CHEW CORDITE
FOR STIMULANT

LONDON, Eng. - Officials of the
ministry OF munitions have discovered
that a good deal of the drunkenness
attributed to women and comparative
ly young girls Is due to another anG
hitherto unsupported cause.-The chew
ing of cordite, the smokeless explosive
used In the shell and cannon and the
ammunition Of small arms. The ex
plosive Is being used as sort OF
'pIck-me-up" by the tired munitiou
workers but its effect on their health
Is very injurious and remedial meas
ures are being taken by the authori'
ties. zs=" --... ..ng H..
Cordite when chewed; has all the
exhilirating effects of a highly stimu,
lating drug and cannot be tempered
with except at great risk. Its effect
on the nervous system are immediate,
ly and ultimately deadly. Besides, like
all such drugs 1t hes to be taken In
increasing quantities ii the exhilira
ton is to be maintained. Y
The effect OF cordite as an "intoxf-
cant" was first discovered during the
South African war. Some British SOL
diers found to their surprise that by
eating cordite they could get all the
excitement of the most powerful mar.
cotic and all the terrible effects too.
Cordite consists roughly of about IS
parts Of nitro-giycerine, 81 parts gun
cotton and five parts of mineral jelly.
Each cartridge contains so cylindrical
stands Of cordite.

tons experimental ON himself by suck
ing strand. He found that 1t tasted
sweet. pleasant, and pungent, but it
results in giving him the most raekling,
splitting headache. and 1t lasted for SO
