A CHAT ABOUT GOSSIP.
Ru1.1l Mem Yorker

Some time since Bishop Huntington read
paper ON Talking as a Fine Art, to some
school girls in Syracuse, n. Y, in which he
strongly rebuked the practice of scandalmong-
ering. l give below paragraph from the adj
dress, which is not one whit too severe on this
evil of idle gossip:
II Say to you, weighing my own words,
that you would be less depraved, less savage,
would less disgrace your womanhood, would
be less curse to your kind, and, if God is
rightly revealed to us in His word, and His
Son, would less offend Him by going to see
dogs fight in their kennels at the five points,
or bulls gore horses in SPAIN than by putting
on your bonnet and gloves, and going from
house to house in your neighborhood, assailing
absent acquaintance, dribbling calumny, sow
ing suspicion, planting and watering wretched-
ness stabbing character, and alternating friends
by repeating to one the detraction that you
'heard'' another had spoken. believe that at
the judgmentseat of Christ the prize-fghting-
man will stand no worse than the slanderously
gossiping woman"
Bishop Huntington might have added to that
last sentence ''or man." for | have known
more than one male gossip. 1t is one of the
vices which idleness engenders, and into which
the man or woman with no occupation-with
no large aims or purposes in his life-wil be
apt to fall.

DANGERS OF INSUFFICIENT vENTI-
LATION.
N. @. u. in Scientific .Americo1


One of the great evils of civilization lies in
the crowding together Of large numbers of per-
sons in confined spaces. This is especially the
case with schools and with factories, but is not
limited to those instances. 1t has always been
known that such crowding was unhealthy
but the exact amount of evil resulting is neces-
sarily difficult to estimate.
Very recently Brown-Sequard has proved by
actual chemical analysis that the air expired
by healthy person contains poison, not
microbe, but distinct chemical poison
In factories, as usually arranged, there must
inevitably be much evil done by the hreathine
of other peoples breaths all day long, six days
in the week. Brown-Sequard considers it a
principal cause of consumption.
The only remedy lies in effectual ventilation,
and there can be no doubt that in factories,
schools, and all other places in which many
persons live and work or study in confined
space the ventilation should be much better
than it is. In some factories the air is so bad
that persons unaccustomed to it are rendered
faint. What then, must be the effect ON those
who live in it?
/ would wish, therefore, to appeal urgently
to those who have the direction of schools and
factories to introduce really effective ventila-
ton. They have the health, even the lives, of
large numbers in their charge, and cannot es-
cape this great responsibility.

MIND YOUR OWN CONCERNS.

Mind your own concerns, my friend,
For they are yours alone;
Don't talk about your neighbor's faults,
But strive to mend your own;
Suppose he does not always lead
A truly piOus life;
What matter if he sometimes frets
Or quarrels with his wife?
Don't meddle-let him know, my friend,
Your better nature spurnS
To act the spy on him or his
Just mind your own concerns.
Yes, mind your own concerns, my friend,
And presently you'll find
That all your time is occupied,
And you've quite enough to mind
Why need you care if SnOoks or Spooks
Should wed with Sally Jones
What matter if your neighbor G.,
A half q million owns?
The money is not yours, my friend,
Though golden stores he earns
So do not envy him his wealth,
But mind your own concerns.
Yes, mind your own concerns, my friend.
1t is better plan
Than always to be saying out
The deeds of brother man.
Remember that all persons have,
Though hidden from your view,
Thoughts that to them of right belong,
And not at all to you;
And also bear in mind, my friend,
"A generous nature warns
No secret from neighbor's breast
So mind your own concerns.

HOW TO LIGHT. A LAMP WITH A
SNOWFALL AND THE LIKE.

The National Educator gives the following
three curious experiments, which may not be
new to the professional chemist, but will be of
interest to the chemist student.
When q small piece of potassium, the size of
a half grain of corn is dropped into tumbler-
full of water, some of the oxygen of the water
leaves its hydrogen, owing to the intense heat
which the chemical action produces, and COM
bines with the metallic potassium causing a
violet blush flame. When the piece of potas-
stun is placed ON the wick of a coal oil or al
cohol lamp, the flame produced by touching the
potassium with bit of snow or ice or a drop
of water will infame it.
Fire under water can be produced by placing
a small piece of phosphorus in conically
shaped glass filled with water and some crys-
tai of chlorate of potash covering the phos-
phorus, and then pouring through a long tube
funnel, or glass tube, a few drops of sulphur
ic acid down ON the mixture at the bottom of
the glass. Tongues of flame can be seen flash
ing up through the water. The intense chem
ical action produces sufficient heat to infiame
the phosphorus under the water. Where there
is sufficient heat and oxygen fire will burn,
whether in air or water.
The force of steam boiler explosions can be
illustrated by getting tube made by tin
smith, say half an inch in diameter, and closed
at one end. Put piece of ice the size of a
cherry or half teaspoonful of water, into the
tube and cork the open end tightly Suspend
the tube over a flame, so that the ice meltS and
is converted into steam. The cork will be
forced out with loud explosion. Candle
bombs held over flame will explode in a sim
liar manner. Water will produce LOO times
its volume of steam.

they would appear in low-cut corsage

soldiers of brilliant promise, but they
were both killed in battle, sustaining
their widely differing sentiments. Their

home and buried them on the old farm,
erecting between their graves a marble
slab bearing the touching inscription,

That one wore gray, and one wore blue

The naughty gestures made to suit

Their favorite mounts see them vault
And vanish on my aged sight,

Then crept an age of dragging days,
With vague, conflicting rumor rife,
Until along our dust-hung ways
The tidings came that chilled my life;

Where heavy fell the heavy fight
