Breathing CarOOnlc Acid.

1t is well known that very much
larger proportion of carbonic acid
than usually exists in the atmosphere
can be inhaled with impunity, but
only recently have we been aware of
the large quantity that can be breathed
without actual danger. Ordinary
fresh air contains but four parts in
10000, yet the carbonic acid has to
reach three per cent. or 100 times the
usual quantity before any difference is
noticed in the respiration. As the
percentage rises the person breathing
it begins to pant, but with air con.
tanning as much as ten per cent. only
a headache is produced, although the
painting is violent. The actual danger
point is not reached until the carbonic
acid rises to eighteen per cent.
Foul air in a room where a number
of persons are present is not danger
Gus on account of the carbonic acid it
contains, but owing TO a poisonous
organic substance given off with the
breath. Carbonic acid is not n direct
poison, but when the danger point is
reached the air can take none from
the blood in the lungs, so that the
fires of the human engine are extin-
guished by their own smoke, as it
were. 1t is really wonderful what the
human engine will endure, for a candle
goes out when the oxygen in the air
sinks to 1876, instead of the usual
twenty-one per cent, and the carbonio
acid rises to 2. 8. -Chambers's Journal.

Tho First Patient.

A few days ago the little son of a
well-known physician was entertain
ing playmate at his fathers house.
AS children will, they ransacked every
nook and corner of the building.
Their curiosity led them to explore
the recesses of closet in which the
doctor keeps his instruments and other
personal effects, among which is a
complete skeleton. The strange boy
was frightened when he first beheld
the grinning remnant of what once
had been a human being and started
to run away. The doctors son, how
ever, had seen the skeleton so often
that he entertained for it only that
feeling of contempt begotten by
familiarity, and in little while sue
ceeded in so allaying the fears of his
companion that the youngster began
to handle the thing and rattle its dry
bones. ''Where did your father get
it?' he finally asked. 81 don't know"
was the reply; "but guess it was his
first patient, for he's had it an awful
long time. Butte Miner.

Mixed Up the Babies.

Gilbertian humor has been exem-
plifed by an incident at Southport,
England. Last week births took place
in two families living in the same
house. In one case twins arrived and
one baby in the other. As a joke the
three babies were placed in one bed
to make the father of the twins be-
lieve that his wife had given birth to
triplets. Everything passed Off pleas
antly and satisfactorily until the
''lark" wes explained and the bust
ness of restoring the infants TO their
respective mothers began. Here a
serious difficulty presented itself, for
the attendants were unable TO say
which was which. The Identification
has not yet been satisfactorily estsas-
lished. Chicago Herald.

Misapplled Kindness.

Misapplied kindness is frequently
more unpleasant than literal cruelty.
Two women sat side by side in Il
Brookline car. They were strangers
to each other, but one noticed that
the other was having serious difficulty
arranging n jacket she wore, and
which fitted 50 tightly over her sleeves
that it would neither come on nor OF.
''Permit me, said the other, and she
pulled the jacket on one shoulder and
ierked up the collar. Still the woman
continued to struggle SO that the coat
once more slipped down, whereupon
the other hauled it into place again.
''Now, if you'll turn round, I'll pull
up the other side," she said TO the
wearer. "Thank out, returned the
coated one; ''if it's all the same to
you, I'm trying to get this jacket of, "

Real Cookery Teaching.

Butter and new-laid eggs figure
largely in cooking schools, aud as the
teacher has not to pay for them, she
wakes eloquent and insists upon such
n lavish use of both that were her les
sons generally acted upon there would
soon be a mighty famine in the land.
But the poor don't come; the rich
can do without such teachings, for
others do their work and only few
ladies in the middle classes with very
inquiring minds put inan appearance.
"Let the teacher" said poor wo-
man, "come to my house and show mo
how to cook there, and then l shall be
obliged to her." Here is the test of
good, cheap cooking-to cook with
little money a small, smoking fire a
miserable oven; couple of sauce
pans, and no scales; and sometimes
more mouths to feed than food TO put
into them. All the Year Round.

G. Rugg Thompson, the six-year-
old son OF DR.. Thompson, of Glens
Falls, is the owner of large st. Ber-
nard named Nero. The animal has a
light.brown coat and weighs about
100 pounds. Nero is an unusually
intelligent dog. He has a great head
for mathematics and can add, sub
tract, divide and multiply with sur
prising celebrity. Let a certain num-
ber of persons enter a room. Then
let half the number depart, and Nero
will notify his master by barking how
many there are left in the room.
Should others enter the room after
Nero has notified his master of the
number present, he will quickly and
accurately indicate the new number.
Some of the problems worked out by
this canine wonder would prove diff
cult for ten-year-old boy to demon
strate. An interesting example of
Nero's ability as mathematician is
shown when series of figures run
ming from one to nine is placed on q
blackboard. As each figure is set
down, either in rotation or at ran
dom, the dog will signify by bark
the number.
On one occasion Nero entered ho-
tel with the doctor. A number of
guests were standing, sitting, or NOV
ing about room. When asked how
many persons were present, Nero de-
liberately walked about until he found
four men behind counter. Then he
sagely trotted back to his master and
announced the correct number, fif-
teen. He informed his master how
many of the number were sitting and
how many standing. Troy Times.

nounced the name of Mary, my bap-
tismal name, as hurried about amid
the frantic crowd on that fearful oc-
casion. Stunned with the recognition
under such circumstances, bewildered
by the trying position in which 1 thus
suddenly found myself placed, and
fearful of the results of exposure,
knew not what to do, or scarcely what

"He did not survive the accident,
however; and, two hours afterwards,
in homely female attire, claimed his
unfortunate remains. None recog-
nized me in my plain apparel, and
surely none could suspect that the
yelled and humble woman who fol-
lowed the corpse to its last resting
place was in fact the bookkeeper of
the well-known Mr.. Corlis.

As may we'll be imagined, happy
reunion succeeded this denouement of
the longtime mystery which had
shrouded the sudden disappearance of
Mr.. Corlis's bookkeeper. And the
reader may be assured that Mr.. and

II is said that the Chinese are the
greatest gamblers in the world. Games
of chance are the very breadth of their
nostrils, and they cannot live without
them. 1t is the one pastime in n life
of unceasing toll, but the evil does not
assume serious phases SO long as
foreigners do not meddle with their
games. A Chinaman may in rare in
stances lose his all when gaming among
his countrymen, but if he does he
goes contentedly back to work next
day aud is not, like most ruined gam
blers, incapacitated for honest toll.
It is when the riffratf of other races
are allowed to take hand and to
utilize Chinese game tables and banks
for the qualification of their-own pur-
poses that despread mischief is
wrought
