copies OF the newspaper containing the interview
with the chairman, who had said:

But this morning, Uncle Bill Holcombe appeared
before our committee and made eloquent, impas
stoned and convincing speech, that we We're com

all about the mariners there and the dangers that
they undergo; and with tears in his eyes he begged

Effects of Persistent Doping"

n OPE-takers manifest themselves in different types

From Disease to Bondage

A MOTHER illustrative case seems apropos at this
place. What is here related is of very
Occurrences the only difference being that all per-
who acquire drug habits are in the grip OF
deadly disease. A young OF about thirty
in the last stage OF consumption. He had been the
rounds OF physicians, climates and sanitoria that
beckon persons thus afflicted and had home
to die. A neighboring physician called in to
mitigate his final sufferings. The throat compiled
lions in this severe to preclude the
swallowing OF any food. AS tentative measure the
doctor gave hypodermic of morphine and under it's
benumbng influence the sufferer enabled
to take little nourishment. These hypodermcs
increased to two daily and still more food
ngested. The patient, badly enfeebied though he
lease life But the drug habit steadily grow
ing and before the physician aware of the fact
this unfortunate man, who at the beginning of this
form of medication seemed to have only few days
to live, had gained considerable strength and
clamorng for three four daily jabs of the little
hollow needle He able to sit up and dur
ing the day would anchor himself at window where
he could watch the comings and gongs of his DOCTOR
who lived only few blocks across the way In
very few days he had been put in bondage and his
physician looked upon his deliverer.
In this case hypodermic medication prolonged the
sick mans life some little time until narcotic
habit had asserted itself with great vehemence If
through lucky turn of the wheel of fortune this
should have been enabled to conquer deadly
disease he would have carried as memento of that
triumph habit that is often tnan death itself
Such procedures seem justitiable, however, when
death from wasting diseases inevitably
cation is often thrust upon individuals who in
no immediate danger and the lowered tone
that follows in it's wake makes them susceptible to
