Perfumed Mists.

On certain parts of the coast of France,
including the channel, mists occasional
ly appear which are generally called
"perfumed mists." They come in the
morning, especially during the spring,
and strangely enough only when the
wind is in the northeast. Sometimes
they only last for a few minutes; at 9th
ers they hang about all day. They have
a characteristic smell, similar to that of
a lime kiln.
The origin of these mists is mystery.
In one district the inhabitants thought
the smell came from some lime kilns
some miles to the northeast, and they
may have been right. but that was not
an explanation of the phenomenon, be-
cause the smell from these kilns could
not have been carried by a northeast
wind to all the other places where the
mists were seen and the smell noticed.
In one of these places the northeast
wind comes from the sea; in another it
comes overland. The smell does not
therefore necessarily come from the
ground. During the past few weeks the
northeast wind has been very prevalent
and the mist frequent.
The best explanation given is that the
clustering northeast and east winds
sweep up the dust, gases and germs OF
the ground over which they pass and
drive them toward the sea. When this
wind is continued for some time, it con-
tains such quantity of these things as
to affect all our organs. That is the
cause of the complaints which appear
when the east wind blows, and it may
be the cause of those ''perfumed mists."

"Still itIMoyes.'

The advancement in the healing art
caused by the discovery of Compound Oxy-
gen and by its use, though opposed by many
physicians whose chrome, and therefore,
remunerative patients are cured by it, can
no longer be denied. In spite of these, "the
world does move" and we have on our re
cords the names of over one thousand phy-
siclans who have either taken the remedy
themselves or who have used it in their
practice.
Asthma, bronchitis, catarrh, consumption,
dyspepsia, neuralgia, nervous prostration,
rheumatism, are diseases which the doctors
call chronic, meaning that they continue a
long time, often during the life of patient.
but these, as well as acute diseases, have
been cured in numerous cases and are still
cured by the Inhalation of our Compound
Oxygen. This remedy has been in use for
nearly quarter of a century. Its merits
are known. We can furnish abundant and
irrefutable evidence to its wonderful eff
cheney in the cure of disease and debility.
and We will gladly do so. Write us and
we will send you, free of charge, our book
of two hundred pages, with a history of
Compound Oxygen, and numerous testimo-
