Arsenic, so deadly in acute poisoning,
is also greatly dangerous to those who
use it in their daily work. Much cheap
wall paper is colored with arsenic.
Chronic poisoning by it in it's earlier
stages is particularly disagreeable. The
eyes, nose and throat are indamed 30
that the patient continually complains
of having a cold in his head. A cold in
the head was not one of the ten plagnes
inflicted upon the Egyptians-probably
because they had done nothing to de-
serve such terrible infiction.
AS arsenical poisoning progresses the
person suffering with it is salivated. He
shows nervous symptoms; his limbs may
be numb, or, ON the other hand, painfully
awake to the slightest sensation. He
faints, he has convulsions, he dies Of ex-

Young bachelor who lives northwest
OF he,e, says the Capdo, N. D, Record,
had a rather rough experience the other
day. He was coming to town and had to
cross the big coulee. Not thinking the
water SO deep he drove his mule team in,
thinking he could easily ford the coulee,
but he had not gone far before the mules
commenced to swim and the wagon box
was lifted # the wheels. He was CON-
PEELED 10 let the mules go, and he succeeded
in getting ashore; but the mules and box
were On the other side, 80 he concluded to
swim across. For convenience sake he
took otf his clothes and swan to the place
where Fhe box was lodged. BY climbing
up into the box it tore loose from the bank
and was rapidly carried down the stI cam,
with the bachelor in it, not'stopping until
it reached clump of willows. About
this time young school marin, who had
been out for walk, came across the bach
ellor's clothes, and thir king the bachelor
was surely drowned, she gathered up the
clothes and ran home to give the alarm.
1t was not long before the coulee bank was
lined with men, women and children, all
anylously seeking the missing bachelor,
who was at last discovered hiding in the
willow brush, and who begged them togo
home and get his clothes.

There are some constitutions that can =

perfume readily recognized in India ink
or the India shawls, is to some persons
almost rank poison. Ladies have been
known to faint after wearing India shawls
or painting with India ink, and a sachet
which has patchouli as the fla oring es-
sence is to many persons extremely I'M
healthy. Whether the perfume causes
nervous complications or excites nausea
cannot be ascertained, but it is certain
that some constitutions will not bear it.

or strength, or having headaches that have
no explained cause, might look for the
reas on in some perfume that she is in the
habis Of using. On some persons the
musk has a similar effect, others are sick

oils derived from flowers, while more
rarely the odor of apples or other fruit
has an unfavorable effect on persons OF
peculiar temperament. As rule what
ever perfume is unpleasant to the individ-

STRANGE CASE OF CATALEPSY.
Malinda Dunlap, Asleep and Cannot Be
Awakened.

Awakened.
Asleep, and cannot be awakened
Such is the condition of Malinda Dun
lap, domestic in the employ of Tom Dell,
the baker, of Loukland. The affair is
creating quite sensation Ia the suburbs
and the slumbering being is the marvel Of
all who have called at her chamber, says
the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
Linda, as she is familiarly known about
Lockwood, is On unmarried woman, Of
about IS, whose home is at Goshen, O.
she came to Lackland from Indiana
last fall with the family of Moses Collins,
employed with the extra gang Of the Big
Four road, and remained with them until
about two months ano, when she entered
the Dell household. She went to bed as
usual at 10 o'clock Monday night, and at
FIVE yesterday morning was called by Mr.
Dell. He waited some time and, not hear
ing response, went to her room. There
she lay like a corpse. He rushed down
stairs, calling to those he saw that she
was dead.
DR.. g. W. Davis was summoned and
found the woman ID a spell Of hystero-
catalepsy. d condition when the nervous
system, both sensory and motor, is SEEM
ingly paralyzed, He dashed ice water in
her face without the stir Of muscle being
seen, and then applied ammonia to the
nose, the inhalation Of which generally
causes the most violent bronchial irrita-
ton. Through it all she slept as peace
fully as child after the romps OF long
summer day. He next used nitrate amyl
with as soothing effect as the ammonia
had produced. As a last resort he gave
her a dropof trinitrip, with no other eff
feet than an acceleration of the pulse. Her
respiration and pulse were normal, and
when her eyelids are opered the eyebails
roll as though she we're looking at differ
ept objects. Her avs are set as close as
in dean, and all the force applied by the
physician to open them, so that food
might De administered, proved useless.
The most mysterious feature of the
strange case is that when any part OF her
body Is placed In certain position 1t re-
mains so for several minutes, and even
when she is maze to sit UP IN bed at an
angle OF forty FIVE degrees sac will retain
that position fer a number of minutes,
gradually sinking to the pillow.
Gases of hystero- cata.epsy are OF rare &C.
currence. and the most skilled physicians
fail to give cause for it, each one claim
ing its origin to arise in different dis
orders, among which some give a heredi.
tary pre-dlsposition toward it, functional
and organic arrangements of the nervous
.ystem, as well as many trihing disorders,
which frequently precede an attack.
