DRUGS HAVE AN ATTRACTION
Remarkable How Many People VIII
Take Almost Any Remedy That
% Offered to Them.

A very interesting phase OF human
Psychology In its relation To the taking
OF drugs is illustrated by n series OF
poisoning cases In the middle West. A
number OF persons received free sam
pies" of remedy through the mails
and quite n few OF the recipients pro-
ceeded to take doses Of Il, some OF
them with fatal results.
There are a great many persons who
viii take any remedy that is offered
or recommended to them. Free sam
pies Of drugs Of which the recipients
know next to nothing are swallowed
in large quantities every day in this
country II seems impossible, but u
is true.
When q colored maid OF all work
presents herself TO a doctor with a
large bottle of medicine to ask him
whether he thinks there Is anything
the matter with her for which that
medicine might be good IL seems a
joke. Such things have been known
to happen more than once, and there
are a large number OF persons sup
posed to be far above the colored
maid in mentality, and still more In
common sense who present the same
attitude of mind toward free samples
OF medicine that may come into their
hands. Could anything be more fool
fish?

LEcTURING ADAM AND EVE
Somewhat Humorous Painting In Ger.
man Church, Work Of Artist Of
the Middle Ages.

In the Church Of Saint Sebaldus at
Nuremberg there is a delightful mural
painting which makes one merry even
to recall It. The subject In the Garden
OF Eden. Adam and Eve are being
lectured by an elderly man in flowing
robes with a long white beard. His
beard alone would more than supply
Adam and Eve with the covering they
lack.
In as easy attitude. with neither
haste nor anxiety, he IL pointing out
to them the error Of their ways. He
IL an detached In manner az though he
were a professor lecturing at Leipsic
on the fourth dimension OF space.
Adam is somewhat detected and re-
clines upon the ground. Eve, un-
abashed. with nothing on but the ap-
pie she In munching, is evidently in a
reckless mood. She looks like a child
OF fifteen, with her hair down her
back: the defiance of her attitude is
that Of q naughty little girl.
The world-old problem Ii under dis
cussion, but with an air OF good hu-
NOR and cheerfulness on the part OF
the lecturer. as though there were still
time I'm the world. as though hurry
were an undiscovered human attrib-
ute. as though possibly the world
would still go on even II the problem
were left unsolved, and this first leafy
parliament adjourned sine die.-New
