Dangerous Odor*.
Some smells are dangerous. A sin
gle sniff of highly concentrated prus
sic acid will kill a man as quickly as
a shot through the heart. The odor
of a bad egg Is due to the presence of
sulphureted hydrogen, and the ob
jectionable perfumes of sewers and
bone factories are attributable chiefly
to the same gas. Chemical laliorato
rles are famous for bad smells. Ilor
zelius, who discovered the element
called "selenium," once tried the ex
periment of permitting n bubble of
pure hydrogen selenide gas to entci
liis nostril. For days afterward he
was not able to smell strong ammonia,
the olfactory nerves being temporarily
paralyzed. Selenium gas has the odor
of putrid horseradish. Tellurium Is
even worse. There is a story of a phy
sician whose patient, a lady, refused
to take an absolutely necessary rest
because she was so fond of being al
ways in society. He gave her a pill
containing a small quantity of tellu
rium, and her breath was affected by
it to such an extent that she was not
able to appear in public for a month
She never guessed what the trouble
was. The volatilized essential oil o'
roses is supposed to cause "rose
cold." This peculiar complaint is sc
far nervous in its character that pa
per roses sometimes excite it.
Why Elephants Fear Mice.
It seems incredible that so small and
harmless an animal as a mouse is able
to frighten an elephant almost out of
his senses. One little mouse in the
hay on which they are feeding will
stampede an entire herd. In their na
tive laud there are little animals,
known as chacanas, which feed on a
small, sour berry ot' which elephants
are very fond. They live In settle
ments, something after the manner of
prairie dogs, under the berry bushes.
When feeding, the elephants trample
the little towns, and the chacanas, in
their fright, run up the tubes of the
elephants' trunks. Their long, sharp
claws catch In the flesh, and they can
not be ejected. The more violently the
monster blows through its coiled trunk
the more firmly the hooked claws of
the little animal become Imbedded In
the fleSh. Inflammation and death are
the result. In captivity the elephants
think they are In danger of the deadly
chacanas when they see a mouse.
Early Baseball Teams.
Baseball teams existed as early as
1845, but the first league was formed
in 1857, when the National Association
of Baseball Players was organized.
This, as the title Implies, was an or
ganization of players—in fact, of ama
teur players. They did not remain true
amateurs for long, however, and in
1871 baseball was placed squarely on
a professional basis, when there came
Into existence the National Association
of Professional Baseball Players. It
will bo noted that the players still
governed the sport, and they continued
to do so until 1870. It was in this
period that there grew up the great
abuses which menaced the very life of
baseball—namely, gambling and the
buying and selling of games. In 1870
the players were deposed from the
government of professional baseball,
and they have never since controlled
the game.—Henry Beach Needham in
Success Magazine.
Almost Prehistoric.
ner voice in the midsummer gloam
ing had a plaintive sound.
"I haven't anything new to sing to
you tonight, Cyril," she faltered.
"Then sing me one of the old songs,
love," said the man tenderly.
High, thin and a little cracked, her
soprano rose in quaint, sweet melody
of "Over the Garden Wall." When
the song was ended her lover laughed
and said:
"That was indeed an old one, Clara."
Two hard lines formed about the cor
ners of her mouth.
"Yes, Cyril," she said quietly; "I
sang that song to you the night we be
came engaged."—New Orleans Times-
Democrat.
They Let It Go at That.
They were holding down the parlor
sofa together.
"Women," he remarked to the dear
girl by his side, "are not good listen
ers."
The dear girl said nothing.
And the dear girl's mother, Avho was
doing an eavesdropping stunt at the
keyhole, was not in a position to con
tradict him.—Chicago News.
It Takes Cash.
"Why are there no lynchlngs in this
city?" said a New York policeman.
•Because the officers always get there
ahead of a rope. There are several
patrolmen on each block, and it takes
some time to hunt up a hardware store
and get a rope. The man who goes aft
er it usually loses his enthusiasm when
he finds that even a clothesline means
cash on delivery."
