ONCE-OVERS

THERE are some persons in
L whose presence you feel un-
comfortable.
Is it because you feel that you
are inferior?
Possibly they are superior to
you but perhaps you possess cer-
tain qualities more praiseworthy
than they.
Perhaps they have a strong de.
sire to be as talented as they
think you.
They know they cannot do as
well as you along certain lines,
but it does not make them un.
comfortable, self-conscious and
unhappy.
They would not admit you are
superior because Of your higher
degree of proficiency in some
things.
If you have been straight, If
you have made the most of your
opportunities and used what abil.
ity you have, you should not per-
NIT yourself to be awed by those
who have perhaps had greater
advantages than you.
If you are a failure through
lack Of ambition and effort you
deserve no sympathy and it is
not surprising If you have an in.
feriority complex.
You must remember that the
most intelligent and most trav.
eled and best educated persons
are the least apt to feel superi.
ority.
So what do you care about the

You pay one debt by standing

Trouble is, that the debts seem

Then that proves the fallacy
Of your method.
Suppose you try to cut ex-

lists.
Don't pare off so much as to
make it impossible, or foolish.
But retrench, slightly, in every
way.
It won't be long before you

Even a slight retrenchment,
brings you to a more acute sense
Of your needs, along certain lines.
With a keener sense Of what
your life or business demands, you
can, perhaps, take a slightly

Very likely you will get just

and so much satisfaction out of

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DR.. Louis E. Bisch.

NOTHING could possibly be
AN more torturing than acquir-
ing a drug habit. particularly Of
a drug with narcotic effect.
And 1t is astonishing how read.
lily some individuals acquire such
habits. the habit taking hold and
becoming an obsessing nightmare
before they are scarcely aware
of it.
That is why physicians are
loath to administer or prescribe
drugs like morphine unless it is
absolutely necessary and no other
drug will do as we'll for the pain
or whatever the condition requir-
ing such drastic treatment may
be.
Morphine is derived from
opium.
In small doses it produces a
quieting effect and may be a
pain killer. 1t also tends to
make the mouth dry. After
effects may be headache, loss of
appetite and constipation.
In repeated doses or in large
doses, morphine produces a state
of excitement which is followed
by sleep. The mouth may be-
come so dry that swallowing is
difficult. Often the patient be-
comes nauseated and vomits,
Naturally there is confusion,
and the head feels dizzy. The
pupils become small and the
pulse slow. The alleged won
derful mental images said to go
with morphine are largely fic-
titious.
Cocaine taking may also be-
come a habit. Cocaine is the
active principle of the coca plant.
1t stops pain and is useful in
minor surgical operations If prop.
erly given. 1t may be applied
locally, hence the expression
among doctors. doing the opera.
tion under local.
Cocaine stimulates mentally
and causes unrest and excite.
ment.
Nicotine should be classed as
a habit-forming drug. 1t is the
alkaloid found in tobacco. 1t
may cause indigestion, heart irri-
liability and palpitation, depres-
sion and fainting spells. It is
held by some TO impair the mem
ory. 1t often interferes with the
proper assimilation of food and
therefore hinders nutrition.
When the habit of taking
narcotic has taken hold, espe-
cially in the case of morphine, CO.
caine and heroin, the sufferer no
longer gets any benefit whatever
from taking the drug except to
relieve the terrific craving and
the abdominal pains and exces-
sive restlessness and worry that
goes with being deprived of reg
ular dosages.
Furthermore, nothing leads to
such mental, physical and moral
degradation so swiftly as do the
narcotics.
Physicians cannot be too care
full in prescribing habit-forming
drugs nor patients in taking
them.
The treatment of a drug ad.
dict is a long and harrassing ex-
perience and some hold that COM
plete cure is impossible.
But it is not morphine and
others like it that one must be
careful of alone. One can read
lily form a habit of taking other
non-narcotic drugs although the
drug itself does not specially pre-
dispose to habit.
