DANGER IN PUNaENT DOORS.
Smelling Salts Injurious to the OIfactory
Nerves and a Cause of Deafness.

smelling salts Injurious to the Olfactory
Nerves and Cause OF Deafness.
Every one does not know that aro-
matte salts and very strong, pungent
odors are injurious tn the nerves of
smell and often produce serious If not
incurable difficulties. 1t is well under
stood, says n writer in the Philadel-
phia Times, that certain scents start
the action of the secretory glands of
the nose and throat, and often the eyes
fill up with tears. Frequent indul-
gencc in the use of such perfumes will
soon overtask the sccretory organs
and weaken them. Some day the per-
son observes that the hearing is less
acute than usual and the sense of
smell seems defective. This is of
course accredited to a cold or some
similar cause and but little is thought
of it. After a time the entire head be-
comes affected, hearing and smell are
almost if not entirely lacking, and
there are throat and lung complica-
tiOns which are likely to end in chronic,
If not fatal, illness. 1t has taken the
medical world a great many years to
discover that loss of hearing is almost
invariably caused by some disease of
the throat or nose, or both. But very
recent researches in these fields have
demonstrated this fact beyond ques-
ton, and it is now admitted by the
most advanced medical men that, aside
from rupture of the ear drum, there is
scarcely a symptom of defective hear
ing which is not traceable directly to
the condition of the nose and throat.
In view of the new discoveries ear spe
cialists are finding their occupations
gone, save as they make their particu-
lar branch an assistant in further in
vestigation. 1t is said that the use of
smelling salts is one of the most pro-
life causes of deafness, operating by
weakening the olfactory nerves, and
through them the auditory system,
All strorg or pungent odors should be
avoided as far as possible, especially
those which act upon the secretory
processes, and, as the popular express
sion goes, make the nose run"

THE ATTRACTIONS OF GOLF.
An English Authority Says It's a Stunning
Game for Men of Mature Years.

In one sense golf may be taken as a
protest against the CONSTITUTIONAL
that mere aimless walk which is equal
ly distasteful to the active and the in
firm. Like an unfenced hunting coun-
try, says the London Field, the golf
links offer fitting area for recreation
to those who are no longer what they
once were, and who are no longer equal
10 holding their own against the more
lightly weighted youth. The hunting
man who has erstwhile led the way
over the broad pastures of the Shires,
frequently takes refuge, in his maturer
years, in a pillow country wherein
hounds run less fast; and eventually,
perhaps, is found hunting on the
Brighton Downs, where, freed from
the overdraft on his nerves at having
to jump fences, his eye for country
may stand him in good stead. To all
of us there comes a time when we must
say with the Latin poet: 81 am not
what once was" and when that mo.
n-Jnt arrives we must look out, unless
we would fathom the depths of fogy-
dom, for such amusements as may call
for no more vigor than we can con-
yeniently put forth. In this particular
golf comes happily to the rescue. 1t
appeals TO the man of somewhat lazy
proclivities, as well as to him who is
past his prime, either by reason of the
weight of years or by having to follow
a sedentary occupation. With the ad-
yantages of genial companionship, an
inducement not to loiter by the way,
yet without the necessity to run as
though the last train were about to
start, golf holds place to which
possibly no other amusement can lay
claim; and the number of its devotees
of the class we have mentioned in its
best testimonial.

when the Duplex Typewriter Co. OF
this city exhibited the work and speed
of their duplex at the Worlds Fair
in October it was Il great surprise TO
the thousands from all parts OF the
world who saw it III operation, and it
suddenly became famous. Expert op-

now selling the Duplex" The Judge
of awards thought it was entered too
late for competition, but finally prom
ised to ''send a committee around TO
look at it" The committee went and
the Duplex carried off the highest
honors, medal and diploma, and in
giving reasons therefor the committee
stated the superior points of the ''Du-
pleX' in a nutshell, as follows:

the speed now attained by capable OPP

different letters of the alphabet at the

launch it on the market. The company
