considerable number OF the inhrbl-

The doctors sought for the cause OF this
curious epidemic, and attributed 1t to
bread. The bakers, by way of showing
their good faith, supplied samples Of the
bread the patients had eaten.

1t was found TO be heavily aciulterated
with tale, a mineral which is generally
found in rough brittle crystals which
can be sliced with n knife. Other, samples
contained large quantities Of marble dust
and sulphate of baryta.
