"Alpha dinitrophenol," DR.. Riley
said, "is a chemical compound that
has been used for some time in the
manufacture of explosives. More re-
Gently it has been used as a medi-
cine to speed up the cellular activity
of the human body. In this con-
nection it has been widely advertised
as reducing agent.
at is an extremely and treacherous
compound and should be avoided I'M
less it is prescribed by physician
who is thoroughly familiar with the
constitution and characteristics of the
individual to whom it is given. Num-
erous workers in munition plants are
reported to have suffered i'll effects
from exposure to it in connection
with their work and articles published
during the last year in the Journal
of the American Medical Association
have shown how serious it's effects
may be when used as medicine.
"Some people are particularly SEN
sitive to certain drugs and that is
true of alpha dinitrophenol, as of
other drugs. 1t has been shown to
be especially dangerous to persons
suffering from heart disease, diseases
of the liver or kidneys, chronic rheu-
matism, tuberculosis and alcoholism,
as well as to persons suffering in
other ways.
"The danger from the administra-
ton of alpha dinitrophenol and re-
lated compounds is so great that the
Federal Food and Drug Administra-
ton has warned the public against
their use. State Depts. of Health
are beginning to take up the matter,
also. In Louisiana, for instance, the
same restrictions are applied to the
use of this chemical as to poisons
generally, and it's sale, as medicine,
is not permitted except upon the writ
ten prescription of physician.
"The advice of the Maryland State
Department of Health in regard to
all of these anti-fat remedies Isl
Don't touch them. Your doctor
knows your constitution-your weak
and your strong points. Go to him.
If you need to reduce, he will tell
you what to do and how to do it,"

ACCOMACK CITIZEN FALLS
TO DEATH FROM CAR

While riding in an automobile near
Machipongo Sunday evening, August
IL, Mr.. Willie F. Maddox, accidental
ly fell from the vehicle striking his
head on the concrete road and frac-
turing the base of his skull, an in
jury which proved fatal. He was i'm
mediately removed to the hospital
where he died about two hours later.
Mr. and Mrs. F. A. Maddox and
their son were enroute to their home
at the time of the accident and the
young man was riding in the back seat
of the machine. Just how he fell out
is not known as the parents did not
see him, but the door of the car was
open and it is thought that he may
have had his hand on the door catch
and that the door flew open throwing
him out. He fell on his head and was
killed almost instantly. He was I'M
conscious when picked up and was
rushed to the Memorial Hospital.

contents from the stomach and other
treatment. The odor about the child
was of alcohol. The child responded
to the treatment and the parents re-
turned home. About p. m. the doc
tor received call saying the child
was worse, and ordered her removed
to the hospital. A urinic condition
disclosed alum poisoning which had
locked the kidneys, and which caused
death.
The father testified that he was
going to work when a brother of his,
called him saying that the children
acted sick, and showed him an empty
whisky bottle. The children were fed
sweet cream, but Anna grew worse;
the two-year-old brother not showing
any i'll effects. Mrs. Kump testifying
reiterated with her husband, that they
did not know the contents of the bot
tie nor where it came from.
The jury deliberated about 25 min
utes and brounght in the verdict that
the child died August II, in the Han
over General Hospital by reason of
drinking some poisonous liquid un-
known to the jurors and they found
no criminal liability.

DEADLINE FOR PAR
TIAL PAYMENTS OF
DELINQUENT TAXES

The time for taking advant-
age of the partial payment law
on delinquent taxes is rapi dly
drawing to a close. County
Treasurer A. l.. Bartlett states
that no new accounts can be ac-
cepted under this plan after
May 9TH, 1884, the date when
the second payment is required
under the law to be paid. The
first payment date was Nov. 5,
1888.
The law states that taxes
which were delinquent on June
lst, 1888, may be paid in &c
semi-annual installments within
a period of ten years provided
that the taxpayer shall not be
delinquent in the payment OF
any current tax. Therefore the
provisions of the act become
available only to those who
have paid the first half Of the
1893 tax on the property involv-
ed.
As there is a very material
saving in interest charges to all
who elect TO pay their old ac-
counts in this manner the Trea-
surer's Office is making a spec
ial effort To assist all who ap-
ply for It's benefits.
