Poison Gas Born by Accident.

Some years ago a disastrous fire
followed chemical explosion at
Greisheim, near Frankfort-on-the-
Main, in Germany.
Fire engines came rushing up,
but as they approached the men
We're seen to fall from their seats.
Spectators running after them drop
ped as If shot, and meanwhile the
blaze increased, involving fresh
buildings, and even crossing the
river into the village Of Schwan-
helm.
What had happened was this:
The sudden mixture of vats of
different chemicals under intense
heat had filed the air with gas Of
so terribly poisonous nature that
those who came within its deadly In
fluence were suffocated at once. Fifty
one dead, and three times that num-
Der injured, was the result of that
terrible fire. This accident led to the
use of poison gas in warfare.

REAL USE FOR "BEST MAN.

the Wedding, ~ ,i4ssT,s,

An outcome Of the primitive proceed
ure Of seizing another mans bride ct
the altar was the comparatively recent
custom in Sweden that marriage take
place only after dark. The early Scan
dinavian idea was that it was not dig
nified for a warrior to WOO a woman.
Therefore he waited until she. had
been successfully courted by another.
and then, when the marriage was
about to take place, he appeared with
his companions to carry of the bride.
Knowing the danger. q. prospective
bridegroom took measures to, prevent
his prize from being snatched away
from him at the eleventh hour. Behind
the altar Of an ancient church at
Husanby, Gothland, is an old collection
Of long lances, with sockets for torches.
which illustrates the methods Of de-
Tense resortedt to-. These were sup
Piled to the groomsmen. to furnish pro-
lection as well as illumination for the
ceremony. .~t. - 81, -,
All these groomsmen were called
'best men" because they were the most
powerful Of the bridegroom's friends.
But there was one special ''best man"
to protect his friends bride, as he
would help him steal sanother's. And
It is in this capacity, Of protection
rather than as accessory before the
fact that the best man has come down
through time and stands up, at your
wedding today. ~. >.$Et.i3, .ETt.f& *ssS 4saSs
