CARBOLIC ACID ANTIDOTE.
An Englishman Has Tried Turpen-

4 remarkable discovery has appar-
entity been made by II Dublin vctcri-
nary surgeon named Allen respecting
an antiiote for carbolic acid poisoning.
says the London News.
Some time ago his attention was
IDENTITY suffering from poisoning. On
examining one he noticed that the mli-
cous surface of the mouth WAS blanch-
ed and that the animal was stagger-
ing. There was II general twitchiny of
the muscles. the eyes were staring.
and the animal was rapidly assuming
a comatose condition. Mr. Allen asked
for some oil, linsced for preference; il
not. any kind of oil that WAS handy.
Some was brought and about two
wine- lassfuls administered To one of
the animals. the effect being. To quote
the words of MIR. Allen. miraculous.
For the first time he then noticed that
the oil which had been given TO the
horse was the ordinary turpentine of
commerce. So satisfied was he with
the result that he gave the second
horse II dose. although ut that time the
animal WAS unconscious. In about ten
minutes IL recovered. and both horses

Not long after this. by n peculiar co.
incidence. Mr.. Allen was asked to look
at blacksmith who after drinking II
glass of stout had become very i'll. In
the forge the veterinary found the
smith in condition of coma. a strong
smell Of carbolic acid pervatiing the
premises. Ultimately he discovered
that the man had drunk out of the
wrong vessel and imbibod a solution
Of the acid instead of the stout. A doc
tor was at once sent for. but i'm the
meantime Mr.. Allen administered a
dose OF turpentine that happened TO he
on the premises. and the man not only
quickly recovered. but resumed his
work within an hour.
Turpentine as an antidote In similar
cases had been previously unknown.
and representative OF the Daily News
recently sought out an expert with Il
view of getting medical opinion upon
matter of so much Importance "The
symptoms in the case you mention" he
said. ARE distinctly those of carbolic
acid poisoning. and so successful does
the treatment appear to have been that
further experiments in tEe same direc-
ton are well worth trying. II subse-
quent experiment confirms the oil of
