where life has been recalled, as it were, af-

only after hours of apparently truitless la

within an hour or so after submersion, the

To Our Readers.

Aiming, as we do, to publish a nesospsper,
II Is In accordance with this determination
that we call the attention of our readers to
facts connected with one of the largest facto-
ries employing skilled labor in this country.
Last February, dispatches were sent from
st. Louis to the press everywhere that the
molders employed by the Excelsior Manu-
featuring Co., so well and favorably known
as the makers of the CHARTER OAK STOVES
and RANGES, had made demands that the
Company could not comply with. The re-
suit was that The works were curtailed in
their production, and the officers obliged to
look about them for different class of labor.
Now, after nearly four months, during
which time the Company has been con-
stantly adding to the small force who stood
by them from the first, Mr.. Geo. ID. Dana,
the Secretary, reports that q full force of ex-
cellent men have been obtained. and that the
works are running sufficiently fulI-handed
to enable them to fill all orders with even
more carefully constructed goods than be-
fore.
We are pleased to chronicle the above, and
also that the molders have admitted defeat,
their places having been filed with strictly
nom Union men.
Those Of our readers who knoU what the
CHARTER OAK STOVE is will rejoice to hear
that its makers have been successful in over
coming what threatened to be serious inter-
ruption to their business, and those who
have been unable for few weeks to obtain
them will also rejoice, for their wants can
now be promptly met. And we would say
to all who have not yet examined them, do
so at once, and you'll never regret 1t.
The Colfax chronicle. [volume] (Colfax, Grant Parish, La.) 1877-1981, 1881-07-23

What about it? Well, q good many
things might be said. 1t ought to be a
place for quiet and refreshing sleep.
But it is not such a place. Restless
tossings with troubled dreams are
there. Morning after morning finds
the sleeper weary, listless and dumpish.
He wonders why it is so, and we
wonder too. But our wonder is that he
does not make it matter of thought,
and learn how to sleep as he should.
When anything is wrong with us there
is cause for it. AS rule. that cause
is not so obscure as to require the aid
of modern scientist, with all his jar
gon of incomprehensible technicalities
covering his still more incomprehensi-
BILE ideas, or want OF ideas, toferret il out.
To exercise the demon of restlessness
is not bedroom work alone. He who
seeks the comfort of sound, refreshing
sleep must properly control his habits
by day as well as BY night. a sis
So much may be said about sleep in
general that the bedroom is in dam
ger of being forgotten. After all, that
particular bedroom does not differ ma
terially from MANY others of this kind.
Twelve feet long. ten feet wide and seven
feet six inches high, it has capacity of
nine hundred cubic feet 1t has u door
opening into the nextroom and another
INTO the hall leading to the stairway
and hall below. One large window,
with sash supported by pulleys and
weights affords, or ought TO afford. air
and light from out doors. The fourth
wall is solid. The bed stands in corner,
with the head to this wall. Two walls
confine the exhaled air about the head
of the sleeper. The bed rests on springs.
with mattress and feathers above. The
breath Of the sleeper is doubly foul from
late and full suppers, and from ilcera-
ton of the respiratory membrane,
caused by chronic catarrh. In such a
case good ventilation is more than usual
a necessity. Is it attended to? Take q
peep at that room. Doors closed--win-
dows carefully closed to keep out night
air. Any good work on ventilation can
be consulted to ascertain how long nine
hundred cubic feet of air will supply
respiratory material in such a room for
one occupant. And yet that is nice
bedroom, genteelly furnished. If good
sleeping is not done there the failure is
less chargeable to the room than to its
management. How many cases of the
kind have you met with, readerp-J S.
