Still the FaYorite.

II you are contemplating a trip fol
business or pleasure it will be well to re-
member that the Burlington Route is still
the favorite. Her old established line
to Chicago hardly needs more than mere
mention for the reason that every man,
woman and child in the country is 30
familiar with the fact that over this line
runs the famous solid vestibule "ELI''
with its splendid Pullman Sleepers, chair
cars and dining cars.
Your attention is now called to our
double daily service between Kansas City.
Atchison, st. Joseph and st. Louis.
Heretofore we had but one daily train
from the Missouri river to st. Louis, that
being night train, placing passengers in
st. Louis in the morning in time for
breakfast and all eastern connections, but
on account of the increasing demand an
other train has been put on and now
leaves Kansas City, Atchison and st. Jo-
seph in the morning, placing the passen-
ger in st. Louis in the early evening of
the same day.
Omaha and Council Bluffs are put in
rapid communication with the lower Mis-
souri, river points by two superb daily
trains, one leaving Kansas City late in
the morning and the other in the evening,
making the run from Kansas City in
about eight hours. The morning train
carries through buffet sleeping car to
st. Paul and Minneapolis, placing the
in the twin cities twenty hours
after leaving Kansas City.

Deadly Ammonia Fumes.

The Lancaster (Ohio) Republican
gives the details of a terrible explo-
sion of an ammonia tank in a local
brewery. Four persons were over
come by the ammonia fumes and were
restored with great difficulty. One of
them was 3-year -old child playing
some distance away. AS soon as the
ammonia fumes struck it, it dropped
as though hit by bullet. A woman
who ran to it's assistance was also
overcome and fell senseless. The
engineer was blown distance of
twenty feet. and. although not seri-
ously injured. was prostrated so by
the poisonous fumes that he did not
recover for several days. Still an
other man. distance away, was rem
dered insensible.
The use of ammonia in various manu-
factures has greatly increased of late,
and accidents are of frequent occur
renee, owing to ignorance of it's quail
ties. There is danger not only from
such accidents as that at Lancaster,
but the effects of its daily absorption
into the system are very injurious.

In this connection Professor Blyth,
Health Officer of the Marylebone dis

who work IN guano factories where
ammonia is given off freely. There is
noticed among them a peculiar dis
coloration of the skin of the nose and
forehead. A daily absorption of am

cause the complexion to lose some

says ammonia poisoning may be Sc
