The sale will not be as great as was at

There still remain on hand sixty thou

the original packages i'm which they

various distributing points in the
county being one hundred and forty
thousand. At cent apiece this would
amount to fourteen hundred dollars

THE USE OF ARSENIC.
How the Poison Acts When Taken as
a Complexion Beautfier.

Complexion Beautitier.
"You no doubt have observed the lily
white complexion of some women.
These women are sacrificing years OF
their lives for that beautiful skin by
the use of arsenic" said a chemist OF
Manchester, England.
at is a we'll known fact that thou
sands of women in all countries OF the
world use the poison in small quanti-
ties to bleach their skin. 1t Is an ef-
fective means of whitening and clear
ing the complexion. but the complex
ion given by its use has no perma-
nency unless the absorption of the drug
be continued.
arsenic, as science has long told US.
is an accumulative poison. When one
takes it either by prescription for the
upbuilding of an appetite or for the
bleaching of the skin he does not feel
any III effects for several years. The
effect of the drug is bracing and makes
q person feel like eating. 1t also aids
the digestion. The average user OF
the poison takes it in such small guam
titles that he does not realize now
much of it will accumulate in his sys'
fem in the course of four or five years
"Belng an accumuative poison, II
often takes that length of time to see
the results of the drug. Then the user
may complain of not being able to con
troll his fingers or toes. subsequently
no loses control of his hands and arms
Paralysis, superinduced by arsenica
poisoning, is the fearful result.-Wash
