The state of Pennsylvania has ten
million of its loan falling due next year,
and the Legislature is engaged framing
an act for funding it ut a lower rate of
interest. We do not see why We may not
follow the example Of the United States
and offer it to the old holders at three and
a half per cent interest. The state ought
to lie able to borrow at that rate
on a ten years loan, and at four per cent
ON loan payable at pleasure. The leg
islative committee is thinking, we hear,
of authorizing new loan to he bid for
at not exceeding four per cent. two and
a-half millions Of which will he payable
in annual parts for Il period of ten
years and the balance in thirty years.
But there should be no difficulty in de-
terming at what rate of interest Penn
sylvaniania can now borrow for one and
ten and thirty years and when that is
ascertained no doubt the holders OF the
old loan will accept the deduction and
the change can he made without commits
sion to brokers, or profit to syndicate.

Impure Air and Disease.


DR.. j. Ward, health-officer of an Eng
lish sanitary district of considerable ex-
tent and population, has given the SGni-
tGry Record an account of a large num-
ber of instances which have come under
his immediate observation in which inn
pure air, arising either from defective
ventilation or noxious surroundings, has
appeared to be directly associated with
diseases of the lungs or other organs.
Of eight fatal cases of pneumonia occur
ring within year among children and
persons in middle life, in all but one the
air was defiled by some neighboring
source of filth. In about ninety fatal
case of diseases of the respiratory or
gans, other than pulmonary consump-
ton, most of which are accute or SUBJ
accute, undoubted defects of ventilation
existed. In some cases there was no
fireplace or air exit in the room; in
some such opening, where it had ex-
listed, had been closed tight; in some
the bed, with many in it, was in q close
corner; in others the air was defiled by
some neighboring household orfarm nui-
sance. Similar defects were observed
in nearly all of thirty cases of disorders
of the lungs following whooping- cough
in sixteen of which last, 's filth infiu-
ence from Immediately contagious byre,
pig-styes, stables, water-closet, or sew
er, was noticed" The sanitary investi-
cation of the interior and surroundings
Of houses where inflammatory affections
of the brain have occurred has forced
upon DIR. Ward the conclusion that dis
eases of this class are also frequently,
and, 1t may be inferred, causatively, as
sociated with similar insanitary condi-
tions. In twenty-eight fatal cases ot
this nature, seventeen cases of tubercu-
lar meningitis, and twenty-five cases OF
commissions in children, the air was eth.
er confined or polluted. DIR. Ward
draws from these observations the obvi-
Gus lesson that it should be the aim OF
sanitary administration. to secure for
each habitable room, especially in the
crowded cottages of the poorer classes,
some suitable provision for a constant
change of air. Particularly should care
be taken in fixing the position of the
bed so that it shall not be in corner
remote from the influence of the door,
window, and Fireplace, but should be
near some opening through which a
constant circulation may be relied upon.
In Transforming old houses, the provi-
sion of fresh air, now neglected and too
often prevented in the arrangement OF
partitions, should be carefully looked
after-else the sanitary condition of the
house may be made worse than it was
hefore

Coughlfne, of Somerville, Ma s., is so
remarkable that we beg to ask for it the
attension of our readers. He saws: tsIn

severe cough. soon began to lose my

had laid the invalid, and prepared to

1t seems strange that anyone will suf-
fer many arrangements brought on by
an impure condition of the blood, when
Scoville's Blood and Liver syrup will
restore perfect health to the physical
organization. 1t is indeed strengthen
ing syrup, pleasant TO take, and has
proven itself to I've the best blood puri-
fier ever discovered, effectually curing
Scrofula, Syphilitic disorders, Weakness
of the Kidneys, all nervous disorders
and Debility. 1t corrects indigestion.
1t makes the old feel young, and the
Young feel gay; and will invariably
drive out of the system the many ills
that human flesh is heir to. A single
bottle will prove to you its merits as a
health renewer, for it acts like a charm,
especially when the complaint is of an
exhaustive nature, having a tendency
to lessen the natural vigor of the brain

A Place for Everything and Everything
In Its Place.

Experience shows us that unless the
habit of being orderly is cultivated in
youth it never will be ours in mature
years. The disorderly girl may be sub
ject to spasmodic fits of tidiness, and at
such times her closets, bureau drawers
and boxes will be put in order, but as
these attack are but temporary they are
soon over and the old way fallen into
again. Such a girl may be good and
clever in many respects, but her want
of order and system, besides being an
Inconvenience to herself, will also be,
more or less, a trial to those about her.
Girlhood is the time when habits are
formed, and if an impulse to be orderly
is followed then, it will grow upon us
until it will become q second nature, and
disorder will be pain to u.s.
II, however, during these years we are
careless, put things in. their proper
places if it is, convenient, and if not
leave them around for some member OF
the household to pick up and put away
for US, we are doing ourselves an injury
which, IL not apparent now, will be when
we have reached womanhood.
Some girls make their things last so
much longer than others, and we won
der sometimes by what magic they can
be worn so long without looking shabby.
The reason is, that they take good care
of them. Their dresses are brushed
carefully and the slightest spot upon
them removed before hanging them
away, ribbons and laces are folded and
laid away with care, gloves are mended
when the tiniest hole shows itself, but
ton lost from shoe is restored immedi-
ately, and "the stitch in time" keeps
many q wardrobe looking fresh an dnew,
which otherwise would become old and
worn out if neglected from time to time.
Girls! don't give way to self-indulgence
and laziness in regard to your own per-
sonal belongings. II you have desire
to leave things around, or to put off
mending garment, because you don't
feel like being tidy at the time, or in a
mood for mending, don't yield to it,
for every time you do you are strength
ening the impulse to be disorderly, and
are taking the steps that will influence
your character for the whole of your fu-
ture ife.-Christidn at Work.
