Hold it -- don't reach for that cold remedy yet.You may not need a doctor for that stuffy nose or hacking cough, but you do need to know what you're taking -- or giving to your child.

"When you take one that has lots of ingredients, you're probably taking some medication you don't need.

Every now and then one of Baltimore's smaller theaters introduces local audiences to an off-Broadway gem that slipped under the radar of larger, more prominent theaters. Craig Lucas' The Dying Gaul is just this type of jewel, and Fell's Point Corner Theatre's production lets it gleam. Like Lucas' better known play, Prelude to a Kiss, The Dying Gaul deals with love and loss. But an equally strong theme is the lethal lure of fortune and fame, in this case, Hollywood. William Runnebaum plays a young writer named Robert, who has written a screenplay titled The Dying Gaul, based on his lover's death from AIDS.

After the Apocalypse (Hosted by director Yasuaki Nakjimi)

Four years ago, Cathy and Bill Marrow happened upon a 100-year-old house for sale on King George Street in historic Annapolis. With its steep asphalt roof and multipaned narrow windows, the home reminded the couple of their many happy visits to the south of France and a lifestyle they found so appealing. Cathy Marrow, a 62-year-old interior designer and home renovator, sized up the Old World-style cottage with the critical eye of a seasoned professional. The interior was "dark as midnight," with worn wallpaper and chopped-up rooms.

DRUIDS.Morgan Llywelyn.Morrow.456 pages. $19.95.Visitors to Britain -- especially those tourists staying in ancienguest houses lacking central heating -- might find themselves thinking about the Romans.When Julius Caesar's troops invaded the isles about 2,000 years ago they brought war and oppressive foreign rule. But they also brought such advances as paved roads, public baths, plumbing and, yes, central heating systems. When the Romans pulled out of the land they had colonized, the native Britons largely ignored these technological marvels instead of using them to help make the Dark Ages a shade brighter.

Irish smiles and sunshine beamed across downtown Baltimore yesterday.A crowd estimated by police at 50,000 (all of them Irish, of course) gathered along Charles Street for the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade, swaying to the rousing melodies of bagpipe bands, waving at men marching in tartan kilts and cheering for young girls kicking up their heels in kelly green dresses."

Mustard may be the oldest condiment in the world, but it's still going strong near the start of the second millennium A.D.This magic ingredient, which adds savor to sauces, spice to grilled foods and a kick to plain old hot dogs, was used by the ancient Greeks both culinarily and medicinally. Roman soldiers scattered its tiny seeds as they invaded Gaul (for which Monsieur Grey and Monsieur Poupon, real mustard entrepreneurs in 1777 France, thank them).But especially in the past half-dozen years, flavored mustards have shown steady growth.
