Not Poisoned; but Badly Scared
Thinking that a dose of acetic acid he
had taken by mistake yesterday after
noon while at dinner might be poison,
George A. COvacevich, an electrician,
who recently found it necessary to use
crutches, dropped his supports and lit
out" for q drug store. There he was
told that the acid was not poison, and
he took his correct medicine with a
greatly relieved mind. Mr.. Covacevich
has been taking medicine, and kept his
bottles mixed with a lot of acids on a
shelf. He picked up the acetic acid by
mistake, and did not notice his error I'M
til after he had taken the stuff. There
werc no effects from the dose, and an
an lido was not necessary.
