stant exposure to solar light is one Of the
causes which render q summer journey
through high northern latitudes so pecul.
iarly healthfll and invigorating. Dr.. Ed
wards has also remarked that persons who
live in caves or cellars, or in very dark or
narrow streets, are apt to produce deformed
children and that men who work in mines
are liable to disease and defrmity.
Light, therefore, is condition Of vital
activity, and IN view only Of preser' ing

sary that while he be the habitant OF the
stable, his optics shall have free access to
the suns rays.

polype, with no organ Of vision, who
shuns light, dark stable might prove tn
be his earthly paradise, but as the horse
has special organs Of vision, evidently sus.
ceptible to the influence Of light, and the
integrity Of his organism, or part Of the
same, depending entirely on the admission
Of light, it is absolutely necessary that sta.
bles should be constructed accordingly.
