Montreal Ohlld Ito Pal-snipe and bled. (Midland Free Press.) I ' A sad case of ggiisoning took * place across the ay on Tues- ' day of last week. Mr. and Mrs. Percy Smewing had just moved into a house, and were busiljy * engaged getting things settle . Three children were out in the garden playing about. At four o'clock in the afternoon one ohild took terribly sick with vomiting `and a physician was called, who `pronounced it poisoning. The Iother two children also took sick, ,apparently from the same cause, but as there was no poison lahout, the,pnrents were at a loss ,to know what the children had |b('l?I1 eating. On investigating, a ,pai-snip was found in the garden {partly eaten. It is su posed that ltlie children had pul ed up this lvegetahle. which it is claimed is fpoisonous, if after remaining in `the ground all winter commences to grow. and is then eaten. Arth- lur, the little son of five years, `had eaten so much of the ois- IOTIUUS root that all eifor s to !save his life were unavailing, `and he passed away at eight o`- lelock the same evening. The physician had a strenuous fight {to save. the other two children. but persevei'ance prevailed and Ithey are now out of danger. I l l ' Minna : Llnlmont Om-on Dan-1 dru.
