I MEANING OF “NEPENTHE.” And the Olden Time Use of Potions and Love Philters. A correspondent asks for the meaning of the word "nepenthe” in Poe’s famous poem of "The Haven.” Nepenthe, according to the dictionary, means “a kind of magic potion supposed to make persons forget their sorrows and misfortunes; any drug capable of removing pain or care?’ The keynote in “The Haven” is grief or remorse, and the line in which the word in question is used runs thus: | Kespite. respite, and nepenthe of thjj j ’ memories of Lenore. i So “nepenthe” would be in unpoetic I words a prescription or a potion , or philter that would bring forI getfulness and the respite from sorj row that came with this oblivion. The ancients had great faith in these potions or philters, using them with different imports. Nepenthe, which is supposed to have contained opium, was the agent that ( brought forgetfulness, while the difj ferent love philters, compounded j from various substances from the J animal and vegetable kingdoms—according to the whim of the “alchemist” or the old hag who mixed them—were supposed to arouse in the breast of the receiver a great love for the sender. The old time writers are filled ; with allusions to these queer po--1 tions, which are on a par with the . “conjure bags” of our own southern negroes. Into these “conjure bags” the “conjure man” or woman puts i anything that is weird or abnormal, from “terrapin toes” to twisted roots and locks of hair tied with ' strange knots. I They are all alike, a matter of , superstition. The queer bags did I not bewitch the receivers any more ' than the love philters were Cupid’s I messengers. The nepenthe, having a modicum of opium in it, probably came nearer being a memory stupefier than any of the others, since it put the user to sleep. In an opium stupor even the “maiden whom the j angels called Lenore” would be ! “nameless here.”—Memphis ComI mercial Appeal. A Bad Dream. It is not likely that any English speaking people understand so keen and punctilious a devotion to the niceties of language as that which characterizes the French grammarians. We may help ourselves to understand it perhaps by reading a story told of M. Lamany. One night he awoke and sprang out of bed with a wild cry. His i wife came running. He was in I alarm and despair. j “Why, what is the matter?” she : gasped. “I dreamed,” said the professor. “Oh, I had a horrible, a heartrending dream!” “'What was it?’ “1 dreamed 1 was talking, and 1 1 distinctly heard myself utter a sentence which had a grammatical error in it!” Complimentary. Young Mr. Thorndyke, an Englishman, who was very prominent socially, was invited to dine with i the Allisons one evening. Louis, the younger son of the Allisons, had been allowed to be one of the party. During a silence at the dinner table, the boy asked: “Are you an Englishman?” “Yes,” laughed Mr. Thorndyke. “Don’t you like Englishmen ?” “Oh, yes,” was the response “Our butler is an Englishman. Mother always says Englishmen make the most capable house servants in the world.”—National Monthly.
