SBNSITIVENIJSS - IDIOSYN- CRASY-ALIERGY nus T0 rooos AND 01mm SUBSTANCES

When we trunk of over-sensitive- ness to certain substances (belng allergic) we are apt to think only of that. large army of bay fever

weed pollen for six or eight weeks every year. It is likely that rag- weed pollen affects a larger num- ber or individuals than any other one substance.

However, Dr. Elliott. R. Welt. in an article in I-Iygeia. W115 115 that this sensltiveness — idiosyn- crasy or allergy—actually affects about 90 percent of all adults. That is nearly all of us are sensitive or allergic to one or more smsIancIs. although the effects or symptoms caused by these substances may be so light that many even notice them. "Same people are affected in fields of clover or at hay mak-ng time. others in the presence of horses or even when a black cat. or any other kind of a cat. crosses their path. These case=

“Then there is the type of a11- crgy in which the victim displays a profound sensitivity when he ls brought. 1n contact with certain drugs or chemicals that are not protein in nature. which fortunate-- Iy give rlse only to irritations of the skin.

The American social and politi- eal outlook too was a serious one. "The presidential campaign of 1840 was the most. extraordinary that the country has ever known."

The settlement of the differences, wlh the UnitedStates was thus one of the first objects to which? Peel and Aberdeen gave them-l selves.

Sir Charles Bagot, they appointed governor-general of Canada Lorri Ashburton to the United States.

Both these appointments were

deemed good on many grounds, Asbburton a5 a young man had spent several years tn the Unltedl States. Ho had listened to de- bates in the house of congress‘ when Jay's treaty ‘was under dls- r-nssion. Hi5 business count-choirs w'th the Americans were many. as were also his social relations.

He had travelled In northern Maine where his fBther-ln-lam- owned land and had visited the territory 1mm was afterwards In dispute.

Bagot was also acceptable and competent. President John Quincy Adams. never too well disposed to British representatives, express: In his diary his personal opinion of Bagot and his work at Washing- lmr-"He has restded here three greats. and though coming Im- mediately after a. war in which the national feelings here were highly exasperated against hi; country. he made himself unl- versaJly acceptable. No English Minister has ever been so popular."

Apparently the Important Issue for Peel and his government was the settlement or relations with the United States.

The late Sir James Bar-he's career goes back to the misty time. when great Victorians were still in spate. On his way to school at Dumfiie: he used to see Carlyle out walking but never managed to talk to that; brooding volcano. He was a friend of Robert Inuis Stevenson and meant to visit him 1n Samoa. “Take the boat at San Francisco," Stevenson wrote to him. ‘and my place ls the second on the left." He. was a friend and writing eon- temporary of George Meredith. W. E. Henley, Henry James and others

Barrie was a little man of re- treating habits, not remarkable in a crowd except for his broad brow and his eyes. He lived by turnsclf 111a. Landon flat, (guarded by a.

Yet his career and personality were as well known to the public as Mr. Shaw's which must. prove either that. ‘the Shavlan technique of self- adverltsemcnt was defective or that no man of genius can hide from publicity.

It is notorious, for Instance. that Barrie was born in the Scotch weaving town of Klrrlemutr- known 1n story as 'I‘hrum"- and that Klrrlemulr, which ha: since put up a brass plate and taken on such airs as Scottish modesty will allow. at, first, viewed his literary ambition with alarm.
