"There, John, that's twice you've come home and forgotten that .lard." "I~a, n1other ,it vras so gr r.asy Chat it slipped my mind."

Yeeterday it ca.me to the ears of the Tri· bune that 11 little daugbter ·of a well· known resident of the West Sid· had been poisonell by wea.tiog seal· brown colored stockings. It hAa been known for so1ne time past that striped .,. aJ1d colored · stockings generally, 'Vere dyed with poisonous suLslances, and that there was Llaoger of being poisoned . by t.he1n,evcn untodeatlJ. A reporter sought the father of the child ancl obtained from hiw the (ollowiug statement : " Not long ago my wif~ bought so·me sea.l· brown stockings fur our btlle girl frurn a perfectly .reliable firm. A ~·cw d'ays after the child beglln to wear them she complained of pain iu her feet. The!~ was ulso a greeubh discoloration on the so1t's of the 1-eet which ·c ould IJOt be rernoveJ. by wasbing. As the first stockings \Vere worn only t\VO or three days, the matter exciteU no sp~cial atter:.tion, but the soles of her feet were quite discolored and considerably inftnmed. Ae eoon ?-8 ive noticed the effect we took off the stockiugs. But the Alrangeest part remains to be told, Would J'OU believe it., the week afterward there was a greenfah stain upon an undershirt of rny own just over the left breast. I noticed it but thought. it was the result of some care, leesness in \VO.sbing, nnd gave it no further attention until, jnst beneath the stairi, my cheat becnme inflamei:l and itchy, with slight pustules forming. I traced the matter up, o.n<i found thnt it all can1e fron1 the brown stockiriga which had st·-1.ined the shirt, E"en at ser.ond hand the poison wae so vio· lent aa to leave it$ t'ffcct upon myse1f. And to-day-it is some four <lays since I took off tbe undershirt, having worn it about balfa week -I still perceive the red mark corresponding to t be stained spot, and feel the itchiness and irritation of the skin." The reporter obtained t1ie stockings and took the in to an analytical chemist who now has them under examination. The chemist, on inspecting the stockings, said that they contained 11 mineral poison, aud gave tbe following interesting facts conecrning tbe use of arsenic in aniline dyes: " There ought to be some method adopt· cd by which the poisoning (If clothing couhl be preveuted. Arsenic i; generally u 6ed largely iu the brighter colors of ani1ine dyes, and lately in the darker onef.l, by un· principled n1en. They ought to he furced to know that this is n. crime, punishable. by law. There are poi&.oas in a gref\t many tl."iiags in general use, and I believe to· day no less than 81 000 persons are being slowly, but surely, poisoned to deuth in Chicago. I have given this matter e:erious attention. Certain cotmetics and face p@wders are made up largely of white lead,which is an extreme· ly <lungerons poi·on. . . . . . H Arsen1:. IS used 111 an1l1ne colors for the purpose ofoxydation. It is an outrage to use arsenic, for chloride of potash, sulpliate of copper, bichromate of pota1:1h, peroxate of . lead, and. numerous other art1cles well known in chemistry mlght he employed J'or the purpose. But ~he n1anafacturera and dyers use arsenic becuuse it is cheaper than · l · t~e ol~er drugs men honed, anl more conven1ent in many respects. 11 The greenish discoloration of the skin is cauRed by the action of the prespiration on tbe dving inatter. Anv poison introdnc· . ~ ~ . ed into the system must naturally run \\'1th the circulation of tHe Llood. In thia \Vay it is liable to cause death or · pcnnanent in· jury.
