FAKE PLATING
State Drug and Food Depart.
ment Finds Fraud In
Silver Plating

Ve1million, Sept. 2.-One of the
most boldfaced frauds of the many
which are perpetrated on the u~nsuspect-
ing by the willy agent has just been
exposed by the food and drug commits
sioner at the laboratories here. A
complaint came from Bon Homme
county where the agent has been max
ing a house to house canvas selling q
so-called silver plating. 1t is sold in
bottles under the manufacturers name
and called the ''New York Self Electro
Silver Plating" Upon examination
in the laboratory here it was found to
be rather a strong solution of q salt Of
mercury in nitric acid, colored slight
ly pink. 1t is recommended on the
label of the bottle for replating spoons,
knives, forks, etc.. and it's action de-
pends upon the fact that when applied
to any silver. copper, brass or nickel
object. the meTcury of the solution is
deposited IN the article treated. A
little rubbing gives a bright surface
resembling silver, bnt in reality only
mercury, or better known as quitk
silver. which wear of ia a very
short time. Further, the application
of this quick silver coating to uten-
sils used for handling food as are
spoons. knives. etc. is actually dan
gerous, as more OF less of the mercury
is swallowed with the food. This
might result seriously in case a house
wife had treated all her silverware
with the mercury. The solution con-
tanned not more than the mertst trace
of silver. but the nitric acid in it dis
solves some of the silver which the
article was originally plated with and
so il works q double harm.
