Chinas Use Of Opium

It is believed that Arabs introduced
the use of opium into China in the
Fifteenth century. 1t reached India
simultaneously. A Chinese author
states that il was under the Ming
dynasty, which reigned from 1878 to
1914, that the use became general Of
"the pill called Elixir Of Gold which,
used to excess, results in detriment
to the health" At that time the
opium consumed in China was grown
in the country itself; when the habit
of smoking became widespread, China
began 10 import considerable quaint
ties of opium from India The tohac-
60 of the philippines had been intro
duced inlo China in 1920, and il is
only since the Eighteenth century
that the custom has become general
of smoking the crude opium, instead
of the tobacco impregnated with
opium originally used by the mhab-
itants of Java and Formosa.

REAL LOVE LETTERS
THINGS OF THE PAST?
Modern Missiles Not Char
octerized by FerUency.

In these degenerate days, when to
be sentimental is to be silly. and when
we boast that we do not wear our
hearts on our sleeves the art of
writing love letter worthy of the
name is in danger of being altogether
lost, says London Answers.
The letter of today is. with rare eX-
ceptions, a mere business missive,
with few of the hopes and fears. the
heart throbs, the splendid sentiments
and rare, sweet raptures" that mod
ern lover feels just as much as his
predecessors did.
in former days it was a mans pride
and pleasure to pour out his very soul
Oh paper, in ardent homage TO the lady
OF his choice. On such of his letters
as survive, though their pages are Vel
low and the ink faded, the words still
burn with the tenderness and passion
that inspired them.
Thus, in one of the letters of John
Churchill, the great duke of Mari
borough, to Sarah Jennings, we read:
Il 90 love and adore you with all
my heart and soul-s0 much that |
do and will ever be better pleased with
your happiness than my own. But
oh, my soul If we might both be
happy, what nexpressible JOY that
would be! | VIII NOT dare to expect
more favors than YOU shall see fit to
give me; but, could you love me, |
think the happiness would be so great
that II would make me immortal"
Keats also was great lover He
wrote to Fanny Brawne: 81 never
knew before what such a love as YOU
have made me feel was; | did not he
lieve in it; my fancy was afraid of it,
lest it should burn me up. ! would
never see anything but pleasure in
your eyes, love on your lips and happi
ness in your steps.
My dear girl. | love you ever and
ever and without reserve. Tho more
have known the more have | low d
Even my iealousies have been agJnes
OF love; in the hottest fit | have ever
had 7 would have died for you. The last
Of four kisses WAS ever the sWeet, St
the last smile the brightest. the last
movement the @racefullest.'
william I1aZlitt's love letters. too,
have the authentic note. He wrote to
Sarah Walker: when | think of the
thousand of enduring caresses that
have passed between us | do not won
der at the strong attachment that
draws me to you. hear the wind sigh
through the lattice, and keep repeat
ing over and over to myself two lines
of Byrons tragedy:
So shalt thou find me ever at thy side
Here and hereafter If the last may be,
applying them to thee, my love, and
thinking whether l shall ever see thee
again Perhaps not-for some years
IT Ieast, till both thou and | are old
and then, when all else have forsaken
thee I will creep to thee and die in
Thy arms"
These are few extracts only from
the letters Of lOng-dead lovers, whose
delight it was to pour out their very
SOILS to the ladies whom they loved.
WHO can doubt that they were read
aud treasured with a joy which the
careless. cold blooded letters of the
modern lover can never inspire?
