DRUG DREAMS
Queer Visions Conjured Up In ths
Brains of Daring Experimenters
An experimenter with the Mexican
drug nicscnl is rewarded by many
and varied visions Defore him tilt
myriads of dainty butterfly forms glis
tening Iridescent fibrous wings of
insects revolving vessels on whose
highly polished concave surface of
mother-of-pearl many strange and vivid
hues play There are elaborate sweet
meats in endless and appetizing va
riety and living arabesques of gorgeous
hues and superhuman design
lie may take up a pen for the pur
pose of making notes but will find
himself unable to use It A pencil
however proves easy of manipulation
as ue writes uis paper is covered
with a soft golden light and his hands
seen Indirectly appear bronzed scaled
fantastically pigmented and flushed
with red
Tiring of the visions he may light
the gas which immediately fills the
room with a glorious radiance while
wonderfully colored shadows of red
green and violet flit here and there
Generally It Is said no feeling of de
pression or physical discomfort fol
lows the dream
A medical experimenter In Kentucky
soon after taking a large dose of hash
eesh began to feel very excited a feel
ing of inner joyousness possessed him
all fatigue seemed banished forever
and his mind ran riot one bizarre idea
after another rapidly passing through
his mind Later his brain appeared
to split in two parts one of which
urged him to the performance of comic
restures while the other as insistent
ly hinted at impending death and sug
gested restraint and instant medical
advice
While waiting for a doctor he experi
enced alternate spells of lucidity and
periods when all connections between
himself and the outside world seemed
to be severed when a chaos of disjoint
ed ideas and wild reveries obsessed
him The duration of these latter
periods was never longer than two
minutes but each seemed an eternity
It appeared a hopeless task to follow
the minute hand of his watch during
its infinite round long before the sixty
seconds had elapsed he gave up the
stupendous task in deep despair The
departure of the doctor synchronized
with the return of the feeling of im
pending death now most horribly in
tense
He imagined himself surrounded by
grotesque menacing cruel visaged
monsters He felt himself expanding
dilating dissolving into space as he
ascended steep precipices covered
with Brobdignagian creatures some
what like lizards overhanging enor
mous abysses the while he was over
whelmed by a horrible rending un
utterable despair Detroit News-Tribune
MAKING GOLD LEAF
The Metal Is Beaten For Hours
by
Men Then Finished by Girls
In one of the downtown business
streets may be seen sticking from one
of the upper windows a massive arm
and band the hand grasping a huge
hammer and the whole sign gilded It
is the sign of the gold beaters estab
lishment where thousands of the gold
sheets are turned out after having
been packed by girls
Gold leaf is packed more by the aid
of the breath than by the hands The
operation of transferring a sheet of
almost transparent gold leaf from one
place to another is so delicate that it
is possible to do it only by a light
puff of the breath It takes most girls
six weeks to acquire this knack and
some girls are never able to acquire it
The gold reaches the beaters first
in wide bars or nuggets and has to be
weighed melted and made into inch
wide ribbons before anything else is
done The ribbon is then cut into inch
squares and beaten with a hammer
wielded by a man When each leaf
has been beaten thin it Is transferred
to a mold where it is beaten four
hours more The beating is done with
a wooden hammer weighing from
seven to eighteen pounds on a sheep
skin cushion which rests on a granite
block The gold used for beating is
usually 22 or 23 carats fine A little
alloy of copper or silver is added to
make it spread It would be impos
sible the beaters say to handle per
fectly pure gold
After the gold has been beaten it
is handed over to the girls who lift
the unshaped leaf from the mold with
a pair of wooden pinchers flatten it out
on a sheepskin cushion by gently blow
ing on it cut it to a perfect square
replace it between the leaves of the
book and flatten it out with the breath
There are twenty five leaves in a
book and a skilled girl can pack sev
enty books in a day for which she
gets from 2t2 to 3 cents a book New
