DANGER IN pUNGENT DOORS,
Smelling Salts Injurious to tho Olfactory
Nerves and 4 Cause of Deafness.
Clark Avenue and Teatd Street.

Smelling Salts Injurious to tho Olfactory
Nerves and = Cause of Deafness.
Every one does not know that arc
matte salts and very strong, pungent
odors are injurious TO the nerves of
smell and often produce serious if not
incurable difficulties. 1t is well under
stood, says writer in the Philadel-
phia Times, that certain scents start
the action of the secretory glands of
the nose and throat, and often the ewes
I'LL up with tears Frequent indul
gence in the use Of such perfumes will
soon oyertaSk the secretory 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 time the entire head be-
comes affected, hearing and smell are
almost if not entirely lacking, and
there are throat and lung complica-
lions 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
ablYcaused 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 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 strong 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"

WATER CATS.

Many SpOrtsmen of the Nile Train Puss
to Become m Expert Fisher.
Though it seems somewhat difficult
to understand how the sportsmen of
the Nile trained their cats not only to
hunt game, but to retrieve it from the
water, the hunting scenes depicted on
the walls of Thebes afford proof of the
Egyptian cats service in this re-
spect
In one of these representations, SAYS
the Boston Globe, puss is depicted in
the act of selling bird that has been
brought down by the marksman in
the boat: while in another scene the
cats are seen in the boat ready for their
work
Thus. it appears. from these ancient
illustra tions of field and other sports.
that the Egyptians were able TO train
their domestic eats to act in the same
way as our modern retriever dogs do
1t is generally supposed that nothing
will induce a cat to enter water, but
this is clearly fallacy, like many
other popular notions about the animal
world.
The tiger is an excellent swimmer. as
many have found to their cost: and so
the cat, another member of the tiger
family, can swim equally well if il has
any occasion to exert its powers, either
in quest of prey or to effect its escape
from some enemy.
As cats are exceedingly fond of fish.
they viii often drag them alive out Of
their native element whenever they get
the chance.
They have even been known 10 help
themselves -out of aquaria that have
been left uncovered. and on moon
light nights they may be seen watching
for the unwary occupants Of fish

THE LUNATIC ASYLUM.
What superintendent White Has to Say About
Its Present Condition,

Alb
DR.. f. u. White, superintendent OF
of the lunatic asylum, was seen yes
terday by STATESMAN reporter, anu
in reply to his inquiries he had the
following To say in regard to the pres.
emit condition OF the asylum;
"WiIh the exception OF rather tx
tensive needed repair" said DR..
White, "everything is in salisfac.
tory condition. L am enueavoring to
render the patients as comfortable, rs
possible in the way of feeding them
well, Keeping them warm and giving
them hind and attentive nurses.
The greatest portion OF the build
iDgs and other improvements here
have been standing from twenty TO
thirty } ears, and from some cause the
repairs fund has never been
large enough to meet the yearly
needs, consequently the entire
property OF the state here Is in u had
state of repair. The recommendation
however, which | have made, should
The Legislature see fit to accept them,
will put the institution in first class
condition. Nothing that would add
to the comfort or in any way improve
the chances of recovery of these un.
fortunate people should be neg lected
or Withheld. l believe the state owes
this to her unfortunates. Many of
them have been honorable citizens
and tax payers and now in the hour
of their misfortune Texas can Lot
afford to deprive them IF any of the
comforts anu necessities oflife.u
care you making any recommended
lions that will give any additional
room at this asylum?" was asked.
Eyes, l am recommending the erec-
ton of a building to be- used as O. gen.
eral XII, chen, associate dining room,
amusement hall and employees quart
ers. All these are badly needed and
If this Is built it will give additional
room In the wards for $50 more
patients, as the rooms now used in the
wards as dining rooms can be occu.
pied as sleeping rooms for patients.
Besides the advantages of having
one large dining room
are many. The chief advantages are
the better inspection of the food and a
great reduction in waste. am also
advocating the erection of four de-
