OPEN WINDOWS.
The Question of Sleeping Exposed to the
Night Air Considered.

The Question of Sleeping Exposed to the
Night Air Considered.
This question introduces subject
upon which there is diversity of opin-
ion, both among medical practitioners
and individuals. 81 have had no bad
colds since learned to sleep with my
windows OPEN" remarked a gentle
man in the office of the Medical and
Surgical Reporter, the other day. In
reply. the editor says that the only
''hard colds" he ever suffered from
were contracted by sleeping in rooms
to which the night air had free access.
The editor adds that it is well known
that the bodily temperature sinks
slightly during sleep; the physiological
functions act with diminished activity;
and hence the resistance of the econo-
my to morbific influences is proper
tionately lessened.
But it is also well known that at
night these influences are more potent
and noXious. The air is charged with
greater humidity; miasmatic and ma
larial poisons rise to higher levels, and
extend with greater rapidity; the chill
of the damp night air is penetrating
and dangerous; the carnations from
organic decay are more perceptible.
Against these the sleeper is less pro-
tected than in the daytime. He has d.
vested himself of his wooden external
clothing to put on cotton or linen, and
lies between sheets of the same mate
rial, between which, at the tops and
sides of the bed, the air gains ready
access to his unprotected surfaces. If
he is restless, he renders such access
yet moreeasy.
A greater risk awaits him. A sud-
den fall in temperature at night is no
unusual occurrence. In summer q
thunder gust, in winter shift of the
wind to the north. often reduces the
temperature ten to twenty degrees.
The sleeper is unaware of this. He re-
mains exposed to it with no further
protection than he found agreeable at
the higher temperature until he awakes
chilled and stiff, perhaps with the seeds
OF serious illness already sown.
These are such positive and una
voidable risks that we should counsel
delicate person to be exceedingly eau
tious how he ventured on the plan Of
open windows at night, however
much has been said in its favor by
popular hygienists. Scientific An1eri-
can.

ant Purgative Pellets" (the original Little
Liver Pills) continue to be wonderfully eff
fective in cases of sick and nervous head
ache, constipation, indigestion, rush of

A PHYSICIANS ADVICE.

If you are suffering from general do
bility, nervous prostration, sinking
spells, etc., superinduced by impure
blood, weak kidneys and liver, etc., do not
resort to alcoholic compounds, nor use
remedies that cause too great activity
of the parts affected. II is far more wise
to use mild Alternative like DR.. Guy
Sott'S Yellow Dock and SarSa-
narjlIa, This REMEDY contains nothing
Injurious to the most delicate constitu-
ton, and its use gradually builds up and
strengthens, while diuretic and cathartic
compounds tear down, wear out and de-
stroy.
DR.. GLysOtt's YellotD Dock and SGrsGpG-
TilId restores impaired or lost organic
functions to their normal condition, and
it invariably gives satisfaction to all who
use it.
Do not forget that any druggist will
procure the remedy for you, especially
when they find you will not be persuaded
to try some other preparation on which
they make more money. You will find
its effect most wonderful. Your old
energy will return, your natural force
come back, and you will feel altogether a
new person, full of health, strength and
vigor. Former invalids speak highly of
the preparation, and all acknowledge it
a perfect health restorer, especially in
diseases of a Duplicating nature having
a tendency to poison and thin the blood,
thereby weakening the urinary and di-
gestive organs, and exhausting the
brain and nervous system.
BG~ Worn out and enfeebled con-
situations, suffering from dyspepsia,
impure blood, weak kidneys, nerv-
BUSINESS, etc., can be cured by
using this remedy. Take no other.

the first place it means female mouth.

'The most remarkable accident In
my experience, said Superintendent
Couch in answer to the question, chap
pened on the Newcastle Road to the
track-master He was running down
grade on a handcar and making fast
time. The last glow of twilight was all
that was left to illuminate the scene.
Suddenly the man saw the sheen of the
two cylinder heads of locomotive.
The light falling on their bright surfaces
tended to Disclose them first of all,
Realizing that the engine was close on
him, and that what he did must be done
quickly, he sprang from his handcar
and plunged down high embankment.
He struck on pile of stones and sus-
tanned severe, but not fatal, injuries.
Curious to know what train had been at
that point at that hour, he made in
quiry and found that there was no train.
The cylinder heads that he supposed he
saw were dinner pals. Two section
men Were returning home from work,
walking one on either side of the track
with their dinner-pail in hand, and the
waning light fell on the pals IN such n
manner as to give them the appearance
OF the cylinder heads of an engine. 1t
was curious accident, but it showed
that the track-master had the instinct of
a true railroad man. There was no
time to wait and investigate, for had
he done so and it had proven to be an
engine, it would have been everlast-
ingly too late, "-AShtdbula Ieleqragh.

For centuries It has been contended that cough
medicine to be effective must contain morphia,
opium, or some other equally dangerous drug and
for its base soTle one Of these deadly poisons; A
purely vegetable and at the same time etficacious
cough cure has been considered an impossibility.
The harmful and at times fatal results attending the
use of morphta and opium cough mixtures are of
common occurrence everywhere and in every part of
the Union deaths have according to the testimony of
physicians and coroners, resulted lrom the use of
these dangerous preparations 1t is for this reason
that medical authorities andIeading public men speak
enthusiastically of the Importance and value of the
discovery of Red Star Cough Cure. Governor
McLane and Attorney-G General Roberts, of Maryland ,
Mayor Latrobe and Postmaster Adreon, of Baltimore,
and other wel-known officials of Federal, State and
municipal governments have publicly certified to the
harmlessness and marked efficacy of Red Star
Cough Cure. Every one will find it safe, sure

We, Too, Have Tested 1t.
To the PubIic:

In view of the harmful results which
so frequently attend the use of so-called
patent or proprietary cough syrups con-
tanning morphia, opium and other
equally dangerous drugs, the under
signed, physicians of Maryland, take
pleasure in endorsing the official opin-
ions expressed by the Commissioner of
Health of Baltimore; DR.. Samuel K.
Cox, analytical chemist, of Washington,
and other authorities to the effect that
the RED STAR COUGH CURE is not only
perfectly harmless, but at the same
time an original and most effective
remedy, and that it commends itself
alike for being entirely vegetable-free
from opiates, poisons and narcotics
and for its prompt efficacy, as demon
strated by practical tests.
