Sold by PHIL aue iiruKKish Trade In Deadly Drug. After a long battle tbo pure food law b on trial, and, whllo Its efTectlvcneix la yet to la) proved, public opinion sus tains It as a Jnst measure and one that shonld bo n mended until It Is thorough ly effective. Recent reports as to the ve of opium and cocaine In this coun try Indicate lh.it there Is also abnndant missionary work to lx done In eradi cating banefnl habits, which are of comparatively recent modem develop ment here, by regulating and restrict ing the trade In drugs which foster them. It U now declared that the Im portation of smoking opium Into this country has Increased over 250 per cent tie last thirty years notwith standing that our Chinese population has decreased during that time. The Importations were greater In the four years from 1003 to 1007 by nearly a million pounds than during the four years immediately preceding. Statis tics gatlicred in our great cities show that there are ten white smokers of opium to one Celestial given to thlt habit Only 25 per cent of the products derived from opium nro devoted to legitimate Hes. rhyalclans report a dangerous Increase In the use of the drug by nerve wom men nnd women who prefer It lo tnltsccn or alcohol. Tho showing as to the Illegitimate use of cocaine Is also startling. Re cently the secretary of the New York Medical society declared that unprinci pled physicians foster the cocaine hale It, knnulug that It lends to divers physical Ills and hence lncrefl'ics their calls from this !.ih of patients. This Is a horrible charge, but there Is little room to doubt that physicians nre sometimes too ready to prescribe In emergencies drugs that nro liable to fusteti habits upon their users. The ue of Apparently harmless drugi makes the step easy to morphine and cocaine. Stricter surveillance over the retailers of drugs might check the re sort to habit forming drugs by Uie weak or the unwary. Some drugs nre peculiarly tempting for those who sock a present good nnd nre Indifferent to future rvenlts. Sufferers nre often unaware that some favorite remedy to which they resort liecnuse It Is cheap or agreeable contains a dangerous cle incut All goes well until the habit !s formed, nnd then warning conies too late. The only safe wny to escape wreckage of nerves and will throne' ho drug habit Is to aold the step that costs nnd not be misled by rellan, r upon the so railed drug habit nntldnto often only a swapping of evils.

One of the women, nn Amcrl can, has Just published a liook whk.li takes, the reader Into the wild haunts of zebras, gnus, giraffes, hyenas and Hons In central Africa. The whole trip was made In pnlaco ears nnd In stoamlioatH, nnd oil the terrors of the Jungle, except perhaps that lonely feel ing when one Is nailed there by fate were experienced. One lion shooting described by tin- writer Is n match for Roosevelt's liejr slaying feat In the wilds of Louisiana A huge lioness engaged In n race with the train nnd when tho train pulled up crouched In a clump of grass sev enty f-t away. All the men on the train rushed for their guns and looked to their ammunition, and "no one wa frightened" Is the nnlvo remark of tl." traveler, to whom this scene was very exciting. But the men were too slow or too long disputing over the honor of the first shot, and the lioness coolly leaped across the trnck ladilnd the train nnd disappeared In the Jungle little later another lion was seen close to the track near the station. It only remains to Imaglno Roimolt on tho train nnd all tho men giving way to the mighty American hunter who naturally must b the hero of his own Hon nhixttlng stories In order to earn his money.

Albany, N. Y., Aug. 23. Richard L. Hand of Elltabethtown, who was np Ktnted by Governor Hughes to take testimony and report his findings upon the charges filed against District At- irncy William Travers Jerome of New York county by a minority stockhold ers' committee of the Metropolitan Street Hallway company. In a report submitted to tho governor decides that not oue of the series of charges Is proved and declares that all are dls proved UHin tho evidence. He recommends the dismissal of the charges. A demand had been made for Mr Jerotnu's removal. Governor Hughes has not as yet act ed uiion Commissioner Hand's report. "My conviction upon the whole case. says the report, "Is that the respondent has been shown to have discharged the onerous duties of his ofllce with zeal and ability, having the public good as bis motive, anil that no Incapacity, In difference or neglect of duty has been shown In auj' case."

The charges in the main accused the district nttorney of alleged neglect of duty In not suffi ciently prosecuting alleged fraudulent acts of tho Metropolitan street and other railway companies of New York nnd also of the Insurance compaules as developed by the legislative Insur ance Investigation.

The Ileal Amtrlcan Woman. rrofessor ncrrlck's recent sweeping Indictment of American women Is not calculated to Increase the public re spect for the fraternity which ho rep resents. Only n small iwrcontago of tho women of this country nro greedy and Inordinately nmbltlous nnd withal shameless In their greed nnd nmblllon, Tho professor's remarks npply perhaps to certain of tho swagger nnd smart sets of the great cities who have boon enticed from allegiance to the prevail ing standnnls of taste and conduct by vanity, n falling ns old as the human race. Reports of the doings of women which got Into tho news nnd society press are n poor Index of the Ideals and tho morals of American women. Every aggregation of women where tho serious Hfo of the day Is being manifested contradicts tho notion that Uio sex la far gone tn frivolity, insin cerity and coarse pclflshncss. Consid ering tbo freedom of action allowed to young women by their guardians nnd to all women by the common consent of society, tho discretion and modera tion observed by tho mass of Ameri can women are not only noticeable, but commendable. They give tho He to that pessimism which pays that lltwrty In- rarlably runs to license. All over tho country women munlier- Ing many millions are devoting their tlmo and their talents to tho noblest pursuits which nro fostered lu this nge. If they were asked to practice tho per du! economies and grinding Industries of their grandmothers they would do It and succeed. It seems nt times In this matter of tnorul conduct ns though the great body of women make It n point to distinguish themselves before tho world ns tho vn- oppo lies of those weak nnd fooll whose doings furnish texts foi .iiithors of sensations. It must I o admitted that far too many young women who might Is) better itceuplisl nro Inclined to Imltnto tho swagger element Hut tho digression Is brief mid really nmounts to no more than the sowing of u crop of "wild oits" that nro not very wild cxi-ept In iipai-aiieo.

Tbo glory of the nn tlon Is Its women. Iss-.inso our Instltu lions foster a tioblo typo of woman hissl.

We can fnncr that wo boo the TurV swelling "hi, Ch,s,t with pride" nnd wowing up his muscle" as n sjmliot f valor when reading ih wonts nf Mundjl Rey, the Turkish consul gen eral, as he speaks of the new constitu tion proclaimed by the sultan. One of the first things, according to Mundjl, will lie the downfall of foreign Influ ence. The whole country Is the "sick man," not slmnlv tho sultan. It,, snvs that German predominance In com merce and industry In Turkey must tie checked and England dispossessed In -gJT- Tho new constitution cuarantees tho people free speech, a free press, n rep resentative legislature, and a reformed Judiciary, with ministers of state re- eponsiuie to the people. Rut whether this concession will elevate Turkey to rank as a world power may be ques tioned In rsplto ot Mundjl Bey'a enthu siastic prediction to this effect. The population of the cmulro Is made un of divers elements, nnd they are not a nappy ramily. rUrc blooded Greeks nnd Jews abound and havo irreat infln. ence. Then there are Italians, Kurds, Lopts, Slavs, Croats, Bulgarians nnd Aiuanians, besides the ever unhappy Armenians. The Albanians are vorr powerful In Turkey. Albanian wo men are handsome, and the men nre brave, nnd n German traveler has de clared that they have the lost heads In l-urope. Turkey's military Ideals come from the Alhanlans, w ho seem to hold the key to the situation nt present. Albanian soldiers have boon the sub" tan's reliance, and It was In nnsvvcr to their rebellious attitude that ho granted a constitution. The Albanians might rule Turkey If tho other races would agree. This thev will not do. and as these valiant sons of the hills have always been first In their own country In spite of the sultan's edicts tney will not lake second place In a transformed Turkey; hence the ih iiucal millennium will not eomo soon to Turkey even with a constitution to help It along. America Exploits tho World. Practically no hostility to Ameri cans or American Institutions," was tho message which Darwin P. Kings ley, president of tho New York Life, brought from Europe after a tour cov ering all countries. American machines are found In every city and through out the agricultural districts. Even It Spain he found Americans cordially welcomed, whatever the errand. Mr. Klngsley attributed this cordial feeling ot Europeans for Americana tc n general recognition over there ot tie Increasing Importance of the United States. Great things are expected of us In the way of government Improve ment, and, whllo there Is criticism. It Is done In a kindly way. And It would be Impossible for Europe to Ignore our Importance vera she supposed to bo envious or Jealous. Great Britain, Ger many and France take heavily ot out. cotton, and Italy and Spain buy in lesser quantities. These countries take our grain and animal products, also our live stock, which Is even moro widely distributed, reaching Asiatic Russia, tho Pacific countries and South Africa. According to the World'B Work, this country contributes one fifth ot the wheat, one-fourth of the hops, one-third of the corn, two-fifths of tho meat, nearly one-half the oil cake and oil cako meal, almost one halt of tho leaf tobacco, two-thirds of tho cotton and four-fifths of the cotton seed oil to International commerce.

Tho actions of some of tho park boards In largo cities tn barring 111 smelling autos from tho park drives Is not really tho bordshlp It might seem. Machines should not send out clouds of unpleasant odors, for when they are properly managed the nuisance from this nourco Is but slight In the open It would scarcely bo noticed. A llttlo pressure upon the owners of machines will causo them to use extra care. The smoke and the smell are duo to carelessness or Incompetence, and owners of machines may find that If they force their chauffeura to handle their motora properly In compliance with tho demands of the law they will get better results from tho same amount of fuel nnd also savo In the wear of the machinery.
