Beware OF Food samples.

Quite recently in New York two
deaths occurred from poisoning by the
use of powders sent to the victims by
mail. In Leavenworth, Kans., the other
day nearly every doctor in town was
called to attend the children who had
gathered up. eaten. and been made i'll
by samples of an article lett at houses
by canvassers for advertising purposes.
Alum baking powders have always
been favorite articles for this sampling
business. Yet there is nothing more
liable to lead to danger than the practice
Of using the various samples of baking
powder left at the door. They are pre-
sented by irresponsible parties. in ap.
pearance are not distinguishable from
arsenic, and indeed. in Indiana some time
since one package was found, after it had
caused the death of the housewife, to
have been mixed with that poison.
1t is safer to refuse all samples Of food
or medicine offered at the door. Pure
Cream Of tartar baking powders sell upon
their merits, and are never Peddled or
sampled.
