Plants I'm Rooms.

Considerable has been written lately in regard
20 the influence Of plants on the air of rooms,
and the prepOndersnce OF opinion has been that
the effects are bad. A contributor TO Appleton's
journal questions this verdict. He holds that
in the organic world plants and animals form
two mutually antsgonistic agencies. Animals
and fire are constantly viiiatng the atm 1s phere,
Nhhe plants, on the other hand, are as con-
stsntly purifying il by absorbing the carbonic
acid thai Is sent out 10y the ERE and the breath
1t is true that plants act purifiers only in the
presence of sunlight, ard during darkness they
are apt TO give out a small portion OF the car
ionic acid they had previously absorbed; but
this fact may be safely disregarded, a. the
quantity Of gas given out in such circumstances
one OF the largest house plants probably does
rot equal the amount that would be omitted BY
half dozen eXpiratiOns of an ordinary adult.
Moreover, there are good grounds for believing
that, in addition to the removal of mere car
ionic acid, plants exercise a salutary influence
upon the oxygen of the air. Thus the we'll
known influence of sun flowers, and other plants
with large foliage, in preventing mssma, has
been attributed to the fact that the oxygen given
out by these plants is highly ozoniZed, and that
this ozone destroys the miasmatic germs.
On the whole, then, there IS no reason for
suppOsing that the foliage of ordinary plants
exercises an injurious influence on the air of
rooms. An exception should be made in the
case Of some odorous plants, but it is not easy to
give specific directions on this point from the
fact that different constitutions are differently
affected by the same plant. Certain plants,
such as lilies and others of that family seem 10
affect some persons, while to others they are
perfectly innocuous. The flowers of kaimias
and rhododendrons are highly narcotic, while
the plants, themselves, are harmless. The
pollen of the sweet vern al grass affords only
delicious fragrance to some, while to others it
gives the painful ebay fever" One rule Is,
however, tOlersbly safe, and that is that those
plants which are generally kept for the beauty
of foliage, and which are destitute of odor, such
as ivy and various climbing vines, are quite
harmless In regard to towering and highly
Odoriferous plants, personal experience is the
only safe guide

"well in his boots" for the first time,
said to his mother, after she had finished
the reading of the customary chapter in
the family bible
" Mother, do you know why Moses did
not wear boots ?"
"Why, my son, what makes you ask
thatY Perhaps he did. We don't
know.
No, mother, he didn't because the
Bible says that the voice that came out
of the burning bush told him to take
off his shoes !"
