POISON IN THE MIDDLE AGES.
Modern Light on the Causes Of Some
Mysterious Sudden Deaths.

Mysterious sudden Deatns'
In the Middle Ages SO little was
known of toxicology that all sudden
or mysterious deaths were attributed
to poison but in the light Of modern
knowledge many of these are now
easily explained by such diseases as
appendicitis or gastric ulcer.
Even the Borgias can be absolved
from many of the poisonings laid to
their charge.
Nevertheless, from very early times
in Italy poison was a favorite means
of removing an enemy. In England,
France and Germany cruder methods
of vengeance prevailed. and it was
not until the sixteenth century that
the Medici introduced poison into
France. The fashion spread with ter
rible rapidity, and poison was en-
ployed in every rank of society to get
rid of inconvenient persons.
The art introduced into France by
Catherine de Medici and her follow
ers took root so deeply as to blossom
later into the black magic of Louis
XIV.'s reign.-British Medical Jour

Modern Horse Growing.

"The only danger to the horse in
dustry is their scarcity" says Prof. W..
l.. Carlyle. "Whenever the time
comes that the price Of good horse Is
as great or nearly as great as motor
van or automobile, then the people will
buy the cheaper article. But that time
is distant if the horse breeders keep
busy. Plenty of well bred stations and
good brood mares are valuable asset
of any community. There is big mon
ey to be made in breeding draft horses
for many years to come"
At the coming stock show in Dem
yer, during the week of January 18TH,
to 23rd, there will be some excellent op.
portunities to secure choice imported
stations at fnir prices. Some Of the
very best Percherons can be purchased
at from 81 200 to $1,000. The exhibi
ton of fine horses at the Denver show
will be revelation to the horse breed

Every year the dead-letter Office in

no clue to the sender. This year the

thus to the highest bidder is s7,s44.
Allowing wide margin for those that
might have been originally addressed
correctly, but which failed to reach the

Of Office as governor of Colorado the

a preacher and the third or fourth
choice of the leaders of the party,
even the Preachers Alliance roared
at him once or twice, but, summing
the whole term up, did he not make
us pretty good governor? And
whether we refer to him as the Hon.

THE appropriations by the Gov
ernment and the contributions by
societies and private individuals in
behalf of the unfortunate people of
Southern Italy are more generous
than those inspired by any previous
catastrophe. Less than three years
ago at the time Of the San Francisco
earthquake, the people of this coun-
try contributed SO generously that
the President discouraged foreign
gifts and the relief committee of
San Francisco had considerable
surplus left on its hands and this
has been applied to the relief of the
unhappy people in the earthquake
area of Italy. The loss of life in
San Francisco was small but in
Southern Italy it has been enor-
nous as counted by the hundred
thousand. The whole world is re-
spending literally to the call of
need. 1t is at the time of one of
