ARsENICAL WALL. .PAPERs.-At late meet
ing OF the Michigan State Board of Health,
DR.. r. G. Kedzie, from the Committee on
Poisons, presented q book Of specimens Of ar.
senical wallpapers. gathered from various
sources. which be had inscribed "Shadows
from the Walls of Death" In presenting
this subject. DR.. Kedzie stated that the case OF
DR.. B., mentioned in the paper published in
the report Of the Secretary of the State Board
OF Health, was too recent to pronounce deci-
sively on the effects of removal of the poison
Gus wallpaper. But sufficient time has now
elapsed to show the effect Of such removal.
DR.. B. and his boys have entirely recovered
from the obscure and unpleasant affections
with which they were afflicted while occupying
q room whose walls were covered with arseni-
cal wall-pape Mrs. j., of Saginaw. had been
an invalid for some time while occupying o
of light green color She particularly OBJ
served an increase of her unpleasant symptoms
after sweeping and dusting her rooms. She
travelled for her health. and always received
benefit by absence from home. only to relapse
upon her return to her room. Attention was
called to the wall lpaper as possible source OF
her sickness. and on analysis it was found tn
contain equal to half grain of arseniOus
acid to the square foot of surface. The paper
was Mt once removed from the room and she
recovered her health. tits remarkable that SO
small an amount t. the square foot of surface
should produce such decided symptoms of ar.
senical poisoning. It shows how dangerous
the material is, even when present in small
quantities Mr.. H.. q prominent lawyer al
Mason, had his house papered with wallpaper
of beautiful pattern, containing q considera
ble amount Of green. Mrs. II. and the chill
dren soon after became feeble in health. fol
which there was no apparent reason. Hii
attention was directed to the arsenica
green in his wallpaper as possible cause o.
this i'll health. BY examining the Report of the
State Board Of Health. The wall paper wal
tested for arsenic. aud this substance wal
found present. The paper was immediatel,
removed. and Mr.. II. reports that they are all
better, and that Mrs H. has recovered her us
ual health. A case was reported from Jack
son county. where child died under circum
stances which led to the belief that it had beer
poisoned by arsenic. Samples "f wallpape
was sent toDr Kedzie for analysis. and ont
sample contained 16 grains to the square
foot Of surface. The paper containing tn
greatest amount Of arsenic was pnt on tn
room adjoining the child's room last Spring
DR.. Kcdzie recommended that such a book "
specimens should be placed in the public i
J brares. in order that public opini"n mas b
created that will drive these deadly shadow
from the homes of our people.
