That the mass Of our people never

That the mass Of our people never
heed The repeated warnings uttered
by the scientific world upon the dan
gers of improper ventilation, is dem
onstrated by the regular return of
diphtheria and other kindred diseases
in epidemic form. That these warn
ings should be needed however by all
who have the management OF large
public buildings ought to be equally
apparent; and while we do not hope
to accomplish what others have failed
to do, we desire to arrest the atten-
ton of our readers and turn it for a
moment to this subject. To make ex-
pieit what we have to say let us take
into consideration some of the public
halls of River Falls and endeavor to
determine when filed with people how
long before the air becomes as unfit
to breathe, as water, in which we
battle the entire body, Is unfit to
drink. DIR. Reid, an eminent authori-
ty on such subjects, estimates that
one person in one minute vitiates thir-
tv cubic feet of air. AT this rate in
three or four minutes from the time a
full audience is seated in either the
Congregational or Methodist church,
if closed, not one cubic inch of air re-
mains which is not loaded with i'm
pure and poisonous secretions. In
other words the entire body of air
should be changed every three min
utes. In Brackets Hall when full
and closed no air is left fit to breathe
at the end of two minutes. In none
of the cases alluded to is it possible to
effect this by single open window.
When speakers, naturally robust, find
themselves exhausted, and when
men are yawning, and women have
| headaches, and lamps burn dimly from
want of pure oxygen should not some
one open the windowsl

The attendants at the Congregations
al church on Sunday must have rea-
son to be grateful for the fact that
we live in land of long winters.
For such only could have proper APP
probation of the beautiful display of
flowers which adorned the pulpit and
rostrum, giving evidence of the skill
and taste as well as the assiduous eff
forts of the ladies of the decorative
committee. Immediately in front of
the pastor's desk rose pyramid of
floral growth consisting OF mass of
callas bearing their pure chalices,
surrounded by profusion of pink,
red and scarlet geraniums and
fragrant heliotropes, the whole forming
rare treat to the eyes that for
months have gaZed on snow and ice.
At the right and left stood similar
floral pyramids, while at the organ
wreath of rich and variegated foli-
age plants reminded one that autumn
as well as spring was rich in beautiful
vegetation. Over the windows back
of the pulpit two Madeira vines tralled
their shining leaves while another en-
twined itself about the organ. The
morning discourse was upon the "Ten
Appearances of Christ after the Res.
direction In the evening a concert
exercise of sacred reading and song,
lead by Rev. Rogers, Will Armstrong,
Miss l.. E. Foote, Miss Agnes Edsall
and Miss Winopa Merrick drew out an
audience of nearly 400 persons.

From the edition of Messrs. Geo. p.
RoWell & Co.'S American Newspaper
Directory, now in press, it appears
that the newspapers and periodicals of
all kinds at presentissu in the Unit
ed States and Canada reach a grand
total of Is, 402 This is net gain of
precisely eco during the last twelve
months, and an increase of 5,61S over
the total number published just ten
years since. The increase in 1874
over the total fer 1873 was 493. Dur
ing the past year the dailes have in
creased from I,l3S to 1854, the week
lies from 9,062 to HOOPS; and the
monthlies from 1,091 to I,499. The
greatest increase is in the Western
States. Illinois, for instance, now
shows 1000 papers in place of last
years total of 904, while Missouri is
sues 604 instead of 523 reported i'm
1888. Other leading Western States
also exhibit great percentage of in
crease. The total number of papers
in New York State is ,523, against l.
500 is 1888. Canada has shared in the
general increase.

Business for Ladies.

The opportunities for ladies to find employ
ment that is both suitable and renumerative are
limited; their pay is usually poor compared
with the salaries paid to men in the same lines OF
occupation. But there are some very noted ex-
ceptions; journalism, the drama, music and
platform offer equal advantages to men and
women and there is one occupation in which
women are sometimes more successful than men,
and that is in the management of agencies. In
this line The Queen City Suspender Company,
of Cincinnati o., are offering inducements to
ladies that we think ought to attract attention
They are now manufacturing and introducing
their new stocking Supporters for ladies and
children and their unequaled Skirt Suspenders

ufactured by ladies who have made The wants of
ladies and children q study and they ask us TO
refer them TO some reliable and energetic lady to

think that an earnest solicitation in every
household would meet with u ready response,
and that a determined woman could make a
handsome salary, and have an exclusive agency.
