VENTILATIoN.--Dr. Hamilton Of
Buffalo, says 1--WE need for our
dwellings more ventilation and less
heat, more outdoor exercise, more
sunlight, more manly, athletic, and
rude sports, more amLsements, more
holidays, more fro'ic and noisy,
boisterous mirth. These will result
in greater abundance of fresh air
in our dwellings,. A proper temper,
ature as the first condition of mental
activity, and the removal of carbonic
acid, which flowers the vitality and
kills with indefinite warming are
prime conditions for the development
of nation that is yet to rule the
world. Let US abolish the stran-
Cling of innocent children in our
schools by viewless ropes ofpoisoned
air.
Light exerts chemical action
which tends to purify the air we
breathe, and to infuse strength into
our own frames. Dark rooms are
unfit for The dwellings, Of human
beings.

So SORRY.
By EELsN N. COOKE.

My blue-eyed brother lies asleep;
How very sweet Isis rest!
IT'S strange those restless fingers keep
So still upon his breastl
They used TO tumble up my hair
That mother curled so nice,
And toss ny playthings everywhere
And break them in trice.
One day he pulled my earrings out
Those pretty golden rings
That dear Old gramdmamma had bought
Among my Christmas things;
He hurt my ear; it ached and burned.
And was angry. too,
And quick as wink on hi n turned
Ard gave him one sharp blow
But had only known it then,
How very soon he'd die,
should have borne the stinging pain
Nor made dear brother cry.
ca, how wish that he could know
Ny sorrow ard my shame
For that most wicked, naughty blow,
Fer which was to blame.
Now, precious little boys and girls
With babies in your homes.
just let them rumple up your curls,
Aud pull cut rings and combs,
And toss your playthings oui of place,
And break them if they viii,
And bear it all with tender grace
And sweet good nature stil
Then if they lie SO dead and white,
No smile upon their lips,
'Their sunny eyes shut out from light,
No warmth in finger-tips,
And they have gone to come no more
To your embrace again
It will be sweet to whisper DER,
I'VE never gave them paia -
