Gas and Ventilation.

Where gas is used the safety of health SIM
ply depends on securing full, free and perfect
ventilation. The necessity for this precau-
ton is highly apparent when we think of the
impurities which gas sends forth into the at
mosphere, and when we reflect on the evil
which is wrought to health when these i'm
purities are inhaled II We can be assured of
the ventilation of houses in which gas is en-
ployed, there need be no hesitation in en-
ploying this medium for any domestic prr-
pose. In apartments where gas forms the
Illuminating medium there is often decided
lack of precautions in securing the free and
perfect removal of the deleterious products of
gas combustion, Herald of Health.

How Men Die.

If eknow all the methods of approach adopted
nv an enemy we are the better enabled to ward
off the danger and postpone the moment when
surrender becomes inevitable In many instances
the inherent strength of the body suft1ces to
enable it to oppose the tendency toward death.
Many, however, have lost these forces to such an
extent that there is little or no help. In other
cases little aid to the weakened lungs will make
all the difference between sudden death and
many years of useful life. Upon the first symp-
toms of Cough, Cold, or any trouble of the
Throat or Lungs, give that old and wel-known
remedy --Boschee's German Syrup-a careful trial,
