FREE DISCUSSION.
FRESH Air in Church.

DEAR DEAcoN-Do you think good
Christians have no lungs? Do you re-
gard the Gospel and pure air antagonistic !?
No Then phy won't you let down the
windows these lovely spring afternoons,
and let the pure air of God be the insplra-
ton of our prayers and the glad songs Of
birds mingle with our notes of praise T?
An adult inspires 90 cubic feet of air in an
hour, about the length of time he is in
church. IF this air is not pure he breathes
faster, to get the required amount ofoxygen.
If this is not supplied, he gets giddy and
drowsy, breathing vitiated air, full of nox-
ious effluvia his brain refuses to receive
impressions, and he goes to sleep if he is
not kept awake with o headache by a
strong effort of the will.
| wish, my dear deacon, you would
measure your church, and then sit down
with paper and pencil and figure out how
long full congregation could tire there
with the doors and windows shut. You
must subtract something tor the space oc-
cupied by the body, and find out from the
doctor how long each persons supply of
air will last him, for the poisoned is con-
tinually mixing with the pure. We wish
to worship with clear understanding, and
il you won't give us pure air in the church
we must seek Gods ancient sanctuaries
&c In the darkling wood,
Amid the cool and silence, to kneel down
And offer to the Mightiest solemn thanks
And application" ~ ....
Yours truly,
HOLLYWOOD.

How Agricultural Papers Pay

We quote from The Carolina Farmer
this edifying story of what far-seeing hus-
bandman, in one of the back peighborhoods
of Eastern New York did, some twenty
years since, to enhance the value of his
property by elevating the standard Of ag-
ricuture among the farmers around him,
no one of whom took a weekly newspaper
or an agricultural periodical:
He subscribed for 20 copies, and had
them mailed to as many of his townsmen,
selecting those in whom he had most hope.
He wrote to all, telling what he had done,
and saying he would receive nothing for
the paper the first year, at the end ofwhich,
if they did not consider it worth the club
price, they could stop it, and inform him
of their decision. Some Of the farmers
were so prejudiced that they would not read
them, but their children did,, and told
the parents what they had found, and
finally all became interested, and every one
subscribed, or got their sagacious neigh
bors to do so for them, the next year.
From the time the journals began to be
read, improvement in the general farm
practice commenced. Improved imple-
ments were obtained, draining, and turn
ing in of green crops was introduced, one
bought new breed of fowls, and another
fine ram, another Berkshire boar, and
another moving machine, and so on; by
degrees there was a general improvement
in the system of farming, and correspond
ing increase in the market value of the land
in the neighborhood, and this liberal
neighbor sold his farm and went West, and
he told the writer that he was satisfied that
the 90 papers, donated five years before he
sold his farm, enabled him to realize fully
80 900 more for it than he would have
done, had he not given impetus to farm
Improvement in the neighborhood by in
ducing the farmers to read.

Many poor horse falls exhausted in
summer time, because of the heat, the
driver says, but much too frequently from
the want Of water. 1t is now known that
many man suffers in similar way in
summer, not so much from the sun as from
there being not enough Of water mixed
with the whiskey he has drunk. A little
more water would be a benefit in both in
stances.
1t is not suggested that water may not
sometimes be an injury both to man and
beast, but that in large number of cases
much more might be used to the advantage
of both.-Forney's Press.
