Suddenly he dropped two back in the box and touched the third pill with the tip of his tongue; not content with that he crushed it in his fingers, sniffed the drug, and again tested it with his tongue. His expression was peculiar as he looked up at Kent. "These are not aconitine pills," he stated positively. "They are nitro-glycerine. How did they get in this box?"

In yet another direction must it be noticed that our nitrogen compounds are being lost to plant life viz., by the use of various nitrogen compounds to form explosives. Gunpowder, nitro-glycerine, dynamite, in fact, nearly all the explosives that are used the world over for all sorts of purposes, are nitrogen compounds.

You said something about Hampton being nitro-glycerine human nitro-glycerine. You predicted this strike." "Did I? perhaps I did," he assented. "Maybe you suggested the idea." "I suggested it! Oh no, I didn't it was new to me, it frightened me at the time, but it started me thinking about a lot of things that had never occurred to me."

Johnson peeping in the pantry door, having the time of their lives, too. That dinner was going like an airship on a high wind, when something happened to tangle its tail feathers, and I can hardly write it for trembling yet. It was a simple little telegram, but it might have been nitro-glycerine on a tear for the way it acted.

"You fellows are overworked, and are nervous, The company ought to give you a furlough, and pay your expenses to the sea shore." Just then there was a rustling as if somebody had rolled over in bed and a voice said, as plainly as possible: "O, how I suffer!" If a nitro-glycerine bomb had exploded there could not have been more commotion.

After becoming acquainted with gun-cotton, nitro-glycerine, dynamite, lithofracteur, and other combinations of powerfully-explosive agents, I took to searching for and inventing methods by which these might be utilised. To turn everything to good account, is a desire which I cannot resist. Explosives naturally drew my attention to mines tin-mines, coal-mines, and other commercial enterprises.

I lingered on at Ostersund until I heard that my heavy luggage had arrived at Kuwatin, via Clear Water Bay and the Lake of the Woods, having had a narrow escape on its way over the portage. The horse ran away, and dragged the cart over a number of nitro-glycerine cans.

For a moment Ralph thought of what an experience it would be, to explode sixty-four quarts of nitro-glycerine, and what an adventure would be his to relate when he returned to college; therefore he marched boldly up to the well, at the bottom of which was such a dangerous agent ready to do its work.

I am locating some oil-producing lands, in a valley where game is abundant, where the fish prefer an artificial fly to a natural one, and where the moonlighter revels with his harmless-looking but decidedly dangerous nitro-glycerine cartridge." "What do you mean by moonlighter?" asked Ralph, as he seated himself in the mud-bespattered carriage which George pointed out as his.
