who took a poison tablet by mistake

almost any one Of US is liable. In
the medicine cupboard Of nearly eV-
cry home there is poison in some
fcrm-carbolic acid, laudanum, WOOD
alcohol, or one of different antisep-
tics or disinfectants. None but the
most imprudent fail to label the pol
son bottles or boxes, but even Win
this precaution it often happens as
in the case referred to, that IN the
hight time a medicine Is sought, ano'
the label not being carefully read' a
noison resembling the medicine Is
taken instead. The safest plan Is 10
keep the poisons elsewhere, under
