Facts About Furnaces.

In February, 1881, the committee
of hygiene of the Medical Society of
Kings County rendered a report,
which is published in full in the pro-
ceedings of that society, upon ca
tarrh, and whether that disease was
aggravated by residence in cities.
The opinions of large number of
physicians of long experience were
obtained, and their testimony showed
''that though climate and city inhu-
ences have much to do with the crea-
tion of catarrh, yet defective heating,
lighting, airing, summing and drain
age of houses, with improper views
as to air, clothing, bathing and ex-
ercise, are the main causes Indi-
vidual physicians laid special stress
upon individual influences, as "dry

artificial methods of living"
Furnace air per Sc il not so un-
wholesome, but IL is the absence Of
ventilation which makes il 80. IL a
furnace is of sufficient size TO warm
building without opening every
draft and heating the flre-pot red hot,
aud if the fresh air supply is taken
from proper source and not from a
damp area of unclean cellar; and,
furthermore, if there are sufficient
openings at the top of the house TO
allow the impure air that rises TO that
point to escape, and thus canse a
constant circulation of sufficiently
warmed but not overheated air thro'
the house; under these conditions a
furnace is not Objectionable.
Furnaces are often badly located.
1t is easier to force warm air through
furnace due fifty feet tway from
the prevalent wind than ten feet ia
the opposite direction. Hence, the
furnace should be placed nearest the

perfectly sure of it. God has not
led me SO far to forsake me now"
With that confidence he set out IS
his 4errand
The first man Morris approached
was a school teacher receiving a large
salary. AS he was without family
and interested in education, Morris
felt sure of securing a loan. The
gentleman, however, had laid plans
to use all his money, and Morris was
disappointed. Our young friend next
went to a wealthy farmer who some
times loaned money. He was very
sorry, but was not able to help Nor
ris Just then. To another, and still
another went the student, telling his
story and making his request. Only
refusals awaited him. A fainter
heart would have been discouraged,
but. though not knowing what to do
next, Morris felt a strange confidence
in God. A peace was in his soul
like sweet answer to prayer.
81 might as well go home," Morris
said as he stood on the street again
after making the fifth call. He
changed his mind, however, and went
to the post-office A letter was Civ
en- him. ''From Aunt Lucy" he
thought as he glanced at the address.
Aunt Lucy was his mothers only sis
ter, a widow with a small family.
Morris had always been her favorite
nephew, and they mad corresponded
for dozen years. In this way the
aunt had become familiar with Nor
ris' hope and plans. She had long
sympathized with him, and at last
ives able to do him a great service.
When Morris opened the letter a
check greeted his eye. Fifty dollars
from Aunt Lucy-what could it all
mean? Eagerly he read the letter,
81 have been able to lay by a little,
she wrote, "and am very glad that /
can help you. You may have the re-
naming $3.50 as you need it," He
then remembered that a few months
before he had written his aunt Of his
financial condition. but with no hope
of receiving help from her.
''Mother," he exclaimed, "Mother,
the money has come! l knew it
would"
A few weeks later Aunt Lucy sat
in the delighted company on Com
mencement day, very proud and hap
WV, as she listened to her nephew's
Grafton and saw him receive his parch-
ment.
In after years Morris often looked
back upon the way he had been led
from the lap-stone to the pulpit. He
had no difficulty in constructing a
happy and true philosophy of divine
/ Providence and human cooperation
as he thought of how God had been
with him while he was pegging his
way.

High Tide at Gettysburg.

A cloud possessed the hollow field,
The gathering battles smoky shield,
Athwart the gloom the lightning flashed,
And through the cloud some horseman dashed
And from the heights the thunder pealed
Then at the brief command of Lee
Moved out that matchless infantry,
With Pickett leading grandly down,
To rush against the roaring crown,
OF those dread heights of destiny.
Far heard above the angry guns
A cry across the tumult runs
The voice that rang through Shiloh's woods
And Chickamauga's solitudes,
The fierce South cheering on her sons!
All, how the w1thering tempest blew
Against the front of Pcttigrew!
A Kamsin wind that scorched and singed
Like that irfernal flame that fringed
The British squares at Waterloo!
''Once more in Glory's van with me?
Virginia cried to Tennessee;
s'Wc two togeteher, come what may,
Shall stand upon those works to day!"
(The reddest day in history
But who shall break the guards that wait
Before the awful face of Fate?
The tattered standards of the South
Were shrivelcd at the cannon's mouth,
And all her hopes were desolate.
In vain the Tennesseean set
His breast against the bayonet!
In vain Virginia charged and ragged,
A tigress in her wrath uncaged,
Till all the hill was red and wet!
Above the bayonets, mixed and crossed,
Men saw gray gigantic ghost
Receding through the battle-clOud,
And heard across the tempest loud
The death-cry of a nation lost.
The brave went down! Without disgrace
They leaped to Ruins red embrace,
They only heard Fame's thunders wake,
And saw the dazzling sun burst break
In smiles on Glory's bloody face
They fell, who lifted up hand
And bade the sun in heaven to stand!
They smote and fell, who set the bars
Against the progress of the stars,
And stayed the march of Mother-land!
They stood, who saw the future come
On through the fights delirium!
They smote and stood, who held the hope
OF nations on that slippery slope
Amid the cheers of Christendom
God lives! He forged the iron will
That clutched and held that trembling hill,
God lives and reigns! He built and lent
The heights for freedoms battlement
Where floats her flag in triumph still
Fold up the banners! Smelt the gunsi
Love rules. Her gentler purpose runs,
A mighty Mother turns in tears
The pages of her battle years,
Lamenting all her fallen sons
-Ez- Confederate in Century
But what avail her ineXhausted stores,
Her blooming mountains and her sunny shores,
With all the gifts that heaven and earth impart
The smiles nature and the charms of art,
While proud oppression in her valleys relgns,
And tyranny usurps her happy plains?

judge was noted for two things For
