BLAME PLACED ON PHYSICIANS
Growth of Drug Habit In United states
Alleged to Be Due to Opiates
Ordered In Prescriptions.

That 90 per cent. of all the cocaine
and morphine manufactured In THIS
country is used by persons VINO havs
formed the drug habit through pnysr
clans prescriptions Is the starting
statement made by DR.. L. F. keblcr'
Chief of the Division of Drugs, Depart
ment of Agriculture. This statement
and others, proving that physician'
and not patent" medicines are re.
sponsible for the appalling growth OF
drug addiction in the United States
was made by DR.. Kebler in an address
at Washington, before the American
Society for the Study Of Alcohol and
Narcotics.
DR.. Kebler is quoted by Washington
papers as having declared that drug
using had increased 100 per cent. In
the last 40 years, and that American
medical men were not discriminating
enough in their use OF opiates. Their
overindulgence to their patients, he
said, is creating thousands of drug
users every year.
'It is a very sad thing to say that
our physicians are doing the greatest
work in promoting the use of cocaine
End morphine" said the doctor. state
laws are not saving the public from
the grip of the drug habit, and the
American public is sinking tighter
and tighter into the black abyss OF
the morphine and cocaine fiend.
"The worst of it is that the impor-
tation of opium into the country Is
becoming larger and larger year by
year. l have heard it said on reliable
authority that SO per cent. Of the CO
caine and morphine manufactured In
this country is used by persons who
have formed the habit through doc
tors prescriptions"
Almost simultaneously with Dr. Keb'
ler's address, DR.. ]. A. Patterson, at
Grand Rapids, Michigan, in public
statement said that 10 out Of every 20
patients who come to an institution
with which he is connected for treat
ment for the drug habit owe their
downfall TO physicians prescriptions

tug to steam forward and make as

CHAPTER ~.
Mr.. Van Camp Makes a Call.


Aleck Van Camp turned from the
clerks desk, rather relieved to find
that Hambleton had not yet made his
appearance. Aleck had an errand on
his mind, and he reflected that Jim
was apt to be Mlapetuous and reluc-
tant to await another mans conve-
nience; at least, Jim wouldn't per
ceive that another mans convenience
needed to be waited for; ane Aleck
had no mind to announce this eriGad
from the housetops. 1t was not a
business that pertained, directly, ell
Their to the Sea Gull or to the coming
cruise.
He made an uncommonly careful
toilet, discarding two neckties before
the operation was finished. When all
was done the cravat presented a
stuffed and warped appearance which
was not at all satisfying. even to
Alexis uncritical eye; but the tie was
the last of his supply and was, per
haps, slightly better than none at all.
Dinner at the club was usually a
dull affair, and to Mr.. Van Camp. on
this Monday night, it seemed more
stupid than ever, The club had been
organized in the spirit of the English
clubs, with the unwritten bylaw of alb
solute and inviolable privacy for the
individual No wild or woolly manners
ever entered those decorous precincts.
No slapping on the shoulder. no hall
fellow greetings, no chance dinner
companionship ever dispelled the aw-
full penumbra Of privacy that sur
rounded even the humblest member.
A mans eating and drinking, his com
ing or going, his living or dying were
matters only for club statistics. not
for personal inquiry or notice.
The result of this habitual attitude
on the part of the members OF the club
and it's servants was an atmosphere
in which a cataleptic fit would scarce
w warrant unofficial interference;
much less would merely mawkish or
absent-minded behavior attract atten
ton. That was the function of the
club-to provide sanctuary for per
sonal whims and idiosyncrasies; OF
course, always within the boundaries
of the code.
On the evening in question Mr.. Van
Csrnp did not astually become silly
bne his manner lacked the poise and
seriousness which sophisticated mer
are wont to bring to the important
event of the day He was as near being
nervous as Scotch-American Var
Camp could be; and at the same time
an unwonted flow of life and warmth
in his cool veins. He went so far a:
IN make a remark to the waiter which
he meant for an affable joke, and ther
wanted to kick the fellow for taking
IL so solemnly.
"You raind yourself. George. q they'l
make you abbot OF this monaster!
YETI" said Aleck. as George helpet
him on with his evening coat.
Yes. sir. thank you. sir. sai'
| George.
He left word at the office that Ii
case any one csliied he was to be In
formed that MIR. Van Camp would re
turn TO the club for the night; then
in his silk hat and generally shining
toys. he set forth to make call. HI
was no stranger to New York. an
usually he took his cities as the
1 come. with a matter-of-fact nonchs
