More Successful Experiments With
the Morphine Antidote.

More Successful Experiments With
the Morphine Antidote.
| New York Times.
Further experiments to eStab-
lish the efficacy Of permanganate
| of potassium as an antidote to NOR
phine poisoning were made today
| at the Homeopathic college. The
tests were conducted by Drs. Mel
son and Meyer. 1t was clearly dem
Onstrated that permanganate of
| potassium not only c~ounteracts
but renders perfectly harmless the
| evil effects of the drug, and that
morphine poison can be arrested at
any stage short of actual death.
The subjects operated on were
strong healthy dogs. The first, an
| intelligent little animal of the
collie strain was of a highly ner-
| vous organization. Four grains of
| morphine were injected into his
system through a hypodermic sy-
ringe. The poison acted quickly.
| In ten minutes he was stretched
out on the floor apparently dead.
A lighted candle, placed so close
to his wide open, staring eyes as to
SINCE the lashes, did not effect him
in the least; he did not even move
his eyelid. He was utterly oblivi-
GUS to numerous pinprick, and
when picked up and dropped fell
in a lifeless heap. In half
an hour the animals res
piratiOn was slow and labored;
the p~ulsations Of his heart were
about one-third slower than they
were when tho poison was admin
istered. Death evidently was a
short time off.
The two physicians preCipitated
four grains of permanganate of
potassium in water and injected
it, as they had previously done
with the morphine. The antidote
acted more quickly than the poi
son. Inside of five minutes the dog
raised it's head with a nervous,
jerky motion and made ineffect-
ual attempts to get on its feet. In
ID minutes it was running around
the room in a highly excited
state, in startling contrast to its
l~ifeless condition of a few minutes
previous. The deadly effects of the
poison had been etfectually coun-
%teracted, and aside from an unnat-
Ural excitement of the nervous sys-
TEN, which passed off subsequently
in a deep sleep, the animal was as
sound and healthy as when taken
into the room.
DR.. Meyer stated that the amount
OF morphine given the dog was suf-
ticlent to have killed it, and would
unquestionably have done so had
not the permanganate of potassium
acted as an antidOte. Experiments
Of similar character showed the
same effect. 1t Is claimed that the
antidOte may be given with bene-
fetal results in cases Of morphine
poisoning, so long as the patient
retains a spark of life.
The permanganate of potassium,
when precipitated in water, is of a
bright'red color, greatly resem-
bling blood. Its scientific effect
when taken to counterfeit NOR
phine is to produce an insoluble
nonpOisOnOus compound.

WOMAN DRUMMERS.
Many Branches of Trade Repre-
sented by Clear-Headed
Saleswomen.

New York Sun.
"The woman drummer has come
to stay, and we men won't be 'in it,
in a short time ?"
The above is from the lament of
a certain travelling salesman, who
confided some facts about his bust
ness to a reporter the other day.
He is mOurnful, it is true, as who
would not be who saw his vocation
slipping away from him. But he
seems to feel that open confession
is good for the soul, and according
ly describes with eXactness, har-
rowing to the souls of other COM
mercial travellers, the full extent
of the success of his feminine rivals
in trade.
"There is a young woman by the
name of Lincoln" he says with
logged resignation. "She sells i'm
imported hats. So do I-when |
get a chance. But if | expected to
do anyt ling on my route | am
obliged to keep ahead Of her, for
when she strikes a town and car
ries away every order in it. | must
confess that these women knights

calls us, do much better than the

dies. Some Of them do exactly as
men do, visit a merchant in person
and solicit his orders. Others en-
gage a sample room in the hotel,
and, after notifying the merchants,
wait and receive them there. There
is another class Of feminine trav-
elers, who are very swell and cater
to individual custom. / know of
several from New York who pur.

"PrObably the best known wo-
