RESOLUTIONS.
BY Inspector Wright
Whereas, 1t is OF the most Importance
that the sanitary conditions of the pub
lie school buildings be the best possible:
and
Whereas, These conditions in some of
the public school buildings under the
control Of this Board have been of late
severely criticised; and
Whereas, No casual or hasty eXamina-
ton can be Of any value; therefore,
Be 1t Resolved, That the Board of
Health of the city of st. Paul be, and
hereby is respectfully requested to make
thorough investigation and examina-
ton of the sanitary conditions of all
public school buildings in the city of
st. Paul: that this investigation include
an thermometer test of the quantity of
air entering and leaving the school
rooms per minute through the regular
ventilatlng tlues. and a chemical anal
ySiS of the air taken from full
and from empty school rooms and from
the tlues through which air is conveyed
to such rooms; that it also include a
thorough investigation of all dry and
water closets in the school buildings in
this city as to their efficiency, and any
hangers resulting from their presence
in the easements of the buildings.
Be it Further Resolved, That the re-
port of the special committee of this
Board appointed to investigate the heat
ing and ventilation of the public schools.
with special reference to the expense of
the same, be received when the report
of the Board of Health, called for in
this resolution, is prepared, and that the
two reports be then presented to the
Board and public, jointly, and thus
complete statement of the relative eX-
pense and efficiency of the different
systems in use in tho schools may be
obtained.

worse than yagrant men. OF them it has
been written: "From mean and narrow
surroundings come forth mean and narrow
beings"
The woman, presume, may be meaner
and narrower. One can imagine some
omradeship on the formers part; some
going about in pairs or perhaps gangs,
where sparks of fellowship may ignite and
kindle into some flame even the most
feeble Of sentiment for others, with accom-
panying modification of sel6shness.
But the woman in the ballroom If
the man becomes a mean and narrow vag-
abond, the woman is transformed into a
meaner and narrower crone. Blackness
absolute enfolds her. With other women
no ray of kinship burns. The few who
would pity her, she turns from; the many,
she hates with woman's spiteful hatred.
Relations avoid her and she avoids them.
strangers want none of her; boarding.
house-keepers look askance at her, yet
some hard d-pressed mortal takes her and
keeps her.
Happily but few live out full days. The
dreary product of ballroom life does not
often reach full fruition. Not many sur
vive to decrepitude. Poor pilgrims, they
fall by the wayside.
But whatever the woman may be de-
prived of she manages to have two things
"a low rocking chair and wrapper.

Another InfIiction.

Besides the influenza, Europe is threat
ened with another epidemic which has
probably never before invaded its territory.
1t has its cradle in the peninsula of the
Ganges, and it IS called the red fever of
India. 1t is an eruptiye malady, disclos-
ing some of the characteristics of measles
and scarlatina. There are really two
eruptions-one initial and the other final.
The attack is sudden, with weakness, las
situde, pain in the head and affected eyes,
and then the first eruption appears, in the
form of red blotehes, as in scarlatina. The
final eruption becomes apparent from the
fourth to the sixth day, and resembles that
of measles, affecting the feet, hands and
the limbs, and disappearing in its turn af-
ter duration of twenty-four hours. Con-
valescence is rather slow. The disease has
hitherto been confined chiefly to Asia, but
it has recently appeared at Constantinople
and at Preyesa. 1t is extremely contagious,
but the lateness of the season may prevent
its general spread through Europe.

impedimenta in the rear, and relies for lis
safety upon its ability to move with suffi-
cient rapidity and force to overcome OBJ
stacles. An old-time oriental army car
ried with 1t every sort of convenience and
luxury; a model occidental army discards
everything but the weapons and the sup
plies which equip it fer action. There are
a great many people who move incum-
bered with as much impedimenta as the
Persian armies which the Greeks once de-
stroyed They leave nothing behind
them; their mistakes, blunders and fail
ures are carried along from day to day as
II they were priceless possessions instead
OF being shells which ought to have been
thrown by the wayside long ago, after the
fruit of experience had been taken from
them. There is grace in forgetting as
well as remembering; there is a genius in
knowing what to discard as well as what
to keep; and both these are the invariable
possessions Of a successful and efficient
life. No man Of conscience can forget his
sins; no man of Judgment can forget his
mistakes; but he does not carry them
with him. What he does carry is the ex-
perience which has come to him through
them-the strength, the wisdom, the grace
of character, which have been developed
by what they have brought or what they
have taken away.
A mans real life is always before him;
the past is only valuable for what we can
learn from it. The days fade from all dis
tinct recollection because these artificial
divisions of time are of no consequence
except as character has grown Or degener-
ated in them. A mans greatest achieve
ment, once accomplished, begins immedi-
ately to recede and become less and less in
his eyes. No really great man has ever
reposed on anything which he has done;
there has always been the consciousness
that lie was greater than any expression
he had given of himself, and that the real
and 10y of his life lay, not in
the work, but in the doing of it. One
task succeeds another. one experience fol-
lows another, in endless succession
mans work is never finally done, because
his life is always expanding, and the time
will never come when this law of progress
sion will cease to operate There can be
no heaven which is not heaven Of de-
1t is great waste of strength
to make ones faults and blunders and sin
in the onward march.
There is no virtue in continually bemoan-
ing the misdoings of the past. Real re-
pentance is not lamentation, but girding
up the loins for the work of expiation.
Let the dead old year bury its dead leave
behind the depressing memories of failure
and defeat, while you carry their lessons
in your heart. Your real life is not be-
hind, but before you; it is the new year
and not the old which is your opportunity.

forced to recant his then-believed insane
rawlings about the movement of the earth,
he said: Il do recant,' and in an under
tone continued, But the world does move,
just the same' When Fulton first gave
out his ideas about steam navigation he
was ridiculed. Columbus was ridiculed
and called fool when he asserted his
belief that there was more of the world
tnan Spain knew of in 1890. Sir Isaac
Newton and Benjamin Franklin were
cranks, sO-called in their day, but now
everyone profits by their discoveries. Ed
ison was looked upon as crazy inven-
tor not SO many years ago, either; but
haven't his wonderful inventions fairly
revolutionized the commercial world
Why, then, may it not be that it has
fallen to my lot to discover solution of
the problem of aerial navigation?'
The trial air ship built by Mr.. Helmer
was constructed of gold-beaters' skins, and
was 45 feet long and 6 feet in circumfer-
ence. The gas bag was made in the most
careful manner, and when finished was
covered with seven coats of hard drying
varnish. 1t was practically gas tight.
But when the car and its clock-work ma
chinery were attached to it, it was found
that the balloon had not been made large
enough to lift the apparatus more than a
few yards from the ground. 1t did this,
however, and was easily propelled, and at
a rapid rate, in any desired direction. A
balloon constructed upon the same lines,
but with lifting power of a thousand
pounds, would, it is said by those who saw
the experiment made, have proven a sue
cess. Mr.. Helmer is not possessed of suf-
fcient means to carry out his project, else
he would have had full-sized air ship
built long ago. He has expended, per-
haps, $1,000 in experimenting with it, and
has more faith in his invention to-day
than he ever had.
Mr.. Helmer is convinced that by his
system the Atlantic can be crossed in two

FOLLOWING UP HIS PRAYER.
How Elder John Stephens Accepted Di
vine Assistance.

now Eluer Oonn stephens Accepted d.
vine Assistance.
From the Lewiston (Nde.) Journal.I
Elder John Stephens held pastorate in
the Free Baptist Church at Gardiner forty
odd years ago. Nature had dealt gener-
ously with Elder John. His big heart was
cast in an iron frame of mammoth proper
tions, and when he lifted up his voice in
prayer or praise listeners were sometimes
at a loss to tell which was the stronger, his
zeal or his lungs Remarkable alike for
sincere piety and genuine humor, the good
man so tempered his teachings as to make
them equally acceptable to saint and sim
ner. Riding one day along the road to
West Gardiner he overlook an OK team
that was stuck in the mud. The discour-
aged cattle had refused to pull, and the
driver, who had sworn till the air was blue
and smelled of birthstone, was preparing
to reel off another string of oaths, when
the parson stopped his horse and said:
TRY prayer, my friend; try prayer"
TRY 1t yourself" retorted the vexed
teamster.
"Pll do it." said Elder John, and with
out further ceremony he dropped on his
knees in the wagon.
For while he prayed around his sub
ject as if afraid to touch it. Gradually,
however, his faith strengthened, and in
voice which bade fair to arouse the neigh
borhood, he besought the owner of the cat
tie on thousand hills to move the hearts
and legs of those stubborn oxen. The
prayer was uncenscionably long, and no
sooner had it ended than the impatient
driver prepared to start his team.
Stop" said Elder John, decending from
his wagon. GAS | have done the praying,
feel that | had ought to do the driving.
You hold my horses and give me the goad-
stick"
The man consented to the arrangement,
and with grin waited to see the parson
worsted.
At that moment another ox-team was
seen approaching from another direction.
''Halloo, neighbor p the practical parson
shouted TO the newcomer. "Lend me your
cattle for moment"
s'Hold on p cried the owner of the mired |
cart "That's not fair. If you can handle
this team better by praying than / can BY
swearing | want to see you do it; but no |
doubling up, mind you; no doubling up"
Elder Johns robust figure was drawn TO /
its fullest height, and his voice was like the |
roar of the ocean, as he answered:
"My friend, the Master l serve is abund-
antly able to move this load with a single |
yoke of oxen-or without any oxen at all /; |
but when in direct answer to prayer, he !
sends me an extra pair of cattle. I'm going
% hook 'em on 2
No further objection was raised, and with
he aid of reinforcemeuts the loaded cart
vas easily drawn out of the mud. I

AN ARAB SAYING.

Remember, three things come not back;
The arrow sent upon its track
1t will not swerve, it will not stay
Its speed; it flies to wound or slay.
The spoken word, so soon forgot
By thee; but it has perished not;
In other hearts t is living still,
And doing work for good or ill.
And the lost opportunity,
That cometh back no more TO thee.
In vain thou weepess, in vain dost yearn,
Those three will never more return.
-Const1ntind E. Brooks, in the Century.
