Society and Sleep.

1T is claimed that the average of human
life has been gradually decreasing as the
world grows older. Our wars are exces-
sively bloody, owing to the skill with
which death dealing explosives are man
ufactured and operated. Civilization
has surrounded us with many comforts,
but it also has laid a heavy tax upon the
vital energies. We want better ventila-
tion in our houses, to be more discreet
in our diet, and to get out of many of the
ways affected by polite society. The New
York Times some days ago called atten-
tion to the fact that most adults, in nor
NAL condition, are conscious of ten
dency to drowsiness about eleven O'Clock
at night, and it reasoned that we all
should act upon this hint to go to bed,
for, sleep once banished after midnight, is
not easily wooed back again. Sleep is q
great restorer 1t reiuvenates the wor n
out man, and those who go to bed at ir.
regular hours soon find the bloom of
health fading from their checks.
To keep from growing prematurely old,
we must take care of ourselves. The so
cisl festivities of the polite world com.
mence too late at night. We do not think
of going to the ball or party before ten
O'Clock; and then we keep up the dissipa-
ton until the morning hours creep apace.
To make practice of doing this is to
coquette with sleep. We 60 to
bed tired and we get up tired.
We know not the bliss of perfect
slumber, and so not rise refreshed to
grapple with the duties of our
daily lives 1.-The remedy for all this, "
said the Times, sis very simple. Let our
balls and parties only begin couplc of
hours earlier. Everybody will have pre-
cisely the same amount of enjoyment,
get to bed in good time, and get up next
morning feeling infinitely better than
after one of those midnight routs. For
some time past, among sensible enter,
tainers, there has been movement in
this direction. But it should be syste-
matte to be effective. Let it cnce be un.
derstood that 1t is as unfashionable to
come late to an evening party as tits now

How TO BREAK OFF BAD HABITS. In
derstand the reason, and all the reasons,
why the habit is injurious. Study the SUBJ
ject till there is no lingering doubt in your
mind. Avoid the places, the persons,
and the thoughts that lead to the tempta-
tion. Frequent the places, associate
with the persons. indulge in the thoughts
that lead away from temptation. Keep
busy; idleness is the strength of bad
habits. Do not give up the struggle when
you have broken your resolution once,
twice, thousand times. That only
shows how much need there is for you to
strive. When you have broken your res.
olution Just think the matter over, and
endeavor to understand why it is you
failed, SO that you may be on your guard
against q recurrence of the same circum-
stances. Do not think il an easy thing
that you have undertaken. 1t Is folly 10
expect TO break off habit in day which
may have been gathering strength in you
for years.
ONE Captain Devorouze, Frenchman,
has invented miners knapsack which
promises to prevent the future recurrence
of death from choke damp, so common in
mines. Successful experiments have been
made in the Paris catscombs. A glass
case has been set up, into which . man
goes with his knapsack and initiates mi
ner's action. His knapsack is of tin, and
is filled with supply of vital air, a
reserve fund of which is kept iii a cylin
der near by. When the man stoops over,
his nostrils are closed by means Of q
spring, and he takes in the air through a
gutta percha tube with bone mouth
piece, which he holds constantly in his
mouth. The apparatus interferes in no
way with the usual work of the miner,
and in she experimental glass-case, man
goes on with his work in an atmosphere
of carbolic acid, which almost instantly
kills rabbit and a chicken that we1e
placed in the same case, but without the
saving knapsack.

Can Buildings be Set ON Fire by
Steam Pipes!

THE recent destructive fires have raised
the question as to the safety Of the use of
steam pipes in heating buildings, and, as
in some instances the true cause has been
enveloped in mystery (Which is quite nat
ural, as fire destroys all evidelce), the
Fire Marshal of New York has found it
most expedient to throw the blame simply
on steam in those cases where the build
ings were warmed by that agent.
AS steam may be considered to be the
most safe, healthy and economical of all
modes of heating buildings, such sus-
picion is to be deplored, as it is apt to
raise prejudice against it. Hota air fur
naces may be considered dangerous, as
proved by the ell-established evidences
of the fire records, but not so with the
steam heating. In fact, there is no well -au-
thenticated record wherein pipes through
which steam passes have actually set fire
to woodwork. and no one experimenter
has yet succeeded in igniting wood with
such pipes. We maintain that any man
of science who has studied the subject of
steam, or any practical engineer OF COM
mon sense, knows that all that steam can
do, even when superheated, is to make
the woodwork hot and dry, and to pre-
dispose it to catch fire. The spark must
be supplied from another source; the
steam tubes can never attain, outside the
heating apparatus, the high temperature
of 900 or 1000 Fahrenheit required for
the red heat which is necessary to set
wood work on fire.
In this city many of the steam m-beating
apparatuses are worked on pressure not
above ten pounds per square incA, which
gives heat of 241 degrees F. for the
water in the boiler, and somewhat less
heat, of course for the steam which sir
eulates in the pipes. In the majority OF
the buildings heated by steam common
boiler is used, from which team-plpes
are carried through the premises, and an
ordinary pretsure for sush boilers is forty
pounds per inch, which gives heat OF
2S9 degrees F. At pressure OF l2O
pounds above the atmospheric pressure
we have heat of 355 degrees. 1t will
thus be seen that at pressures far above
any that are used for heating purposes,
the heat circulated in steam pipes is much
below that required for the ignition of
wood.
That steam-pipes predispose woodwork
to combustion, and even may assist the
spontaneous com bustion which is apt to
commence in rags soaked in any animal
or vegetable oil, cannot be denied; but
then any heating apparatus will do the
same, and steam is in this respect not so
dangerous as draft of hot air proceed
ing from a furnace, in which a leak may
carry spa-k upward, while leak from
a steam tube is utterly harmless. In re-
gard to spontaneous combustion, any
danger of that, from oil, may be avoided
by using, for lubricating. TIE heavy lu-
bricating petroleum. This material is
not apt to oxidation or spontaneous heat
ing, as one of our esteemed correspon-
dents discovered and published in our
paper several years ago; which valuable
property is now also being publicly rec.
ognized IN Europe.-Seienttfc Americen.

MARCH.
BY CONSTANCE F. wOoLsoN.


MARCH. Its tree, Juniper. It's stone, Blood
stone. Its motto, Courage and strength in times
Of danger '-O5d Saying
lin the gray Gawnng across the white lake,
Where the ce-hummocks in frozen waves break,
Mid the glittering spears OF the far Northern
Lights,
Like cavalry escort OF steel-coated knights,
Spanning the winters cold gulf with arch,
Over it, rampant, rides in the wild March.
Galloping, galloping gallopins in,
Into the world with a stir and a din,
The north wind, the east wind, and the west
Infringing, infringing the March's wild
weather.
Hear his rough chant as he dashes along:
''Ho, We March children, come list to my song!
A bold outlaw am I both to do and to dare,
And fear not old Earth nor the Powers OF the
Winters u dotard, and Summers prude
But spring loves me well, although AIN rude
Fgltering lingering, listening Spring
BIushing she waits for the ciang and the ring
OF my swift horses hoofs; then forward she
RepelIing, returning, my boisterous earesses.
''The winds are uabound and loose in .he sky
Rioting, frocking, madly on high;
Are ye able TO cope with the North winds strong
armr
Welcome boldly his fierce grasp; twill do you no
harm.
He knows the children of March my own,
Sealed with my signet of magic blood dstone.
Blood stone, red blood stone, green, dark, and
Blood is for ardor and stone is for might;
And the watch-word borne ON by West Wind,
the ranger,
Is Courage and strength in the moment OF
DANGER
Children of March are We strong. are ye strongs
Shame not the flag the West Wind bears along;
q, ye men of the March! be ye firm as the steel;
q, ye women of Marchl be ye loyal and leal-
Strong in your loving, and strong in your hate,
Constant, like juniper, early and late.
Juniper, juniper, juniper green,
Berries of blue ser in glitterng sheen.
In the winters cold snow, in summers hot
splendor,
Unchanging, unchanging, thou heart true and
tenderi"
Singing OF juniper forward he whrled,
Gliloping, gAlloping on through the world;
And when, shiyering, waking, the dull Day gazed
out
From her tower in the gray clouds, she heard but
the shout
OF the riotous winds as they followed in glee,
on, on to the wooing in mad revelry.
W0olng, the wooing, the wooing OF Spring
Here's a bold wooing that makes the woods
ring
And thrills the leaf-buds, though with snow
oyerladen,
AS March, the wild outlaw, bears off the spring

Scientific, Or WDstc

A curious Investigator on the water
subject informs our scieptllic reporter
that the works Of the Memphis Water
Company win have the effect of Bour-
bombing or converting al jewellers on
Tennessee soil in Memphis into States
Rights freemen, on the principle that
what supplies the body with nourishment
necessarily makes brain power, and as a
consequence gives birth to thoughts and
ideas corresponding in some elements
to the food we eat and digest. He says
that heretofore the people of Memphis
have been drinking water from the Pa
cifc Ocean, because the sun absorbed
water from that reservoir and the pre-
vailing westerly winds in winter time
carried the water over the Rocky Noun
tains, where it became chilled and fell
into the Mississippi valley in the
shape of snow, sleet and rain,
which filling our cisterns created
a consumption Of Pacific ocean water
in Memphis, or our drink came from
SHOWS on the Rocky Mountain tops and
slopes, that melted and flowed down the
Missouri into the Mississippi, and on to
Memphis, where It was gathered up and
used as a beverage. Nov the Water
works Company will make US drink
native born Tennessee water from the
springs that form the source Of Wolf
river, and hence its effect when drunk,
will be to create state-ripbts feeling in
the blood and bosom of eyery denizen.
Should this view Of the case be correct,
the water-works organization IS bless
ing that will defeat any scheme to de-
stroy the important principle of State
Rights, and defeat an establishment of
the monstrosity known as grating
despotism upon Republican form of
government, or, in other words central
ization of power.
