SOME WORDS ABOUT EMETINe
Medical Journal Says Care Must Be Exercised in Using Poison for
 Treating Pyorrhea.

The great increase in the use of emetine hydrochloride in the treatment of pyorrhea and in amoebie dysen- tery makes timely a warning by the Journal of the American Medical As sociation to the effect that the prepa- rations of this drug now on the market vary widely in their strength, and that at least one reputable manufacturer Is Supplying a product so unusually toxic as to prohibit it's use, at any rate In anything approaching the ordinary dose"
 This warning is based upon two cases at Johns Hopkins medical clinic in which symptoms of poisoning and in one instance death resulted from the administration of emetine hydro chloride in the usual way. As result of these, Drs. R. L. Levy and l.. G. Rowntree analysed specimens of the drug and found the variations noted.
 This is all the more important in view of the many quacks who are ad- vertising cures for pyorrhea, most of which consist of emetine.

A personal friend of mine, writes 8 correspondent of the Manchester Guardian. had an amazing experience with bullet-proof armor. When he was in Paris at the beginning of the war, a fluent French inventor persuaded him to give him an opportunity to demon. strate in England thin chain-armor shirt, which he said would resist any bullet or bayonet. A sample shirt had been hung up and fired at with satis- factory results, but 1t was with some skepticism that my friend attended the official demonstration.
 However, to oblige the inventor, he put on one of the shirts to show its comfort and flexibility. It was then that the inventor achieved dramatic effect, for he whipped out an auto matic pistol and blazed away straight at my friends chest. Fortunately the armor proved successful. Before he had recovered enough breath even to protest, a war official grasped him warmly by the hand
