influences Of various substances that
might be used rs worm medicines. The
results proved that worms often lived
longer in. those substances known as
poisonous than in some Of tho most
harmless articles OF food. For instance,
in watery solution of opium they lived
eleven minutes; in infusion OF pink
root, thirty,three minutes but in the
juice OF rod cherries they died III six
minutes; black cherries, in FIVE min,
utes red curnuts, in three minutes
gooseberries, in four minutes F.; whortle
berries, in seven minutes, and rasp
berries, in five minutes. From thCst
experiments DR.. Rush argued that fresh
ripe fruit, Of which children arc very
fond, are tho most speedy and eiIectun
poisons for worms. In practice this
theory has proved to be correct.
