ARsENIcAL POISONING.
Its Danger In Our Homes from Curta
and Wall-PSper.

Its Danger In Our Homes from Curtains
and Wan-PAper.
The danger through arsenical poison
ing In orr homes is net confined to the
wallpapers. having been found often
present in cretonnes and imitation In
dian muslin in poisonous quantities.
A bad specimen of cretonne has yielded
on analysis nineteen and half grains
OF white arsenic, two and a half grains
having been known to be a fatal dose.
Some months back a London doctor ex-
perimented upon forty-four samples of
cretonne supplied by local tradesman,
not one of which was absolutely free
from the poison: eleven of them were
grouped by the analyst as very bad"
and nine as distinctly dangerous. It is
quite a common occurrence to have pieces
OF these substances in room contain
ing sufficient arsenic to give one hun
dred people a fatal dose. A very popu-
lar impression has been that green's
and blues are the dangerous colers,
but the analyst declares that reds,
browns and blacks are more dangerous
still. With relation to this matter the
following letter on arsenical poisoning
through green candles was contributed
to the Times in March. 1889. by Maj.
Leadbetter, chief constable of Denbig-
shire. and can not be too widely pub
lished:
"a curious case came under my no.
tice lately which / think is of public
value. A children's party and Christ
mas tree resulted in many of the little
people and many Of the older ones be-
ing seized with symptoms Of mineral
poisoning. The fact Of several who were
present who had not partaken of food
or liquid of any kind being in the
number Of those affected .directed my
attention to the colored candles on the
tree. These I had examined by the
county analyst. Mr.. Lowe. of Chester,
whose report is to the effect that the
green candles were colored with
arsenical green to the extent that every
eight candles would contain one grain
of arsenious anhydrite. He further re-
ports that the red candles were colored
with vermilion- There is ne doubt,
therefore, that we have not further to
seek for an explanation of the symp-
toms-a crowded room with the atmos-
phere charged with arsencial and mer-
curial fumes sufficiently accounting for
it. 1t is only fair to state that learn
the candles were not of English manu-
facture and were bought with the
toys. "-Chambers Journal
