CARRYING OFF FOUL AIR.
In the same air chamber in winter the air
from above is heated by huge battery of
boilers, and this hot air ascends throughout
the building, finding egress through the
window-sill vents. So successful has it been
in beating the great, seven-story structure
that not for four years has a fire been main
tanned in any of the open CRATES that are in
all the wards. These CRATES, therefore, serve
only as ornaments.
In the floor Of each ward of the Homeo-
pathic Hospital there are number of iron
grated openings, exactly similar to heat
registers. Through these all the foul air
escapes. 1t is drawn into them by suction,

ATHLETIC GHOSTS.
After Abandoning Table. Tipping They Have
Taken TO Stones Throwing.

After Abandoning Table. Tipping They Have
Taken TO Stone. Throwing.
Paris Edition New York Herald.l
There has been for some years an obvious
neglect of athletic sports among ghosts
Formerly the ghosts favorite amusement
consisted in upsetting beds containing timid
people and in throwing heavy articles, in
cluding bricks and stones. Of late years
the ghosts have wholly abandoned these
sports, and have devoted themselves to liter
ature, public speaking and quiet, social
games Of table-tipping aud levitation.
But now we are apparently about to wit
ness a great athletic revival among the
ghosts. They have begun by establishing a
range for throwing stones at a mark in the
grounds OF Mr.. Piddock, Of Clapham. The
mark is rather large one. being Mr.. Pid-
docks house, but they are rapidly acquiring
so much skill that they seldom tail to hit it,
and frequently make the bull's-eyes on the
drawing room windows. In time they will
choose q smaller mark, and will doubtless
strive to hit Mr.. Piddock as he moves across
his lawn.
Every intelligent man. 50 long as some
other mans house is selected as a mark,
will be pleased at this revival of ghostly
athletics. It is much better than table
tipping and infinitely superior to ghostly
literature.

WRITTEN FOR THE DISPATCH
PART I.


In the year 1S40 1 sailed in fine brig
named the Laughing Creole for passage to
Kingston, Jamaica, where lived an uncle Of
mine who had been for many years estao-
lished there as a merchant. I had not set
eyes on him since I was 6 years old, but in
writing to ask me to visit him he talked as
though he intended should be his heir,
and in this there lay encouragement enough
to me to attempt the voyage.
In those days there were no great steam
boats trading in the Antilles. The West
India merchantmen was still afoat, but her
sailings were at intervals not always con-
venient, and people who were unwilling to
lose time were glad to take the first vessel
that offered. Thus it happened that I was
passenger aboard the Laughing Creole
the only passenger, as it CHANGED, though
there was accommodation for three or four
others.
The captain was asquare, mahogany faced
man of the true deep sea type; his large,
damp. blue eyes seemed to strain in their
sockets as he rolled them along the horizon
or directed them at his sails; his teeth were
black with the tobacco he incessantly
chewed, and his attire was always the same
wet or dry, hot or cold-a long pilot cloth
coat. a rusty beaver, very large at the crown
and the sides dandily curled up; an immense
cravat or neckcloth, wound round and round
his throat, and so stiffening him about the
neck that he was unable to move his head
without turning the rest of his body with 1t.
He had built the Laughing Creole and
owned her, and had not been long on
board before ne informed me that the cargo
in her was entirely his own venture. With
him was what is called an Only Mate-a
slow and heavy man belonging to South
Shields, but as fine sailor as the coal trade
conld breed or as could hail from part of
the coast which for generations has produced
the noblest race OF seamen that ever bled
under the white flag or toiled under the red.
The captains name was Larkins; ms
mates Wharrier. The carpenter OF the brig
acted as second mate and relieved Wharr1er

SEEMS LIKE SUICIDE.
The Freak of n Peculiar Mountain Bird
That Hunts Food In the Water.

The Freak of Peculiar Mountain Bird
That Hunts Food In the Water.
Away up on the mountain side is the
natural home of the water ousel, the
strangest of all strange birds. You seldom
see more than one of them at time. They
are OF dark blue color, and are easily
recognized by a peculiar, quick, jerking
motion which they never seem to tire of
And as they fit from rock to rock they are
continually bobbing up and down, perform
ing such polite little courtesy as would
make you smile to see it.
Owing to their peculiar habits and the
isolated spots they select to build their nests
no one but the most ardent sportsmen and
naturalists succeed in finding them. Hence
a water ousePs nest with two of their eggs
in it has a commercial value among nest
collectors offs $25. They always build their
nests just back of some waterfall or under
some overhanging bank, where they have to
90 through or under the water to get 70 it.
Another strange habit of this bird is the
deliberate habit in which they appear to
commit suicide. They will start slowly,
very slowly, to wade right down into the
water until they disappear from view, but
if the water is clear, and you have a sharp
eve, you can still see their little dark forms
clinging to the bottom in search of their
morning repast, which consists of peri.
wrinkles.

does not suffer from typbus or typhoid fever
and if the temperature OF patient, who ex
hibits the general signs of pneumonia, never
reaches 101o7, it is certain that there is no soft
intiltration in the lungs.
In typhoid fever. a temperature which does not
exceed on any evening 10So s. indicates prob
able mild course of fever. A temperature of
lU2o in the evening or 104o in the morning shows
that the attack is a severe one, and forebodes
danger during the third week.
A SURE SIGN.
On the other hand, temperature of 10lo. y
and below, in the morning, indicates very
mild attack, or the commenoement of conva-
lesence. In pneumonia a temperature of l04o
and upward indicates severe attack. In acute
rheumatism q temperature of 104o is always an
alarming symptom. In a case of laundice
otherwise mild, an increase of temperature in
dicates a pernicious turn. In tuberculosis. an
increase of temperature shows that the dis
ease is advancing and that untoward compli-
cations are setting in. In short, fever tenn
perature of l04o to 105o in any disease indicates
that its progress is not checked, and that COM
plications may still occur.
All the hospitals in Pittsburg and ALLIE
gheny have admirable arrangements for ven-
tilation. In fact few cities in the country
can compare with them. L. E. SToFIEL.

any season of the year good ventilation is
most important in large hospital, but par
tlcularly SO in summer. In the erection of
this building care was taken along sanitary
lines, and our fine system of warming, cool
ing and ventilating was copied from the best
hospitals of London"
The superintendent then showed me
through the building, and explained the
ventilating apparatus. Ventilation consists
Of two operations-the removal of foul air,
and the Introduction OF fresh air. To what
nicely this double operation must be
brought in hospital can be realized by
rehecting a moment on the unhealthy sur
roundings of the average sick-room.
EIcETY OF THE TASK.
The evil effects on q perfectly healthy
man or woman of breathing and rebreath-
ing the air OF an illy-yentilated bedroom
are well known. It poisons the lungs. It
has been estimated that the respiration of
one human being vitiates hourly about 500
cubic feet OF air. How much worse is it in
the ward Of q hospital where % or 30 persons
are prostrsted with disease? Their breath is
almost poisonous ITSELF Every exhalation
contains an undue amount of watery vspor
and minute quantities of animal matter,
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1890-08-24

with an artificial wind. 1t fairly reeks
with poison. Only one thing can surpass it
in the building in uncanniness. That is
the dead room, or operating hall.
The whitecapped lady nurses who fit
throughout the building everywhere
appear like sentinel angels against
the somber background of suffering
that hospital always presents.
One spot, it is true, seemed bright enough
without them. That was the children's
ward. But everywhere else-in the fever
ward, the convalescents' ward, the female
ward-their presence was necessary to add
anything like life among the dying. I
watched them for long time, and saw
that of all their Observation-Disclosures med
icines, smoothing rumpled beds, wetting
wounds, washing feverish faces, or singing
lullabies to still some wild fancy Of de-
lirium-of all these
THAT OF FANNIEG
seemed to bring quiet easier, and make the
rest of the sick person more gentle.
"Yet the fluctuations of temperature in
sick man or woman Is one Of our most valu-
able guides" said hospital nurse to me on
one occasion. And going to her library she
took down medical book and pointing to

EXPANDING THE BRAIN.

Paris Doctor Has Found Way 20 Make
Statesmen of Idiots.
Paris Edition New York Herald.l
A Parisian surgeon has discovered new
method of developing the brain. Noticing
that the head of an idiotic little girl was ex-
tremely small he removed part of the skull
in order to give the brain room to expand.
1t duly expanded, and the girl is now quite
as intelligent as there is any real necessity
that girl should be. This successful e1-
pertinent not only shows how idiocy may be
cured, but it also seems to establish the fact
that mans intelligence varies as the size
of his brain.
If, therefore, any man wishes to increase
his brain power all he has to do is to have,
say, half OF his skull removed. General
Boulanger might be converted into new
Napoleon by simply removing his skull and
by expanding the brain artifcially. The
discovery is one which promises to be of
great utility, and can hardly fail to make
the discoverer wonderfully popular in
"idiotic" circles.

If You Lie Still and Let the Beast Have Its
Fill You Are All Right.
New York SUM-
The cause Of the irritation from a mos
quito's bite was for long time a subject Of
discussion and frequently of dispute. ''The
secret was first discovered" says Prof. Ma
closkie, "by the observation of fine droplets
of yellow, oily looking fluid escaping from
the apex of the hypopharynx."
"It has been demonstrated in many in
stances" comments Mrs. Aaron, shat if
tine female be allowed to drink her fill and
to fy away unmolested the effect of the
poison is very much reduced; in some cases
entirely so. 1t is the interrupted perform
ance which produces the greatest itching.
This seems to prove that, if allowed to finish
her meal undisturbed, the mosquito will
pump back the venimo salivary secretion,
whereas quick withdrawal of the tube re-
suits in the consequent abandonment of this
irritating fluid to be source Of annoyance
in the flesh"

than q cheap, trifing and homely-looking
palm-leaf fan. In the last annual report of
the trustees of the Homeopathic Hospital on
Second avenue several pages are filled with
the printed list of donations made by chari-
table men and women. There you will read
ofjellies, that were given to entice back the
weak appetite; of flowers and books to make
irksome hours pleasant; clothes to fit out
the convalescent for his coming departure;
provisions and other hospital supplies in
every variety.
LUXURY OF A FAN.
And opposite the name of the wife of a

1t don't sound very important, but in that
bundle of palm-leafs there was as much
solid comfort and luxury as in all the jellies,
cordials and flowers that could be placed be-
fore a sick man.
A gentleman who had recovered from q
long illness once told me the most horrible
experience he had during his siege. I
asked him what the most pleasant thing
was he could recall of those weary months
in bed. He smiled as he said: Gas L think
over it all now, nothing is more pleasant to
recall than the days and nights when, with
my face brilliant with fever, ewes restless,
head never still, every muscle strained and
rigid, nv brain q living hell-when,
through all these agonies, 1 suddenly saw a
hand reach out over me- and a great, big
palm-leaf fan wave slowly to and fro over
my brow.
HOT WEATHER IN HOSPITALS.
STEADY, lingering, cool, delicious, heav.
euly draughts of air played around me.
They dried the beads of sweat from my
flesh, stilled the torment within my head,
and carried me gradually into a state of
languor that was on the next half acre to
Paradise. The regular motion of the fan
became lullaby to my distorted ewes, and
remember how used to get fearful that il
should suddenly stop, and the hand of the
nurse be withdrawn, while l was yet una
BILE to speak. But as l steslthfully watched
for any cessation of the motion, would
invariably fall asleep. The fanning would
go on all the time, and I could yet write
some OF the sweet dreams had under the
influence of its soothing effects"
