Naphthaline

Definition of Naphthaline:

The Maskil recommenced to write in Hebrew; dealers in produce, to drive out into the country; brokers, to make money; the Sunday market was crowded with peasants, the public- houses filled; salt, naphthaline and other household wares began to sell. "Stories and Pictures", Isaac Loeb Peretz.
Persian powder or naphthaline "Plays by Chekhov, Second Series On the High Road, The Proposal, The Wedding, The Bear, A Tragedian In Spite of Himself, The Anniversary, The Three Sisters, The Cherry Orchard", Anton Chekhov.
In the corner, on the chimney- shelf, stands a little empty lamp, with a cracked globe; the naphthaline is exhausted, there is no one to go and buy more. "Stories and Pictures", Isaac Loeb Peretz.
But he did not know the bitter fountain of despondency whence flowed those naphthaline streams of passion. "Julian Home", Dean Frederic W. Farrar.
