Tree Poisoning.

A case of alleged poisoning by the
ailantus tree has been reported to the
New Haven Conn., board of health.
The victim is a girl of twenty, and claims
to have been poisoned while lying on a
lounge near an open window and looking
at the tree, distant some four yards. The
eruptions nearly closed one eye and cov-
cred one side of her face and body. This
side was uppermost. The side she was
lying on was not affected. Regularly
every time the tree flowers she breaks
out, and sometimes the eruption takes
place when the leaves are shooting The
odor of the tree is not stronger than
usual. The patient is not feverish, and
has no increased pulsation. Her temper
is not affected and she has good appe-
tite. The irritation is only ON the sur
face, and she has no other symptom of
poisoning. Professor Brewer, in the
course OF the discussion which followed,
said that, as a rule, persons once poi
soned by plant or tree were ever after
ward especially sensitive to it. He had
seen in the newspapers cases of poison.
ing by the ailantus tree, but had never
known of case in his own experience
The tree had existed in England about
130 years, and in France 100 years. II
has existed in this country for long
time, and thirty or forty years ago was
spread by the desire for quick-growine
tree to take the place of the elm, which
was subject to ravages by worms. Ii
Brooklyn an enormous number of these
trees were set out, but afterward cut
down. The result of the discussion was
a vote directing the owner of the tree tt
remove it, and ordering Investigations t.
prepare basis of action to be takel
next year before the trees bloom.

At the Bar.

"Who speaks for this man?" From the great
white throne,
Yelled in its roseate clouds the voice came
forth
Before it stood parted soul alone,
And rolling east, and west, and south, and
north,
The mighty accents summoned quick and dead:
"Who speaks for this man, ere his doom be
said?"
Shivering he listened, for his earthly life
Had passed in dull unnoted calm away
He brought no glory to its daily strife,
No wreath of fame, or genius fiery ray;
Weak, lone, ungifted, quiet and obscure
Born in the shadow, dying mid the poor
Lo, from the solemn concourse hushed and
dim,
The widows prayer the orphans blessing
rose
The strugger told of trouble shared by him,
The lonely of cheered hours and softened
woes;
And like chorus spoke the crushed and sad
i" He gave us all he could, and what he had y
And little words of loving kindness said,
Ana tender thoughts, ana help IN time OF
need,
Sprang up like leaves by soft spring showers
fed,
In some waste corner, sown by chance flung
seed;
In grateful wonder heard the modest soul,
Such trifes gathered to SO blest a whole.
Oh ye, by circumstances strong fetters bound,
The store SO little, and the hand so frail,
Do but the best We can for all around
Let sympathy be true, nor courage fail;
Winning among your neighbors poor and weak
Some witness at your. trial hour to speak.
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1877-08-09
She Knew the Dodge.

They brought her his hat and his fish
ing rod, and with tears in their eyes told
her they'd found them lying on the end
of the pier; they must be her husbands.
She put her arms akimbo over the
washboard, she did, and looked 'em
straight in the face. "This is the third
time that John Henry's played this
thing ON me. This means he'll be home
by ten to night drunk as lord. None
OF yom sympathy here" And the com
mittee beat hasty retreat at the end o
n broomstick.
