Among peasants of southern Italy,
Sicily and Sardinia curious malady
has been noticed by physicians, which
is caused by eating beans. One of the
most remarkable effects of the malady
is species of intoxication resembling
that produced by alcoholic drink. In
some cases persons predisposed to the
malady are seized with the symptoms
of intoxication if they pass a field
where the bean plant is in flower, the
odor alone sufficing to affect them.

half an hour bridge is formed on
which an army may cross Ia confidence
and safety.
