. ACCIDENTAL POISONING
usasm o. WARRINGTON

Even small children, unable to
read, can be taught the touch not
taste not" significance of the skull
and croSSboneS picture on a contain
er whose contents are poisonous AS
a result, accidental poisoning from
bottles marked poison" is not as
common as it is from sources which
are just as dangerous though they
do not announce the menace
Poisoning is a senseless, tragic
thing because every accidental poi
soning represents a human error or
human failure Usually, we think of
poison as something whose effect is
felt almost Immediately, bur many
cases go undetected and undiagnos-
ed because the symptoms are much
like the symptoms of disease.
Poison is Cd substance which is
harmful in very small amounts or
(2)a substance which can be taken
in amounts large enough to be harm
full. In the first case any of the cy-
andes, often found in insecticides,
or nicotine can kill when taken in
only small amounts Alcohol of the
common drinking" variety is good
example of the second type 1t is
not violent poison, but over-doses
can cause death.
FREQUENT CAUSE
A frequent cause of accidental
poisoning is when we think we are
putting known substance into the
mouth Cor eyes or ears or noSe) when
in fact the contents of the bottle are
quite different from what we
thought. This mistake occurs when
one reaches into the medicine .cabi-
net pulls out a bottle of well-re-
membered brown or pink or whate-
yer, and does not consciously look at
the label
A bottle of eye drops may look al
most exactly like bottle of mercu-
rochrome, but the effect of the two
in the eye would be quite different
And when someone puts carbon te- |
trachloride, left over from cleaning,
into pop bottle and someone else |
inadvertently swigs it, two persons |
are involved, although only one suf-
fers the direct consequences
Even the wonder" drugs, pres
cribed by physician in exact guam
tity for certain conditions in a spe-
cific case, can be highly dangerous
if left where one can take self-pre-
Scribed doses later on when the
physical conditions may be quite
different, or may take them by mis-
take
PERFECT EXAMPLES
The antibiotcs furnish perfect
examples of the insidious long-ran
ge phase of poisoning by products !
which are not intended as poison
and are not labeled as such TAX
ing the remains of an unused pres
cription containing antibiotics can
sensitize person to the point that
will bring dangerous reaction if
more of the drug is administered in
emergency by physician later
Some of the antibiotics are poi
sons without any prior sensitization
Therefore, they should never be ia
ken except under a doctors super
vision. An antibiotic can be life
saver for one member of the fami-
ly but dangerous poison to the o.
theirs.
Even plain aspirin prescribed re-

frightening and incredible situa-
ton. with the horrible thought
that perhaps this young giant
might suddenly take a further
notion to climb upon their lap.
Thought you might like us to
relate the difference between
Saint Nicholas and Santa Claus,
as long as we're on this timely
subject.
Because Saint Nicholas once
threw three bags of gold into an
open window to help save three
young virgins from a sinful car
Ger, 1t became the custom of the
older members of a household to
place presents in the shoes or
stockings of their young relat-
ives.
Oddly enough, from this same
exhibition of munificience, Saint
Nicholas is often represented as
bearing three golden balls which
later became the sign of, of all
people, the pawnbroker! Hence,
Saint Nicholas is sometimes con-
Sidered the patron of pawnbrok-
erS.
In most countries, Saint Mich
olas Day and Christmas Day
have been joined. In Belgium
and Holland, however. Saint Nj
cholas Day is still the day of Joy,
instead of Christmas Day. Also,
Saint Nicholas steed is either a
gray horse or a white ass.
One day, the Dutch San Nico-
laas took off for America. Along
the way, he traded his horse for
a team of reindeer, and made
miscellaneous changes in his APP
pearance.
And ever since then. the ex-
San Nicolaas has made himself
quite at home in America, Eng
land, and even in India and Aus
tralia.
But we know him as Old Nick.

Claus.
