The General Use of Electricity for Light viii
Lessen the Death Rate.

Effects of Light Air.
The air in high attitudes is rare and
contains less oxygen than at a sea level
1T therefore is more important, in such
situations, that sanitary devices looking
to a maintenance of sufficient supply of
oxygen should be adopted. A gas burner
in one hour uses four times as much
oxygen as one qerson requires In the
same time. AS we have less oxygen in a.
cubic foot of air 1t behooves US to see
that we use as little of our supply of the
life-giving oxygen as possible. In addi-
ton the gas jet emits enough carbonic
acid gas to vitiate a very large proper
ton of the air. For this reason, where
gas is used for illumination, care should
be taken that all of the earbonic acid gas
generated be carried out of the room di-
rectly from the flame. and a sufficient
supply of fresh air be added to the room,
preventing the percentage of oxygen de-
scending to the danger point. English
authorities recommend a gas burner hav
ing direct Connection with the outside
air for its supply of oxygen, and another
pipe running to the outside for carrying
out of the room the dangerous carbonic
acid gas. This would increase the cost of
lighting by gas to more than that of the
electric light, but where the health of
our homes is concerned 1t is of small mo-
ment.
We have admitted in our households,
in gas, one of the most poisonous agenr
cies that can we'll think of. 1t is there
to be turned on al an instant by careless
children and servants. We are being
poisoned by it all the time Let one of
you try to make a perfectly tight joint,
and you will find that 1t becomes a high
art. You cannot prevent the leakage of
gas. 1t will take place imperceptibly. We
feel overcome by a lassitude, and we do
not know why-malaria! Nine times out
of ten 1t is the gas. There is in gas of
all kinds the most improved forms of
gas, carbonic oxide, which Is highly pois-
onous, and If taken into our systems the
effects will gradually undermine our con-
situations. This is one of the indirect dis
advantages of gas. The supplanting of
that by electric light will be of great ad-
vantage

fully with the president on the financial

paving the way for a bolt Your course
toward the Morgan county primary is
creating the impression that you are
going to bolt in the minds of thousands
of democrats in this state. Everybody
remembers how kolb proclaimed, when
in 1892 he began to do what you are now
engaged in, that he had been fighting the
battles of his party for twenty-five years,
and that any intimation that he was
going to bolt was false and unfounded,
but he bolted. When you carry "sore
toe" into politics you are likely to wind
up outside party lines. Kolb had sore
toe, and so have you. When democrats
refused to look at it he went out with it.
You have exhibited yours, which is your
personal hatred of Joe Johnston, until
the democrats have become Disguised,
and when they refuse by 2 to 1 to view
the thing longer, as they will do on April
II, take care that you don't step out with

1t is now in order for Johnston organs

Montgomery Advertiser.
Why should any one charge Ex-Gov-
ernor Seay with "ingratitude?" When
he was a candidate for the United States
senate the "blue-eyed boy of destiny"
Hon. r. H. Clarke, now the Advertisers
candidate for governor, and probably the
senate, too, was an ardent supporter of
Mr. Pugh, having stated in a public
speech, it is said, in Mobile that it would
be public calamity to have Governor
Seay succeed Senator Pugh in the United
States senate. That the ex-governor
now declines to neglect his own affairs
to go on the stump for the man who en-
tertained those kind of opinions of him
a few years ago does not display any
lack of gratitude. Governor Seay was
an advocate of the single gold standard
at that time, while Senator Pugh was
then, as he Is now, an advocate of the
free coinage of silver, but then the "blue-
eyed boy" had not Travelled, and no light
had come to him in the night time, a s
