1t is a rule Of the Telegram, as
as we'll as other respectable journals
and great news dispensing associa-
lions like the Associated Press, to
refraip from publishing the name Of
a po.son in connection with reports
Of suicides and it regards a violation
OF the rule as reprenensible journal
ism. 1t is Unnecessary to repeat IN
detail tin kilograms reason for this
as it is perfectly obvious what effect
such suggestion can have and daily
does nave upon the minds of melan-
choltc persons.
In an earnest desire, however, to
do what it can to offset the recent
plumbers of many newspapers In al
vertisdng a certain poison for sui
eide, or in other words promoting
SELF destruction, the rule will be here
overst epped but in a general way. a
mistaken belief prevails that pods
oning by bichloride of mercury is au
easy means Of taking ones self OIL.
The contrary, however, is the case
as the poison is deadly, insidious'
productive OF great suffering and SO
slow worrying that the agontes OIL
death are long drawn out. AS
means OF death 'btcihloride OF mer-
curry. is the worst that can be used.
Let the Journal of the American
MEDICAL Association affirm this in
more authoritative words:
some weeks ago considerable
r,uhlil.ity vas given a case of acct
dental poisoning from bichloride OF
nercury tablets. The case was 50
featured as TO lead the public to
ifer that corrosive sublimate poison
ing was not only sure but also pain
less route to the other world.
since the. accident the papers have
chronicled almost daily cases OF sui
eide in which btchloride of mercury
was the drug used. There is no
doubt that many unstable persons
who in fts of depression contem-
plate suicide are restrained from
taking the fatal step by the dread
OF the unknown agony they may
suffer in committing it.
ITO such the knowledge Of a sure
and painless method of death re-
moves the only restraining influence
left. IT is fitting, then. that the pub
Tic should be acquainted with the
fact that there are few modes OF
suicide more painful and in which
the egony is longer drawn out than
that due TO the taking OF bichloride
OF mercury. If this fact were given
.ha ma .,,rhlicitIy that u,as n ccOrdeI
the case Of accidental poisoning,
there is little doubt that the corro-
sive sublimate method of self-de-
shuction would cease to be the fla
