endured when the air is as dry as possible, but that even 1O40 is likely to be fatal in an atmosphere saturated with moisture. It is considered certain that men cannot become accustomed to stand for any considerable time higher temperature than from 145' to 1e5', even when they keep perfectly still and are in quite pure air.
 The figures showing the production of pig iron indicate that the southern States are for ging to the front, although Pennsylvania still holds an easy lead, having produced last year 2, ,445, 496 tons of the entire 4, 4,529, ,S69 tons produced in this country. Ohio comes next in the list of iron producing States with 553, ,963 tons, Illinois third with 327, ,977 tons and Alabama fourth with 227 ,43S tons. The next highest producing States are Virginia, Tennessee, New York and Michigan, in the order named. While recognizing that the South is making rapid advances the Philadel phia Times thinks that Pennsylvania, with it's abundant coal and it's newly util- ized store of natural gas, is sure, however, to be the great pig iron center for an indefinite period. The fuel and ore and the market are so conveniently near each other in the Keystone State that no probable competitors are seriously to be feared"
 At recent meeting of the Boston Society of Natural History the president, MT. s. H. Scudder offered some remarks on the 'tMesozoic cockroaches." He made reference to former statement made by him concern ing the paleozoie cockroaches. A recent contribution of fossils from England had en- abled him to make 8 comparative study of those of the mesozoic rocks. His investiga- tions were pursued chiefly by study of the fore wings. His conclusion was that the mesozoic cockroaches were but about half the size OF the average of the paleozoic. The cockroach of to-day averages larger than the mesozoics, but smaller than the paleozoics The mesozoics more nearly resemble those of to-day in other respects. The paleozoics had always five veins in their wings. The modern insect has at least one less than that He said that at the present time there are known about 500 species of cockroaches One half the paleozoic insects which have been found are cockroaches

arriving here that the most eminent citizens smell like cracked lamp, and moro coal oil is used here for bathing purposes than for il- Illumination. Kerosene seems to defect the redbug's intellect from his connubial and mining pursuits, and induce him to back out to light and judgment. Unless kerosene is brought to bear this retrograde idea never works up the census with an alacrity and cheerfulness worthy of emulation. He is capable of going for year without food or shelter, but when offered hospitality works it for all it is worth. A volume might be written about the redbug and still leave his energies half unsung. He is not done justice by anyone. A few fluent takers here have tried to do him justice in the interests of kerosene baths. but have failed. The sub feet is too vast.

HOW TO WARM ROOMS.
The Draught That Comes From the Cold Side of window.
 Gazefta


 Frequently the chilly feeling that one ex- periences from the windowward side one sits in room is caused, not by current of cold air sitting from the window to the fire, but by the coldness of the window itself. For this latter, being kept at low tempera- ture by contact with the outside air, draws the heat from the body, rather the heat radiates from the body to the window-the temperature of the air in between making no difference to the transference, in accordance with a well known property of radiant heat. For instance, the air in room may be quite hot, and yet large window, however air tight, will make itself .unpleasantly felt on cold day, just as on board ship the propin- quity of an iceberg is announced by lower ing of temperature. A screen interposed between the window and anyone exposed to it's malign influence will often afford great relief, and one reason why rooms so ire quently feel more comfortable in the evening is that the cold glass is effectually shut of behind the closely-drawn curtains and blinds. In countries where the winters are habitually severe the advent of frost is usu- ally the signal for the fixing up of inner windows. the layer of air between these and the outer ones forming an excellent barrier to the escape of heat owing to its low ductiye power. Cold walls also induce sense of chilliness, but if they are properly built there should be no difficulty in keeping them warm on the inside.
 The experiment has sometimes been tried of warming rooms by means of hot air only, but the result has never been good and for this reason-that in order to warm the walls to the requisite degree the air must be far hotter than is healthy or agreeable for breathing. In fact the principle is wrong; the air should not warm the walls, but the walls should warm the air. An open fire acts in this latter way The rays of heat pass through the air without heating it and produce no effect till they impinge on the walls, furniture and carpet of the room These. being thus gently warmed. communi- cate their heat by contact to the air about them, and in this way, while the objects in the room are raised to a sufficient tempera- ture, the air is not rendered unpleasant by being overloaded. We see then that our favorite open fires have much to recom- mend them, whatever may be said about their wastefulness, and as regards health and comfort they are much better than close stoves, which, though they radiate their warmth also heat the air in contact with them, and are apt to do so to excess.

 Interesting.

For a week, beginning Mon- day, the Ist of February, we shall devote extra space in our store to the display of Linens and Made-up Underwear. Of the latter we have bought very largely and on very advantage ous terms, and we would like to have the opportunity to con- vince those who have not been in the habit of buying ready made garments, that they can be bought at very nearly the cost of the materials and noth- ing sacrificed in the quality of the work. We also undertake to agreeably surprise those who have already given up the mak- ing of their underwear by the cheapness of our new stock. The prices will be less than Sixth Avenue prices about which we so often hear. In fact the manufacturer said to us that if we sold the goods as we said we would ''it would raise the biggest racket ever was. Well-we will raise it.
 In regard to Linens. Our special early importations are nearly all received. The goods are splendid. he value excel lent. Towels, Table Linen, Napkins, and all kinds of Ma pery from the best Scotch, Irish and German makers. Our inti. mate and close connection with these foreign markets enables us to present the goods at prices free from intermediate profits, and to offer to our customers all that the middiemen were wont to claim. Please do us the f. vor of an early examination.

VOTERS, ATTENTION.

AT the last regular session, our Wis
consin Legislature decided to submit to
the voters of the state "a bill which reads,
Women shall have the right to vote on
all matters pertaining to schools. This
bill is to be lost or carried at the coming
November election. Twelve states and
three territories have tested the value of
women's help in the management OF
schools. And from all these come the
united testimony that the extending of
the mother home influence in the
schools has vastly improved the whole
tone and management of education.
Therefore, Mothers who always find
time to attend to the interests Of their
children ought to be invested with the
right to exercise this natural interest,
and thus be clothed with the power as
well as the responsibility.
And farther, as one-half our scholars
are girls, and more than three-fourths of
our teachers are women, and all women
who own property are taxed equally
with men for the support ofschools, it is
but simple justice that they be granted
the privilege of saying how this money
shall be disbursed. And as Wisconsin
claims to be fully equal to any of her
sister states in educational facilities, she
should not lag behind in this progressive
movement. We, the Women of Wiscon-
sin, submit the matter for your candid
consideration, and hope to prove by your
votes, at the coming election, that the
Men of Wisconsin are as wide-awake to
the best interests of the state as their
representatives in the legislature.

Y. NJ. C. A.

The third meeting of the Kenosha Y.
M. G. A.. was held at the Grant House
on Tuesday evening. President Emory
L. Grant presided, and H. r. Baldwin
acted as Secretary.
The committee appointed to secure
rooms reported having arranged for
four rooms in the second story of the
building occupied by the First National
Bank, corner Main street and Market
square. There will be a reading room,
20x27 feet: q conversation and amuse-
ment room, 12x18 feet a parlor, 15x1G
feet ); and hall, 20x40 feet. This hall
it is intended to furnish as gymnasium
with movable apparatus, and to use il
for religious services on the Sabbath.
The stairway and hall leading to the
rooms are to be papered and painted in
good style, and attractive quarters open
ed for our young men.
The membership dues Of the Y. NJ. G
A. were fixed at 50 per year, payable ii
advance. AS there is no initiation fees
and no taxes, this is the whole expense
for membership, and is very reasonable
considering the privileges afforded. The
larger part of the expenses of the asso
citation are never secured from thi:
source, but from annual subscriptions
in order to extend the privileges t,
young men of moderate means as wei
as those more favored. The whole ex
pense for the first year, including fitting
and furnishing the rooms, salary of Sec
rotary, reading matter, fuel, rent, lights
&C., is calculated at 1900. After tn

The work will be literally illustrated
with views of many of the finest city anC

business blocks. This will form an at
iractive feature of the work, and will re
present in an appropriate manner the

two counties.
From the foregoing it will be seen that
the proposed atlas will prove work oil
great practical value to all classes Of
citizens, and that is one that should en-.
list the interest and hearty support Of
the general public. No pains viii be
spared to make the work complete and
reliable. So many changes have occur
ed, and Improvements been made within
the counties of Racine and Kenosha
since the last map was published, that the
publication ofthe proposed atlas is pub
lie necessity.
This enterprise involves a large ex-
penditure of time and money, and the
publishers have entered upon it trusting
that the citizens of these counties will
appreciate the importance of the under
taking, and will give it the substantial
support it deserves. The Atlas is to be
published by I'll. o. Brown & Co., of Chi
cago. under the management of E. NJ.

efforts to support herself and children
after the failure of her husband, Herbert
c. Aver, as a member of the non firm
of John V. Ayers Sons, Monday began
divorce proceedings in the Supreme
Court, Chicago, Oh the ground of deser-
ton. They were married Oct. 6, 1866,
and two children are living as result
of the union, Harriet, aged 19, and Mar
garet, aged 10 years. Both are living
with their mother. In October, 1883,
Mr.. Aver informed his wife that he was
about to leave the city temporarily and
sojourn in Europe for business purposes.
He promised to furnish support for his
family during his absence, and said that
he had instructed his Chicago agent to
pay his wife $500 per month for that
purpose. On the contrary, she says that
she has never received a dollar from
him, and that she has been, ever since
he left, compelled to support the family
from her own resources and earnings,
although she has repeatedly written to
him requesting a contribution. She
asks, besides a divorce, the exclusive
custody and control of the children
