Polsons From Meat and Fish.

Good Health says that meat owes its
harmful properties chiefly to two
things: First, the germs, or microbes
which may give rise to disease in the
flesh which is eaten; and, second, pol
sons which may naturally exist in the
flesh or which may have been produced
in it by putrefaction. The germs are
killed by cooking, but the poisonous
substances found in meat either as
the result of decay, as has frequently
been observed in canned salmon, or as
the result of ordinary tissue activity,
are not destroyed by cooking. All
flesh contains these poisonous SUBJ
stances. Uric acid is present in beef
steak in the proportion of fourteen
grains to the pound; nineteen grains
Of the poison are found in a pound OF
liver, and seventy grains in a pound
Of sweet bread. The poisonous SUBJ
stances gradually accumulate in the
body and give rise to neurasthenla,
Brights disease, calculus and numer'
GUS other maladies. The poisons pro-
duced by puuefaction are often very
RAPIDLY deadly. Meat far advanced In
decay. a condition frequently founG
in wild game and canned meats or
fish. in which the putrefactive pro-
cesses have begun, all contain poisons
which are deadly in very small doses.
and the cooking of such substances
does not to any arpreciable degree
lessen their poisonous properties. az
these, poisons are not destroyed by
heat

A MEMORY.

And never was Eve of the garden
Or Mary the maid
More pure than you as you stood there
Bold, yet afraid.
And the sleeping birds woke. trembling,
And the folded howerS were aware,
And my sense was faint with the fragrant
Gold of your hair.
And our lips found ways of speaking
What words can not say,
Till hundred nests gave music,
And the east was gray.

The hair that swept your shoulders

Your feet as they touched the grasses

Drenched with sun.

Berlin, Sept, 5,--The Turkish gov

Associated Press, has notified tho pow
ers that the porte caruot guqranto4 tho
safety Of the legations at Constantino-
Pile.
This extraordinary statement was
communicated without explanation or
without qualifying details, In response
TO an Inquiry as to whether German
marines were among those Ut the Unit
ed States which Lelshman IL reported
to have landed at Constantinople.
II Is inferred, however, that The con.
ditlons at the Turkish capital are not
so bad as the sultans notification
would imply, but that the legations
have been warned to look out for their
own safety, the porte disclalming in
advance responsibility for any dlsor-
DERBY act.
The foreign office officials added that
the German embassy at Constantinople
had not reported whether Germnn
marines had been landed, nor whether
marines OF any other power had been
landed Complete official reserve Is
maintained on this point
The Associated Press correspondent
learned from sources outside the for
eign office that the German govern
ment regards Turko- Balkan affairs as
having entered on an acute phase.
The porte's inability to take energetic
hold of the Macedonian IN surrcctiOn is
the worst feature of the situation.
