Eallacies About Night Air.

An extraordinary fallacy is the
dread of night air. What air can We
breathe at night but night air? The
choice is between pure night air from
without and foul air from within.
Most people prefer the latter-an un-
accountable choice What will they
say if it is proved to be true that fully
one-half of all the diseases we suffer
from are occasioned by people sleeping
with their windows shut. An open
window most nights in the year can
never hurt any one. In great cities
night air is often the best and purest
to be had in twenty-four hours. One
could better understand shutting the
windows in towns during the day than
during the night for the sake OF the
sick. The absence of smoke, the quiet,
all tend to make the night air the best
time for airing the patient Always
air your room, then, from the outside,
if possible. Windows are made to
open, doors are made to shut-a truth
which seems extremely difficult OF ap-
prehension Every room must be aired
from without, every passage from
within. n.-Sanitary World.
