Unrenewed Air-1ts Deadly Effect.

In a very timely article contributed to
the Philadelphia Record by DIR. F. A.
Adams the inquiry is propounded whether
the immense increase of steam heated office
buildings, in which the great majority of
the rooms have no adequate means for re-
newal of the air to be warmed, may not,
in a large measure, account for the prev
alence of pneumonia among middle aged
men. Many Of these buildings, DR.. Adams
says, are admirably constructed to keep
out air, whether cold or hot, this very
perfection contributing to their insalu-
brity. In these Theoretically sealed Office
rooms thatNabound in business buildings
the steam heats the atmosphere to de-
lightfully comfortable degree, the occupant
breathes and rebreathes the air during zero
days when an open window cannot be en-
dured, the effect being to silently under
mine his powers of resistance, so that when
he goes forth, exchanging such tropical
air for the keen breeze of unrestricted ma
ture, it happens that, through some subtle
change in his system which has robbed his
lungs of their power of resistance, their
capacity to endure the onset or transition
is gone, and the subtle poison of unrenewed
air does its deadly work in the form of
pneumonia.

Till quite recently nothing was known
of either Hobah or the land of Ham,
but the Tell Amarna letters mention both
these regions. Letters addressed to Amen
ophis III about 1880 B. c. by subject
chiefs of the southern Lebanon and Of
Bashan occur in this correspondence, which
describe the great Hittite invasion of Da-
mascus about that time. Aidugama, the
Hittite king of Kadesh, on the Orontes
now Kades, south of Emesa), advanced
Ilong the Baalbec plains and attacked the
land of Hobah and reached Damascus by
the great pass of the river ALBANIA, ON the
north. He subsequently invaded the land
Of Am and took various cities in Bashan,
near Ashcroft Karnaim.
From these notices it appears that Hobah
was the region north of Damascus, and
the land of Am or Ham was northern
Bashan. The line Of the ancient raid of
Chedorlaomer thus becomes quite clear.
He probably crossed the Euphrates at
Carchemish and advanced along the sea
route which the Assyrians followed much
later when invading Edom. The mountain
chains were all avoided, and the road fol-
lowed was that Of the famous pilgrim
route from Damascus TO Akabah on the
Red sea, but the fafthest point reached by
the Elamites was near Petra, and the re-
turn march led up the Jordan valley and
perhaps across Hermon to Hobah, in the
southern part of the Baalbec plains. All
the districts named occur, therefore, in
geographical sequence. Review.

WHAT IS A GENTLEMAN,
Some of the characteristics That Mark the
Perfect Man.

HerIeCJ NAN.
1t is an easy question to ask, but diff
cult one to answer. What is honor3
What is valuei What is poetry? Though
most people can feel, few can define any of
these things, and the short answer to the
first question IS simply this, "A gentleman
is gentleman"
Let me try to define him by few mega
tives as well as positives. Firstly, of his
costume. He must not be dirty, negligent
or slovenly in his person. He must nei-
ther be meanly nor magnificently dressed.
He must not wear gaudy and incongru-
gus colors, or affront the eyes of onlookers
with jewelry and Emery. He must not af-
feet eccentricity or singularity, or dress
himself in such q manner as to cause the
vulgar to stare or the judicious to grieve
as he passes by.
He must dress as Polonius-not at all a
fool, though every actor who plays the
part endeavors to make him so-advised
his son Laertes to dress-in golden words
of true wisdom.
But dress, though it0e the first and most
obvious, is the least characteristic of the
gentleman. In his manners he must not
think himself the principle person in the
world, the kingdom or the company, but
without parade Of humility, which is in
itself an offense, he must think himself
the last-or, at all events, he must act as
If be thought so.
He must not fail In deferential polite
ness, either to man or woman. He must
not take the first place as if it were his
inalienable right. He must not, at table
or elsewhere, commit acts which, though
they may be harmless in themselves, are
contrary to the prevalent notions of his
time and country.
A hundred years ago gentleman might
get drunk after dinner without losing his
social position, but to any on9Naspiring in
our day to that high and illustrious rank
the slightest tendency to drunkenness at
table or anywhere else is fatal to his pre-
tension.
To be loud in talk Is almost as great a
derogation from the ideal of the character
as to be cloud" in costume know that
the word is slang word, but it expresses
a meaning not to be reached even by a
periphrasis and may, for that reason, be
looked upon leniently.
To hear one mans voice overriding ev-
cry others and one mans opinion thun-
dered into the ears of people too timid, too
indolent or too courteous to do battle with
Stentor is fatal to Stentor's claims to be
considered gentleman.
And quite as essential as manners to the
perfection of the character is conversation.
A man in the dress and with the man
ners of gentleman must not talk vulgar
ly, indecently, obscenely, irreverently or
even ignorantly-if the ignorance be very
gross-without forfeiture of the rank to
which his dress and his manner would
seem to entitle him.
But granting all these three essentials
the would be gentleman is not gentle
man If his heart is wrong. Dress is an
ornament, manners are grace, converse
ton is a charm, but they may be possessed
in all possible perfection by a coundrel.
But these three combined with a noble
heart and sound judgment-the one bal
ancing the Other-unite to form the true
gentleman.

THE ENGLISH GIRL.

A wonderful Joy our eyes to bless,
IN her magnificent comeliness,
Is an English girl of eleven stone two
And five foot ten in her dancing shoel
She follows the hounds, and on she pounds
The field" tails off and the muffs diminish
Over the hedges and brooks she bounds
Straight as a crow from find to finish.
A. cricket her kin will lose or win
She and her maids, on grass and clover,
Eleven maids out-eleven maids in
And perhaps an occasio&l maiden over"
Go search the world and starch the sea,
Then come you home and sing with me
There's no such gold and no such pearl
AS bright and beautiful English girl.
Her soul is sweet as the ocean air,
For prudery knows no haven there.
To find mock modesty, please apply
To the conscious blush and the downcast eye.
Rich in the things contentment brings,
In every pure enjoyment wealthy.
Blithe as beautiful bird she sings,
For body and mind are hale and healthy.
Her eyes they thrill with right good will
Her heart is light as floating feather
AS pure and bright as the mountain rill
That leaps and laughs in the highland
heather.
w. S. Gilbert in Utopia.

PROCLAIMs HIMSELF DICTATOR.
The President of Guatemala Takes
Absolute Control

Trouble has broken out now In q fresh
place on the southern continent as shown
by a cable message received at the State
Department from the United States min
lister to Guatemala, saying:
THE President of Guatemala this day de-
clared himself dictator, dissolved the extra
session of Congress, assumed. control Of
government and ordered a new election
The matter was discussed at the cabinet
meeting. and il was decided to send a war
ship to the seat of the latest trouble. The
Alliance, now al Corinto, Nicaragua, is the
nearest available ship, and orders were
cabled to her commander to proceed at
once to San Jose de Guatemala or other
important port of Guatemala for the pro-
lection of American interests. Brazil and
Guatemala are now the only countries of
South America requiring the presence of
United States warships, although there are
rumors of impending trouble at the coming
elections in Peru. The Yorktown is at
Callao, the Alliance will soon be at Guate-
mala and the Charleston and Yantic are in
Brazilian waters, where they will be Joined
within few days by the Newark and the
Detroit. 1t is said that the cruiser New
York. now fitting out at New York, will
also be ordered to Rio de Janeiro, in case
the United States should become involved
in the growing complications at that port.
