SLEEPING IN A COLD ROOM.

Halls Journal of Health says that
cold bed-chambers always imperil health
and invite fatal diseases. Robust per-
sons may safely sleep in a temperature
of forty or under, but the old, the in
FAINT and the frail, should never sleep in
room where the atmosphere is much
under fifty degrees Fahrenheit.
All know the danger of going direct
into the cold from very warm room.
Very few rooms, churches, theatres and
the like, are ever warmer than seventy
degrees. If it is freezing out of doors
it is thirty degrees-the difference being
forty degrees more. Persons will be
chilled by such change in ten minutes,
although they may be actively walking.
But to lie still in bed, nothing to pro-
mote the circulation, and breathe for
hours an atmosphere of forty and even
fifty degrees, when the lungs are always
at ninety-eight, is too great change.
Many persons wake up in the morning
with inflammation of the lungs who
went to bed we'll, and are surprised that
this should be the case. The cause
may often be found in sleeping in O
room the window of which had been
foolishly hoisted for ventilation. The
water cure journals of the country have
done an incalculable injury by the
blind and indiscriminate advice of hoist
ing the window at night.
The rule should be, everywhere dur
ing the part of the year when fires are
kept burning, to avoid hosting outside
windows. 1t is safer and better to leave
the chamber door open, as also the fire
place-then there is q draft up the
chimney, while the room is not so like
" to become cold. 1t there is some
fire in the room all night the window
may be opened IN inch. 1t is safer to
sleep in bad air all night with tenn
peratnre over fifty, than a pure air with
a temperature under forty. The bad
air may sicken you bnt cannot kill you
the cold air can and does kill very
often.

IANDsEER's FUNERAL IN ST. pAurs.

LANDSEERS FUNERAL IN ST. PAUL'F.
LONDON, October lin Fleet street
this morning there were unaccustomed
groups of people standing on the pave
ments and here and there, along the
Strand and Fleet street flags at half
mast are floating in the air. The fun
eral cortege of Sir Edwin Landseer was
about to pass by on its way to the
Cathedral, and the people were waiting
to see it. Probably not one in thou
sand among these people had ever seen
Sir Edwin Landseer but nearly all of
them-all Of them, I think--had seen
his work, and had experienced pleasure
through them. So there was something
of q tie between the dead man who was
about to be carried by in his coffin and
these simple and unostentatious mour-
ners. Presently the head of the funeral
procession came through Temple Bar.
1t had passed from the West end, down
Pail Mall, and through Trafalgar square,
by the Nelson monument, at whose base
crouch the four gigantic lions, the work
of this dead mans skilful hands. At
the head of the line rode a squad of
mounted policemen, then came twelve
mourning coaches, each drawn by two
coal-black horses covered with black
velvet pals then came the hearse, COW
cred with plumes, its pail bearing the
monogram "E. L." and drawn by four
horses then three more mourning
coaches, and finally dozen carriages,
some with coronets and royal arms up
on their panels and others not thus
adorned. Along the line walked the in
evitable mutes, with their black wands
and their grotesque scarfs and bands
and that was all. 1t was not an impos-
ing spectacle you may see far finer
funeral going down Thirtyfourth street
any day in the week. However, it does
not matter. Landseer's fame will not
suffer because his funeral was shabby

Large mills at Cohoes and Newburgh,
New York, have suspended work.
For the first time in several years, q
large number of the Hudson county
liquor saloons were closed yesterday.
Others were partially closed, and an
mitted customers by side and rear en-
frances. The occasion for this unusual
conformity to the requirements of the
law is believed to be the fear of the sa-
loon keepers that indictments would be
served against them, as Judge Bedle, in
his charge to the Hudson county grand
jury, recently called attention to the fact
that the Sunday liquor law was general.

In these times of great depression il
business, it is gratifying to know thai
the export of cotton and grain is very
large. If we must import fancy and
staple goods to the value of hundreds
of millions yearly, it is better to pay
for them as we go, and not allow our
Indebtedness to foreign manufacturers
and artisans to pile up any higher than
at present. Many old fashioned people
believe that it would be better to i'm
port fewer Injuries, and do more to en-
courage home manufacturers. We
agree with these old fogies.

Cotton has recently declined about
two cents pound, the demand for the
mills being very small. Throughout
the New England states cotton factories
are generally running about half time.
In many instances the manufacturers
have resolved to stop work until a more
prosperous season. The leading print
works will close at once. 1t is estimat-
ed that, in New England, rot less than
two hundred and fifty thousand opera
tives in the various cotton manufactures
