for SubHc assemblies 1t may be nee
essary witlfe either of these systems
to use a fan, either to propel fresh
mir into the room or to draw away
the vitiated air.
The great desideratum in the ad-
mission of fresh air is to cut it up
into very fine streams, something in
the way water is cut up in passing
through the fine rose of a watering
can. 1t has been found that air adj
mitted through a tube or orifice OF
equal sectional area throughout en-
tiers as a cold draught; but if the IN
let be through a series of small trun-
Gated cones, the smaller section out
ward, the larger inward, with a wire
aauze on the inside, the current IS

draught is not felt. BY analogy, a
mass of water entering through a
narrow canal drives all before it and
cuts a channel for itself, but the
same quantity passing over large
surface of ground gently irrigates
it. Another important point is not
to let the passage of the air be at
too great a velocity, the gentler the
flow the better.
CANDY AND OTHER SwEETs.-Per-
sons who exclude from their diet
bread and potatoes and partake
largely of meat and greens, should
eat freely of sweet stufs-cake, pud
dings and candy. Sweets will moi
disturb digestion if taken with meals
It is the between-meal eating thai
does the harm. Bread and potato
caters require very little sweet food
It is needful for the proper perform
ance of all the bodily functions t.
have sugar in the system. Many
foods not sweet to taste furnish
sweets for the blood through the
digestive changes they undergo. l
these substances are excluded from
the diet, the best substitute woulC
necessarily be a true sweet at thu
beginning.
SUNsHINE.-In selecting a site TO
the summer residence or. the all
year-round home, bear in mind tina
light is needful for a healthy life
The rays of the sun are a powerfu
disinfectant and they ferret out host
of impurities. Remember the adag
"where the sun does not go the doc
tor does"
| SINGING.-Encourage your littl
ones to sing. Music lessons car
and heartache. Often and often TIL
words of song, the sweet melody
Finger in the heart after the voice
silent, and keep alive the courag
which had almost died-anXiety an
heart pain cause heart disease, an
after that quickly comes death. Son
sweetens toll, and it is imperativ
that parents and teachers shout
aim to increase this means of hal
piness for the children if for no othG
reason than to strengthen their mind
and hearts for the labOrs to be born
in mature years.
