Arsenic In the Hair.

New light has been thrown on the le-
gal side of arsenic poisoning. 1t has
been found that arsenic compounds are
absorbed by the hair OF living persons,
though not absorbed after death. In
the hair of man arsenic has been known
to reach a concentration Of one to FIVE
parts In 100000. The deposit takes
place in the hair after 1t has been alb
sorbed by the abdominal organs-liver
and kidneys in particular. Therefore.
in case of acute, quick poisoning, a
chemical analysis Of the hair would
show no arsenic, while 1t would be
found In the liver and kidneys.
On the other hand, II slow arsen-
lie poisoning was suspected, analysis
would show arsenic In the hair, but
not In the liver and kidneys, and II
could safely be assumed that the poi
soning was not recent The legal value
Of such evidence Is apprehension
