Now I intend to take hold of the reins. I will man. age affairs and you will obey
 There was sudden crash Then a yell Mir. Lambert's head came into contact with the bedpost as Mrs. Lambert shook him fpriously as she exclaimed:
 Cant you keep your mouth shut when you are asleep? What in the world are you dreaming about any way? It is simply barbarous the way you disturb my rest after I work so hard all day keeping the house in or der. And you know I am worn out from the tea this afternoon, yet"
 And Lambert realized it was all a dream and began nursing the slowly swelling bump on his head.-The Bo- hemian for April.

TROUBLE CEASED
When Proper Food Was Found.

Good news benefits both parties-the teller and the one to whom the glad story is told
 A man out in Dakota told another man how he had been set on his feet. as it were. by good doctor who knew how to treat stomach cases. in a really scientific way-by the use of proper food
 About five years ago" writes the man. "I was suffering from dyspepsia. gas in the stomach and I vas on the verge of nervous prostration when | met a man who told me how he had been relieved of a similar trouble.
 He had suffered with stomach trou- ble for years as q result of eating improper food He was at the time I write, doing the work of an ordinary laborer and said he never felt SD well.
 His doctor mad emptied the stom- ach and then prescribed nothing but Grape Nuts. soft boiled eggs. and dry toast. He got well under this treat ment. I followed his advice and lived on Grape-Nuts with cream. fruit and toast for month. My. trouble ceased almost Immediately.
 Iut StItHS HSlHeHlHS eIIcCl OH my nerves was so gradual I cant just tell when I began to improve, but in a few weeks I could sit contentedly for hours whereas before. was restless and ner- vous. In a month or two I could sleep the moment I lay down
 When my little boy was year and a half old he had d bad attack of in- digestion while was away from home He vOmited four days and nights. l had never seen Grape Nuts recom- mended for babies but l decided 1 would try it. 1 warmed and softened the food in water that had been boiled. 2 teaspocnfuls water, teaspoonfuls rich milk.
 As his stomach got better. l left out the water and used only warm milk He is now strong. active child of two years and eats Grape Nuts three times day. There's a Reason"

MIDNIGHT ASSAULT
 BY AN ARMED FORCE
B Company N. G. A. Captured an En- esmpment of the Normal Cadets Without Bloodshed.

While peaseful civilians in this val ley slept on Saturday night they little dreamed that two magnificent military aggregations. well uniformed and full ly armed with Jorgenson rifles were engaged in a powder burning duel across the river four or five miles southeast of Phoenix. It is the GUS tom of the cadet company of Tempe
 under Captain Irish, to hold a three day encampment annually for field maneuvers as well as the novelty and sport of the thing. It is a custom also to go out quietly without announce ing their camping place or camp wherever they please when night Ov- ertakes them. sometimes changing camp occasionally to throw off it's guard any enemy that might be seek ing to assault them. It Is moreover d custom of either the Tempe or Phoe- nix company of militiamen to seek out the camp of this southside army and attack it with true military spirit. This year the cadets were well along in their third night and there had been no disturbance. They began to fear that they did not appear sufficiently ferocious to attract anybody's atten- tion and that they would be allowed to go home without interference
 But about 1 o'clock Sunday morning a squad of nineteen men under com mand of Second Lieutenant Hin of B company, attacked the cadets with out warning practically took posses sioE of the camp and made the student soldiers admit that they had been sur prised and startled. They had with drawn their outer pickets and all but the guard were sound asleep. having decided that there would be no at tack Tine Phoenix soldiers had cross ed the river in a wagon at Seventh street and worked their way up the other side under the leadership of d scout who had made d reconnaissance during the day. The attack would have been made earlier but the march was difficult and the wagon got stuck in the river. When the enemy's camp was sighted. the team was left and the troops went across a field. ad- Vancing almost to the camp guard and before the cadets awoke to their dan ger they were assailed by sickening fire. One of the sentinels thought it might be q real enemy and ran into camp very much excited. The cadets crawled out from under their blankets and began firing at random but before they could organize good defense the enemy was SO closely upon them they could do nothing but surrender in or der to prevent real fight
 Captain Irish then ordered his cooks to prepare coffee and lunch which was done. after which the Phoenix army marched home again. arriving half hour after sunrise.

The Story of an Amateur POuItryman

About the most sensible thing (and might add. also. the most profitable) beginning l ever saw made in the
 poultry business was by a young clerk who lived in the suburbs of a nearby city. He sustained a severe attack of the hen fever and, as is the usual occurrence, became enthused ever the enormous profits to be made with poultry. He did not, however, allow his enthusiasm to get the best of his better judgment, and cause him to re- sign his clerkship and immediately embark in the poultry business on a more or less extended scale, as has so frequently occurred;; but, instead, he held on 10 his clerkship. fixed up d good comfortable little house on a back lot, bought d dozen standard bred hens and a rooster at a dollar a head, of d neighboring fancier, and thus made his start.
 This was early in the spring: dur ing the spring and summer. he fur nished the family with eggs and chickens, and. besides, matched and raised something like a hundred young chicks. Out of these he retained twenty five of the best bullets for breeders. and. of course at the same time enlarging his house room; and so, by the next spring. We find that his business has. from natural causes. tripled itself. and all this time our friend has been steadily and rapidly gaining in practical knowledge of the business.
 This natural increase continued for another year or two, and by this time he had his business so firmly estab- lished on q paying basis that he was justified in buying small farm out at the edge of town, and then and there becoming fuIl-fledged poultry man. making this his exclusive occu- patton. Speaking of profits. he re- gently told me that he scarcely man. aged to meet expenses the first year the second year he slightly more than kept even, while subsequent years have not failed to show a nice little sum on the right side of the ledger From Profitable Chicken Raising" by Roscoe B. Sando in The Outing Magazine for April.

WIPE FEM OUT"

The battle cry of the ''Prohibs' when they feel they are in the ascendency is No Quarter" Their infectious rho domantades recruit from s-e idle and minimizing masses, numbers who swell the chorus wipe 'em out" Never a thought. never q consideration for the vested rights of others equally as law abiding citizens as themselves. never q calculation of the more than prob able results, alike detrimental and criTninally adverse to business inter ests. legally established and lawfully conducted; a business recognized as legitimate by our national govern ment; which business contributes to the expense of maintaining the laws a larger proportion than any other one conducted in this country.
 Is it consistent to "wipe-out" up- wards of one-half of our local revenues without a practicable showing to cover the deficit? Taxes cannot be levied upon Blind Tigers" and Blind Pigs" while the recovery of fines from them never leaves a surplus. Illegitimate traffic is by far the more baneful bringing into contempt the laws. un- making citizenship. de5asing manliness to a fearful degree. Let us have open and above board dealings in this as well as in all other vacations.
 The vegetarian knows CD that those csrniverously inclined are predIsposed to many ills from which he fancies he is immense. vet we do not hear them crying aloud for the wiping out Of the butcher shops.
 Specialized legislation is undemO- cratic, un-American. sapping the very foundations of our constitution.
 Let all true citizens stand together for the right. if a brother err let us try to convert and not attempt futile coercion.

EMINENT CHURCHMfN
 ON PROHIBIIORY LAW
Its Effect is to Force Them to Tester in Secret.
Bishop Hall of Vermont.

Prohibition drives underground the mischief it seeks to cure, making it more difficult to deal with the evil and impossible tO regulate the trade, as, for instance. in the quality of the liquor sold. The present law leads. believe in many cases, to heavier drinking in clubs and at home, liquor being pur- chased in larger quantities than would be the case if it were possible to pur- chase at d restaurant a glass of wine or beer
 Bishop Nicely of Maine.
 The clubs are simply a coterie of young mea who call themselves clubs and get together and have their bottles in their closets. l am sure these clubs have very bad effect. in that young men who never drank at all previously have done so in the secrecy Of the club. as they call it They would not be seen to drink over a bar, but they do it in the clubrooms"
 Bishop Clark of Rhode Island
 Prohibition has been disastrous to the cause of temperance"
 The Reverend Dr. Rainsford of New York, in discussing prohibition and the suggestion of coffee houses as a rem edy for the abuse of alcohol said: Are We fools and blind enough tO believe that We can suddenly eradicate an all most universal desire for alcohol. meet and overcome it with the presentation Of an occasional coffee house? No. Our treatment has to be much more radical than this. To drink is no sin. Jesus Christ drank. To keep a saloon is no sin. and any policy that claims the name of Christ or does not claim His name. that deals with the well nigh universal taste of man for alcohol on the basis Of law and order alone cannot commend itself to the best in telligence and is doomed to fall
