POISONS THAT LURK IN INNO-
CENT FLOWERS

Many people fall into the habit of
unconsciously biting off petals of
flowers, the stems and leaves Of
plants ETC., and chewing them. This
is a dangerous practice, as analyses
of the juices of the different plants
have showp many of them to contain
dangerous poisons.
Red poppies, the source of opium,
will produce drowsiness if chewed,
and poisons in the leaves of the au-
tumn crocus cause vomiting. Flow
ers of the jonquil, white hyacinth
and snowdrop are all poisonous; if a
small leaf of the narcissus should be
put in the mouth the result might be
fatal, as it contains dangerous
poison.
People have lost their lives as a
result OI LdSLlnS l!lc DeIIicS VI lle
yew and it is a we'll known fact that
eating the kernals from peach or
cherry pits is fraught with danger,
as, they contain prussic acid. Every
enc knows Of the painful, disagree
able results that follow handling
poison ivy, and lady's slippers some
times poison even as much as ivy
does. Lobelias are poisonous, and
lilies of the valley, seeminly, the
most innocent of plants, should be
handled with caution. The leaves
and flowers of the oleander contain
an irritating substance and even
bark of the catalpa tree will often
work harm when handled with
sweat hands. Some of the common
and supposedly least harmful trees.
flowers, ect., contain substances
which are injurious when taken into
the body or when allowed to come in
contact with the skin.

"THE EAGLES WINGS"

Party lines were obliterated by the
fight in Congress over the Maynard
preparedness measure. Senator
Wright, millionaire pump manufac-
turer, is leader Of the opposition.
Richard Wallace, foreman of the
Wright's works, is in love with Mona
Wright, but her fathers opposition,
based largely on Wallace's enthus-
iasm for preparedness, is an insur-
mountable obstacle to Wallace's am
bition.
While the Maryland Bill is under
discussion before Chairman Wright's s
committee, Wallace goes to the bor-
der to establish pumping system
on the ranch of Senator Wright S
son. Responding to an invitation to
visit his sons ranch, the Senator in
definitely adjourns consideration, in
committee of the Maynard Bill, and
leaves for New Mexico. While Sena-
tor Wright is on the border Mexican
bandits make raid, and Wright and
the other men are forced to give Wig
orous battle in defence of their loved
ones
Wright wires to the War Depart
ment to send an army to defend the
border. The department answers
that it has no army. Wright, now a.
live, to the emergency, returns to
Washington and in vigorous speech,
swings enough of the opposition to
support the Maynard Bill and pass it
by a large majority. Wallace has
long cherished plans for industrial
cooperation in time of National
need, and he is now called before
the president and cabinet to explain
his ideas for the captains OF America
industry to come to the rescue of the
country.
Every lathe and wheel that can
be applied in any way to manufac-
turing guns and munitions is put to
work for the army and navy. For
eign intrigue is baffled and America
is quickly prepared.
