We trust our friends will at once see

In simple looking things there
may lurk deadly poison. The habit
some people have of eating peach ker-
nels will, we are sure, be discontinued
when they learn that these kernels
contain prussic or hydrocyaic acid,
and eminent physicians state that an
ounce of the kernels contain one grain
of the poison, which is enough to al
most certainly kill any adult person,
Two-thirds of a grain has very often
proved fatal. Beware of the deadly
peach kernel.
