10 QUE RS Ell ANONIM0.

FL anonlmo despues de scr euemigo
acerrimo de la doncela, de Ia muier
honesta y del hombre honrado, es la
venganza dc los cobardes, el insulto de
los felones y el eco dc los canallas.
La escritura del an6nimo parece que
tiembla, como tiembla el puhal en- la
mano del asesino. FL anonimo es
la mascara del malvado, por ESQ apes
ia, porque lleva el tufo del que respi-
ra tTas ella. FL salteador de caminos
tiene algo de dignidad; la dignidad
de su valor que le hace arriesgar la
vida; tienen algo de tragico sus crime
mes; ataca con ventaja; pero sin arma-
dura que le defenda, y puede caer d
los golpes de un agredido y valiente
serene; su arma favorita es el puhal,
porque casl todas sus luchas son de
cerca, cuerpo a cuerpo. El anonmo,
asesino y ladr6n, el mas ruin cobar-
de de todos los ladrones y aseslnos,
ataca de l6jos, desde donde no puede
ser conocido nj tocado; roba con gan.
z1a cuando todos duermen; insulta
zen la sombra para que no lie vean el
rostro; el an6nimo es el dnico crimi-
nal que puede, en- toGos casos, celebrar
su odioso triunio, antes De cometer la
wi aocion. I'm el anonimo hay mu-
cho dc todas las bajezas; mucho de
ruindad, mucho dc cobardia, mueho
de traicion, muoho de alevosia, mu-
cho de falsedad, mucho de todo 10
denigrante, de todo 10 que infama, dc
todo 10 que sehala los mlserables.
FL anonimo no alcanza a HERR las
honras; pero para el es facil aeabar
con la tranquilidad de una familia,
tocando los corazones sensibles y timi-
dos.

IT really seems to be the exception
nowadays to take up daily paper
without finding the account of suicide
ne q man or woman by means of car
bolic acid. The latest case is that OF
q man who poisoned himself at MS
wife's grave, and it appears in evidence
that he had pawned his coat to buy
the earbolic acid with which he erect
ed his purpose. Now, carbolic acid is
y.irulent poison; few drops will Kill

tion nv any one who desires to obtain
If for legitimate or illegitimate pur-
noses Even a child may purchase at
a shop without any difficulty for few
cents as much of this virulent poison
as will kill half dozen persons. Sure
w the time has arrived when some
thing should be done to restrict the
sale Of this acid, the more particularly
when it is considered that by far the
largest number of deaths by poisoning
is caused by its agency, and it seems
m he the favorite means of self-de-
struction by women. 1t is nothing less
than a scandal that this article should
not be included among the scheduled
nelson's. If the legislature has decreed
the prussic acid, by which painless
death is produced, shall not be avail
able to the public except under med
ical supervision, then why in the name
of reason should carbolic acid, which
causes the most frightful suffering, be
within the reach of all? An alteration
