GREAT EFFECT OF ARSENIC

Digestion.

You no doubt have observed the
lily white complexion Of some wom-
en-. These women are sacrificing
years Of their lives for that beautiful
skin by the use Of arsenic" said D. v.
Duvan, chemist of Manchester, Eng
land, at the Shoreham.
1T is a well-known fact that thou
sands of women in all countries of the
world use the poison in small quaint.
ties to bleach their skin. 1t is an ef
fective means Of whitening and clear
ing the complexion, but the complex
ion given by its use has no perma-
nency unless the absorption of the
drug be continued.
Arsenic, as science has long told
US, is an accumulative poison. When
one takes 1t either by prescription for
the upbuildlng Of an appetite or for
the bleaching Of the skin, he does not
feel any Ill effects for several years.
The effect Of the drug is bracing, and
makes a person feel like eating. It
also aids the digestion. The average
user Of the poison takes It in such
small quantities that he does not real
ize how much Of 1t will accumulate in
his system in the course of four or
five years.
Being an accumulative poison, it
often takes that length of time to see
the results of the drug Then the
user may complain of not being able
to control his fingers or toes Subse-
quently, he loses control Of his hands
and arms. Arsenical poisoning is the
result.
Five years ago in Manchester
there was an epidemic Of paralysis
Several thousands of persons were
stricken. Several hundred died, and
the medical profession of England
made a thorough investigation Of the
malady and traced 1t to beer. The
investigators discovered that the
brewers were using a glucose in the
brewing Of their product, which was
found to contain a small quantity of
arsenic. This drug, imbibed in small
quantities in beer, had gradually &C.

By Mary L. Bray

Little Emily knew a great deal about
men. She was nineteen and had been
twice engaged, with a third engage
ment now imminent. She was pretty,
had a clever wit and a pair of dancing
eyes whose depths men longed to pene-
trate. A dainty and dashing originali-
ty marked her manner and her dress.
No wonder, said envious persons, that
a girl born with such a quiver of at
fractions should have adorers falling
constantly before her arrows.
Now Emily's cousin, Honoria, was
better looking, as standards go. She
was tall, of classic type and fine color
ing. Honoria could talk intelligently
among women or among old friends;
but a natural difidence in the presence
of man, particularly of man with pre-
sumable intentions, often made her
bushing and dumb at the very time
when she wished most for natural self
expression. She did not suffer from
lack of admiration, mostly Of the un-
uttered, worshipful kind; but she had
to accept from those who voluntarily
sought her out and offered homage;
she could not, like Emily, cast an ex-
pert eye over the field and draw to her
the most interesting victim. All un-
aware of this limitation, she had been
content until the advent of a certain
man. Now, in stinging humility, hand
some Honoria came to Emily for
counsel.
It was a summer morning. Emily
in a short-waisted, ankle-length dim
ity, with a bit of blue ribbon for a
belt a pair of long gloves over her
bare arms, and an enormous hat bent
into the shape of a poke bonnet tied
by blue ribbon, might have stepped
from the pages of Kate Greenaway, as
she bent over a long row of sweet peas
in her garden, shipping their brilliant
and too prolific bloom. Honoria sighed
as she looked over the gate. Emily
would be charming, digging earth
worms! Now, l in such a costume"
Hello, Honoria!" the CHEEKY greet .

again, opened the gate and went in.

utes, Il know you'll think me fool.
At least, l am wise enough to come to
you for advice. There's something l
want to do and don't know how l

BAD BLOOD
OFTEN INHERITED

Bad blood does not always come as
the result of careless 1iving, or indis-
cretions; it is condition frequently
inherited. Normal, healthy blood
contains millions of tiny red corpus
Giles. which are the vitalizing and
nourishing elements of the circulation,
their Office being to provide every
portion Of the system with its neces-
sary strength and nutriment. In
weak, impure blood these corpuscles
are lacking in numbers. and therefore
the blood is not able to supply the
proper amount of nourishment to the
body. Bad blood manifests itself in
many ways. With some it takes the
form of skin diseases and eruptions,
others become bilious and malarious,
with sallow complexions, torpid liver,
etc. Bad blood produces Rheumatism,
Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Scrofula
and like troubles. Nothing is equal
to S. s. 8. as 4 remedy for bad blood;
