WARNED BY PROF. BARNES.
Difference Between Mushrooms and
ToadstooIs.


Professor C. r. Barnes of the Uni
versity of Chicago. formerly Of Madi
son, referring to recent cases OF
poisoning by toadstools, says:
IF people want to eat mushrooms
and not run any danger of being
poisoned they ought to be instructed
as to the different kinds. There is
one safe kind, called the PASTURE
which is not difficult to distinguish
The gills are usually more OR less
free from the stem. They never grow
boldly against it or run down it,
They may sometimes just touch the
spot where the stem joins the bottom
of the cap. The stem is firm, slightly
pithy up the middle, but never hollow.
On being cut or broken the flesh re-
mains white or nearly So"
Another authority says The poison
Gus mushrooms, or so-called toad
stools. may be grouped in two classes:
Cd Those containing minor or ir-
ritant poisons, which act locally on
the stomach (2) those contain
ing major poisons, which act on the
nerve centers after ABSORPTION, caus-
ing symptoms to appear long time
after the poison has been taken and
often terminating fatally.
The first kind simply make one
vomit as soon as they are eaten.
They may make one feel exceedingly
sick, but they are relatively harmless.
But the second group is composed of
the deadly poisonous amanitae, three
in number. In poisoning by the
deadly toxic amanitae vomiting and
purging may also occur as prominent
symptoms, but generally only occur
late-ten to fifteen hours after eating
the toadstool- and are due to the
action of the poison on the nerve
centers It is exceedingly I'M
fortunate that these deadly poisonous
toadstools do not give some warning
either in an unpleasant taste or con-
tain an irritant which would act
locally to cause vomiting and pu'ga-
ton, for in that case the patient
would get rid of the poison before
such large quantities we're absorbed !
and fatal poisoning would be less
frequent
It can be seen that the test
Of tasting the juices after stewing is
dangerous. If person should stew
a mess of amanitae for an hour it
would have no effect on the poison,
the mushrooms would taste all right,
and the person would feel sick till
ten or twelve hours later, when sud
denly, without warning, he would be
attacked with cramp-like pains in the
extremities, colicky pains in the
abdomen, burning thirst, vomiting
and purging, from which he would
gradually sink into Inconsistencies
and death.
There are no sweeping rules to test
fungi You simply have to know
what an amanita looks like and not
eat it. Your writer states that in
picking a new variety of mushrooms
you should choose the youngest and
smallest This, too, is apt to be
fatal, since, when the different
varieties are in the young bud state,
it is in many cases almost impossible
to distinguish the poisonous from the
edible.

Mosquito Bites.

A consular report from Paraguay
affirms that naphthalene has been
found there to be an excellent cure
for mosquito bites. 1t neutralizes the
poison, even when the spot bitten is
greatly infamed. If fresh bites are
rubbed with naphthalene no swelling
follows. Naphthalene is considered
almost a specific against mosquito
poison.

FRANCE NOT AFRAID.
Plot Against the Republic Hatched
 by the Bonapartists.
Followers of Prince Louis Napoleon Propose to Make Septemb@r 14 Memorable in the History
 of Their Country.

Blsmarck's saying that an enemy who names day for his attack is not formidable, will be recalled by the story which co.nes from London of the. new plot against the French republic. This tale is given with a good deal of c;rculas antiality, and it comes from Paris, from 6 person who is said to be fayorap ole to the scheme. Prince Louis Napoleon, a descendant of Jerome, one of the brothers of Napoleon l., is an officer of the Rus sian army. On September 14 Nicholas II. is to promote the prince to the rank of general i'll the Russian forces. On that day big demonstration is arranged in France by the friends of Bonaparte pretensions, in the inter est of the prince.
 This is the programme as outlined by the tale from Paris, published in London paper, and cabled to. the United States. Young Louis Napole- on is represented to be q good officer and popular person, and a favorite of the czar. All this is true. Possibly there is some truth in the story that he is to be promoted by the ear at an early day, and September 14 would be just as good a day as any other for the advancement to take place, so far as the world can see. But will the promotion cause Bonapartist dem- onstration? Will this demonstra- tion, if it occurs, have any influence on the political fortunes of this or any other member of the Bonapartist house? These are queries which time only can answer.
 Meanwhile, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, few considera- tions can be shown to stand in the way of the success of any Bonapart-
