The Coca Leaf

The Youths Companion says Some
time ago we gave our readers a brief
sketch Of the wonderful power of coca
leaves, when chewcd like tobacco, to ar
rest the waste of the system and to keep
up its nervous tone and vigor. DR..
Smith, in his Peru as it is, says:
I. When used in moderate quantities it
increases nervous energy. enlivens the
spirits and enables the Indians to bear
cold, wet. great bodily exertion and
want of food to surprising degree with
apparent ease and impunity.
In 1850 two men buried In mine
eleven days were kept alive by the small
amount of coca they had with them.
The natives of Peru make three days
journey over the mountains with no
other support, and reach their destina-
ton without exhaustion.
The recent discovery that the most
difficult surgical operations can be per-
formed on. the eye without causing
pain. by simply dropping in it little
solution of the active principle of the
coca, has given it new interest, and we
add the following, gathered from the
New York Medical Record.
THE leaves resemble those of the tea
ptduts dMu Ia AaGt, It1C aSIAFC pA4uGApICS
1.-The alkaloids, as they are termed ARE
essentially the same. The trees grows
wild in the mountains of Peru and Boil
ivia, and is also cultivated in high lati-
tudes. In 1864 the annual product was
valued at two and onc-half millions Of
dollars The leaves are worth in Peru
seventy-five cents q pound. They have
been used by natives from remote an
tiquity. The high esteem in which they
were held is seen from the fact that they
were among the offerings to their gods,
and twas believed that the latter would
not be propitious unless the priests
chewed the leaves during the ceremonies
1t IS estimated that thirty million pounds
are now annually consumed by eight
millions of people, each using two or
three ounces day. 1t Is about twenty
five years since tho discovery Of active
principle (the alkaloid) and Of the pro-
perties Of the latter. Its present name,
cocaine pronounced cocOaine), was then
given it. It crystalizes in four to six
sided .prisms. It unitcs with ACIDS to
form various salts The salt now used to
0eadeN sensibility Is the muriate Of CO.
caine. Like all the aIkaloids, it is q
poison in large doses, the symptoms being
cerebral excitement, complete paralysis
of sensibility, tetanic (ixed) spasm, and
death. It is thought that theme (the
alkaloid Of tea may have the same anas
fhetic properties, and be substituted fol
it. Caffeinc-the aEkaIoid Of cofee-is
also radically the same.

Of late years: Indeed, the whole Pom.

adapted only to the uses of the rich.
Even. the butcher used steelyard with
handsome head of bronze to serve by
way of weight and the vintner poured his
wine into drinking-cu adorned with d
bas-relief of Bacchns. Verify, there il
nothing new under the sun. The bread
baked yesterday at Naples is precisely
the same shape as the loaves found at
Pompeii, which were put into the oven
near two thousand years ago. The
coinage OF that period differs little from
our own, except that it surpasses ours
