HOW TO KNOW POISON IVY.
Hints on Detecting the Plant and
Curing Its Poisonous Effects.

Curing It's Poisonous Effects.
Poison ivy grows wild throughout thu
whole land. Its leaves are In threes
smooth and shining Oh both surfaces
with margins which may be toothed Of
even. There are flowers in May ant
June and fruit In the autumn-a
smooth, white, wax-llke berry, says the
Boston Traveller.
The poison is a nonvolatile oil found
In all parts Of the plant When Il
touches the skin of susceptible per
son 1t produces an eruption of an cry
sipelas-like nature. In severe cases the
point affected frequently becomes irri
tated year after year.
A person is particularly susceptible
10 the poison in warm weather, wheI
the blood is heated and the skin pores
are open. 1t is, however, dangerous al
all seasons, and some of the worst
cases of poisoning have occurred In the
winter, when woodchoppers have beer
perspiring freely and have worked
amid the Ivy vines.
To relieve the Inflammation and dry
up the pustules powdered sugar Of lead
dissolved In alcohol Is highly recon
mended. Tlncture of grindelia diluted
with three times its bulk of water and
applied two or three times an hour will
check the spread Of the eruption. A
solution Of one part Of hyposulphite OF
soda to three Of water applied con.
stantly to the affected place Is a good
remedy.
A doctor who has been poisoned
about eighty times says the poisonous
hol and which is precipitated by lead
subacetate; hence the use of lead salts
in Inflammation Of the skin resulting
from the action Of the poison ivy oil is
rational, but the precipitated lead COM
pound must be removed from the skin,
as 1t is gradually decomposed and the
oil set free again to continue Its irri-
tant action.
The use of soap and water and a
good hand brush is the simplest way
Of getting rid of the OIL The action Is
mechanical and perfectly efficient. Al
cohol in full strength dissolves and re-
moves the oil, but does not neutralize
II. Care should be taken lest the al
cohol with oil in solution flows over a
part as yet unaffected, as 1t may cause
further eruption. The use Of ointments
and fatty substances Is wrong, as they
serve to spread the irritant oil Of the
poison. Clothing that may have been
In contact with the plants will retain
and transmit the Irritating quality. A
doctor says he has been poisoned by q
pair of shoes worn while collecting Ivy
plants the previous year.
The Ivy plant is usually climbing
or trailing shrub, but sometimes as.
sumes an erect habit Of growth. On
the seashore along the Atlantic coast II
sometimes covers hundreds Of acres on
Islands and spreads over large areas.
The trunk is buried out Of sight below
the surface, and the branches rise erect
out of the sand like separate plants. In
such forms Of Ivy growth the poisonous
properties do not seem to be SO power
ful and active.
1t Is not generally known that II
boiling water Is poured ON the plant
the vapors are often poisonous, and
that the smoke from a bonfire Of Ivy
brush Is as dangerous to inhale as the
breeze which blows Off the vines IN

WERE IN MEXICO.
Married Only a Short Tine, Cannot
Now BE Heard From.


Litchfeld, H., March 16 r.. j.
Wilson. Of Hillsboro, is trying to
locate his sou and the latter's
wife, Mr.. and Mrs. Parker Wilson,
who left this county last December
for trip thru Missouri and Kan
sas. The couple had been mar!
ried short time before their de-
partUre and were on their wedding
tour.
They went to st. Louis, where
they spent several days going from
there to Mexico, Mo. Letters
were received by relatives at Hills
boro from both cities and the last
letter was written December 16.
Since that date nothing has been
heard from them, tho they were
expected to return to this city to
reside.
The last letter was written by
the bride and stated that they were
at the Gem Hotel, in Mexico. In
vestigation revealed that there's no
such hotel in that city.
She stated in the letter that they
had made no plans for the future
and since that time they have dis
appeared and every effort to locate
them has proved futile.
Their friends and relatives in
this county have become alarmed
and fear they have been the vic
Tins of foul play. Mr.. Wilson,
the father of the groom, states
that he fears that they were de.
coyed to some place and robbed
and murdered. Young Wilson
was known to have had 5000 when
they started on their trip.
They have failed to reach any
of their relatives in either Missouri
or Kansas whom they intended to
visit. The couple took but very
little baggage, as they were not in
tending to be absent from home
very long.
Parker Wilson, the missing
young man, is "a years of age, 3
feet tall, dark hair and gray eyes,
weighs $50 pounds. His wife is q
daughter Of Mrs. Nancy Ault, is
10 years old and has dark hair and
black eyes.
