Where Hemlock Grows.

Poison hemlock is rather common on
Waysides and in waste places in New
York, West Virginia, Pennsylvania
New Jersey and Ohio and not rare in
the New England states and in Michi-
gan. The symptoms in man are such
as are due to q general and gradual
weakening of muscular power. The
power of sight is often lost, but the
mind usually remains clear until death
ensues. as it soon does from the grad
ual paralysis of the lungs.
A very common but poisonous weed
is the jtmson weed, which is now, COM
mon in waste grounds about dwellings
in an of the states east of Iowa and
Louisiana, with perhaps the exception
of Minnesota. Cases of poisoning
arise in adults from its excessive use
as a stfmulant or as a medicine. Chill.
dren are sometimes tempted to eat the
fruit if they are permitted to play
where the weed is to be found.
