ANCIENT DISEASE.
0mallpOx First Described by Ara bs
In Sixth Century.

The literary as well as the pathologic
history of smallpox presents many
items of very special interest. All read
ers of the clouded annals of the Mid
die Ages are acquainted with the fact
that Arabia writers were for many
centuries the recognized apostles of phi
losophy and physical science-including
h sundry departments of medicine
and su~rgery-tO the various nations of
western Europe. And it is to one of
these. Abu Becker Mohammed ben
Zechariah CA. -. SJO-932). the earliest
and most original of all the great Mos
lem physicians, hat medical science
and medical literature are indebted for
the first recognition of smallpox as Il
distinct disease and its first description
in written language. This venerable au-
thority is generally known to posterity
as RhaZes, Il name which he derived
from Raj. the place of his birth. His
original description of this formidable
disease has been made familiar to Eng
lish inquirers through the medium Of
DR.. G~reenhilIS translation. In addition
to his observations on disease proper
the powers of observation Of Rhazes in
physiognomy are demonstrated by such
items of information as. "A man with
large ears is stupid, but long lived"
and in rational therapeutics by his rec
Ommendation Of the practice of the
game of chess as a cure for mclan-
cholia. The antiquity Of smallpox is.
as might well be expected. lost in the
midst of ages. but the definite state
ment has beer made by Arab historians
that it first appeared in the Abyssinian
army OF .Abraha at the siege of Mecca
in the course of the SO called Elephant
war" of A. ID. $50 Tor 57D. The legend
is given as follows by one of their best
historians. Tabari: 'Tllereupon came
the birds of the sea in fiocks. every one
with three stones, in the claws two and
in the beak ne; and they threw the
stones upon them. Wherever one of
these stones struck there arose IN evil
wound. and plIstules all over. At that
time the smallpox first appeared and
the bitter trees. Tie stones undid them
wholly. Thereafter God sent IA torrent
which carried them away and swept
them into the sea- Even one of the
elephants, having yentured within the
sacred Enclosures. was struck by a stone
and fell Il victim to the smallpox.
Among the bitter plants which also APP
peared at that date for the first time.
the rue and %colcynth are especially
mentloned.-American Medicine.

Jewels. amounts probably to far
greater sum than at first reported.
Mrs. LoriHard lost all her jewelry ex-

of credit and other valuables. The rob
berry took place at the Berkeley hotel,
to which place two men followed Mr..
