YOUR SAFETY CUPBOARD

This is a cupboard in which should be kept commodities which are dangerous to use or liilndle. It should have a good lock, and one person should be made responsible for the key. She should be consulted when medicines or cleaning materials are required, and should see that they are returned and locked up again after use. In this cupboard should be kept poisonous medicines, lotions and tabloids; but there should be a division to separate medicines for “internal” use from those for ‘‘external.”

It is a wise precaution to tie a tiny bell to the neck of any poison receptacle.

On another shelf should be placed any dangerous liquids or materials used for household eleaning, such as weed-killers, or corrosive cleaning agents like chloride of lime, spirits of salt, or salt of leihon. Room should be made on 11. is shelf for the disinfecting powders and liquids all good housewives keep, and, as they are usually deadly poisons, these must also have their little bells.
