Shanghai Gal
Shanghai Gal and her opium pipe

"It banishes melancholy, begets confidence, converts fear into boldness, makes the coward eloquent, and dastards brave. Nobody, in desperate circumstances, and smiling under a disrelish for life, ever laid violent hands on himself after taking a dose of opium, or ever will."
John Brown
(1735 - 1788)
Elementis Medicinae [1780]
