Democracy. It contemplates a re

Keep 011 Wl.h llcr tlpium.
This story comes to the Now York
Sun from one of that city's best-
known physician*. For reasons that
aro obvious the proper namo of the
woman is withheld.
••She is a divorcee," tho physician
said, "and is quite well known In
society. She is good-looking, clever
and rich, but for a long time was
addicted to the use of opium. The
habit grew so strong that her rela-
tives advised her to go to somo
sanitarium for treatment. For a
long time she refused to do ibis, but
when they threatened to have hor
continod in some asylum, she yielded
and camo to our retreat.
"Sho brought a nurse with her, a
clever, bright-faced girl, whom she
paid foO a week to wait 011 hor We
wero all greatly surprised, as the
days went by, to note that sho did
not seem at all depressed, as most
people are during the llrst few weeks
of abstinence from tho tlrug. Sho
.seemed as bright and as cheerful as
on tho first day. I said to her onco:
•' - You don't seem to miss your
opium.'
" 'No,' siio suid with a smile. *lt
ti id uot have such a hold upon mo as
I thought it did.'
"One day, after she had been
thero over a month, wo discovered
by moro accident what had kopt her
so cheerful. One of our attendants
caught her in tho act of taking
opium. When we asked her where
she had obtainod the drug, sho re-
fused. ut first, to toll. After a littlo
urging, however, sho told us that
she had brought a lot of opium with
hor.
• The matron searched her room,
and when sho camo to tho olfleo to
report sho was almost speochless
with amazement. The woman had
hidden little packages of opium in
every conceivable part of all her
dresses. There was opium in tho
slocvos, in the rufiles, in tho laeo, in
tho lining and in every pocket. There
was opium sowed inside her garters
and in her undergarments She
oven had opium in the papers which
sho used to curl her hair.
"It was her maid's duty, we
learned, to administer ibis opium to
her in such a way that wo would not
detect it. The young girl always
curled her mistress' hair and took
care not to spill any of tho drug in
tho curl paper.
"That maid was promptly sent
homo. Ilcr mistress wus relieved of
nil her clothing and was supplied
with new dress *s and placed in an-
other room. For several weeks sho
underwent tho depressing experi-
ence of all who break oil the habit.
All her brightness and good nature
vanished tor a while. She is now
cured. however, and is married
again."

that a Chinese opera is like no other

possibly a million iron tanks falling

bones. Thero is 110 scenery in it,
and tho orchestra in its shirt sleeves
occupies tho back of the stage. When
any player's back hale gets adrift,
owing to excessive exertion, tho or-
chestra rises up and fixes it and
then goes back with un air of calm
unconsciousness to its instrumcnt-
Tho orchestra consists partly of a

strument which makes a cry like an
