A tefehhone operator at her switch
board received the lighted signal indi-
eating that a receiver had been taken
off the hook. She answered the signal
and was amazed TO hear a man's voice
gasp the single word "Ambulance,"
Then came groans and the whispered
word poison" The operator immedi-
ately summoned an ambulance.
The ambulance attendants responded
and found a man seated in front of a
desk on which was an overturned bot
tie which still contained a small guam
tity of poison. The mar was badly
burned about the mouth and chin.
Prompt action saved his life. The
hospital authorities declared that had
it not been for the telephone opera
tors quick work in summoning the
ambulance they would not have reach
ed the man in time to save his life.
1t developed later that he had acct
dentally knocked yer the telephone
on his desk as he sank in his chair
after drinking the Ioison.
