In explaining the cause of the explodcn said that the men found that a can of nitro glycerine In trie magazine was leaking^ Mr. Goodwin picked <sp what he thought was a jug of water and began pouring it on- the nitro glycerine.

The direct causes appear to bo licit, dust and the pollen o£ flowers. Although hay fever may occur at any season of tho year, it is most common and severe in August, and preventive treatment should bd: adopted some weeks before the time/ tho disease is due. - ( Prior to the discovery of tho ro-^ marknble effects following the use ofg liyomei, the oidy treatment thalJL ga vo relief- to hay fever - suffererea was change of climate. Tho use or liyomei enables anyone to breathe air at home which is like that of tho \dirondacks , the White Mountains or other health \resorts where heal* ing balsams till the air with nature's germ destroyer, ozofie. Those who are subject to hay fever should begin the use of Hyo- mei at onco and thus prevent the disease. An ounce of preventive.is worth a pound of cure in the treat- ment of hay fever. ('hits. A.
