Kentucky Maids.

While it has always been an acknowl-
edged fact, says the Montgomery Re
publican, that the Kentucky women are
the fairest in the Union, yet the half
has not been told of them. Their forms
are perfect models of ease and grace
and there is certain style and gesture
IN t heir walk which is not possessed by
one ut of thousand in the North.
Their features are regular and hand
some; their skin fair; light, heavy,
waving hair; dark blue eyes, and q
peachy bloom on their cheeks which
makes them almost irresistible-to =
married man. Their forms are much
better developed than are Northern
women, and though slender enough
around the waist, their muscle is sqf
ticient to curb the fiery steed upon
whose back they take their morning ex-
ercise.

The Dangers of Paris Green,

As the handling ana using of dry
Paris green, especially by persons I'M
accustomed to its use, is attended by
considerable risk, and often attended
by serious consequences, we make the
following suggestions, founded on our
experience as manufacturers All
packages, whether large or small,
should be plainly marked poison,
There is great danger in the mixing of
this green for potato-bug and cotton
worm poison, owing to the fine dust
which arises in the process, which is
enhaled and also very rapidly absorbed
by the pores of the skin, especially if
the person using it should be in a state
Of perspiration. To guard against this,
the hands and face particularly nos
trlls) should be protected as much as
possible, and should be carefully wash
ed after working in it, or in any of the
preparations of which it is an ingre-
d1ent. AS 1t penetrates and poisons
wood, gets into the seams and crevices
of articles made of metal, and even into
earthenware that Is at all porous, all
household utensils, or anything in barn
or stable which cattle or horses could
have access to, in which the article has
been mixed, or from which it has been
used, should be carefully laid aside,
and never again used for any other pur-
pose. 1t should be constantly borne in
mind that it is more dangerous and
deadly poison than arsenic, and farm
ers, planters and others, when purchas-
ing, should be duly cautioned to exer-
else the utmost care. in using it. As a
remedy for the poison, the free use OF
milk as beverageis recommended, but
we have found hydrated peroxide of
iron-a simple, harmless remedy-the
oest antidote. Sores caused by the
green should be well covered with it,
as with an ordinary salve, and a tea
spoonful III a wine-glass of water
should be taken internally, while work
ing with the green. This remedy can
be obtained from any druggist or
chemist. The consumption of Paris
green has largely increased within a
few years, and the article is now APP
piled to such Il variety of purposes that
in its use, or ignorance of
its highly dangerous properties on the
part of those who use it, cannot fail to
produce the most deplorable results. -

unload alternately on different sections
