In confidence she will Editor The Star: I have just read an editorial over the signature of “Hypo Slim.” I wish that I could hive him the name of a doctor who cured me. I did not become an addict from choice but was taken fll one night. My husband sent for a doctor, whom he had confidence in, and he offered me a hypo. I had a horror for morphine so he said he would hot give it if I protested But he gave me some tablets, and I took them, not guess- ing that it was the same thing. I used those things eight years before I was told by an honest druggist what I was doing. Then I attempted to quit, but it was impossible. I was then a widow with two lovely children—a daughter in a Southern college, a boy in a medical school. I had te work, and was helpless without the morphine. And I feared some one would learn my secret. I tried expensive cures, whith only engulfed me more deeply than the morphine. Finally I came Across the advertisement of a Southern doctor. His price was $25. I wrote him, told him I did not have the money, told him my dilemma, and he sent the treatment. : After three months’ treatment I had no desire for That was years ago and I am really cured. But I know! that jail sentences will not cure, for I tried every way to) quit, but could not. : The morphine victim is greatly to be pitied, for he is helpless, but those who sell to the beginner are the ones) who should be punished. . I wish I wa brave enough to sign my name. Bat fear causing people to mistrust me is the cause of me not) roo moe But I would gladly give the name of this doctor who cured me if I am addressed thru The Star.

Amazing as have been the spectacular stunts of flying men, it has been apparent that the airplane cannot come into common use as long as six acres are needed for the} gliding g the ground incident to starting or alighting.

Beach’s demonstration model works. Whether or not his finished product is a success, it emphasizes that the conquest of the air is going on faster than most of us realize. | Here is a Curtiss flyer, Roland Rohlfs.
