DOPE FIENDS SUFFERING
PHYSICIANS PERPLEXED SINCE
NEW LAW WENT INTO EFFECT.
Now Practically Impossible for Users
of Drugs to Get Cocaine, Morphine
on Opium to Satisfy Cravings.


of Drugs to Get Cocaine, Morphine
on Opium to Satisfy Cravings.
dope" fiends in Dawson are SUI
fering severe hardships as the result
of the recent federal law which went
into effect March 1st and makes it
almost an impossibility for the users
of cocaine, morphine or opium to sat
isfy their needs even from the drug
gists who sold it before that time.
These hardships are due to the TACT
that the dope habit, doctors say, fas-
tens itself on the victim even with
tighter grip than whiskey or similar
habits.
The physicians of the city have en-
countered numbers of difficulties and
expect more to follow when the sup
ply of the dope stored by some OF the
users and purchased before the fed
eraI law went into effect gives out.
1T is a hard matter to handle,
said one of the physicians. Some
cities, | understand, are having a Sc
we're task on their hands and have
established special wards in hospitals
for treatment of the dope slaves"
The men who passed the narcotic
law knew that there would be many
men and women with the elements
of good citizenship and womanhood
in their makeup who, trapped IN
their habit by the new law, would
suffer. Several of these sufferers are
trapped" here in Dawson. They can
get no more dope
1t may be necessary to make spe-
cial provisions to get an amount sut-
ficient to aid these unfortunates IN
breaking themselves of the habit.

REPLIES
TO UNDERWATER
Says Hope and Friendship
Companies Do Not Have
Short Runs

A known member of the Har-
risburg fire department has sent the
following communication to the Tele-
graph, asking that his name be with
held:
II read the reply of George w.
Booth, chief engineer of the National
Board of Fire Underwriters, printed
in the Telegraph and was very much
impressed with what Mr.. Booth does
not know about our fire department.
Take this statement from Mr..
Booth: That it would have been bet
ter to purchase new pumping engines
for hose companies Nos. / 0 and IA,
instead of tractors for apparatus. sta
toned in downtown houses, (Friend-
ship and Hope), where most of the
runs are short and automobile appa-
ratus has not much advantage in speed
of response over horse drawn
THE above statement shows how
little Mr. Booth knows about =the
short runs the Friendship and Hope
engines make.
The territory covered by the
Friendship apparatus is the largest
in the city with long and hard pulls.
They cover as far south as Lochiel,
a distance of one and three-quarter
miles Then they have the hill dis
a distance of two miles, mostly hills,
and every other point in East Harris
burg. They also cover the business
district and as far uptown as Boas
street, all on the first alarm, and Mr..
Booth has the temerity to say this
company's runs are short Forsooth!
And this same Mr. Booth assumes
to tell us all about the short runs
made by the Hope apparatus. l doubt
very much If he knows what he is
talking about Did he consider for
a moment the territory covered by
the Hope apparatus? ! think not. 1
will call to the gentleman's attention
the fact that the Hope engine covers
all the territory as far west as Divi-
sion street, a distance of two and one
half miles, via Second street, straight
run from. its fire house, and if they
have to make the run via Sixth street
another quarter mile is added. A nice
distance for two horses to drag a
10,000-pound machine.
"The best thing our city fathers
did was the placing of front drivers
on the Friendship and Hope engines,
notwithstanding the fact that Mr..
Booth did not recommend it,"

TO indulge in any habit or conduct or
speech which can annoy, wound or
dlsplease without good cause those
with whom we associate-that is the
platform on which we can easily build
structure of good manners.
While Ii is an excellent rule to
qualities and virtues, it serves a good
pass lightly over the faults of others
and to dwell upon their worthy
purpose to keep a little mental note
book of the things which annoy us
in others, but to keep these notes only
as reminders of the things we do not
wish ourselves to do or say
A man who was eager for an edu-
cation and who had acquired the
principles of correct grammatical ex-
preston was thrown much with illi-
terate people in his daily associations
After some years he became notable
for his elegance of language, and his
fine powers of conversation. He was
asked how he managed to avoid ac-
quiring the slipshod expressions and

This is an excellent rule for the

lie places or other disagreeable hab-
it's, should be observed and remem-
bered only as a guard to better man

METERS ARE READ
WITH SPECIAL CAMERA

Photographic reading of electric,
possible through the development OF
special camera recently introduced
for the use of public utility COM
panies. The reason for making meter
readings in this manner is to obviate
errors and disputes as well as to save
time and labor. The apparatus is
made in the form of an oblong box.
provided with a high grade lens and
simple automatic shutter which per-
mits the time of exposure to be varied
from one-fifth to one-half second, ac-
cording to working conditions. Four
miniature tungsten lamps provide suf-
ficient light for photogra phing meter
dials. Roll films permitting seventy
five exposures are used in the device,
while a chamber for carrying two ad-
ditional spools is provided. In making
readings with the instrument the front
opening of the camera is pressed
against a meter dial and a small lever
moved. This action automatically
turns on the light opens and closes
the shutter and finally extinguishes
the lamps. After each exposure the
operating lever locks automatically
against movement until the film has
been wound preparatory for another
photograph. The camera is shown in

Acquire Good Manners by Studying Others

for good manners. and a knowledge
of the right things to do. Then by
reading out of his mental notebook
the things which he has found dis
pleasing to himself in others. he can
soon acquire long list of the things
not to do.
Well-Modulated Voice Invaluable TO
Man
A well-modulated voice in men or
women and clear-cut, distinct
enunciation in speech are important
These can be acquired by a little
practice. Courtesy to older people
and to women is of great Importance.
The absence of haste or noise in the
partaking of food and the avoidance
of Longing attitudes at the table are
also important. In conversation with
our fellow beings there are two we'll
known quotations which may be SER
Viceable One is,
Three things observe with care;
OF whom you speak, to whom you
speak,
And how and when and where"
The other is-before repeating any
unpleasant news or disagreeable gos-
sip about any one, to ask ones self:
us 1t true. is it kind, is it neces-
sary?"
Sometimes an important statement
may be true, but 1t is neither kind
nor necessary to repeat. Sometimes
II is true and not kind, and yet nee
essary to repeat. 1t is necessary to
tell a woman with baby in her arms
if she is about to call at a house
where there is an infectious disease,
that such a condition exists within.
But it is only where there is necessity
to warn or where there is a possi-
bility of helping and changing the
existing conditions that one is really
justified in repeating and comment
ing upon the disagreeable and painful
things of life.
Good Manners Leave an Impression
Upon Observers
People who possess the refinement
of good manners always leave a pleas
ant and stimulating impression upon
those with whom they converse Even
in brief interview in which only the
ordinary events or happenings of
health and weather are touched upon,
the really good hammered individual
whose manners spring from a good
heart will find an opportunity to
leave an agreeable and Frightening
effect.
Dig deep in your heart first, young
man, then call your brain, your mem
ory, your powers of observation to
bear upon life, and you will need no
book of etiquette to direct you, al
though it may not. harm you to read
one.
