IPECAC is SCARCE.
The Visible supply of one OF the SOW
ercIgn Remedies for Children
Now Limited.

Children, or most of them, will be
of ipecac. This emetic is one Of the
sovereign remedies for children. The
Rio variety is well known to the drug
trade of the United States, while the
importation of the Carthagena variety
Is prohibited by the customs authorities
of Brazil. But the increasing scarcity
of the Rio variety has directed attention
to the Garthagena, or New Granada
root, which, in appearance, does not
materially differ from the Brazilian
root, excepting that the rings which
characterize ipecac are less conspicu-
Gus.
1t is in its physiological effects that
the Carthagena ipecac is supposed to
differ from the Brazilian variety, the
former containing less "emetine" than
the latter, and owing its activity more
to the active principle "cephaline,"
which is understood to have a different
action from that of emetine. The pro-
hibition of Carthagena ipecac is no
doubt justifiable in view of the meager
information regarding the physiolog-
ical action of the drug as compared
with Rio ipecac, on which the efficacy
of ipecac as II therapeutic agent is
based. 1t is surprising that physio-
logical research to determine the action
of cephaline, the alltaloid which dis
tinguishes the Carthagena variety, has
not been undertaken earlier. In this
respect the history of the two vari-
cites of ipecacuanha is in contrast with
that of many other remedial agents
which have been the subject of phar-
theological study.
Ipecacuanha is low, creeping, per-
ennal plant, growing wild In Brazil,
having a faint, peculiar odor and n
bitter, subacrid, nauseous taste, the
root of which is largely used as an
emeticsThis root is small an / wrinkled,
being marked by regular protuberances
or rings. Since the collection of rub
Der in Brazil has assumed such pro-
portions, those who formerly occupied
themselves with gathering and prepar-
ing roots for market have abandoned
the latter occupation for the former,
which is more profitable and less labor
ious. The result has been to curtail
greatly the supply of ipecacuanha; in
fact, practically none is gathered. The
possibility Of an early scarcity of the
drug was foreseen by United States
dealers, who have almost a monopoly
of the market. Prices have been adj
vancing steadily for ten years. In 1888
the price pound was $l.25, but now 1t
is S4.25. In view of the great increase
in price the Brazilian gatherers might
for time, find the gathering of ipecaC
q more profitable employment than the
collection of rubber.-N. Y. Press.

BRADSTREET'S REPORT.
A QuletinG Down of Distributive Trade No

New York, Oct. -Bradstreet's to-

A quieting down OF distributive trade, more
particularly ut retail is reported in teegraphed
advices TO Bradstreets this week, growing out
OF the unseasonably warm weather now being
experienced In most sections OF the country.
Reflection of this Is found in less urgent orders

lections at many points As regards prices,
however, this is no appreciate loss Of strength.

vunces are stun numerous. Tnn. tlc cuisines,

simultaneously with the drop in freight rates
this week has come hardening OF quotations

Men and Dogs.

Emporia GHzette. Dogs have played
around men for so many thousand
years that dog character has acquired
all the faults and many of the virtues
of men. Generally speaking there
are two kinds Of dogs-those VINO
Generally speaking, there are two
kinds of men-th0se who succeed aud
those who fail, tail because they are
lazy. Watch a dog start for a rabbit
and you know your dog. II he starts
out brash aud lays his ears back and
makes big bluff of running till his
"lnnards" fail out, he will chase IL a
hundred yards aud the minute MIR.
Rabbit begins to gain a little, Mr..
Dog will lose interest in the game.
He will come back to the house puff
ing with a good excuse and pity-me
expression but no rabbit. He will lie
down by the side of the house and
sleep, caring nothing for the rabbit
and not discomtitted by failure. More
than that, Mr.. Dog will do that every
/ time. He never catches a rabbit in
his life, and probably don't see how
in the name of heaven other
dogs do it.
But watch Mr.. Other Dog. When
he reaches out after a rabbit, Mr..
Rabbit knows it's good-by rab bit. Mr..
d
Other Dog strikes a good fair average
gait, gauges his wind by careful
study of the gearing OF the rabbit, and
prepares for long journey. That
dog has seven devil lust for that
rabbit. It's the one thing needul TO
dog bliss-just that particular rabbit
of all rabbits in the big world full of
rabbits. The more that rabbit
stretches his legs the closer that dogs
belly comes to the ground, and the
softer are his eyes on the rear eleva-
ton Of that rabbit. Little by little
the white cotton tail of that rabbit
grows bigger in the dogs eyes as the
distance between the dog and the
rabbit shrink. Little by little that rab
bit begins To- shudder at the thought
of pot pie-which lie rabbit hell, and
yearn with 1000 yearns for a brush
pile OF hollow log.
And then one Of two things hap
pens: Either the dogs master gets a
pot pie, or the rabbit gets a log. And
If the rabbit gets log there Will be a
broken. hearted dog whining around
that log for hours after the mysterious
will have such a forsaken look The
world without that rabbit will look
as black as the inside of "a COW. And
If at last the dog has to come back to
the house rabbitless, he comes in by
the hog lot, through the stable and
sneaks under the Kitchen stoop and
doesn't wag his tail cheerfully OF
proudly for day.
Now the relation of the dog to the
rabbit, is temperamental and heredi-
tary and "a lot of other ethical things
So Is the mans relation to success m
life. The man who chases success
like the first dog never gets it, And
the man that goes after his aim in
life rs the second dog, always attainf

A TOPSY-TURVY LAND.
Does Things Contrary to
Northern Customs.

The tortoise is not an animal one
would naturally fix upon as likely to
be afraid of rain, but it is singularly so.
Twenty-four hours or more before rain
falls the Galapagos tortoise makes for
some convenient shelter. On a bright,
clear morning when not cloud is to
be seen, the denizens of a tortoise farm
on the African coast may sometimes
be seen heading for the nearest over
hanging rocks. When that happens
the proprietor knows that rain will
come down during the day, and as a
rule it comes down in torrents. The
sign never fails. This presentation, or
whatever you may call it, which exists
in many birds and beasts, may be eN-
planned partly from the increasing
weight of the atmosphere when rain is
forming, partly by habits of living and
partly from the need of moisture which
is shared by all.

nature has turned things topsy-turyy-
that is, according to our notion-we
must go to Australia. Many things are

MOTE POPULATION BY HALF.
sAVANNAH.S EsTIM ATED INCREASE
IN TEN YEARS IL PER CENT.

That Is What Is Counted on for the
Coming CensuS-Nany GueSses BE
ing Made a. to the Population Sa-
vannah viii ShOw-Larger Terri
TOR, to BE Covered Than in the
Census of 1890.
The proximity of The census of 1909, with
the appointment of supervisors and other
officials. has caused renewal of esti-
mates of the population of Savannah.
Those inclined to this form of abstract
thought have been indulging lately their
capacity for solving imaginative problems
and with the certainty of true and tried
philosophers announce their conclusions in
fixed and definite form.
The. census Of 1880 gave to Savannah
population of 43 lS9. Since that tine no
additions have been made TO the extent
of the corporate limits Of the city with
the exception Of Colinsville, but the large
Increase ia population Is evidenced by the
erection of dwellings in the southern and
eastern sections, before that time almost
guiltless of The habitations of man. Since
the last census the section south of An
derson street and extending from East
Broad 70 West Broad. has been almost
entirely built up. II is true with other
sections, and housebuiders and contract
ors have been kept busy almost all the
time. For the last two or three years
the building mania has been strongly
marked
There Is, too, the vast Increase that has
been made ia the population of the city
by the addition of numerous commercial
and shipping interests, of one kind or an
other Each new factory means opera
tives to run it, and each new dock long
shoremen 20 load the ships that receive
their carg0es from along It's eide. New
railroads and new public works have con-
tributed their quota 10 the increase Of
the population and all these combined ar
ford good ground 10 believe that il is now
between $1,000 and $500 persons.
Some such estimate as this may be de-
rived from study of the city directory
for the current year. The directory con
tains the names OF 26 23S persons exclu-
sive of the names of wives. This number
when multiplied by Two and three-nfths
which the publisher states ought to give
IAN accurate idea OF the population,
amounts to 6S,24S. Subtracung from this
number 5000. who may be taken. as resi-
dents Of the suburbs, not included in the
city limits leaves 62.24S 1t Is thought by
the population experts that this is fair
estimate of the number OF residents of
Savannah
