The Dead1ieSt POiSOns.

Most people don't realize how deadly some poisons are, said one of the leading druggists. The discoverer of prussic acid was instantly killed by inhaling one whiff of his own handiwork.
 Pure prussic acid is never sold or handled. The smell of it is always fatal. It kills, not in three minutes or half an hour, but the instant it enters the lungs as a gas. The mixture ordinary sold as prussic acid is ninety eight parts water and two parts of the drug. Even in this. form it is very deadly. A 20 per cent mixture would kill nearly as quick as if pure.
 Atropine, though it has no harmful oder, is so deadly that as much of it as would adhere to the end of a moistened forefinger would instantly cause death.
 Cyanide of potassium has a plsasant smell, which is not in furious, but small quantity swallowed kills at once.
 Pure ammonia if inhaled would cause death almost as quickly as prussic acid.
 When a carbon of nitric acid is broken someone has to suffer. It will burn wood, eat through iroh plates and destroy whatever it touches. Such an accident once happened in .an acid factory. Everyone ran away, leaving the acid to amuse itself by setting fire to things. Soon it was seen that the building would be destroyed and hundreds of people thrown out of work, and four men volun- teered to put out the fire in the acid room. They succeeded and came out feeling all right. Five hours later all were dead.
