MUSHROOMS

For many people, mushrooms are a delicacy. Unfortunately

at this point not hygiene is according to taste.

The most illustrious sages speak of mushrooms

as one of the unhealthy foods that can be.

Absorbed after - say - break down mushrooms by

putrefaction enter as in the stomach and making it infects

mass and nauseous.

Furthermore, we see daily in the newspapers whole families

poisoned by mushrooms and perish after many hours of

suffering appalling.

There is reason to tremble, but, in spite this, they have

always eaten mushrooms and continue eating.

We provide a great service by disseminating best recipe

known to date to not poison with mushrooms, is the famous

Gerard.

First you must take great care and others will not eat those

mushrooms perfectly *

mind known and experienced by people credible.

We must not rely on these popular beliefs that consist in

introducing a silver spoon or a gold ring in the pan where

you cook the mushrooms, to recognize the good or bad

quality of these;

there is no basis to believe in such things.

The procedure to clean up poisonous mushrooms removing

their harmful principles is as follows:

cut into four or eight pieces, depending on their size, are

soaked in cold water, which is poured, per liter of water, half

a cup of strong vinegar and a handful of salt. At two hours

take mushrooms, washed in plenty of water, put then for ﬁve

minutes in boiling water squeeze a little. The operation ends

with this.

The poisonous principles are absorbed by the water, salt

and vinegar. This can be prepared pot or skillet mushrooms

without fear.

In Russia the peasants caught all kinds of mushrooms,

without discrimination and layered stratiﬁed

salt. After a few weeks, the beads washed extensively,

the cook and eat safely.

Nevertheless, we repeat that is required utmost caution; eat

fewer mushrooms, better for our health.

Case of poisoning by mushrooms, see Poisons and

antidotes article.

For this purpose, we noted the following remedy seems very

safe to be effective:

Dilute a tablespoon of water, heat or cold, a tablespoon of

salt and another of mustard:

ill take this mixture rapidly.

Just work taken as an emetic, dragging that is in the

stomach.

So that no remnants of the poison, Lomé

1 egg yolk sick and after a cup of

coffee, or one eye.

But these latter substances are administered

- To cancel a large number of violent poisons but when it is calm the stomach,

ie, not throw anything.

Note. - Again, the mushrooms are food

insane and always dangerous, it is prudent to do without of

them.

SNUFF

(Solanaceae, L.) Nicotiana tabaclm.

The snuff is poison. Work on the entire system nervous

predisposes to cerebral congestion, causes it to lose

memory and the vividness of imagination, forced to spit in

abundance, which irritates the stomach, gives a bad odor to

breath and cushions taste and smell.

Should banned snuff, cigarette, cigar, the pipe, etc.. ?

The great scholars disagree on ELSE point: some say that if

that is necessary to prohibit the use of snuff, others say no.

In my view, there is no need to prevent me ered use of snuff

in the various forms used

(Cigar cigar, cigarette paper, pipe, etc..)

blameworthy is abuse.

In my view, the moderate use of snuff responds to an

imperative, producing feelings nice, dispels the ideas sad,

rejoices life is the indispensable complement to a good

food and comforts the unfortunate man is forced to satisﬁed

with a piece of bread and a glass of water.

A false moral preachers will tell you that during my long

career I have met thousands of unfortunates deprivation

endured by best bread that of snuff. In my many travels I

have seen that men smoke, chew or snuff snuff taking in

all climates, in all grades of civilization, under all conditions

of social life.

Conclusion: used moderately of snuff;

but abstain from abusing it.

The cigarette.

It is proven that the habit of smoking cigarettes is so harmful

to young to adults it is smoking opium.

The snuff stimulates the nerves, then the numb.

The snuff put to consumptive youth, hypertrophy heart,

crazy.

Many children have been lovely to this cause are sick and

stupeﬁed! The cigarette paper is worse than pipe or cigar. If

this practice continues, it weakens the action of heart and

decreases the blood ﬂow.

Apart from that the quality of snuff for cigarettes paper is

less harmful is how smoke them. The smoke, as if they

expect that if returns by the nose, dryness occurs

treasure.

for ﬁve minutes,

breathing vapor until the tea is cold.
