drunkards in lunatic asylums. 1t made lit

USED ACID FOR GARGLE
A. N. wilcox Took Great Precautions
When He Went Hunting, but For
got that He Had Put Carbolic Acid
in the Listerine Bottle.

A. N. Wilcox, with the Leslie Pa
per company, went deer-hunting in
Northern Michigan and lost his voice.
At that he counts himself in luck to
be carrying on whispered conversa-
lions on this earthly sphere instead Of
playing a golden harp elsewhere. Like
a careful sportsman, Mr.. Wilcox pro-
vided for all emergencies when pack
ing UP his kit by putting in bottle
of carbolic acid for sterilizing gum
shot wounds.
The first mistake was made when
Mr.. Wilcox put the acid in listerine
bottle without removing the old label
A few days later, after tramping thru
the woods with wet feet, a severe case
of sore throat developed, and lis
terine gargle seemed just the thing
Forgetting that the contents Of the
bottle were not indicated by the label
Mr.. Wilcox filled his mouth with the
poisonous acid and started to gargle
his throat. Altho the mistake was dis
covered at once, his throat and mouth
were terribly burned. A liberal die
of lard helped to alleviate the infam.
nation, and the only bad effect nov
apparent is a loss of the voice, which
however, is not permanent.
