The Temperature of Flames.

DR.. Hartley has described to the Lon
don Chemical society his experiments
on the temperature of n candle fame,
not only from the melting of gold and of
platinum in the fame, but by an exam
ination of the spectrum to be seen in the
mantle. Experiments made with pla-
tinum wires heated in a batswing gas
flame proved that the carbon does not
lower the melting point Of the platinum
that is not in any appreciable degree;
a small carbon monoxde flame melts
platinum wire of 1-1OOth inch thickness,
and a cyanogen flame was shown to be
intensely hot, for 1t melted such wire
with extreme ease. These interesting
experiments by DR.. Hartley in measur-
ing the temperature of flames were car
ried ON by of gold leaf and with
fine wire of platinum 1.3ooth of an inch

hot-air furnace, except that a hot
water drum occupies the central part
of the dome.
Those room that can easily be
reached by a direct current of hot air

further away from the furnace are
equipped with radiators. This system
is particularly wen adapted for largo
and rambling country houses, which,
from the very nature of their con-
struction, can never be thoroughly
heated by hot air alone. In so far as
the consumption of fuel is concerned,
the combination system is as economical
as any other; perhaps, indeed, a greater
amount of heat can be obtained from o

When We Dwell in preamland.

Prof. Pheltshu says that lively dreams
are in general a sign of nervous action.
Soft dreams @ sign of slight irritation
of the brain, often in nervous fever an
nouncing the approach of a favorable
crisis. Frightful dreams are a deter
mination of blood to the head. Dreams
about blood and red objects are signs of
of infammatory conditions. Dreams
about rain and water are often signs of
diseased mucous membranes and drop
sy. Dreams of distorted forms arefre-
quently a sign of abdominal obstruction
and disorder of the liver. Dreams in
which the patient sees any part of the
body, especially suffering, indicates dis
case in that part. The nightmare, with
great sensitiVeness, is a sign of deter
mination of blood to the chest.-Popu-

are the well known causes of sucl
obesity.
Leanness, if very marked in the
gentler sex, usually has its orr.
gin in disease, tuberculosis more
particularly. This disease, the
greatest scOurge of civilized hu,
mainly at the present day, is a

tions and perversions, caused

AS to the second cause of beau
ty. or the lack of it, viz: The
carriage and motion of the body,
we find that women frequently
lose their beauty through mat
tentiOn to these important fac
tors. AS soon as they are mar
ried. so many women think it no
longer necessary to be particular
in such matters, and too soon,
and to their sorrow, they find
their grace and their good looks
gone; their walk less elastic, and
prematurely old, round shOlder-
ed and sunken in. Not only their
figures have lost their charm. but
the muscles of their faces have
lost their firmness and the mobile
and animated expression has
vanished, the very things on
which a wOman's charm and at
traction depends. Look at our
dancing girls in the theater.
When seen near by and in repose
many of them often are anything
but beautiful. but in motion they
are all grace, captivating and
charming.
All this, and particularly the
ladies. should ever be watchful.
not to lose or forget their grace
full motions, their freshness, and
animated expressions, on which
the attractiveness of form and
face so much depends. l do not
ask for affectation, although a
little cOquettishness may serve to
keep active a sense of the beau
tiful-but all could and should,
by proper exercise, keep them
in condition to be attract
i've. More particularly would l
recommend tasteful gymnastic
exercises adapted to the female
form, which is SO conducive to
grace of carriage.
\ third requisite to beauty is a
fine skin. This gift, too, is natu-
raj to women. They need but to
be healthy to have a brilliant

been made and used. But all of this
has not yet passed the experimental
stage
With the above exceptions in mind,
what may be called the latest of heat
ing apparatus is that which makes use
of hot water or a combination of hot
water and hot air. The use of hot
water in one form or another to raise
the temperature of a room is by no
Q new. Many years ago every
improved conservatory IT greenhouse
was equipped with large open troughs
in which hot water circulated; later,
the troughs were supplanted by large
iron pipes, and this system still remains
as the best for the purpose. But it
was manifestly impossible to use such
an apparatus for a dwelling, and only
in comparatively recent years has the
hot-water system been perfected by
the substitution of radiators for
troughs and pipe of large diameter.
Hot-water heating for dwellings has
some prominent advantages that have
done much to establish it firmly in
favor. 1t is safest, for one thing,
and 1t provides the most equable tenn
perature as it can be carried a long
distance horizontally. 1t is very
easily regulated, and the matter of at
tendance is reduced to "a minimum,
which is no small consideration. There
is no circulation of dust, which is the
inevitable concomitant of hot-air heat
ing. To get the very best results a
hot-water plant should be installed in
a new house, planned with this in
view. Hot-water heating is estimated
to require one-fourth more ~radiating
surface than steam, and OF necessity
there must be more and larger radla-
tors; these a be placed where they
will not be obtrustve. They can be
adjusted beneath the windows and en-
cased, and arrangements can be made
for the passage of a current of fresh
air over the radiators, thus contribut-
ing admirably toward the ventilation
of the house. The very latest appli-
cation of hot water to heating Is in
combination with hot air, and In many
ways this is the most perfect system of
all. Both sources of heat are in the
same furnace, which need be no larger
than If either system was used by it
self. The furnace is like the ordinary

tenn of hot-water heating giving in
direct radiation downstairs and direct
radiation in the second story would be
about $3.50. Radiators should be placed
as near the windows as possible in par
lor, dining-room, library and hall down.

rooms and bathroom in the second
story. The estimate is based on New
York prices for materials and labor.
In many sections of the country the
cost should be less-Cooperative Build

PHYSICAL BEAUTY OF
VI

WOman's beauty does not con-
sist only in a beautiful face, but
also and as fully in the harmOni-
Gus development of the whole
body, as recognized by anatomy
and physiology, and reflected and
idOlized in the artistic minds of
the sculptor and painter in it's
highest perfection; and we'll may
the medical student, along with
the artists, who are guided by
their tact and sense for the eXte-
riOr alone, be permitted to speak
of woman's beauty, judging from
cause to effect. Generally speak
ing, i must make the sad confes-
sion that there are more hand
some men than handsome wO-
men. Why is this? Did nature
create fewer handsome women
that they may be the more sought
after? Surely not. AS children
little boys and girls, are alike,
pretty and lovely, as a rule, and
as more girls are born than boys,
the former, one would infer, had
me advantage. But men retain
their good looks longer, and so
we have more handsome men
than women; even many hand
some old men; a handsome old
lady being almost an exception.
Where are we to find the cause of
this? Let us ask science? Is the
framework the skeleton, respon-
sible for this rapid loss of beau
ty in women? Very likely, if at
all. In the halls of anatomy we
find handsome female skeletons.
