"No. They've sent for some opiates to Leukerbad, and the doctor says that is sure to put him to sleep." "Medlicott stays there?" "Yes. He says if little Armine is any way fit, he must move him away to-morrow at all risks from the night-cold up there, and he wants Reeves to see about men to carry him, that is if -if to-night does not " Cecil could not finish. "Then it is as bad as we heard?"
It sometimes seems to me as if the sky rained down opiates upon people, as if all mankind were in a conspiracy of lunacy, because they, with one accord, ignore the most prominent and forget the only certain fact about their future; and in all their calculations do not' so number their days' as to 'apply' their 'hearts unto wisdom. 'Go thou thy way until the end, and let thy way be marked out with a constant eye towards the end.
The drug is the same; the man varies, and with his variations arise peculiarities in the effects of remedies. The excess sometimes attained in the use of opiates is almost past belief.
Having settled ourselves into this infidelity, our skill is expended to procure alleviations, diversion, opiates. We adorn the victim with manual skill, his tongue with languages, his body with inoffensive and comely manners. So have we cunningly hid the tragedy of limitation and inner death we cannot avert.
In consideration of this sum it will swallow huge quantities of alcohol, an appalling amount of opiates and narcotics, a wide assortment of varied drugs ranging from powerful and dangerous heart depressants to insidious liver stimulants; and, far in excess of all other ingredients, undiluted fraud.

'Opiates! she was always trying to keep my father from them! It was too much for her! My uncle says I must try to do it, and I can't. 'Poor child! said Mr. Dutton kindly, though cut to the heart at the revelation of sweet Alice's trial; 'at least you can strive, and there is always a blessing on resolution. 'Oh, if you knew! and he doesn't like me.
If he had died the man she had just left behind in that torpid sleep which opiates bring his body would have been carried to his last home in just such a hideous equipage as this hearse.
Many deaths occur from the use of these opiates, which at first seem indeed to bring relief, but really only smother the prominent symptoms, while the disease goes on unchecked, and at last proves fatal. These patent medicines may appear to help one person and be fraught with danger to the next, so widely different are the effects of opiates upon different ages and temperaments.
There were few evils which his modes of thinking would not disarm of their sting; but here, all opiates to grief, and all compellers of patience were vain. This spectacle would be unavoidably followed by the outrages of desperation, and a rushing to death. For the present, I neglected to ask myself what motive brought him hither.
The exhilarating and stimulating influence of alcohol and narcotics such as opiates or hashish upon the animal spirits and the emotional and imaginative faculties is caused by the benumbing and paralyzing effect of these stimulants upon the powers of will, reason and self-control, the brakes on the lower appetites, passions and desires which fire the emotional nature and the imagination.
