The .most obvious deduction is that the crisis will grow more rather than less acute. When one out of every twenty-fiv- e adults is addicted to some g drug or other a country of even 100,000,000 population is drifting toward the abyss. habit-formin- of the evil is empha-sizewhen we consider that out d of 1,000,000 addicts nearly 100 per cent must be classed as fiends, whereas at the very height of the liquor evil there never was a time when the drunkards formed a very large percentage of those who used intoxicants. There were gradations among drinkers that do not exist among drug addicts, although, of course, some drugs are more ruinous than others to mental and moral fibre. Cocaine causes mental and moral debasement quickly and most of its addicts go to their death within a few years. Opium, in fact, has been used by some from youth to old age and it has been said, with what truth we know not, that a majority of the inhabitants of Central Asia were accustomed to take a. quarter or a half grain of opium daily without finding it necessary ,as do the whites, to increase the -- dose. The treasury departments report states that the imports of cocoa leaves, from which cocaine is made, have grown steadily. Thus it has been possible to supply greater and greater quantities of the drug to addicts despite state laws and the national laws which are backed by an elaborate secret service. it is not without inIN this connection terest to note that a drug if pe- . -- The teacher was giving the class a natural history lesson on Australia.

The word peyote is derived from the Aztec peyotl, meaning caterpillar, and the use of peyote has been handed down to the redmen of the west from their ancestors of the days before the coming of the paleface. Several species of the plant are used, as the encyclopedia tells us, by minimi BINGHAM and GARFIELD The mental exhilaration. League ,which is said to have unsheathed its snickersnee to hunt down Demon Peyote, will be pained by this additional quotation from the encyclopedia: Many observers assert that the moral tone of the users is heightened and that it (peyote) effectively checks tendencies toward alcoholism. In recent years the ceremony, a peyote religion, has spread through Oklahoma and northward among the Plains tribes. We know nothing about the encyclopedist who wrote those tempting words. He, may be a peyote addict himself. At any rate we seem to detect a peculiar kind of mental exhilaration in his description of peyote as a first aid to the ten commandments. If peyote checks alcoholism and heightens the moral tone by all means we should invite it in from the prairies and mountain fastnesses and use it to convert our neighbors. It has been conceded, from the beginning of time, that ones neighbors need their moral tone heightened. And thus could we make conversion, not merely painless, but blissful. We greatly fear, however, that peyote is not as moral as it feigns to be. We suspect that it is another demon with a serpent sting in it to lead mankind away from Paradise. It is another apple from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. If, however, it can be imbibed with perfect propriety by the godly as well as the unregenerate, by the church member as well as the sinner, Utah should become a more popular resort than ever after July 1. One drink of peyote and even the advocate of light wines and beer is apt to abandon his faith and go in for heightened moral tone.
