certain cutaneous eruptions which manifest themselves,especially at this time of the year. It is thus quite possiblethat some of this dangerous solution becomes mixedwith the milk used for the preparation of cheese and isin this way the source of poisoning. The Governor-Generalof the place prohibited the further sale of the cheese.

. Turkish Liquorioe Root.

The Levant Herald has an article on the above sub-

ject which will be of interest to medical men. Liquoriceroot grows wild in the fields of Asia Minor and few attemptshave been made thus far towards its cultivation. It growschiefly in the Meander and Hermus valleys, and until 50years ago was practically unused. It is stated that theroot grown on the Meander plains is the best in the world,being superior to those found in Syria, Mesopotamia,Caucasus, Siberia, or China. The exporters of the rootslease liquorice-bearing lands for a period of from three tofive years. Digging usually begins in October and is doneby peasants, who at the end of each day deliver the rootsto the various depots and receive payment according tothe quantity which they bring. The wages earned dependentirely upon the industry of the individual labourer. Theroots are piled up and exposed to the air until about May orJune. They then weigh only half as much as originallyowing to the thorough drying process to which they havebeen subjected. The roots are sorted to obtain the qualitiesknown as "d6bris" and "baguette," both of which arehighly valued. The quantity and consumption of these twoqualities are but small compared with the unsorted rootsexported for the manufacture of liquorice powder. From theUnited States comes the principal demand for liquorice rootwhich is shipped there in its natural state as raw material,being admitted free of duty. It is converted into liquoricepaste for medicinal purposes and is also used for flavour-ing plug tobacco. Liquorice root in its original state can alsobe found in any drug store in America. Liquorice intendedfor European markets is first converted into paste in factoriesnear Smyrna. It is shipped in cases which, when full,weigh about 330 pounds each. Recently small " loaves " havebeen prepared for export which weigh from 8 to 11 poundseach, 24 of which are packed in a single case. England isthe chief purchaser of liquorice in the paste, only smallquantities being exported to other European countries. This

paste sells at 57s. 8d. in cases of 330 pounds and theloaves "at 73s. 6d. in cases of 220 pounds.Oct. 24th.

CONTINENTAL ANGLO-AMERICAN MEDICALSOCIETY : ANNUAL MEETING AND DINNER.-The annualmeeting of this society was held in Paris on Oct. 18th. Dr.A. R. Coldstream (Florence) was in the cuair and the follow-ing members were present: Dr. G. H Brandt and Dr. J.Egerton Brandt (Nice and Royat). Dr. Cormack (Vichy andHyeres), Dr. Cafferata (Spa), Dr. E. H. Douty (Cannes) Dr.Heinemann (Bad-Nauheim), Dr H. J. Johnston Lavis (Beau-lieu), Dr. Treves-Barber (Geneva) Dr. Sillery Vale (Arcn,chon),Dr Bull, Dr. Magnin, Dr. Groq, Dr Jarvis, Dr. Riviere, DrMarucheau, Dr. W. Turner, Dr. A. A. Warden, and Dr. LeonardN. Robinson (Paris) The honorary secretary presented hisreport and announced that it was proposed to place a brasstablet to the memory of the Hon. Alan Herbert, M.D., in thechapel of the Hertford British Hospital. The honorary secre-tary announced to the society that he would resign his officeat the next annual meeting. After the report of the treasurerhad been approved, the voting papers were examined to fillthe vacancies on the executive committee, resulting in theelection of Dr. G. Sandison Brock (Rome) Dr. Magnin andDr. Warden (Paris), and Mr. A Hugh Gibbon (Naples) The

following five candidates for membership were duly elected :Mr. Frederick Michael Bishop (Varenna and Cadenabbia);Dr. Marc de Lewis (Nice) ; Dr. Bryden Glendining (Madrid) ;Dr. Frederick Aylmer Holt (Nice and Aix-les-Bains) ; andDr. Arthur Gerald Welsford (Rome). The general businesswas then taken. It was decided that henceforth th-executive committee should be a representative one inwhich every member should sit in alphabetical rotationfor one year, Paris, France, Italy, and Egypt bbing repre-sented by three members each, and all countries having morethan tvo members by one each. Should any member soelected refuse or be unable to serve, then the next member

in alphabetical order shall be called upon to do so. It was

agreed that the medical secretary should vacate his seat atthe end of every three years and should not be eligible forre-election for the next six years, and that he should beempowered to employ a lay secretary on terms to be

approved by the executive committee. In the absence of Dr,Danvers, Dr. Robinson announced that motion No. 6 fell tothe ground. This motion dealt with the proposal to hang upa notice in the various offices of the Wagon Lits Companyand at Thomas Cook and Sons announcing that the Anglo.Saxon travelling public might obtain a list of fully qualifiedEnglish and American physicians resident and practising onthe continent of Europe and North Africa (Egypt, Algiers,and the Canary Islands), these companies being supplied bythe society with lists of members for distribution to thosewho asked for them. Before this motion was placed on thebusiness of the meeting Dr. Robinson wrote to Professor W.Osler who, after consultation with Sir R. Douglas Powell andSir Dyce Duckworth, replied "that there could be no possibleobjection to such a notice, and it would certainly be a greathelp and convenience to the travelling public." The WagonLits Company when approached on the subject asked £500per annum for putting up such a notice in their 30 principalagencies. Thomas Cook and Sons, after inquiring from theiragents in all places in which members of the society practised,said that they " find it impossible to file the list of membersbecause the list is not a complete list of qualified men butmerely a list of such of these as are members of the society."It would, therefore, be to the advantage of the societyand of the travelling public if the list could be madeas complete as possible by the inclusion in it of allduly qualified and eligible British and American practi.tioners on the continent of Europe and North Africa,After other business a hearty vote of thanks to the chairmanbrought the meeting to a close.-The annual dinner of thesociety was held in the evening at the Hotel de Palaisd’Orsay. Mr. Frank H. Mason, United States Consul-General in Paris, occupied the chair, and 28 members andtheir guests were present. The guests included ProfessorTuffier (surgeon to the Beaujon and Hertford BritishHospitals), Dr. Chapman (Hertford British Hospital), Dr.Leredde, Dr. Desfosses, Dr. Lutaud, Dr. Paul Lutaud, andFather McMullan. In addition to members attending theafternoon meeting Mr. J. A. Goodchild (Bordighera), Dr.A. S. Gubb (Algiers and Aix-les-Bains), and Dr. Koenig(Paris) were present. The chairman proposed the health ofthe members of the three nations which were nearest to alltheir hearts, "The King of E-gland, the President of theUnited States, and the President of the French Republic."The three nations, he said, were allied by race, hyinterest, and by sympathy, and were in the van ofintellectual progress and civilisation. The chairman next

proposed " Success to the Society," wishing it longlife and continued vitality and an increase of its

sphere of usefulness. Dr. Coldstream replied on behalfof the society. Dr. Douty proposed " The Guests," coupledwith the name of Profes>or Tuffier, whom he was gladto hear had recently been appointed to the post of

surgeon to the Hertford British Hospital, so that henow became one of them and was a living expressionof the " entente cordiale." Professor Tuffier returnedthanks and said that it gave him great pleasure to

be surgeon to the Hertford British Hoipital. Hewould do his utmost to maintain the efficiency of the

hospital and he hoped the ’’entente cordiale" wouldlong continue. During his connexion with English peoplehe had been particularly struck by the "humour" of theEngrish, a purely national product due to " entente

"

between the brain and the stomach. Father McMullan alsoreplied on behalf of the guests. Dr. Magnin proposed thehealth of the chairman, and Mr. Mason’s reply broughtto a close one of the most enjoyable dinners of thesociety.

MEDICAL MEN AND MUNICIPAL WORK.-OnTuesday, Oct. 22nd, Dr. Henry Gervis was the guest ofhonour at a complimentary banquet in racognition ofhis work as Mayor of Brighton. It is no sinecure to be

mayor of an important borough like Brighton but duringthe municipal year now fast drawing to a close Dr.Gervis filled the office of chief magistrate with satisfaction toall parties, and the banquet was attended by a thoroughlyrepresentative company of townsmen, showing that his workhad been appreciated. There is room for more representatives

1285

of the medical profession in municipal life ; questions in which Iskilled opinion and advice are absolutely essential are

continually arising in our great municipalities. Nothingis more important to Brighton-a town the prosperity ofwhich depends upon its visitors-than that it should

always have a clean bill of health, and thus can be seenthe necessity of having on the governing authority thosewho8e whole lives are spent in the preservation of the publichealth.
