Are Your Closets Ventilated

There is nothing so handy in house
as an abundance Of large, roomy closets;
but because they are handy and extreme
ly useful they are apt to be abused.
There aremany things which, as a mat
ter of course, are always put intoa closet.
of which the articles of outward wearing
apparel make large part. There are
always things which ought not to go
into the closet, !. e., closet adjoining or
closely connected with % living or sleep,
ing room. Of such are all soiled under
garments, the wash clothes, which
should be put into large bag for the
purpose, or roomy basket, and then
placed in the Mushroom or some other
well-aired room at some distance from
the family. Having thus excluded one
Of the fertile sources of bad oders in
closets, the next point is to see that the
closets are properly ventilated. It mat
ters not how clean the clothing in the
closet may be. Any garment after be-
ing worn for while will absorb more or
less of the exhalations which arise from
the body, and thus contain an amount Of
foreign--it may be hurtful-matter
which free circulation of pure air can
soon remove; but if this is excluded, as
in many close closets, the effuvia in
creases, aud the clothes closets and adj
joining rooms in time possess an odor.
that any acute sense of smell will readily
detect Every closet in daily use in.
which the night clothes are hung by day
and the day clothing by night, should
have an airing as well as the bed. Il
the closet can be large enough to admit
Of window-and it is in some cases
an ample provision for sunlight and the.
circulation of pure air is provided in the
window, which should be left open for a
short time each day. In the case of
small closets ventilater could. be put
over the door or even in it. In many
cases such precautions for pure clothing
are not practicable, and the next-besi
thing is. to see that the door of the
closet is left open for half hour or so
each day at that time when the windows
are thrown up and the large room is
purified with fresh air from ont of doors.
In this way, first, by keeping out clothes
intended for the wash, and second, daily
changing of the air, the closets may be
kept comparatively pure.

The Best Wood to use.

The fuel question is one of a good
deal of moment moi only to our city and
village folks, but also to the farmer. We
have taken considerable time in finding
out which is the most economical variety
of wood to burn for our Minnesota pat
rons. At this time the hard maple is the
favorite in Minneapolis. The people
will give dollar or more cord for this
wood in preference to any other variety
offered in the market, but it is far from
being the most economical. The reason
the maple is so universally used is that
it burns SO readily. A cord Of good
seasoned white oak will make more heat
than cord and third of maple. In
any event, it is great convenience to
know the comparative value of the diff
ferent kinds of wood for fuel. Taking
shellbark hickory as the highest stand
ard of forest trees, and calling that 100,
other trees will compare with it for real
volua as follows

a fear seems 10 have taken possession
Of many minds lest by the inventive
genius of man machinery might be pro-
duced capable Of accomplishing SO much
as to remove the necessity for manual
labor, and, as a consequence, lest they
themselves should be unable to gain a
livelihood So widely have these views
been imbibed, even by men of apparent
intelligence of a comparatively high
order, that they have advocated in strong
terms, upon the rostrum and elsewhere,
the desirability of not only banishing
new machinery, but inventors also. This
opposition has made the path of those
who possessed suffciententerprise to lead
them to devise new methods, and new
apparatus to effect the same, not only
unpleasant, but generally unprOftable;
whereas if mankind had been more fully
endowed with wisdom and brotherly
love very different state Of affairs would
have existed.
The cry that "the rich are growing
richer and the poor are growing poorer,
as the result of the introduction of new
machinery is not trne In fact, the use
Of machinery is constantly improving the
condition Of all classes; and the advance
that has been made by the masses to-
ward higher civilization the last half
century Is simply wonderful, and is due
to the development Of the inventive
genius of man. That there is not an
equitable distribution Of the products of
the farm, the mine, and the manufactory
cannot be denied. But where does the
fault lie? Not with the machinery either
Of old or new design.
Let the reader look back with the aid
of proper books of reference to the con-
dition Of things fifty years ago. At that
time it was beginning to dawn upon the
minds of the most progressive that steam
railways were a possibility; but every
thing for the next ten years was in the
crudest possible condition, no more like
the comfortable railways Of to-day than
a two-wheel springless ox-cart is like
modern pleasure carriage. Then travel
was slow and tedious for all classes, rich
or poor Now the rich, and the poor az
well, may trlvel five hundred miles com
fortably in twenty-four hours. Then the
mails we're weeks in going and coming
where days viii now suffice Then tele-
graphs were unknown, but now any one
may send a message to friend hundreds
of miles away for few cents, and get an
answer almost at once, whereas it for
merly required several days if not weeks
for message to go and come These
and hundreds Of other improvements
that have been inaugurated are open to
the use and benefit Of all, and have
greatly lessened the most arduous work
Of the laboring man, while the necessity
for his services is in no wise less now than
formerly. In fact it may be truly said
that the day laborer can now enjoy many
things that the wealthiest men half a
century ago could not obtain. -New
