CINCINNATI, O.. Aug 5.--Lucy
Morris Is a confirmed dope fiend,"
with an Unsuitable appetite for opium.
And Lucy Is exactly eleven months
old!
Paregoric did 1t.
Doctors have talked Of the deadly
effects Of paregoric and other baby
remedies; chemists have oilated ON
their poisonous contents; statisticians
have even compiled figures of the ter
rfble mortality traceable to this dop-
Ing Of babies by their mothers.
But here IL q concrete ease-a story
In a photograph more powerful than
a thousand scientific lectures-the
story of Lucy Morris, dope fiend."
While the physicians at the City hos
pital are planning and scheming to
overcome Lucy's habit and save Lucy's
life, the little, white. emaoiated baby
cries by the hour-for opium.
She doesn't know 1t is opium. she

but the tender, rasped nerves still left
in the shriveled body won't rest with
out the poison now.
Lucy's case sets precedent In baby
annals. Usually they die when fed ON
a diet OF paregoric in doses to which
Lucy is accustomed. Her mother gave
her Is drops In dose.
Lucy isn't dead-yet.

and most dangerous drug for moth
ers to handle" declares DR.. ]. II.
lands, city health Office.
.Paregorfc may ease pain and make
a baby sleep, but 1t will never cure
declares DIR. Chas. Howard, hospital
physician. The longer it Is used the
more dangerous 1t becomes. It con.
tains about one grain OF opium
to every fluid ounce"
Lucy doesn't know this, OF course,
Her mother didn't, either. That's why
Lucy probably will die.
Is your child forming the paregoric
habit? Or any other medicine habit!

Burrows Had Nothing to
Do With P. 0. Matter

CHARLOTTE, Aug. 5.-The Tribune
says: The Tribune Is pleased to be
able to furnish fits readers this week
with the true. facts In regard to the
recent appropriation by congress
whereby Charlotte received 10000
for a postoffice site. In spite OF vari-
out attempts to give the credit to
Senator Burrows and Congressman
Gardner these gentlemen had nothing
whatever to- do with the matter, but
to Senator VIM. Alden Smith is due
the credit entirely.
Charles. Huggett OF this city Is pri-
yate secretary. to VIM. Alden Smith
and about two years ago he conferred
with his father, George Huggett, and
with J. M. c. Smith OF this city In re-
gard to the securing OF an appropria-
ton. and he then spoke to Senator
smith CONCERNING it. stating that Char
lotte had not even an appropriation
for a site for a federal building, and
he asked Mr.. Smith to introduce q
bill for Charlotte's benefit. Mr.. Hug
gett himself prepared the bill which
Mr.. Smith introduced at the extra SEES
sion of 1909. No general legislation
was considered and no postoffice ap-
propriation bill was introduced so the
bill was not considered at that time.

which. Congressman Gardner ia mem.
Der. has nothing whatever to do with
bills appropriating money for post Of

The appropriation bill OF the last
session of congress carrying the ap.

Chase 8. Osborn addressed large
crowd attracted to Berrien Springs
yesterday afternoon to attend the
thirty-third annual picnic of the
Young People OF Berrien county, the
Dig outing OF the year In this section
OF the state. Mr.. Osborn tabooed
politics but won the hearts OF his
hearers by his forceful plea for higher
citizenship. Congressman Hamilton
and Senator Burrows were the other
speakers. One OF the features OF the
Osborn campaign Is the warmth OF
the greeting the Republicans of Ber-
rien county have extended to the 500
man during his two-days' tour of the
county.
Splendid crowds have turned out TO
near Mr.. Osborn's message of good
government and his slogan Better
government by better men, Is meet
ing with the same hearty response II
mas In all other sections OF the state.
AT Niles upwards OF six hundred peo-
pie heard his speech and in fact the
osborn sentiment predominates in
Niles, st. Joe and Benton Harbor,
which represents over half of the en-
rolled Republican vote. At Water
veliet. where Mr.. Kelley was born, two
hundred voters, many from the sur
rounding country, turned out to hear
the 500 man. many OF the crowd
pledging Mr.. Osborn their personal
support at the close Of his talk.

who supported Gov. Warner, two years
ago, have not forgotten the yarn the
governor and Mr. Kelley told the voters
about the condition OF the treasury
xnd refuse to vote for perperuatfOn

Every Warner appointee In Berrien
county Is out plugging for Mr.. Kelley
which is sufficient proof to BARREN
county voters that Mr.. Kelley's repu-
dation OF Warner is not genuine.
Herbert r. Baker, OF Cheboygan,
chairman of the executive committee

panied Mr.. Osborn on his tour OF

speech at Nashville. said Whelan is
going through the state telling the
voters that the Warner-Kelley admin

The facts are, said Mr.. Baker. that
as speaker of the 1907 session Mr..
whelan stacked the committee on
state affairs to whom was given the
consideration of this bill and Ave
times he voted against taking the bill
away from the committee.

SOME WATER TROUBLES.
Difficulties Encountered by Officers in
CoIIectino Rates

Officials of the city connected with
the water board or acting under its
ordGs in making collections of water
rates have encountered several inter
esting and more or less puzzling sit
uations in the pursuit of their duties.
1t has been necessary recently TO shut
off the water supply of q number of
delinquent water consumers, until
such time as the amount due for water
is forthcoming. In one such case
which occurred during the past few
days, il was found that not only would
the supply Of the delinquent in ques-
ton have to be curtailed, but that in
doing so half dozen other occupants
of the same building and adjacent
structures, who we're paying their wa
ter rates regularly, would also have to
suffer. The cause of this state of af-
fairs was the fact that all were con-
nected on the same service pipe, lead
ing in from the street main, instead of
each building separately piped. Some
of the connections were made UNI
known the the authorities, the mains
being tapped without permits, ii is
claimed, so that the city is deprived
of the fees that should be coming tc
II from this source. BY having sever
al flats and stores on one line, il is
impossible to shut off the water sup
ply of one without affecting all on the
same pipe. working somewhat to the
injustice of those who are payine
their rates. The only method of avoid
ing this condition would be to make
each separate building. or set of apart.
ments have a separate street connec'
ton so that each might be taken care
of independently and without inter
fering with the others.
