POISON IN FLOWERS.
Certain Death Turks In Many Of che
Beautiful Plants.
Beautiful as flowers appear to

Beautiful as flowers appear to the
eye, there turks behind their attrac-
tivencss certain death. They may
be handled with impunity and their
odors enjoyed without any danger,
but let any one taste the juice of
some of the sweetest, and with every
drop he is taking deadly poison into
his system. Even the bulbs of such
dainty flowers as the snowdrop, mar
cissus, hyacinth and the jonquil are
poisonous.
The oxalis also is not safe thing
to put between the lips, and all the
lobelias will produce dizziness and
general disease. The monks hood
and the beautiful foxglove are nox-
ious affairs, from which powerful
drugs are obtained, more than a
few drops of their extracts being
usually fatal dose.
Certain of the croouses if eaten,
even if nothing is swallowed but the
juice, produce vomiting. The bulb
of the intricately beautiful lady's
slipper poisons externally as the
noxious ivy, dogwood and sumac.
The quaint old jack-in-t -the-pulpit,
although not garden plant, is an
other enemy to health and life, and
SO also is the marvellous Queen
Anne's lace, which now and then
will creep in through the paling
and looks so enchanting when far
and wide it embroiders field and
roadside.
The laughing little buttercup,
that might be drop of visible sun
light, is by no means as innocent as
it looks. The COW in the pasture
knows enough to avoid it. That and
all its cousins, the rich, profuse
peonies, the dazzling blue larkspurs
and the rest, are full of toxic prop
critics.
The oleander tree that is set out
doors when spring comes and that
lines the streets of various of our
southern cities is another hive of
deadly poison.
The superb catalpa tree, towering
with its great leaves and its masses
of white and fragrant flowers, is a
charming thing in the garden, but
its bark is exceedingly injurious,
and the laburnum, that looks like
fountain of gold leaping into the
sun, is poison in leaf and flower and
seed, and even the grass beneath it
is best thrown away when cut in
stead of being fed to cattle.

They would not even give me a
chance to take off my duster; so

best pictures, cabinet size, and laid
it on the parlor table. They fairly
