THE MACON TELEGRAPH: SUNDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 14, 1894 ll THE BANE OF NARCOTICS Tha Ingenuity of Chemists and Phar macists Employed to Devise New Drugs, DR. LYMAN SPERRY'S LECTURES fnnoceut Mean* Through Which People Acquire the IIAbll of Using Narcot ics—The i roeru of “Bracing” ^ Should He Called Poisoning* Dr. Lyman B. Sperry makes a comfort able living by giving popular lectures on the subject of narcotics. For more than years bo has been studying tho proper ties of such drugs and their effects. Ho began his'work when-tho Minnesota stato board of education decided to provide in struction on tho ovil affects-of strong drink, and ho was sent to coach tho teach ers and preparo tho textbooks. Aside* from tho moral aspeot of tho subject ho found that both teachers and pupils wero •interested in tho forms in which various drugs were prepared and the degrees and differences in effect. In this way lio was led to glvo public lectured upon tho sub ject. While discussing tho subject in a gon- . eral way Dr. Sperry told a reporter that a corps of exports could not follow tho ra pidity with which narcotics were put upon the market in novel and ingenious forms. “Wo seem to bo living in an age,” ho Bald, “when drunkenness has bocomo a national disease and is paralyzing the ener gies of our people. J mean to apply tho term drunkenness 60 ns to includo tho opium and chloral lmblts and tho nower nnd more fashionable habit of using the thousand and ono powders and fluids sold at drug 6tores under tho names of pyrines and fcbrincs, calisayas, otc. I would place tho clgarotto habit among tho most harm* fill, because It certainly loads to mental exhaustion and thcnco to tho uso of moro powerful narcotics.” According to Dr. Sperry, tho cunning of man seems to have been turnod of late toward tho preparation of opium in insid ious forms. When n student at a medical collego, ho made a specialty of chemistry, nnd ho now employs his spare time in an- nlyzingnew headache powders, cough mix tures, cigarettes, patent medicines and candies, “just to see,” ho explains, “how tho devil is keeping up with tho times.” It was Charles Lamb who said, “If a glass of ardent spirits stood before mo, and I knew that eternal misery wero thoprlco of drinking it, I could not let it alone.” Nowadays tho art of disguising tho spirits Jbas progressed so tlmt n person may get the effects nnd lncldontally tho misery later without knowing oxactly what is happening. No two individuals are inflacnocd in precisely tho sarao mnnner and to precise ly tho eamo dcgrcco by nnv ono of tho nar cotics, and no two of tho' narcotics pro- duco precisely tho samo effect on any ono Individual. Tho ingenuity of man is therefore vory busy devising tho form of narcotic that will produce tho most desir able effect. An amount of opium—say two grains—which produces in one person profound unconsciousness, closely coun terfeiting sleep, may render another por- son excitedly wakeful, whilo a third may not bo noticeably influenced by it in any way. Dr. Sperry claims* that physicians have been innocently to blame in two ways for tho spread of the uso of narcotics. In tho first place, thoy start tho morphine or liquor habit by proscribing anodynes contain! n g tho drug for insomnia and nerv ousness. In tbo second place, thoy have in troduced persons directly to narcotism by utterly mistaking tho composition nnd effocts of now drugs said to bo harmless. “A few years ago,” said Dr. Sporry, * l tbe best physicianB of our country wero In an ecstasy of delight ovor tho discovery of chloral. At last thoy thought thoy had found o drug that would sootho irritated nerves nnd loave no unpleasant effects, eoraothing that would stimulate tho nerv ous system without deranging any of tho organa of tho body. Tho discovery had noon known but n very short timo before chloral was commonly prescribed by phy- Blolansall over tho country. There was n terrlblo awakening when it was discov ered that tho chloral habit followed close upon tho physicinn’fl prescription. “I do not think tho habit is quite su common as it wus, because chloral fiends Boon toko to opium to secure a moro per fect deadening of tbo norves. Tho physl- cians who indorsed its uso ns a method of nllaying pain wero nevertheless responsi ble for tho results. Aftorwurd camo tho discovery of cocaine, and again it was thought that tho ideal drug bad been found for certain purposes. In precisely tho samo way tho cocaine habit folllowed. Tho difference is that tho cocalno makes Its viotlms lnsano instead of producing tho long years of lingoring suffering from tho uso of opium. “Now wo havo physicians proscribing new scdatlvo powdors which are introduc ed almost weekly. It’is said that theso drugs leavo no bad effects. . I have found that in most instances the effocts are not obscrvablo for somo tlmo. A person with a bad headneho or troubled with insomnia may tako ono of tho many powders that go under tho na*no of pyrines, etc., and oxpcdenco very grateful relief. Tho pains disappear, a long and refreshing sleep fol lows, and*tho person is ready for solid Work. Tin; same remedy, which can bo purchased at all drug stores without a physician’s prescription, is used again and again when tho nerves are to bo quieted. There can bo but ono end, and that Ms a complete shattering of tho nervous sys tem, which leaves an easy routo to tho opium and morphine habits. “Tho advertisements in street cars, newspapers and druggists’ windows would indicate that there is an cpldemio of men tal and nervous exhaustion among tho American people. Tho causo Is not over work, as the advertisements say, but tho carelessness nnd ignoranco of our people in using alleged remedies which aggravate the trouble and cause a general breaking down. If it were possible to have a law requiring an analysis of all theso nervines to bo printed on tho labels, there would bo less talk about tho disposition of tho people of this country to work themselves into early graves. “Tho process known as‘bracing’ should be called poisoning. People of intelli gence and self respect seldom intontional- lytako enough of a narcotic to render themselves Incapable of rational, volun tary action, but so deluding and so de structive of tho power of self control Is the influenoo of narcotics, so easily iff tho reason dethroned and tho will paralyzed by them that for some persons to take even a small quantity os a stimulant or ‘nerve bracer’ means to continuo taking the narcotic until the stage of drunken stupor is reached.”—New York Sun. i For Horse* and Nobility.

A JUdltsl Departure From tho Manage ment Methods of the Old Regime. Plantations at the present day are con ducted very differently from the way they wore managed under tho old regime. Tho one I have In inind comprises something over 6,000 acres. Tho proprietor reserves about 250 acres for his own planting and rents out the remainder to small farmers, who give him so many pounds or bales of cotton for tho rent, in proportion to tho quantity and quality of tho particular piece of ground they cultivate, the size of tho bouse and corn house of which they have the use, etc. Muoh discrimination is required in tho selection of tenants, for defective or indifferent farming will im poverish tho land nnd endanger tho land lord's chances of collecting his rent. Most of the tenants Are negroes, 40 families of tlmt race residing on tho place. Of those there are a number who are ex cellent farmers, thrifty, industrious, prompt- in paying their obligations and thoroughly Interested in everything that portains to their business, tho wifo work ing as hard as her husband—harder in fact, because when her field work is ovor she cooks the slmplo meals, washes tho clothes and patches tho garments for her numorous family by tho blaze of a light wood torch after tho members of tho household are rolled In their rcspectlvo “quilts” and voyaging in slumborlaml. Sho docs moro than tills, for sho raises chickens and turkeys, sometimes geeso nnd ducks, using tho eggs for pocket mon ey and to obtain tho tobacco which is as hcccssnry to her comfort as to that of her hhsbahd nnd sons. Tho majority, of tho negroes go to work in tho early morning, with no breakfast or perhaps only a crust to nibble on. When they como In at 13 o’clock a stir about is made—a dish concocted of corn- mcal, salt and water and looking very much ns tho namo suggests—of which all tho family partake, tho older members oating nh “allowance ” of bacon. Any luxuries they may enjoy appear at tho evening meal, such as coffee, flour, oto. Usually, however, their faro is of tho sim plest and cold water their bevomgo, oxcepfc on Sundays and high days, celebrated usu ally with reference to some religious festi val. Toq much credit cannot bo given these hardworking wives and mothers, who hoo, rako, cook, wash, ohop, patch and mend from morning until night. Vory often garments, will bo patched until scarcely a trace of the original foundation matcriul cau bo seen, and there are many cases where tho wifo is much tho better “cotton choppor” of tho two, and her woTk far more desirablo than hor hus band’s.—Boston Transcript. A GREAT HEAD FOR FIGURES. Berah Colburn, the Most Remarkable of All Mathematical Prodigies. Borah Colburn (born at Cabot, Vt., Sopt. 1, 1804; died in Norwich, Vt., March 9, 1840) was tho most wondorful of all tho mathematical prodigies. His rcmarkablo Powots bccamo manifest as soon as ho was old enough to talk, and by tho tlmo ho was 6 years of ago ho was tho wondor of both Europo and America. In 1812, when ho was only 8 years old, ho was taken to London in order that the great mathema ticians of tho British metropolis might try his powers. This was dono to thoir satisfaction nnd with tho following re sults: * Ho raised any number consisting of ono figure progressively to tho tenth power, giving tho result, not from memory, but by actual multiplication, fastor than tho person appointed to keep record could sot down tho figures. Next ho raised tho fig ure 8 successively to tho sixteenth power, naming tho last result, which consisted of 15 figures, almost instantly, overy figure being found by “proof” to be right. On being asked tho square root of 100,920 lio answered 327 before tho recorder had tlmo to writo down tho numbor to bo squared. Ho was thou required to find tho cube root of 2(18,8:10,1-1, and with celerity tlmt was really startling replied that it was C45, whereupon tho nstronomcr Young, who had been well drilled In mathematics in probloms where “billions” were ban- dlod as often us “hundreds,’’ spent 45 minutos in'proving tho correctness of tho answer. Ho was then asked how many miriutes there wero in 48 years, and be fore tho question could bo written down replied that there were 25,228,800 nnd im mediately after gavo tho correct num ber of seconds-in tho samo period of time. On being requested to give tho factors that would produce tho number 247,483 ho im mediately named 041 and 203, und it was afterword learned that thoy are tho only two numbers tho multiplication of which will give that result. Ills taskmasters next proposed that ho glvo tho factors of 36,088, but without seeming to reflect a single raomdht ho replied that It had none, whioh was really tho caso, that being ono of tho prime numbers. Ho was asked next to name tho square of 099,999, n feat which ho performed in nine seconds by twice multiplying tho square of 37,037 by 27, tho answer being 48,960,602,000,040. Remember that these foats in matlio- motics wero all performed by a boy threo months under 8 years of ago.—St. Louis Republic. Candy I* poison.

A sober resident ill a small village on tho coast occasioned quite a commotion by saying that the bodies of threo children had fust been washed ashore. The inhab itants were indignant when, after much in quiry, the sober resident said: “I tell you thoy were. They wero washed ashore by their mother.

A Bachelor’s Experience That Decided Him on the Matrimonial Question. Miss Caxton la Junoesque. She is big. Jorleyonoo called hercowlike, but I think that was after Jorley had been refused by her. Sho is placid in a lofty sort of way— placid in tho style that is indifferent to annoyances. Sho never sees anything dis agreeable. Jorley calls it stupidity. Some times sho doesn’t seo other things. I’vo known her to fall to appreciate somo of my jokes. But women havo no sense of humor at best. Thoy only giggle hyster ically over babyish things. I was not particularly drawn to Miss Caxton, 1 confess. Sho doesn’t magnetize or fascinate. But sho would wear well. I took Miss Caxton to drive ono day. T?he horses wore lino. Their coats shone in tho light, they wero eager and light spirited, and I enjoyed tbo thought of managing them. Miss Caxton was big and perfectly dressed. The drive began well. “Do you enjoy driving!”. I asked her. It is well to know a little of tho ta9tes of tho woman ono contemplates marrying. “Very much," said she placidly. That was her one response to almost all my questions. Sho enjoyed sailing, and the opera, nnd tho Alps and clambnkes and Longfellow “very much.” On the other hand, sho “didn’t care for” tennis, rowing, walking, Browning, mackerel and social soienco. Somohow hor lack of a vo cabulary annoyed me. I tried to foroo her to say something else—to reveal herself, as It were. “Do you havo all those vague, sorrow ful feelings most of us common mor tals feel when wo are by tho sea!” I asked, inanely enough I admit. “I like tho sea very much,” said Miss Caxton. I ground my teeth and gavo tho reins a jerk wbloh mado the horses suddenly rear. In threo seconds moro wo were In danger. Tho fiery steeds wero prancing madly off, rearing and plunging horribly. “Keep perfectly still,” I said, and for a wonder tho girl obeyed. Tho road was fairly direct and broad. If I could but get control of tho beasts before we dashod into something or met a veliiclo at somo crossroad, we might save ourselves. I bent every nerve to tho task, hut It was useless. The off horse was foaming violently at tho mouth. Sudden ly he turned slightly and mado for tho placo where the builders of a summer cot* to go had left a small mountain of bricks and stono. There were pots of mortar and quicklime among tho debris. In an Instant I flaw us mangled, scaldod. I dropped tho reins. I seized her—heavon only knows how I bad the strength—and almost flung hor, as I would a parcel, ovor the side of the tearing, swaying carriage. Then I jumped. In another momont tho horses nnd tho carriago und tho stone and mortar wero an Indistinguishable mass. Sho was badly bruised, but that was nil. I sprained my arm. As wo jogged homo behind a farmer’s liorso I begged her to forglvo mo for having jeopardized her life. “Oh, certainly,” sho answered. “But, do you know, Mr. Northondor, I don’t caro muoh for runaways.’* . • I shall not ask Miss Caxton to marry mo. Jorley was right.—New York World. WHERE OLD FURNITURE GOES. Furnished Flats Absorb Much Tliut Used to Go to Secondhand Dealers. “Whufc becomes of all tho old furni ture?” Bald an auctioneer in responBO to u question. “Secondhand stores get somo of it, but not as muoh us thoy did former ly. Tho auction rooms havo tho call now adays. There ore 100 auction rooms in New York whoso wagons uro continuously busy hauling second hand-furniture from liousos nnd flats. The pcoplo have recog nized that tho secondhand dealers won’t pay as much for it n3 thoy nro likely to get from auction sales. Within tho Inst few years a certain class of persons havo gono into tho business of renting furnish ed flats and apartments. I know of ono woman who Jins 40 of these on her bauds, and sho is getting rich Hat. Iler invest ments in this lino pay her on an averogo over 100 per coufc. “Take, for instance, a flat in tho chcupor neighborhoods. An $18 or $20 a month flat of five or six rooms can bo furnished pluinly for $75—that Is, you can buy sec ondhand furniture enough for that sum to furnish the placo throughout. You pay $18 for tho rooms unfurnished and rent them for from $25 to $28 furnished. And whon tho tenant loavus and you desire to Bell you can realize almost as much at auction ns you paid. Now furniture be comes secondhand us soon as used and bells as such. For that- reason all furnish ed flats contain secondhand furniture, which may havo passed through tho auc tioneer's hands a dozen times.”—Now York Sun. OH. WIIAT A COUGH!
