Beware Poisonous Caterpillar, Dr.. Reed Cautions

The saddle back is a reddish
brown caterpillar with a bright
green white-bordered patch or its
back containing broad eilipt!cal
white-bordered brown spot in the
middle. 1t has no ordinary hairs,
but only poison spines. The poi

cause partial paralysis of the arm
and general nervous disturbances.
The remedies to use for cater

ichthyol ointment, or a mixture
