Looking Back to 1916: Dope Fiends Even Back Then?

From the April 27, 2016, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois) "Looking Back."

1916, 100 Years Ago.

"The Kirkland White House Drug Store was broken into.  The thief took $5 change, 345 grams of morphine, 116 heroin tablets and eight veterinary cocaine tablets.

"The taking of the above drugs, and the fact that nothing else in the store aside from the cash was molested would indicate that the thief was a dope fiend."
