We hope that every one of the recent examinations will be represented on the library shelves...
...their rooms papered last fall and grumbled because the authorities took such precautions against the hanging of papers containing arsenic may now feel considerable self-satisfaction as they read of the cases of poisoning in Felton and in several Cambridge dwellings. The necessity of extreme care has been strongly emphasized the past few months, and all who contemplate having their rooms newly papered may well take every precaution for their health. We are surprised that the proprietors of Felton should have neglected to submit papers, which were to be hung on walls in the building, to a most careful examination...
