SHAKESPEARE’S POISONS.
They Are Taken Too Seriously by
Some Modern Chemists.
It is one of the penalties of Shake¬
speare’s position as a great poet that
bis words are taken seriously.
A learned doctor in a foreign sc-ien
rifle review Was been molding an inqui
sition into tlie poisons mentioned by
him. He points out that (lie “juice of
cursed liebenon,” which Claudius is
said to have poured into the ear of
Hamlet’s father, is incapable of pierc¬
ing the tympanum of the ear and
therefore could not have penetrated
the body and poisoned the blood, as
(he ghost alleges. Again, the narcotic
which Friar Laurence administers to
Juliet was probably either Datura
stramonium or mandragora root. The
first is used by the convicts in New
Caledonia when they wish to rob their
companions, but i/ ui a, its effects civ, do .mt not xctot last
forty-two hours nor anythin** like that
time. A scientist who experimented on
himself with mandragora found that
intense sickness is caused on waking,
and this did not happen to Juliet. As
for the poison which was given to Ro¬
meo, it was probably aconite or one of
those mixed poisons composed of vege
table alkaloids and ptomaine, since it
was so remarkably rapid in ila effects.
But that is tlie fault of too serious
people. They will take everything se
riously. Shakespeare probably knew
nothing at all of poisons or of nnr
codes. He was a poet and not a chorn
1st and might therefore l>e allowed the
usual poetic license.—London Globe.
TWIN EARTHQUAKES.
Two Distinct Series of Shocks Are Fel:
Almost Simultaneously.
Among the most interesting earth
tremors from a scientific point of view
are those known as “twin earth¬
quakes,” where two distinct series of
shocks are felt, separated by an inter
val of two or three seconds. In each
series tlie vibrations increase to a
maximum and die away. I ho whole
duration, including the quiet interval,
being eight to twelve seconds, in some
parts of the earthquake zone the most
powerful shocks arc nearly always of
lids kind. When they occur, how
ever, there is always u strip of coun¬
try where only one shock is felt.
Apparently there are two distinct
points of origin for these shocks, and
the strip where a single shock is felt is
that where tlie two sets of vibrations
arrive simultaneously. The fact that
this hand is straight shows that the
twin shocks occur together and that
therefore one is not a consequence
the other. Probably there is an S
shaped bend in some interior layer oi
rock and tlie twin foci are
of greatest displacement—namely, the
bends of the S. The movement that
causes such a twin earthquake there
fore results in accentuating the form
of tlie fold in the earth’s crust.—New
Turk Herald.
The Fighting Maoris.
Some 300 Maoris were shut up in in
trenebments at a place called Oralcaw.
Without food except a few raw pota¬
toes, without water, pounded at by ar¬
tillery and under a hail of rifle bullets
and band grenades, unsuccessfully as¬
saulted no less than five times, they
held out for three days, completely
surrounded. General Cameron hu¬
manely sent a flag of truce, inviting
them to surrender honorably. To this
they made tlie ever famous reply:
“Enough! We tight right on forever!”
Then the general offered to let the wo
men come out, and the answer was,
“The women will tight as we.” At
leugth on the afternoon of the third
day the garrison in a body charged at
quick march right through the English
lines, fairly jumping over the heads of
the men of the Fortieth regiment as
they lay behind a bank. Half of them
fell; the remainder got clear away.
The earthworks and the victory re¬
mained with us, but the glory was
theirs.”—“The Long White Cloud,” by
W. P. Reeves.
Forgot Himself.
Absentminded persons are r,ot infre¬
quently met among the medical pro¬
fession, who of all men should al¬
ways have their wits about them. It
is related that a well known doctor
was once present in a public place
when au accident occurred and, see- ;
ing a wounded man, went about call¬
ing: “A doctor! A doctor! Somebody
go and fetch a doctor!”
A friend who was by bis side ven
tured to Squire, “Well, what about
yourself?”
“Oh, dear.” answered the doctor,
suddenly recalling the fact that he be¬
longed to the medical profession, "I
didn’t think of that!”
Mount Etna, the largest volcano iu
Europe and one of the largest in the
world, is 10,500 feet high and 90 miles
lu circumference at Its base.
“When there is company here,” said
Mrs. Hewligus after the fashionable
feminine caller had gone, “I wish you
wouldn’t make such pointed remarks
about women’s hats.”
"Pointed remarks!’’ exclaimed Mr.
Hewligus. “Why, I never talked more
bluntly In my life!"—Chicago Tribune.

ECZEIf LODGES IN THE SKIN
,
Not J Disease—Cured by Oil ot
•rgreen Compound
| Foe • r
vearseczema was sup
postd to •u mSSfiWulsease and was
erroneous! treated as such, but now
the best 3 thorities agree that eczema
is only skin disease and must be
cured through the skin. The eminent
skin specialist Dr. D. D. Dennis, first
discovered the eczema germ and his
discovery was quickly taken up in
Germany and France.
To kill the eczema germ and at the
same time heal the skin, Dr. Dennis
compounded oil of wintergreen, thymol,
glycerine, etc. The remedy is a liquid,
not a mere salve, hence it sinks right
into the pores of the skin. Washing
with this oil of wintergreen compound
•eems to take away the itch at once;
soon the scales drop away and the dis¬
ease disappears. The prescription has
now been used so long as to have prov¬
en its absolute merit and we do not
hesitate to express our confidence in
D. D. D. Prescription as used with
D. D. D. Soap.
