POISONOUS ExHALAT1oNs OF TREES

POISONOUS CIVILIZATIONS OF TREES
II. Karstens, in a communication to a
German journal, son the influence Of
the so called Poisonous Shadows" states
that during long residence in tropical
America, he became well acquainted
with the euphor5iaceous tree, Hippo
name Manzanilla L., and with the fact
that the natives consider it so poisonous
as to avoid going near it, asserting that
merely resting nnder its deep shade will
produce serious sickness, and in very sus-
cephble persons even death. The pois,
oDous influences of this tree having
been denied by various naturalists, es.
pecially Joaquin, the author gathered
some of the Juice on the sea coast Of
Nenezuela, near Laguayra. In Il short
time he was seized with sensation of
heat and swelling all over his body, es-
pecially about tb face. The next morn
ing he was unab e to open his eyes, and
their irritation was so great as to force
him to pass several days of great pain in
dark room. On the third day the
swelling began to diminish and the cuti-
Gle to scale of The hippomane has
then a juice which, i'll dry atmosphere,
evaporates from the moist bark and acts
as an irritant poison to the skin and
mucous membrane. II is stated by JAG
quin that he remained many hours in
close proximity to tho tree without in
jury. but it was during storm, and
doubtless the wind and water carried off
the noxions vapor. Karste IS believes
that the poisonous principle emanating
from this species OF spurge is nitrogen
Gus, and, probably, is substitution
product OF ammonia, analogous to
trimethylamine.
