The notion that night air is poison
GUS has long held sway; but now comes
a Baltimore physician, DR.. Eugene l.
Crutchfield, who scouts it utterly.
What is more, he makes out a strong
case. He claims that in the cities at
night the air is free from the smoke
and dust of commerce, and, therefore,
purer than in the daytime. in the
country, to be sure, noXious vapors
sometimes arise after sun down, but
they fortunately d. not rise high. The
person who sleeps in a well-ventllated
room on the second floor even in q
malarial district will not, in his opin-
ion, fare any the worse for these
vapors, because they will not get up to
him. In high and dry climate, night
air is infinitely better than the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. air that infests
rooms deficient in ventilation. Better,
in his opinion, take few chances on
nocturnal mephtisms than to beclog
ones lungs with the sufiocating carbon
dioXide that turks in closed-up houses
Exercise, free breathing and abundant
fresh air are his cardinal doctrines fol
all who would observe the common
sense gospel of health.

1t must be confessed that from a
sanitary standpoint tie American
householder has many things yet to
learn. The home sanitation of Scran-
ton compares favorably with that Of
any city in the country; yet how many
Scrantonians are guiltless of the over
sight pointed out in the Medical
Examiner when it says; "An almost
universal defect in esidential architec-
ture is the omission to provide a bath
for servants. The imperative require
ment of the housewife is that her
dompstics shall be clean aud tidy.
How is it possible for them to be with
q total absence of all facilities for
cleanliness? Why do servants rooms
emit peculiar odor which is not found
in any other part of the house? My
lady would be horrilied if her own
room were in the same condition. The
labor of the house especially produces
profuse perspiration. This with the
naturally oily substance of the body,
unless removed, becomes rancid, and
with other uncleanly conditions must,
in the nature of things, produce in
time an accumulation of causes, which
becomes anything but pleasant Give
them bathing facilities by all means.r

A number of medical wiseacres are
now reviving the notion that tobacco
using cOrrupts the young and induces
the old to become insane. The fact is
cited that the French government pro-
hibits the use of tobacco by children in
the public schools; while the Swiss
government, going France degree
further, absolutely prohibits the use of
the weed by all persons beneath the
age of q. This subject is rarely dis
cussed with moderation; and it is only
alluded to here in order that word
may be said in behalf0f temperance, as
opposed to the radical views Of the e2-
tremists Gnod tobacco smoked moder-
ateIy by healthy adults will never kill.
The trouble in its use all arises from
those who will not limit their devotions
at the shrine Of "my lady nicotinen
by bounds of prudence and common
sense. 1t is well to have our children
taught not to smoke, in any form.
Then, if when they grow to maturity
the longing for tobacco causes them to
reverse this precedent, the best plan is
to let them 60 it. Eternally nagging
at them will oftener induce imtemper.

Of the opening Hanham still played Indifferent
defence and Hymes excelled in brilliant and
energetic tactics. and won the game after twenty
nine moves.
Albin treated Rocamora to a Zukertort opening
and eventually sacrificed the exchange for the sake

Albn could have done anything against correct
defence. In course Of subsequent play Rocamora
made a few weak moves. and lost after forty-two
Halpern adopted the French defence against
champion Stelnitz The latter out generalled black
altogether and after thrty-th moves Halpern

Jasnogrodsly and Pillsbury also played a
Zukertort opening. which splendidly played
