Heated buildings.

Impurity of the Atm ospberc of Steam
Heated buildings.
In an article contributed to the
Philadelphia Record by DR.. Z. A. Ad-
ANS, the inquiry is propoandcl
whether the immense increase of
steam-heated Office buildings, in which
the great majority of rooms have no
adequate means for the renewal of the
air to be warmed, may not in a large
measure account for the prevalence of
pneumonia among Iniddle-aged men.
Many of these buildings, Dir. Adams
says, are admirably constructed to
keep out air, whether cold or not; this
very perfection contributing to their
insalubrity. In these Theoretically
sealed Office rooms that abound in
business buildings the stcan heats the
atmosphere to a delightfully."- comfort
able degree, and the occupant breathcs
and rebreathas the air during zero
days when al open window. cannot be
endured, the effect being to silently
undermine his powers of resistance, SO
that when he goes forth, exchanging
such tropical air Tor the keen breeze
of unrestricted nature, it happens
that, through some subtle cilaacc in
his system which has robbed his lungs
Of their power Of resistance, their CO.
pacity to endure the onset or transi-
ton is gone and the subtle poison of
unrenewed air does its deadly work in
The form Of pneumonia.

SO DREADFuLLY CANDID.


Woes of tho Writer o. Artist Who Has n
PIain-spoIen Friend.
Do you write? Oh, how your candi id
friend shakes his head over your last
novel or play, or whatever it is. says
III The Year Round. You are not
doing nearly such good work as you
did two years ago, and he lnutters
about decaying powe and writing
yourself out, till, like Henry H., you
eroan: "Who will rid me Of this .naanf'.
Perhaps you fancy you can paint, in
which'casc haE.ing committee, buyers.
critics and dealers arc not the most
savage lions in your path if you happen
to be blessed with candid friend.
The worst Of it Is, the man is friend
and will do you good turn if he can.
of course without much trouble to him
self, also to a certain extent he knows
what he is talking about, SO that YOU
are bound to have some respect for his
opinion. lie begins by gently prancing
around your work rather in the man
ner of the commencement of a Sioux
war dance.
You grow anxious, and losing your
b. ad, in moment of telnporarv aber-
ration you ask his opinion. Whoop!
You've got it. Your shadows are
opaque and your lights pasty, your
drawing is weak and your technique
bad; your color is crude and the whole
thing out Of tone, and at the end the
sum and substance of it all is that if
he = the candid friend painted as
badly as you do, he would never touch
a brush again as long as he lived.
Hope / haven't hurt you, old fellow,
but you would ask my candid opinion, /
so | was bound to give it to you" he
says.

The Somervillc Journal has a story
of little Dorothy, six years old, who,
like other children, is q born cgotist.
She went out for horse car ride with
her aunt She had her now purse with
her and was very dcsirous to pay her
own fare, but her aunt said no. 'You
are my guest" she explained to
Dorothy, $50 must pay your fare, but
you may take the ten cents and handsit
to the conductor, if you like" So
Dorothy took tho dime ard when the
conductor came along she handed it
to him in the most dignilcd manner.
lie gave her quick look, and cstinat-
ing that she was under the flvc-ycar
limit. he rang in only one faro, and
handed back ivc-ccnt piece, which
Dorothy took without a word. Wasn't
it strange" she asked after she got
home, "the conductor took my fare,
but he didn't charge Aunt Alice any
fare at all?v
