It Is Inmentable that neiuier repeated warning nor sad experience seems to have the desired effect or making the ordinary person cautious in the use of poisons. In the last few days three children have died presumably from taking poison that was carelessly loft within their reach. One would suppose that such accidents would by this tinm have become almost impossible, yet they are constantly recurring with a frequency that demands further warning. ' If parents would learn to keep poisons in a place where they could not be reached by others there would be fewer accidents. it is the old principle of familiarity weeding contempt. ' It cannot be toa strongly impressed upon every one that, ihe only immunity from danger Is' lhrongb constnnt care and precaution. It Is ft lesson that needs to be Impressed upon every individual without tucccp- liou. DAILY LELOER mmmm,m> ��� ���JgrTlin'STi ��� _ lim I I 4 Something Special A year ago���My! how time flies!
