ENTER THE MORPHINE KISS
Latest Form of Oscillation Is Prae. ticed in the Dope Cure" Ward in
 BrideWell Prison in Chicago.

Chicago.-Officers of the house ot correction in the bridewell prison have discovered the morphine kiss as the latest form of osculation practiced on inmates of the dope cure" ward
 A prisoner who is being weaned away from the morphine habit against his will is watched constantly by at tendants, but when a "dear" relative as his wife, sister or some other friend calls the prison authorities never have interposed any objections to long and lingering kiss. Now they find that during the long embraces and finger ing kisses perhaps as many as 50 or 60 grains of morphine are transferred to the patient.
 Authorities at the bridewell propose now to forbid kissing in the dope ward and thus prevent the smuggling of dream-provoking drugs.
