One day the poor girl rushed into her mistress's presence shrieking that she Had been poisoned. Five minutes later she was dead. Appeared that her master kept a bottle of liquid nicotine in his room, used it to kill weeds. Curiosity evidently prompted deceased to taste it. Her lips and tongue were bad'y burned. And this is the deadly poison so many men absorb into their systems every time they smoke their pipes. Taken that way nicotine is slow bat. sure —and every pipeful of some tobaccos contains an appreciable quantity of the poison!
