sleeping i'm a cold Room.

Halls Journal of Health says that cold
bed-chambers always imperil health and
invite fatsbdiseases. Robust persons may
safely sleep 10 temperature OF forty or
under, but the old, the infant, and the irail
should never sleep in a room where the
atmosphere is much under fifty degrees
Fahrenheit. ,- 15S.
All know the danger Of going direct into
the cold from a very warm room. Very
few rooms, churches, theatres, and the
like, are, ever warmer than seventy de-
grees. Fit is freezing out of doors, 1t 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 Tor
hours an atmosphere of forty and even
fifty degrees, when the lungs are always at
ninety-eight, is too great q change. Many
persons wake up in the morning with in.
flammatlon of the lungs who went to bee
well and are surprised that this should bt
the case. The cause may often be founo
in sleeping in a room the window Of which
had been foolishly hoisted for ventilation
The water-cure journals Of the country
have done an incalculable injury by tn
blind and indscriminate advice of hosting
the windows at night
The rule should be everywhere during
the part of the year when fires are KEEP
burning, to avoid hosting outside win
dows. 1t is safer and better to leave thu
chamber door open, as also the fireplace

the room is not SO likely to become cold
If there is some fire in the room all nigh
the window may be opened an inch. II
safer to sleep in bad air all night with
temperature over fifty than in a pure al
with temperature under forty. The ba
air may sicken you, but cannot kill you
the cold air can and does kill very often.

The Romantic Story of John f. Ovens
Ar Marriage.
"Jessica," the society gossper of the
Washington, ID. c., Sunday Chronicle,
writes:
sit has been many, many years since
we first saw Owens. Then he was the hand
soonest man on the stage, with superb
aud graceful figure, fine features, and
glorious crowning of golden brown hair,
which his eccentricity caused him to cover
whenever on the stage with q
fiery red wig. At that day
actors and actresses, however high they
might stand in their own profession, rarely
attained to any high social position. Dur
| ing an engagement at the Baltimore
Musuem he fell in love with and courted
the beautiful Miss Warfeld, the acknowl-
edged belle and leader in the aristocratic
world of that city, famed for its beautiful
women, aud delicious terrapiR! Owens
benefit was announced, and the Museum
was crowded to its utmost capacity, tol
the handsome young actor was an Immense
fayorite with the theatre-goers. A lont
DELAY followed the last notes Of the lover
ture - the band again began to play
} IA half and then an hour, when tn
manager appeared, and stated to tn
crowd that their money would be refunde
at the door, Mr.. Owens being unable
appear. The scene which followed canne
be described. The next morning tn
: fashionable world was shaken as by o
: earthquake, for the announcement wei
h forth that the beautiful Miss Warfield hs
eloped with Owens, and her cousin Nil
B -, with fellow actor of Il
comedian. How the knowing ones talked
But years came and went. Owens ar
. his lovely wife remained, as they still do,
: most devoted couple fair children came
bless the union, and to-day who sa
: aught but that it has been happy marriag
The other welded couple led most wretc
ed life. The poor vile struggled against pc
2 erty and illness until death, SO welcome
such cases, relieved her cares. Her HI
band proved totally unworthy, and, we
, lieve, died from mantd-d-potu."

FRUIT ON THE TABLE First in the
list of dinner-table decoration we would
place a dish of choice fruit. There is
something quite appetizing IN the appear
ance of such an ornament. although it does
not lead to gluttcnY; and cheerfll-look-
ing table tends greatly to put those who
surround it in the same mood, and thereby
aid digestion. Apples and pears are very
abundant in almost every part of the coun-
y; but Judging from our own observation
not one housewife in twenty ever thinks OF
setting a dish of them upon the table to be
eaten with the regular meals at the very
time that fruit should be used to promote
health. 1t may not always be convenient
to have fruit upon the table, but other
| things may be used to take its place as an
ornament II not for food. --Rurdl Neu

How TO Cook CRANBERRIEs.- The
culinary art can be well employed on these
aciduated berries, as any housekeeper
who tries these directions will find. Only
one hint to the ladies may be necessary IN
this connection, and that is, buy only red
cranberries. They alone are ripe, and q
few white berries, with their bitter acid,
will as cffectually demoralize a dish OF
sauce as, according to Josh Billings, one
enthusiastic hornet will disperse camp
meeting. Et
I Remove all defective berries, and wash
the remainder through several waters. To
every pound of fruit add pound of sugar
Put them into preserving-kettle over 9
fire; stew slowly. To prevent the berries
from sticking to the kettle, stir them FIRE
quently with silver spoon. When done
turn them into deep dish, and set then
aside to cool; after which they may b
used for pies, tarts, or sauce.-Weste'1

THE ELECTION IN THE CITY.

The sun rose this morning in unclouded
splendor, and no better day could have been
desired on which freeman should exercise
a freeman's right in voting for those who
shall guide not only the helm of state but
make the laws under whose protection we
i've. The polls were opened at sunrise
at all the voting precincts, and the officers
at the several polling booths found at
each one crowd eager and impatient
to exercise the elective franchise, Up to
3 D. m. the time Of this writing, the voting
had proceeded, minus some little irregu-
larities, without noticeable disturbance,
though there were present in some of the
more notorious precincts in the eastern
section of the city ample evidence that the
Conservative partisan officials who engi-
neered the voting, wanted only the oppor-
tunity to re-enact on the colored Republic
can voters the tactics which in times past
haye made some of them memorable for
deserved but urenviahle infamy,
We hope that the voting will proceed to its
conclusion without bloodshed or riot. We
apprehend nothing of the sort however.
Let those who have not voted now do so.
Time is precious. Time is fleeting An
hour or 50 and the polls close. Republi-
cans, one and all have you done your duty !?
With full vote we confidently look
for the election Of our city and general
ticket. Let that full vote be given. We
can Eonly assure or readers that if the
Republicans leverywhere have been as un-
tirring IN their efforts throughout the state
as those of our city, success will perch
upon our banner.

9 News NEWS NEWS 1.-THE
Richmond correspondent of the Petersburg
Index and Appeal has the following IN
teresting bit of information in that journal
Of to-day:
"It is reported tonight that the Radicals
have deliberately conoocted plan to get
up riot in this city tomorrow, in the hope
Of having an excuse for an appeal to
the President to install Hughes
in case Of closely contested
election. Last night the keeper of the
state arsenal was knocked down and rob-
bed of the key of the arsenal, and this
morning the building was found open. 1t
is not known whether any arms were
stolen. The colonel Of the First regiment
has been ordered to have his men ready
to turn out at moments warning, and
one hundred special policemen have been
sworn in by the city authorities. A detach-
ment of company F., Guard of the Conn
monwealth. will guard the arsenal tonight
and detachment Of company F., will per-
form the same duty tomorrow night. 1t is
hoped, however, that the negroes will
keep quiet after all and allow us to have a
peaceful election"
The above is all news to us as it is
doubtless to our whole community, with
the exception of number OF special
policeman having been sworn in, we have
not been able to see the necessity for thai
act, but suppose some of the boys wanted
a few dollars, and as an election was about
to be held they came down on the Con.
servatives and the city treasury had to sue
comb.
