​Sicil′ian Dishes (Sicŭlæ dapēs) were choice foods. The best Roman cooks were Sicilians. Horace (3 Odes, i. 18) tells us that when a sword hangs over our head, as in the case of Damoclēs, not even "Siculæ dapēs dulcem elaborabunt saporem."

​Sick Man (The). So Nicholas of Russia (in 1844) called the Ottoman Empire, which had been declining ever since 1586.
"I repeat to you that the sick man is dying; and we must never allow such an event to take us by surprise."—Annual Register, 1853.
N.B. Don John, Governor-General of the Netherlands, writing in 1579 to Philip II. of Spain, calls the Prince of Orange "the sick man," because he was in the way, and he wanted him "finished."
"'Money' (he says in his letter) 'is the gruel with which we must cure this sick man [for spies and assassins are expensive drugs]'."—Motley: Dutch Republic, bk. v. 2.

# Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable/Sick as a Horse

​Sick as a Horse. Nausea unrelieved by vomiting. A horse is unable to vomit, because its diaphragm is not a complete partition in the abdomen, perforated only by the gullet, and against which the stomach can be compressed by the abdominal muscles, as is the case in man. Hence the nausea of a horse is more lasting and more violent. (See Notes and Queries, C.S. xii., August 15th. 1885, p. 134.)

# British Medical Journal/1926/Samuel Fleming, M.B., C.M.

Obituary for Samuel Fleming, published in the British Medical Journal (Br Med J 1926;1:38).
Samuel Fleming, M.B., C.M.,
Metropolitan Police Magistrate.
Mr. Samuel Fleming, metropolitan police magistrate of Lambeth, died on December 20th, 1925, on board the steamer Armadale Castle, on his way to the Cape. He was born on May 24th, 1865, the son of Mr. Frederick Grant Fleming, and was educated at University College, London, and Edinburgh University, where he graduated M.B., C.M. in 1890; he took the D.P.H. at Cambridge in 1893. Leaving the medical profession for the law, he was called to the Bar by Gray's Inn and the Middle Temple in 1897, and joined the North-Eastern Circuit, practising at the Durham, Leeds, Sheffield, Bradford, and Rotherham sessions. During the war he was legal adviser and judge advocate of the Aldershot Command, afterwards legal adviser to the Army Medical Department, and received a brevet lieutenant-colonelcy in the R.A.M.C. in 1918, having become major in 1916. In 1920 he was appointed Recorder of Doncaster, but resigned that post in the following year, when he was appointed a metropolitan police magistrate. He sat at first at Greenwich and Woolwich, and was transferred to Lambeth in 1924. He had been elected a member of the Bar Council in 1920. In 1892 he married Elizabeth, daughter of the late Colonel W. C. Ball, C.B., and at the time of his death was on his way, with his wife, to visit one of his daughters, who is married to Major Piet Vanderbyl.
Mr. Fleming was, we believe, the first and only medical man who has filled the post of metropolitan police magistrate. In this connexion we may remark that the present generation has seen the creation of the first medical peers, Lord Lister (1897), Lord Ilkeston (1910), Lord Finlay (1916), and Lord Dawson of Penn (1920); the first medical Lord Chancellor, Viscount Finlay (1916-18); the first medical ambassador, Sir Auckland Geddes (1920-24); the first medical Lord Mayor of London, Sir Thomas Crosby (1911); and the first medical Poet Laureate, Dr. Robert Bridges (1913).

# The Hill-Top

The burly driver at my side, We slowly climbed the hill, Whose summit, in the hot noontide, Seemed rising, rising still. At last, our short noon-shadows bid The top-stone, bare and brown, From whence, like Gizeh's pyramid, The rough mass slanted down.
I felt the cool breath of the North; Between me and the sun, O'er deep, still lake, and ridgy earth, I saw the cloud-shades run. Before me, stretched for glistening miles, Lay mountain-girdled Squam; Like green-winged birds, the leafy isles Upon its bosom swam.
And, glimmering through the sun-haze warm, Far as the eye could roam, Dark billows of an earthquake storm Beflecked with clouds like foam, Their vales in misty shadow deep, Their rugged peaks in shine, I saw the mountain ranges sweep The horizon's northern line.
There towered Chocorua's peak; and west, Moosehillock's woods were seem, With many a nameless slide-scarred crest And pine-dark gorge between. Beyond them, like a sun-rimmed cloud, The great Notch mountains shone, Watched over by the solemn-browed And awful face of stone!
"A good look-off!" the driver spake; "About this time, last year, I drove a party to the Lake, And stopped, at evening, here. 'T was duskish down below; but all These hills stood in the sun, Till, dipped behind yon purple wall, He left them, one by one.
"A lady, who, from Thornton hill, Had held her place outside, And, as a pleasant woman will, Had cheered the long, dull ride, Besought me, with so sweet a smile, That--though I hate delays-- I could not choose but rest awhile,-- (These women have such ways!)
"On yonder mossy ledge she sat, Her sketch upon her knees, A stray brown lock beneath her hat Unrolling in the breeze; Her sweet face, in the sunset light Upraised and glorified,-- I never saw a prettier sight In all my mountain ride.
"As good as fair; it seemed her joy To comfort and to give; My poor, sick wife, and cripple boy, Will bless her while they live!" The tremor in the driver's tone His manhood did not shame "I dare say, sir, you may have known"-- He named a well-known name.
Then sank the pyramidal mounds, The blue lake fled away; For mountain-scope a parlor's bounds, A lighted hearth for day! From lonely years and weary miles The shadows fell apart; Kind voices cheered, sweet human smiles Shone warm into my heart.
We journeyed on; but earth and sky Had power to charm no more; Still dreamed my inward-turning eye The dream of memory o'er. Ah! human kindness, human love,-- To few who seek denied; Too late we learn to prize above The whole round world beside!

DIESEL, dē'zĕl, Rudolf, German inventor: b. Paris 1858; d. 1913. He was educated in England and at the Polytechnic School, Munich. He became manager of a refrigerating plant in Paris, where he remained for some years, returning to Munich in 1895. For many years he conducted experiments in internal-combustion engines and about 1893 news of his discoveries in this field caused considerable comment. After several failures in trying to make direct use of the energy from fuel combustion, in 1897 he brought out the engine since known by his name as the Diesel engine. He subsequently brought it to a high state of perfection. He came to America in 1912 and there delivered a series of lectures and in the year following the British Admiralty summoned him to a consultation. He lost his life by drowning in the Channel while on his way to England. He published ‘Theory and Construction of a Rational Heat Motor’ (Eng. trans. by Donkin 1894) and ‘Die Entstehung des Dieselmotors’ (1913).

DIELECTRIC, a name applied by Faraday to any medium through or across which electrostatic induction can take place. (See Induction, Electrostatic). Solids, liquids and gases possess this property of transmission, though in differing degrees, and their dielectric value, or specific inductive capacity, is measured by the ratio of the capacity of a condenser in which each may form the insulator, to the capacity of the same condenser with a vacuum as insulator.
