Anyone have any arsenic handy in the kitchen cupboard?

Came across this 'handy' recipe in a 1901 Model Engineering Magazine

Here's some more concoctions from the same magazine, really enjoying going back and reading these 125 year old magazines, wish I could purchase the Model Dockyards engines that are advertised!

Dang, my bottle of Dragons Blood is nearly empty and has dried out.

Anybody know the best solvent to use to get it back to usable, or do I have to go out and slay another Dragon???
