ART OF POISONING
Toxicology Made a Record In the
Seventeenth Century.

The basis of most poisons In the six
teenth and seventeenth centuries was
arsenic 1t was extremely easy to pro-
cure. the taste was easy to hide. and
until Marsh's test was discovered
about a hundred years ago its traces
were difficult to discover. In the sew
enteenth century toxcology reached
heights that it has never since attain
ed The laboratories of the prisoners
in France and Italy contained secrets
happily lost today.
The preparation Of the potions used
during the reigns Of Louis XIII. and
XIV. may be briefly described. An
animal was doctored with a dose of
arsenic. After death the liquids Of the
body were carefully distilled, and the
resultant was Of extreme virulence,
being composed of the virus of ar
senic and the alkaloids of decomposi-
ton. When the animal thus killed was
credited with bodily venom the dis
titled liquid was a concentration of
three poisons instead of two. For this
reason the toad was the favorite sub
ject of experiment This was the poi
son used by Nine. de Brinvilhers.
Against it medical skill was almost
helpless.
The list Of monarchs whose deaths
were attributed by popular gossip to
the effect of poison is a long one.
Catherine de- Medici was a known poi.
soner. surrounded by prisoners. and
her two sons. Francis II. and Charles
TX. were probably hurried to their
end by the administration Of drugs as
well as by their feeble state Of health
There are some grounds for the as
sertion that Louis XIII. died OF pol
son. His mother. Marie de- Medicl
was said to be the greatest poisonel
of her age. The comment in Paris
