BRITISH WHIG, SATURDAY, JANUARY 28, 1911. THE WONDERS OF ARSENIC. Accumulative Poison Used to Beau tify the Complexion. ! "You no doubt have observed the | } lily white complexion of some women. | These women are sacrificing years of i their lives for that beautiful skin | by the use of arsenic," sad D.V. i Duvall, a chemist of Manchester, | England. " "It is a well-known fact that thous- ands of women in all countries of the. world use the poison in small guanti- ties to bleach their skin. I is an el. fective means of whitening and clear. ing the complexion, but thé com- | plexion given by its use has no per- | manency unless the absorption of the drug is continued. J. "Arsenic," as science has long told us, is an sccumulative poison. When one takes it either by prescription for the upbuilding of an appetite or for the bleaching of the skin, he does not feel any illeffects for several years. The effect of the drug is brac- | ' ing and makes a person feel like eat- ing. It also aids the digestion. The average user of the poison takes it in such small quantities that he does - not realize how much of it will ae cumulate in the system in the course of four or five years. 5 "Being an accumulative poison, it often takes that length of time to see the results of the drug. Them the user may complain of being unable | to control his fingers or toes. Sub. | sequently he loses control of his | hands and arms. poison | is the result. "Five years in Manchester there was an epi ic of paralysis. Several thousands of persons were | stricken. Several hundreds died, and | the medical. profession of England made a thorough investigation of the malady and "traced it to beer. The investigators discovered that the brewers were using a glucose in brewing of their product which was | found to contain a small quantity of arsenic. This drug, imbibed in small quantities in beer, had gradually ac- cumulated in the bodies of thousands of persons, had impoverished their blood and left a great percentage of them helpless." Miss Frasep/ the Tailer's Friend. i Just as Mis} Agnes Weston has con- stituted hy the sailors' friend, so Miss Angelica Fraser, who has just died, devoted herself for fifty-four years to the tailors. She was led to undertake her mission amongst knights of the cloth and ne Rev. Dy. Hood Wilson, of Edinburgh, whose "atféntion had been drawn Ww the deplorable conditions of the work- ing tailors by Kingsley's famous no- vel, "Alcon Locke," the story of a tailor poet. The London Tailors' Hall, in Mill street, London, is a monu- ment to Miss Fraser's labor of love. She founded it in 1880, and attended every day fo superintend its work. It is a meeting-house for young tail- ors. The reference library contains the most complete collection of works on cutting in London, and there are a number of tables at which they can practice cutting. Every tailor who ith mi : he had a | part in Saved the Kaiser's Life, It is 20k fenrally known thai Gen. Sir Archi Hunter, whose marriage recently aroused so much interest, was the means of saving the German Em- peror from an accident which might have been attended with fatal ts, when His jesty was paying a visit to: Lord R ry at Dalmeny a few years ago. At that time Gen. Huater was in command of the troops in Scotland, and -was present -in that capacity on the station platform te welcome the Emperor. rd Rose- bery's carriage was wailing, and the Emperor had just taken his seat in it when ona of the commenced to plunge wwlently, and in another instant the pair would have beltad. Like a flash, however, Gen. Hunter reached the animal and dealt §§ a smashing blow on the nose that quick- ly quieted it. Another pair of horses were soon secured, & Hunter re- ceived the hearty thanks of the Kaiser for the smart way< he grappled with the situation, She Was Too Enthusiastic, "Teaching to me," said an enthus- iastic young schoolmistress, "is a holy calling. To sew in the young mind the seeds of future knowledge and watch them as they grow and develo is a pleasure greater than I ¢an tell. I never weary of my work. My fession, Miss Clara.

THE MOTHER OF FIFTY. | Proud Boast of Widow Van Wyk of the Transvaal. i 'In the distriet of Kroonstad, in the Transvaal, lives the widow Van Wyk, history, matrimoniaily otherwise, is--not to put toc fine a point upon it---somewhat out of the Born on October 20th van Wyk (pee Theila M. eventful matrimonial career at the age of eighteen, when she married Petrus Jacobus Lubbe. At the end of two years she became a widow with one child. After being (says The thinus Pretorius, a widower with four children. After living with him for a year and five months he also died, leaving her with five children. After five months she married, for the third time, David Stephanus Pieterse, a widpwer with seven children. With him she lived eleven years and had seven children, when he also died. After five years' widowhood she married, for the fourth time, Daniel Lodewikus Cronje, a widower with eight children. With him she | also lived eleven years and had four ! children, when he, too, died. Five years later she married, for the fifth time, Hendrik Klopper. With him she also lived eleven | years, and had ten children, when he also died. After two years she mar- ried for the sixth time, on this ce casion with Coenraad Hendrik van | Wyk, a widower with five children, | Wyk, a wodower with five children, and with him she had four children. After having lived together for eleven years he also died. She had thus fifty children who call her mother, and about 270 grandchildren. She is still alive at the age of seventy- the eight years: Busy Queen Mary, In business matters Queen Mary is clear and expeditious, methodical and systematic. Her mornings are generally taken up with attending to the voluminous correspondence that ' 1 in waiting submit their letters and the een gives instructions concerning them. According to The North American Review she quickly grasps the main issue of a question and soon makes up her mind, She has never been known to lay aside a matter on the ground that to express an opinion thereon is irksome or difficult. 'But should any letter require further consideration it is held over for a day, when a decision is given and almost invariably ad- hered to. Every consideration is shown fo those privileged to serve the Queen, and before signifying her pleasure as to the personal attendance of mem- bers of her houshold she will often inquire | whether they may not have some other engagement the breaking of which would be inconvenient to them. Busy though the Queen is--and one who has known her for 20 years has never seen her unoccupied--she is intimately acquainted with and takes that relates to the manage. ment of the household. Every ser- vant is known to her, and their con- Her secretary and lad duct is as much a matter of concern to their royal mistress as that of any one else. In fact no detail of life wearies the Queen, hence the reason that her sympathies are wide and all her days full of work. A Plucky Actor. It was Mr. Laurence Irving, who is appearing with such spccess at the Garrick Theatre, London, in "The Un: written Law," who created a sefiss- tion in New York at the beginning of sthis year by making a speech from the stage dealing with the unfairness of dramatic critics, and some time previously he was called to account by experts for saying that the public did not want genuine drama. "If ac- tors only aimed low enough," he said, "sprink their plays with innuen- does, and smeared them over with gore, they would find a large public at their back." By the way, Mr. Irv. ing, who, of course, is the younger son of the late Sir Henry Irving, { strongly objects to being boomed as the son of that famous acter. "The {fact is one of which I am so very proud," he says, "that I could only think poorly of a son who allowed his father's name to be used as a box- office appendage to himself." World's Greatest Bridge-Builder. Starting life in a cotton-mill at nine years of age, Sir William Arrol, who was recently married for the third time, apprenticed himself to a black- smith, and it was the clang of the anvil and the sight of the sparks whieh inspired him with that love of engineering which led him to become the world's greatest bridge-builder. Both the Forth and the Tay bridges were the result of his genius. He is the hero of ane of the greatest Parlia- { mentary hustles on record. When he was an M.P. he sat in the House all day, traveled during the night to Ayr- shire to marry Miss Hodgart, his se- cond wife, and left Scotland in time to vote for the Government on Mr Chamberlain/s fiscal proposals of 1905.
