A WHOLE FAMILY NEARLY DESTROYED
Mr.. Stephenson, wife and two children were
nearly killed by charcoal fumes, last Satur-
day, at their house beyond the old brick
yard, mile and half east Of town A
large pot or furnace ofcharcoal was burning
in the room which was tightly closed, the
weather being very cold. Mrs. Stephenson,
who was ironing, complained that she felt
faint, and Immediately thereafter fell upon
the floor insensble. Her husband suspected
what was the matter, but before he could
do anything for her relief he also fell to the
floor, and the children likewise. All lay for
some time insensible, how long they know
not. There must have been Slight current
of air close to the floor, coming either thro'
cracks or through the doorway, else the
family never would have revived as they did
to tell their own story. Even after being
restored 10 sensibility they were weak and
unwell for long time, and blood gushed
from the nostris of one of the children. 1t
is astonishing that people forget the poison
Gus nature of charcoal fumes, and incur
such risk of life
