furnaces Of all sorts are called into requisi-
tion for the comfort Of the household. Tie
warmth is indeed grateful when the wintry
blasts begin to blow But unfortunately
in connection with the heat, poisonous
gases-chiehy carbonic acid and carbonic
oxide-are generated, and they peryade
the house, vitiate the air, and cause head
aches and other miserable feelings. Clos
ing the damper which is usually put across
the entrance Of the smoke fuc in the heater
or furnace does indeed check the fire, and
it also checks the proper escape Of gases.
The fire should be controlled by shifting
oil the air from beneath it. Fresh air
should be admitted also to furnace-hcated
rooms at least twice day until they are
thoroughly aired IF this were done head
aches and colds would be less frequent.

NearnesS Of Death.

When we walk near powerful machinery
we know that one misstep and those mighty
engines will tear us to ribbons with their
flying wheels, or grind us to powder in
ponderous jaws. So when we are thunder
ing across the land in a railroad carriage
and there is nothing but an inch of iron
fange to hold US on the line. SO when
we are in ship and there is nothing but
the thickness of plank between us and
eternity. We imagine, then that we see
how close We are to the edge of the preci-
picc. But we DO not see it. Whether on
the sea Or on the land the partition that
divides US from eternity is something less
than the oak plank or a halfinch iron fange.
The machinery of life and death is within
us. The tissues that hold the beating pow
ers in their places are often not thicker
than sheet of paper, and if that thin par
tltlon rupture 1t would be the same as if =
cannon ball struck US Death is INSOFAR
ably bound up with life in the very struc-
ture Of our bodies. Struggle as he may
to widen the space, no man can at any time
go further from death than the thickness
Of sheet OF paper
