" A lie ! a wicked lie !"—'hakspere.
Tn "The Illustrated Times" of May 17th, an account is given cif
this terrible poison, as,followa :—" Indeed,: strychnine itself i; all
important medical agent. In very small and repeated doses it pro-
motes the. appetite, 'and
~a,sists the digestive .process." We know
not whether atter. Palmer's trial people will feel inclined to try
strychnine to improve theit digestive'powers, but we should ratly,r
think Not Yo ! we give the lie to the assertion, that stryetinine IS
anything but a deadly poison. which always answers the purpose of
. killing. To is by these terrible 'poisons being put in tho Pharma-
`eopreta, ad Useful for this 'bud that oettplaint, that John Bull Is:
galled and pobursed, and which forms the prtgruxT for doctors hold-
ing them out to the world as medicines ! (Heaven save the mark)..
We Say again and again, that there can be nothing " tredicinal" Sc
such a poison as this infernal strychnine, and hereby stake our ex.•
istence Upon the fact.
The same dod e is adopted as regards sulphate of copper, the
poison with which the bottled fruits are coloured—ln the. Pharma.-
, corceia it figures away as useful in Biopsies !! ' The liars ! We dett
them to show that a single else of dropsy was ever or can to cured
by such a Poison—ls .Tohn Bull awake yet ?
