We were sorry to hear of the accident
al poisoning of Mr.. Ell. B. Austin's little
boy last week. 1t appears he was suf-
fering from cough, and his mother on
administering him dose of medicine
left the room for few moments On
her return she found he had climbed
on to chair, taken the mixture from
the bureau and drank all. Every effort
was made to save the child's life, but
without avail. and in two hours he was
a corpse. The parents have our sym>
patty.
