The Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, June 18,1902. BLOOMS THAT POISON ODORS OF FLOWERS THAT ARE HARMFUL TO HEALTH. Beware of the Poppy, as It Contain* Opium and Induces Drowsiness. ; Tulips That Are Dangerous and Produce Light Keadedncss. The majority of people think that the tulip has 110 smell, and this is true of a great number of the fashionable variegated kinds. The old self colored sorts, however, particularly those of a deep crimson hue, have a powerful odor, which is dangerous when inhaled. This odor is of saffron flavor and affects many people in a very peculiar manner. If breathed deeply, it has the effect of producing light beadedness, which continues for some time, causing the sufferer to do and say all manner of remarkable and ridiculous things. Its influence often lasts for an hour or two and is followed by deep depression. Another common flower whose odor has evil properties is the poppy. This is doubtless due to the quantity of opium which the blossom contains. Numbers of individuals, especially young ladies of highly strung temperament, complain of the drowsy sensation which comes after walking through a field of these flowers and afterward of violent headaches and a disinclination to move about In Asia Minor, where the poppy is grown in vast quantities for the purpose of extracting the drug, tourists are frequently incapacitated for many hours after inspecting a poppy plantation, and two cases of death among English tourists were traced to the same cause last year. All flowers grown from bulbs are dangerous in rooms where there is illness. Although bunches of flowers are invariably taken as presents to patients, such blooms as hyacinths, lilies of the valley, tuberoses and even daffodils and narcissuses should be carefully avoided. The perfume is as dangerous to a person 211 a critical state of health as dose of morphia would be, .without possessing the benefits which that drug sometimes confers. Perhaps the most remarkable effect which any garden flower has 011 the human body is that which follows the handling of the particular variety of - \ primula known as obconica. Experienced gardeners are always careful to wear gloves when potting this plant as, should there be ever such a slight scratch or prick on the hands or fingers, evil results are almost certain to follow. The first noticeable result is a slight itching of the hands and arms, and this precedes the breaking out of a skin disease which frequently extends to the body. It dies away in the autumn when the leaves fall, and by Christmas the sufferer is free, but the primula has by no means finished its deadly work. When spring comes again and the sap rises in plants and trees, the dread disease makes its reappearance and continues all through the summer. This continues for many years, frequently for the whole of the victim's lifetime, and there is no known remedy for it, although years of the most rigid dieting have in some case6 produced a diminution in its violence. It blood poisoning by the primula obconic does not take this form, it brings aoout the still more dreadful erysipelas. Cases of poisoning through eating the berries of the belladonna, or deadly nightshade, are all too frequent, but there is the gravest danger in even handling this attractive plant. It is a very common practice in the country among parties of young people to pick the berries and flick them at each other with the fingers for sport. Then, when heated by the fun and fusillade, the face is sometimes mopped with a handkerchief upon which fingers sticky with the juice of the berries have been wiped. . Should but just a little of this get into one of the eyes a fearful calamity may ensue. Iritis, or paralysis of the iris of the eye, which invariably results in blindness, has been known to come on. and against this dread disease medical skill has as yet proved unavailing. This, too, is in face of the paradoxical fact that treatment with tincture of belladonna is the one usually adopted in the elementary stages of iritis. The dainty heroine who is so often to be heard of as idly plucking to pieces the petals of a flower must beware which blossoms she chooses for the purpose. Lilies, begonias, rhododendrons and peonies are likely to set up festers, with consequent loss of linger nails, if treated in this way.? London Answers. I take great pleasure in giving the very highest testimonial to Dr. Baker's Blood and Liver Cure. I used it in 1895 Inflammatory Rheumatism. I was severely afflicted with the disease and tried my family physician, in addition to various remedies, without effect. I procured some of the above medicine, and be' Ail. -r -A t n u_ lore using a oouie 01 11 jl couiu wai* without my crutches, and by the time I had used a bottle and a half, I felt entirely well, and have not suffered any since.

B SCARES PEOPLE 1 1 chitis, bleeding" of the lungs, emaciation and weakness, have been perfectly and permanently cured by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Med- j ical Discovery. It cures the cough, j heals the lungs, and builds up the body j with solid flesh. "When I commenced taking your medicines, , eighteen months ago, my health was completely j broken down." writes Mrs. Cora L. Sunderland, of Chaneyville, Calvert Co., Md. "At times I j could not even walk across the room without | pains in my chest. The dcctor who attended me said I had tung trouble, and thai I would never be well again, a* lrst I concluded to try Doctor j Pierce's medicines. I bought a bottle of ' Gold- , en Medical Discovery,' took it. and soon com- | meaced to feel a little better, then you directed i me to take both the ' Golden Medical Discov- ! erv' and the 'Favorite Prescription.' which I ; did. Altogether I have taken eighteen bottles j of ' Golden Medical Discovery,' twelve of the ! 'Favorite Prescription.' and five vials of 'Pel- ' lets.' I am now almost entirely weli. and do all j my work without any pain whatever, and can i run with more ease than I could formerly walk." ; Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser, in paper covers, is sent free on ! receipt of 21 one-cent stamps to cover | expense of r -iling only. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. ^ . How He Proposed. He "wished to propose to the girl of bis choice, but he was nervous. First he thought of the old romantic style: f "By my halidom, fair one. 1 would j fain take thee for my bride. Say thou j wilt be mine, and ere the sun gilds the I turrets of yonder castle the friar shall unite us in holy bonds." In the face of the prevalent rage'for j dramas of the olden style, this form I seemed satisfactory. Being an eminent- i ly modern young man, however, h? thought again and determined to test i the theatrical mode. But just at that moment the fair Mary tripped into the room, and he j blurted out: "Er?Mary?er?will you?er?well"? j But Mary was far from being contrary. "Oh, that's all right, George," ; .said she, "I know what you mean, i Why. of course, I will. Papa will be 1 delighted."?New York Herald. I I Suck In sr Poisonous Wounds. Among all people the sucking of the wouud has ever been considered the ; most effective remedy of immediate application for snake bites. In Africa a j cupping instrument is employed in j emergenc ..-s of the kind to draw out j the poisoned blood. The ancients fol- ! lowed the same methods, and when Ca- ' to made his famous expedition through j the serpent infested African deserts lia employed many savage snake charmers, called psylli, to follow the army, j They performed many mysterious rites j over men who were bitten, but the efficacy of their treatment appears to hav? i consisted in sucking the wounds. A Real Friend. "I suffered from dyspepsia and in- ; digestion for fifteen years," says W. | T. Slurdevant of Merry Oaks, N. C. j "After I bad tried many doctors and medicines, to no avail one of my j friend spersnaded me to try Kodol. j It gave me immediate relief, I can eat i almost anything I want dow and my | digestion is good. I cheerfully re- j commend Kodol/1 Don't try to cure stomach trouble by dieting. That only further weakens the system, i You need wholesome, strengthening food. Kodol enables you to assimi- ; late what you eat by digestion it j without the stomachs aid. J-E.Kauf- j mann. ^ j Russia's Many Holidays. In addition to the fifty-two Sunday* Russia has about thirty-nine holidays j or feast days of the church. They are kept as rigidly almost as a London ! Sunday.

The Chnngreable Piute Kind n::cl the Ruinbou- ilct'd I'arrat I'ish. The clear, limpid viators that surj round Bermuda and the Yv'est Indies ! lie above coral reefs covered with : plants and animals, many of which are brilliant in color as a rainbow. They j look like glimpses of fairyland, and as your eye wanders from one wonder to another yon catch yourself striving to I peek just around some corner into a | strange nook, hall' hoping to see a i bevy of mermen and mermaids sportI ing and playing within the -.Tannics. Here is a patch of pale green sea lotj tuce, there a group of great purple sea fans, yonder some golden corals standing out like a shelf or branching like a tree, while among them all swim lovely fishes that take the place of the fairies that should dwell in this magic land and fascinate you by their gorgeous colors and their graceful, wavy motions. There is a great green "parrot fish." as brilliant in color as his namesake the bird, showing himself boldly and swimming along slowly, secure from any assault. Iiis scales are green as the fresh grass of springtime, and each one is bordered by a pale blown line. His fins are pink, and the end of the tail is banded with nearly every color of the rainbow. lie is showy, but this showiness serves him a good purpose. His flesh is bitter and poisonous to man and probably so to other fishes as well, and they let him well alone, for they can recognize him afar off, thanks to his gaudy dress. Underneath the parrot, lying on the bottom, is a "pink hind." You notice him, and as the parrot passes over him he suddenly changes to bright scarlet and as quickly resumes his former faint color. Had the parrot been looking for his dinner and thought the hind would make a good first course this sudden change of color might have scared him off, just as the sudden bristling of a cat makes a dog change his mind. When the hind is disturbed at night, he gives out flashes of light to startle the intruder and send him away in a fright.?Professor C. L. Bristol in St. Nicholas. THE HOLY CITY. Jemsr.lem Still Resembles a Orea; Fortress of Middle Ages. Jerusalem is literally "builded upon its own heap." Below the houses, courts and paved streets of the present unkempt city are the distinguishable remains of eight older cities?those of Solomon, Xehcmiah. Ilerod, Hadrian. Constantlne, Omar, Godfrey, Saladin. Suleman?writes Walter Williams from the Holy City to his paper in Columbia. Mo. Jerusalem has been, besieged twentyseven times, u record of vicissitude unparalleled in the history of the world's elites. It has been burned, sacked, razed to the ground, its inhabitants of every faith put to the sword, all the woes uttered by its own prophets against it have come to pas's, yet Jerusalem still resembles a great fortress of the middle ages. Seen from the Mount of Olives, its massive gray walls, its flat roofed houses, its mosques and churches with their conspicuous towers and minarets, present a marvelous picture, beautiful, sublime, unfading, from the picture gallery of the mind. The city itself has narrow, dirty streets. The water supply for its 70,000 people comes in a four inch pipe. The open courts are few and small, and the houses are bunched together with no regard for room or cleanliness. Some houses are underground and others on top of the high inclosing walls. The people are fanatical, ignorant, selflsh. There is much to detract from the ideal city, but despite all this and more Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives is the same in its essential details, the same in the framework of its setting, the same in fascinating suggestion, as the Jerusalem of which David sang and over which Jesus wept. Points About a Good Horn*. There are some points which are valuable in horses of every description. The head should be proportionately large and well set on. The lower jawbones should be sufficiently far apart to enable tbe bead to rorin an angle with the neck, which gives it free motion and a graceful carriage and prevents it bearing too heavily 011 the hand. The eye should be large, a little prominent, and the eyelids fine and thin. The ear should be small and erect and quick in motion. The lop ear indicates dullness and stubbornness. When too far back, there is a disposition to mischief. Hid Her Love. Charles Dickens, though he married Catherine, one of George Hogarth's three daughters, in 1S3G, was later devotedly attached to her sister Mary. Why he did not marry Mary in the first place is not certainly known unless it be that Mary, a young woman of great loveliness of character, had | successfully concealed her own affec- | tion for Catherine's betrothed in order i to save her sister from disappointment. Percy Fitzgerald, a friend of Dickens, expressed this idea in an article in ; Harper's Magazine entitled "Dickens In Iiis Books."

A well known hunter and taxidermist tells this story of personal experience in South Africa; it goes far beyond dispelling a slander that has long clouded the fair name of the ostrich: Arriving at one of the monster hills bf the white ant, I climbed upon it and raised my observation glasses to my eyes for a careful survey of the region. My first glance showed me, arising from the dead level of the plain beyond, two objects, each having the form of a capital S. These I knew were the heads and necks of two ostriches. Though 1 believed they had sighted me. I remained immovable until their necks were suddenly drawn down to the level of the tops of the bushes which screened their bodies. Then I knew for a certainty that they were aware of my presence and would make a viuick retreat. "Without losing an instant's time I ran to the spot where the birds had been standing and found their tracks. These 1 followed as far as they were 'distinguishable and then took a course wkidli I believed the birds would naturally follow. No sooner had I reached the top of the ravine than I saw one of the ostriches climbing the side hill. Estimating the distance, I took sight and fired. The ball passed immediately between his legs and struck in the sand of the side hill behind him. "In an instant the bird darted away like an arrow in the direction of a small clump of bushes in the center of an open space. That he would pause behind this bush and then finally emerge on the other side seemed certain, and I aimed to catch him as he made a fresh start from behind the Uo flnrr oo ri/I nf a tor. IUV1 lit XJLV lit U V ? CI IUC OUUVl IlL u. kVA rific rate and reached the bushes. Then I waited fully five minutes for him to emerge from his hiding, with mv rifle ready sighted so that I could pull the trigger the second he reappeared, but finally went forward to rout him out. When I reached the clump of bushes, an examination of the sand showed that the crafty old bird had shifted his course at a right angle, making the turn so suddenly that his feet had plowed up the sand for a distance of several inehes. This wary tact had placed the bushes between the bird and myself, and he had made his way to new cover while I was innocently waiting for him on the other side of the ambush. An Apache Indian could not have executed this maneuver more cleverly, and I smiled at myself for having ever been foolish enough to believe the traditional story of how the silly ostrich buries his head in the sand and believes that he is thereby concealed."?Philadelphia Tost.

Goldsmith wrote the "Vicar of Wakefield" in six weeks. It is said to have been a story of his own recollections. Thomas Dunn English wrote "Ben Bolt" in 1S-13, and some fifty years later George Du Maurier made the tender song famous the world over. It has been mentioned as a proof of Alexander Pope's love of economy that he wrote most of his verses on scraps of paper and particularly on the backs of letters. Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre" was rejected by nearly every publisher- in England before it scored one of the greatest literary successes in the world's history. Whittier, the poet, it is reported, said to the doctors in attendance a day or two before his death, "You have done the best possible, and I thank you; but it is of no use?I am worn out.'' Tim nnet Heine on the dav after his i marriage drew up a will in which be bequeathed all ho possessed to his wife on condition that she married again. He desired, he said, that at least one man should regret his death. The Arab Mother's Advlee. When an Arab damsel gets married, her mother gives her the following advice for securing her future happiness: "You are leaving 3 our nest to live with a man with whose ways and habits \*ou are unfamiliar. I 'advise you to become his slave if you wish to become the absolute mistress of your husband, lie satistied with little, endeavor to feed him well and watch over his sleep, for hunger begets anger, and sleeplessness makes a man crossbrained.
