Scarvola Keouigh, Wahl. — This plant is em- 

 ployed by the East Indians as an antidote for 

 fish poison. In Dutch Indies it is known as 

 Bapatjeda. The decoction has a very bitter 

 taste, and acts as a diuretic and slows the heart 

 movements. Hartmann has found in the root 

 two glucosides, oue in the form of microscopic 

 crystals, which produces the characteristic 

 effects of aconite oa the tongue. The other 

 glucoside is a resinous mass. — Apotheker Zei-

According to a German contemporary, the 

 aniline dye trade is likely to be disturbed by a 

 new patent, which is to be worked in conjunc- 

 tion by the Badische Anilin and Soda Fabrik 

 and the Friedr Layer and Co., Joint Stock Ani- 

 lin Works. A reduction of prices for some of 

 the dyes will, it is hoped, be compensated for 

 by an increase in the consumption in branches 

 of industry in which the particular dyes referred 

 to have been previously used. — The British & 

 Colonial Druggist.
