Professor Brouardel relates the two
following histories of accidents that
happened on the same day to cabman
and medical practitioner. The former
fell asleep in his heated cab after hav-
ing carefully closed the windows. Half
an hour later he was taken out dead,
and post norton examinations at the
morgue revealed carbonic oxide poison
ing as the cause of the catastrophe. On
the other hand, the practitioner had re-
entered his heated and closed carriage
after an absence of an hour at consul
tation.
After drive of five minutes he was
seized with giddiness, nausea and de-
gree of muscular loss Of power that rem
dered the throwing open of the carriage
windows a matter of extreme difficulty.
He suffered from the effects of this car
bonicacid poisoning for 0 further days.
In the course of the discussion that en-
sued M. Moissan stated that this danger
was not limited to the briguettes OF
public vehicles, but extended to nearly
all the household heating apparatus.
The joints of these apparatuses were
mostly composed of glazed earthenware,
which under the influence of the heat,
soon cracked and allowed the carbonic
oxide gas to escape. He said that non
fatal accidents were very common, and
he knew many people who complained
every winter of malaise, which disap-
peared in summer with the exit of the
determining cause.-the deadly bril-
uuette of the comfortable % Paris heated
cab.-London Lancet.

A HOTEL ROMANCE.
How a Newly Married Couple Were Made
Happy by an Old Bachelor.

How a Newly Married Couple Were Made
Happy by an Old Bachelor.
There is many sweet romance cher
ished by the visitor to New York that
is never dreamed of by the prosaic, ev-
eryday people of business. Much Of this
romance is necessarily connected with
the hotels In these old hotels every
room is interviewer with the history OF
hundreds Of persons, and every time one
of these persons is in the city the inter
est is revived in the past. One day
friend led me down Broadway on some
pretext or another, and we finally paused
before the old New York hotel
81 stopped there on my wedding
trip he finally blurted out my wife
wished it. Her mother had stopped there
in her time and on her wedding trip.
My wife was anxious to occupy the
same room that her mother had We
had been married that day, and this was
our first hotel, just as it had been in
her mothers case, and my little ones
mind was surcharged with the romance
of the thing. But, like all young mar
ried folks, we had horror of being con-
spicuous and at the first didn't like to
say anything about it to the clerks. At
last, however, l mustered courage
enough to look over the register just to
ascertain whether the room-we knew
the number, floor and everything, as my
bride had figured it all up in her own
mind-was really occupied. We thought
we might get into it on some excuse or
another Imerely desired to crafty her.
But couldn't find the number at all
You can't fool hotel clerk very easily
ON such things, and in little time he
had the whole thing out of me.
'Confoundedly sorry, sir, said he,
but that particular room is occupied by
a regular boarder and one of the cross
est old bachelors / ever knew too.
THAT settled it So l went up stairs
and told my wife about it. There was
no help for it Our room was good
enough, but she thought it would be SO
nice if we could have the same one her
mother and fathershad There was no
time to think much about it, for few
friends came in to see us, and we were
dragged off to box party that evening
When we came in, however, the room
clerk called me into the private Office
and handed me key to the cherished
room.
Z" L happened to mention the matter
to Mr.. - said he, not with any
idea of his giving it up, Of course, but as
a curious circumstance, when, to my
surprise, he told me to tender the use of
his room to you at once He was going
away tonight anyhow, he said, for
week and you could have the room for
a week, and longer if you wanted it So
there you are. No, he's gone You're
to take possession just as it is.
"Well, when l told my wife, she was
SO excited and pleased that she cried a
little, and when we found ourselves the
occupants of beautifully fitted up and
decorated room-a room that looked as
if somebody Of taste and culture lived
in it, the room she wanted because in it
years ago her mother staid a young
bride, as she was-well, old man, you
couldn't blame me much for participant
ing somewhat in the romance. New

PoultryIn the Garden.

A subscriber wishes to know if it is
good farming and profitable to allow
chickens, geese and ducks to run in
among small fruits, or will the poultry
destroy the fruits?
Geese ought to be kept out of all pas
ture ground or garden, because their
droppings seem TO poison vegetation,
even grasses. Other stock will not feed
after them. They need small pasture
by themselves.
Ducks are pretty good gardeners.
They are scavengers and insect destroy
ers and frequently are let into the gar
den because of these traits, but they
ought to be watched. Let them in for
an hour at time while you yourself
are busy in the garden.
/ have known chickens III gardens
seemingly harmless, but / think that
during the ripening of small fruits all
kinds of poultry had better be excluded.
That is the safest way. They are hard
on peas and beans just coming up.-C.

The Passing of Italics.

After an existence of much utility Of
about 400 years it is noticed that italic
is declining measurably in the favor of
printers, particularly on newspaper
work. 1t is occasionally seen, however,
in important editorials This lack of IA
vor has, it would seem, become more
marked since typesetting machines have
come so largely into use on the daily
newspapers.
The increased output from the ma
chimes has strong tendency to do away
with the use of italic, every effort being
directed to the simplifcation of their
product Thus it has been considered
good enough to put the names of news
papers and other titles in roman ON
newspapers, the composition for which
plant has been uttered, and If there has
been any comment it has been too weak
to make itself heard The public does
not care anything about the matter. All
that is wanted is readable paper. When
machines are turning out thousands of
ems per hour in the usual rush to get a
paper to press, there is no time to be
frittered away in going 30 an italic case
situated perhaps at the other end of the
composing room. The face stands as
much chance of being used as there is
of reverting to the custom of correcting
in the form. -Boolumaker

HAIR OvelNe AN ANCIENT ART.
From Cleopatra Down Women Have Ito
anrfed To the nanRernna Pracfloa.

From Cleopatra Down Women Have Ito
sorted to the Dangerous Practice.
The art Of dyeing the hair is at least
as old as the time of Christ 1t was by
resorting to such aids to beauty that Gle
opatra tried to capture Caesar. All
through history ladies of fashion have
tried to improve upon nature by artif-
cially coloring that which st. Paul tells
us is their glory.
In the heyday of Venice the facile
beauties of the city of the lagoons dyed
their hair red, to which Titan was not
ashamed to affix his name.
The belle of bellies in that day had red
hair-pot bright red, but dull red
with glints of crimson. More recently
almost in our own time-a rage arose for
bright blond hair, as to which there was
a tradition that it had been popular with
the Greek hetairae.
Blond heads blocked the thorough
fares, and young ladies of good repute
did not disdain to employ the dyer until
his services were monopolized by another
class. In our day the popular color is
bright shade of auburn-the blond cen

through martyrdom to impart that tint
to their locks. For the popularity of
blond hair the argonaut finds this ex-
cuse. that 1t is rarer than black or brown
hair and finer. Everybody knows that
the legend of the golden fleece was sug
gested by the ardor with which Jason
and other Greek connoisseurs pursued
the blond haired maidens of Colchis.
Almost all hair dyes consist of sulphur
and acetate of lead, both of which are
injurious to so delicate plant as human
hair. A steady course of either win inn
pair the vitality of the hair papilla and
may destroy the medulla altogether.
Women who bleach their hair use per
oxide of hydrogen, which after time
imparts an unnatural and wiglike luster
to the hair. A more dangerous dye still
has for its basis nitrate of silver.
When this is used, the hair is first
washed with sulphuret of potassium.
The nitrate is applied while it is still
wet. In all these cases the drug is adul-
terated with a pigment of the desired
color, and the effect for the time is to
substitute that color for the natural hue
of the cortical substance or hair bark.
II need hardly be said that the effect OF
a continued use of such indictments is
to enfeeble and ultimately to rot the root
sheaths. Badness then ensues, and for
that science has discovered no remedy

A cITY's BUSINESS PULSE.
How It's Rise and Fall Are Recorded In the
Telephone Exchanges.

How It's Rise and Fall Are Recorded In the
Telephone Exchanges.
Where is the pulse of the city's bust
ness to be felt and watched? On the
streets. in the Stock Exchange, the
board of trade, the hotels, the street cars
or on the docks? Not at all. Where
thena Why, in the telephone exchanges.
There you will see the pulse of city
life beating more or less feverishly all
through the "a hours of the day.
If you are interested in the subject
and get the right side of the general
manager, he will show you the " line of
life of the city for single day laid
out ON beautiful chart. 1t looks like
the profile of mountain range cut clean
through the middle. The line shows
the number OF telephone communica-
tons for each hour of the "a in the
same manner that the daily variations
of thermometer and barometer are

ascend, at the ascent grows sharper
and by 8 the slope is steep, at 0 it is
precipitous, and between ii and 10 it
reaches the summit of lofty peak.
The general manager tells you what
the line means. In the middle of the

there is little telephone talking. Still

breaks, the market opens fire, and the
traffic creeps upward. A little later the
early birds of business begin to pipe
up, and the traffic steadily grows. Then
the rush down town begins in earnest,
in short time every business Office is
in full swing, the pulse of the city beats
at fever heat, and Thousand telephone
bells are tinkling every minute.
The line jumps mp the slope by leaps
and bounds, the operators rush in and
pull out plugs, turn down levers and
press buttons as if their very life depend
ed on doing 10 separate things in five
seconds, and each one could find work for
three pairs of hands and an equal num-
Der of mouths and ears.
Then, at about noon, the top notch of
high pressure is reached, and the line
drops down the other side of the peak.
Men go out to luncheon, and for a cou-
pie of hours there is q valley in the
