A strange case of poisoning is reported
from Stettin. A gentleman had bought
hat in shop there, and after having
worn it one or two days was troubled
with unbearable headache. At the same
time little ulcers formed upon his fore
head, his eyes were infiamed, and the
whole OF the upper part of his head was
much swollen. 1t was evident that these
symptoms we're caused by the hat, and
upon examination by the chemist 1t w as
found that the brown leather in the In.
side of the hat was colored with poison
Gus aniline dye. 1t appears that the in
flammation is unavoidable when this dye
is in contact with any part of the skin,
