The peyote bean tastes bitter.

Thc.Bcan With a Kick;
Its Life and Habits
The pejote bean is sp called be
cause its name is Lophophora Wll
llainsil. It's n plant of tho cactus tribe,
flourishing In desert lands. (The U.
S. on and after July 1.)
Tho peoto bean has n passionate
nature, niVl bears no relationship to
th haughty bean of Boston.
The shoots of the plant contain
the kick.
The kick brings amailng color
vision. Monkcjs becomo a riotous
pink, elephants a delicate green, gl
nifTrs a baby blue with bushy tails
of purple.
Some bean!
fly through the nlr, and the green rays
of the pink stars illuminate the dull,
brown lake 'beyond, on which golden
elephants callqp in pursuit of purple
whales.
Time passes cither slowly' or Tcry
rapidly. Tho mind may wonder through
jears in tho actual running time of ten
seconds flat, and, again a day may seem
like a second. One cmi ncicr tell, be
cause the pcyoto bean ncur acts the
same.
Tho pcyoto bean Is tho common
namo given by the Mexicans to the
tender sprouts of the lyophophora
Williams!!, a plant of the cactus fam
ily. The bean looks innocent, ennugn.
But its effects arc what tho prohibi
tionists want to guard ng-ainst.
With the approach of prohibition, the
nntl-liqtior leaders fear that somo of
the present users of intoxicants ma)
turn to other forms of narcotics. Legis
lation has been asked to prohibit the
sale and use of tho peyotc benn.
Different from Boston Variety
The peyotc bean is in no way related
to the Boston bean.- Growing on tho
desert 'lands of Arfona, New Mexico
and Meilco.'it has, n passionato south
cm temperament. The Bostpn bean ty
cold nnd haughty.
The Mexican Indians first discovered
tho effects of the peyotc bean. The
practice of partaking of tho bloom of
the plant first became common nmong
the native tribes from the Arkansas
rhcr as far south as the City of Mex
ico. After July 1 the prohtblilonlsts can
not even estlmnto how far north the
bean will bring its color visions and
loss of tho sense of time.
Dr. Ilebcr W. Youngken, professor
of botnny at tho College of Pharmacy,
said today that the bean is not safe
to employ without further imcstlgatton.
"The effect upon the Indians is far
worse than beer would 'b"e," Doctor
Youngken said. "While tho user is
under the influence an cxhllarntlng sen
sation develops first. The individual
has no -sense of tliiic nnd has color
lslons. This effect is followed by a
depressed feeling."

other observers. According to-the en
cyclopedia, nd dlsagrceabla reaction is
produced by the bean.
"Tho effect Is to exhilarate nnd Inten
sify tho imaginative faculties, producing
n pleasant dreaminess," the encyclope
dia states, "Homo obscrvors assert
that, tho moral tone of tho users is
heightened find that the bean effectively
checks tendencies toward alcoholism. "
"Tho main axis of tho plant grows
underground," Doctor Youngken said.
'From the axis shoots appear above the
ground. The ends of these shoots are
what aro commonly called tho peyotc
benns. They are button-like or diak
pimped nnd from ono to two Inches in
diameter.
"Tho heads' of the sprouts nrc cut
green, and then dried in tho sun. When
prepared, they resemble mushrooms in
appearance." "
Dr. Youngken said that the beans
have been Bold'ln tho Mexican markets

Will a Slaughter of Jews
BeNextEuropeanHorror?
While the sporadic persecutions and massacres of Jews in Russia, Poland, Roumania,
and the Ukraine, already reported, arc disturbing in themselves, they are but scattered sparks
compared to the conflagration some observers foresee. Thus William G. Shepherd, in a Paris
dispatch to the New York Evening Post, says that not only leading Jews in France but even
notable Russian authorities, including Kerensky, "admit the possibility that the next Russian
horror will consist of attacks on Jews." In the course of a dispatch from Paris a correspondent
to the New York Day, a Jewish paper, says regarding the massacres in the Ukraine that "the
purpose is apparently to exterminate the entire Jewish population."
Regarding the reported persecution of Jews in Poland, Rev. Dr. H. Pereira Mendes, of
New York, declares that that country "is now at the bar of the world's judgment, for theworld
has to choose between Turkish atrocities in Armenia, German atrocities in Belgium and Polish
atrocities in Poland." ?
Poles in New York, and the new Polish Premier Paderewski, deny that pogroms have occurred in Poland, and
characterize these charges as anti-Polish and pro-German propaganda. To substantiate these denials the Polish Infor
mation Bureau cites Dr. Vernon Kellogg, recently returned to New York from Poland, who in an interview published
in the New York Times stated that wliile "there were constant rumors of difficulties of one kind and another between
the Jews and the Poles," he did not find evidence of any widespread massacres.
