DRUfcS AND POISONS.
*6pular Delusion of the Safoty of tha
"Purely Vegetable."
"Of all popular delusions as to drugs
tnd chemical compounds," said a prom
nent chemist, "perhaps the most harm
rul la that concerning medicines that
»re "purely vegetable.' There seems to
»e almost a universal Impression
imong even the educated classes that
such medicines as are composed en
tirely of vegetable compounds are on
that account harmless, while on the
>tber hand any mineral compound is of
lecesstty poisonous.
"Now, as a matter of fact, not only
las the question of whether a inedl
rtne ts vegetable or mineral not the
lllgbtest relation to its |>oisonous or
3onpolsonous qualities, but In practical
nedlcine It would seem that most of
:he common poisons are vegetable.
Look at the poisons most commonly
cnown and note their composition.
Cake strychnine, aconite, opium, alco
hol, digitalis, hyoscine and cocaine.
Every single one of these Is "purely
regetable,' yet most of the deaths by
:hronlc poisoning rome from one of
iiese. The most powerful poison
mown, "rielne Kobert.' one tive-thou
landth of a grain of which will kill a
{rown man, Is made entirely from the
aator oil bean.
"On the other hand, mnnv minerals,
10 far from being poisonous, are not
>nly harmless, but soothing. Bismuth,
i pure mineral, is given In quite large
juantities even to small babies for the
>urpose of allaying inflammation,
tfhUe iron la one of the most common
"Soda la not only one of the most
mlvereal and harmless of minerals.
>ut it U also largely used In our foods.
Salt Is a pure mineral, yet It is not
mly necessary to life, but one of the
rreateat cleansers and preservatives
mown. Without It bncon and ham

"Of course, there are minerals that
ire highly poisonous, such as mercury,
irsenlc and potassium in certain com
)lnations, but they are neither more
leadly nor more numerous than the
vegetable poisons. This also may be
laid in favor of the mineral poison. It
s considered by nwny physicians that
ts action is much more certain than
ts vegetable brother: rather, vegetable
lolsona are much more uncertain in
ieir action upon the human system.
Hence death by overdose Is more likely
o occur from a vegetable than a min
>ral poison when taken medicinally.

1 Helen Warfield when nineteen years
of ago, by the death of first her father
and a few mouths later her mother,
found herself responsible for the sup
port of herself and several brothers
aud sisters very much younger than
herself. What should she do to feed
aud clothe her little ones? She had
shown some talent In private theatri
cals for histrionics and had been told
that she would achieve success on the
stage. An old friend of her mother
offered to advance a certain sum by
which she might receive some educa
tion as mi actress, aud Helen availed
herself of it. taking lessons of an elo
cutionist
Her instructor did not encourage her,
He told her that her enunciation was
peculiar to herself and that it was un
attractive. As fur her action, especial
ly her facial expression, it was all that
could lie desired, l.ut she could not
hope to please with that alone, and her
enunciation iron!J so repel an audl
ence that her valuable qualities would
uot be appreciated.

diences and she would with the same
gifts please tin- public. Helen believed
them because s!ie preferred to believe
them. She iliti not Know tliat intimate

Helen, enroll ragel by lier friends,
persevered After a hasty preparation
she ::lie::ip;ed. with the assistance of
friends, to get an encasement. She
was offered parts in which she would
lulu* tint a lew words to say, but she
felt that they would Kive her no oppor
tunity to show what she could do, and
she pushed on t">>r something better.
Finally, at the earnest solicitation of
a friend, she was given a trial. It was
I arranged that she should understudy

I soon as she was ready to make the

| iu due time she appeared in the role
she had been piepariug for. She made
a dismal failure. She felt her part,
acted her part, but she could not speak
her part. As her preceptor had warned
her. her enunciation spoiled the whole.
"What shall 1 do?" she moaned. "I
have spent the money furnished me to
study and have failed."
"I have heard," said her instructor,
"that these men who show moving
I photographs are beginning to give little

you might make something in that

Helen's heart sank within her.

! Nevertheless, goiiw home to a lot of

food for them, sent her the next day to
a studio 'where a picture play was just
beginning to be made ready for pres
entation to the public. Although the
! manager had no experience at that
! early date in producing such plays, It
j occurred to him that the chief feature
i in them was the acting, especially the
1 facial expression. Beauty was also an
advantage, and Helen was comely.

Helen was surprised. How easy was

with her efforts to secure a trial at

bind the bargain and fearing some oth

the day when famous actors and
actresses are proud to perform by pho

terpreting humanity by expression,
though she has no gift whatever for
rendering it in speech. The plays se
lected for her are such as may be ren

title role in some of the famous plays,
but they are those in which the
strength lies in the acting rather than
the speech.
It is needless to add that Helen War
