OPEN WINDOWS At NIGHT.

Very much has been written on this SUD-
iect, and written unwisely; the facts are
that whoever sleeps uucomfortably cooi
will get sick To hoist a window SKY
high is an absurdity.
The colder sleeping apartment Is the
more unhealthy does it become. pecause
cold condenses the carbonic acld formed
by the breathing of the sleeper. 1t set

If in very condensed form, he viii die
before morning. Hence we must be gov
erned by circumstances; the first thing is,
you must be comfortably warm during the
sleep, otherwise you are not refreshed,
and inflammation Of the lungs may be en-
gendered, and life destroyed within few
days. y 3 gKNE II a. VS.
An open door and an open fireplace are
sufficient for ordinary purposes in cold
zs weather. When outer windows are
opened, it is well to have them down at
the top two or three inches, and up at the
bottom for the same space.
In miasmatic loealities-and these are
along waterconrses, beside millponds,
marshes. bayous, river bottoms, fiat lands
and the like-it is most important, from
the first of August until several severe
frosts have been noticed, to sleep. with all
external doors and windows closed, be-
cause the cool air of sunset causes the con-
densation of the poisonous emanations
which were caused by the heat of the noon
day sun to rise far above the earth; this
condensation makes the air sheavy'' at
shutdown. made heavy by the greater sol
idfication of the emanations by cold and
resting on the surface of the earth i'm their
more concentrated and malignant form,
they are breathed. into the lungs, and
swallowed into the stomach, corrupting
and poisoning the blood with great rapidi-
ty. BY daylight these condensations are
made SO compact by the protracted cool
ness of the night, that they are too near
the surface of the earth to be breathed in
to the system; but as the sun begins to
ascend, these heavy condensations, miasms
begins TO rise again to the heights of sew
&. eral feet above the ground, and are freely
taken into the system by every breath and
swallow; hence the hours Of sunrise and
sunset are the most unhealthful of all the
hours of twenty-four in the localities
named; and noontide, when the sun is
hottest, is the most healthy portion of the
day, because the miasm is so much rari- |
fed that it ascends rapidly to the upper
regions.
E The general lessons are, 1st, Avoid ox-
posure to the outdoor air in miasmatic To-
calities for the hours including sunrise and
sunset. I'd, Have blazing fire on the |
hearth of the family room at those hours,
to rarely and send the miasm upwards |

ANECDOTE OF A PET DOVE.

The river Neva, on the banks anu Is
lands of which the city of st. Petersburg
is built, often rises suddenly on the break7
inc up of the ice in spring. Much peru
consequently overtakes those whose nome
steads are near the rivers banks to be en-
dangered by the overwhelming force OF
the torrent, as well as by those floating
blocks of ice whose destructive power Is
irresistible. During one OF these sudden
and terrific foundations, a striking incident
was related to me as received from the
truthful lips of an eyewitness. In one OF
the small tenements on the lower banks OF
the river. a lovely, fair-haired girl, about
eight or nine years old, dwelt win heI
parents, who were workers IN helpP 'n"
flax. The child's greatest earthly treasure
was a beautiful little dove rescued from
the hands OF the destroyer, VINO ltu iuue-
10 torn away the parent bird from the nest
tbuc II bad been nestled in her bosom ana
fad from, her lips. and they became almost
insenarable companions, except when the
1;t4Ia Uilda accompanied her parents to
cbncb. or to market with their home-spun
Goods, when, for greater safety, the bird
was suspended from the ceiling IN Its
ouaint wicker dwelling, to await. with a
faint f1utter of delight, the little maid re-
turning footsteps; then the door OF inc
cage was thrown open, and the dove flew
joyfully to its usual perch or resting pace
on Hilda's shoulder. Such possibly might
have been their mutual position when the
rush and roar of waters suddenly swept |
over their little dwelling, the force OF the
destructive element leaving no time for
flight or escape in any shape. The
child was soon seen struggling in the wild
whirl of waters, whilst the dove with ex-
banded wings, (Which instinct would have |
taught her to use for flight and safety, |
lowered over her little protectress, flutter-
ing around her with inexpressible alarm,
now perching on her head or breast when |
she rose to the surface, and with her little |
beak making vain efforts to rescue the
floating locks of silk-like hair borne |
backward and forwards by the eddies
of the torrent. When the fair young
head was again engulphed, the dove
into the swelling waves after it,
then rose with it again, until, natures
struggles exhausted, the loving little head,
and the wet weary wing, sunk, never to
rise again, in the overwhelming waters

At the store of Gen. NJ. S. Grant, in this
city, is the finest reaper in the world, which
is offered as premium for the best ten acres
of wheat in Kansas or Missouri, the award to
be made at fair, and in the manner to be
hereafter designated.
The machine has already taken 800 pre-
miums, and is as beautiful in shiny brass and
polished steel as anything We ever saw. 1t
cost the manufacturers-the Champion Com
pany, Springfield, Ohio-Sl 500, and is
t. day the most magnificent premium ever
offered for competition to the farmers Of any
State in the Union.
We trust that the agriculturists Of Kansas
will make ready for the prize and not allow
il to be taken to Missouri. And if any of
them wish to SEE it, let them call upon Gen.
Grant, at his store, on Shawnee street, where
il will remain until it is carried TO the fair to
be turned over to the successful farmer. Ten
