Household Perils.

Under this head the Boston journal
of Chemistry names several dangerous
substances which find their way into
volatile liquids used in families which
are particularly dangerous, and must be
employed, if at all, with special care.
Benzine, ether, and strong ammonia
constitute this class of agents. The two
first named liquids are employed in
cleansing gloves and other wearing APP
parel, and in removing oil stains from
carpets, curtains, etc. The liquids are
highly volatile, and flash into vapor so
soon as the cork of the vial containing
them is removed. Their vapors are very
combustible, and will infame at long
distances from ignited candles or gas
flames, and consequently they should
never be used in the evening when the
house is lighted. Explosions of very
dangerous nature will occur if the vapor
of these liquids is permitted to escape
into the room in considerable quantity.
In view of the great hazard of handling
these liquids, cautious housekeepers will
not allow them to be brought into their
dwellings, and this course is commend
able.
As regards ammonia, or water of am
monia, it is a very. powerful agent, es-
peclally the stronger kinds sold by drug
gists An accident in its use has re-
Gently come under our notice, in which
young lady lost her life from taking a
few drops through mistake. Breathing
the gas under certain circumstances
causes serious harm to the lungs and
membranes of the mouth and nose. 1t
is an agent much used at the present
time for cleansing purposes, and it is
unobjectionable if proper care is used in
its employment. The walls holding it
should be kept apart from others con-
| tanning medicines, ETC., and rubber
shoppers to the walls should be used.
Oxalic acid is considerably employed
in families for cleansing brass and cop
per utensils. This substance is highly
poisonous, and must be kept and used
with great caution. In crystalline
structure it closely resembles sulphate
of manesia or Epson salts, and there
fore, frequent mistakes are made and
lives lost. Every agent which goes into
families among inexperienced persons
should be kept in a safe place, and la
belled properly and used with care.

German Carp.

German Carp is a fish new to
this country, that breeds and
grows with astounding rapidity
1t is a lazy, clumsy, non-com-
bative fish, and therefore thrives
best in an artificial shallow, slug
gish pool, with muddy bottom,
the banks fringed with aquatic
plants, as water lilies, etc. The
fish grows in two years from q
inches in length to IS, is always
in good order, and for table use
said to have no superior. They
increase exceedingly fast, a
few pairs stocking pond in a
few years. The federal govern
ment, through the National Bu-
reau of Fisheries, is sending the
fish TO this State and Col. Geo.
F. Akers, State Fish Commits
sioner, has already distributed to
different parts of Tennessee a.
bout $50 pairs, of which five
pairs are noted to S. M. Clayton,
of Cyruston; DIR. e. Y. Salmon,
of Lynchburg is to receive some.
California, Wisconsin, Michi-
igan, and other States are sup
piled with this fish and prize it
highly.

OBITUARY.
INA ELETcHER.

Daughter of Floyd and Lizzie Isom, died
November 23d, after long and severe i'll
ness.
Little IDA FLKToHER is gone. Last Tues
day evening was the appointed time for
you TO bid your darling babe farewell.
The angels were only waiting for the last
breath to pass from the lifeless from; then
quickly on their snowy pinions little IDA
tLETcHEh's spirit was carried 10 live
with Jesus. She was too pure for this
world, so God took her before sin had
stained her little soul 10 be an angel in
heaven. And now, while the cold damp
earth still holds her body, her spirit is with
God and the angels.
Cease weeping, father and mother, friends
and kindred, wipe away your tears, for
the little bud was too tender, too pure, TO
bear the winters cold," so God has only
transplanted it in another climate; and
soon, yes, very soon, He viii call you to see
your little babe. Motheryour home seems
indeed lonely without your little girl, but
remember that 'God doeth ali things fer
the best" He could trust you to care for
her only one year and q teen days. Size
was too good for even a mother to take
care of. 1t was hard to give her up, but
the link that has been formed between you
and heaven may bind you closer to God,
and be the means of your future happiness.
AS you all stood round the little sufferer,
breathing prayers for her relief,
Little Ida heard not those prayers,
Heavenly music filed her ears;
Smiles around her pale lips lowering,
Told that angels then were near.
Slowly the sweet eyes appraised,
Turned TO white robed band;
Twining wreaths of fadeless flowers,
Gathered in spirit land.
An angel bent low at evening,
Placed a wreath upon her brow,
Bore her suffering spirit homeward;
Little Ida is an angel now.
Fold her hands, and DER her pillow,
Scatter flowers all pure and white;
Kiss that marble brow, and whisper
One long, sweet, good night.
