Cattle, Locusts and Railways.

In running railways in Brazil there
are two difficulties to contend with

the cattle manage to force their way
through and then cannot get out The

GENTLY So as the trains are often de
rallied by an OK being caught either
between the cowcatcher or cylinder
and the rail or even between the loco

such accidents are hardly ever serious.
LocustS are less common, but occa-

they come TO earth they may pile up

to bring the plate for printing the

BLAME PHYSICIANS FOR
GROWTH OF DOPE HABIT
Druggists Say Prescriptions and Not
Patent Medicines the
Cause.

New York.-Blame for the prev
alence and growth of the morphine
habit was placed on the shoulders Of
physicians, who prescribed the drug,
at meeting Of druggists here to-
night to protest against the recently
enacted city ordinance prohibiting the
sale at retail of any preparation con-
tanning morphine or its salts except
upon doctors prescription.
The ordinance is aimed primarily
at paregoric and at stomach remedies,
according to members of the board Of
health who were instrumental in OBJ
tanning its passage. Caswell Mayo,
one of the druggists, said he had
made a canvass by mail of several
sanitariums and the replies convinced
him 80 per cent. Of the victims of
drugs formed the habit as a result Of
using prescriptions given by physi-
clans and only per cent. from using
proprietary medicines.
