SINGULAR C

OINGULAR ASP, Ok POISONING AT LIVERPOOL.
—A mysterious case of poNoning was investigated by the
Liverpool coroner on Thursday. The facts of the case are
these :—Ellen Fairclough, aged 5 years, the daughter of a
labourer, and a little boy raamed John Spencer, on Tuesday
afternoon wore in the Y.icighbourhood of Walton. When
near the church at tliat place they were met by two young
n, one of whom told the children to open their mouths,
and then placed in each a piece of something that looked
like " white soda," making the children swallow it, throw-
ing the little boy down, to make him accede to their wiehes.
Immediately afteraards the latter became unwell, and
vomited, but he I:eltivoately recovered. The girl e.iso became
very sick, and, on reaching home informed her mother of
what had taktbn. place, when the latter went to a druggist
in Scotland-tod, and procured an emetio, which she ad-
ministered I'o the child. Warm water was also given to her,
by which
,
the vomiting was eoutinued.. Tho child, how-
ever,
l'srew worse, and died the following day. A post
mort.em examination of the body showed the cause of death
to 'be congestion of the brain, but whether from natural
causes or the administering of a narcotic poison, Dr. Ayr-
ton, who made the examination, was unable to say posi-
tively, unless there was an analysis of the stomach and its
contents. his opinion was that death was caused by a
narcotic poison. The scoundrels who administered the
stuff to the children are being looked after by the police.
Tho verdict of tlie coroner's jury was, " That death wA,E4
caused by narcotic poison, but by, whom administered t/aere
was no `,-feidence to show."

[AnvEurrisEnt ENT.]—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
Remarkable Recovery.—Mothers and nurses should read
the testimonials to the efficacy of Holloway's remedies in
subduing scarlatina, diphtheria, bronchitis, and those
inflammatory complaints which are now committing such
havoc both amongst children and adults. A wife writes,
46 I had only rubbed your Ointment on the throat two days
in a case of bronchitis, when my husband in a most re-
markable manner and in less than a week was quite well."
Such testimony should be known to persons liable to
throat affections, and all families generally. The worst
ulcers, sores, and wounds become clean, and soon grow
up under the application of Holloway's Ointment, which
always rrevent2 the spread o ihllithluAtio4 and wAwaltUY
