STlMULANTS CAUSE
DEPRESSION

In the humdrum grind Of everyday
life we are exposed to fatigue, worry
and disappointment. and there seems
to be common tendency to turn to
some stimulant to cheer us up or
rouse us and overcome the tired feel
ing and lassitude. Modern eff
cheney has searched out the stimu-
lants and narcotics Of other lands.
We have the opium from India.
coca leaves from Peru, coffee from
Arabia. tea from China, wine from
France. hashish from Persia and
Turkey, whiskey from the bootleg
ger knows where, kola from Africa,
and cocoa from the West Indies.
Although the use Of stimulants
and narcotics has existed to some
extent since the beginning Of his
tory, it never was as universally
practiced as it is today. This is
largely because the average person
is undernourished in the important
mineral salts and he is easily ia
tigued because his body is unable to
obtain the required amount of oxy-
gen or to eliminate the toxins as
quickly as they accumulate.
The feeling of stimulation imme-
diately following the use of these
drugs is a delusion. They do not
add strength to the body--they
merely anesthetize our sense of ia
tigue. In doing this we paralyze
one of the most important defenses
of the body. We become fatigued
whenever the blood stream becomes
saturated with fatigue toxins to an
extent that they are dangerous to
the nervous system. By allowing
these toxins to accumulate still
more, which they do even though
we do not feel them, we may irrepar-
ably injure the brain or nervous sys-
tenn. The use of stimulants un-
doubtedly shortens the life and de-
stroys the appearance Of health and
beauty.
The temporary effect Of a stimu-
liant wears off quickly and then the
tired nerves, injured by an overdose
of fatigue poisons, cry out in all
their agony. This is the real cause
of the sick headaches and feeling of
melancholia of the excessive user of
opiates and the missries of the
drunkard the morning after over.
indulgence in intoxicants. The
nerves become more and more irri.
tated by the increasing accumulation
of toxins within the system as the
victim takes larger amounts of the
stimulant to destroy his feelings of
pain and uneasiness. Every stimu
liant is followed by the misery oi
after-effects.
Many people arc of the opinion
that it is dangerous to suddenly
stop the use of habit-forming drug
This is absolutely false. The person
who attempts to taper off the dosage
Of his drug will practically always

Washington, Nov. 23.- Flushed
not with victory but alternately in
fits of disgust for the past and
bursts of hope for the future, Sem
ator j. Boomboom McWhorter has
returned to sit and sit and sit in the
senate for another four years. Not
the full term of six years, mind you.
The election taught the senator
how to become the next president of
the United States. There is some
little satisfaction for him in that, of
course, but four years is a long
time and it is no wonder that, al
though the senator is often to be
found kissing himself in ccstacy
over his invaluable discovery, the
next moment is likely to find him
kicking himself because he didn't
figure it out before.
In that case, Senator McWhor-
| ter insists, he and not Herbert
Hoover would now be the president
elect. And he assures your corre-
spondent privately that he would
have wasted no time on trip to
South America prior to March a.

Dice games have been known to be

men. The stickups know that big
money is afloat, and may come in.
Hence the sinister aspect.
The game is staged beneath a
low-hanging and huge arc light.
The rest Of the room is cast into
shadows, or total darkness. A solid
square of backs are bent about the
table. At the head of the table
stands a shirt-sleeved figure, who
monontonously calls off the points.
They call him the "stickman," for
he passes the dice down the table
with a long stick, after the fashion
of the croupier. Also he pays off
for "the house" and settles any
arguments regarding the points
made.
The players are the strangest as
sortment Of humans that could be
caught under a single roof-bank-
ers, brokers, statesmen, burglars,
stickup men, gamblers, merchants,
lawyers, sneak thieves and pick
pockets. The smallest play allowed
is IS. And not a small percentage
of the dice tossers are the IS play
