Electric Light the Only Light Not Injurious tc
Health.

From Health Magazine London, Eng.
Electric lighting, as means of pre-
serving and promoting health, has not
been sufficiently appreciated by the
British public. 1t may be safely said that
electric light is the only form of artificial
illumination which Is not injurious to
health. This is a. strong argument In
favor of the general introduction of the
electric light; but it is when we begin to
compare this light with that of gas, or
any other artificial lights, that it's
beauty, purity, brightness, cleanliness
and safety comes out in strongest con-
trast
Gas not only consumes and pollutes the
air, but it is very poisonous, besides
having deleterious effect on the furni-
ture and decorations of our homes. Gas
gives off a certain amount of SCOT, which
is evident from the blackened ceilings
and cornices, discolored paper, etc. The
destruction of goods in the shops of our
great cities from the action of gas must
also be very great. In Offices shops
and factories employees can use 1t con-
tinously without feeling the lassitude,
headache and fatigue which are fire.
quently caused by the use of gas. AS a
means of retaining health. the adj
vantages of the electric light are indis-
putable.
The electric light Is a pure, healthy
light, which, If no other were used, and
the smoke of our fires self-consuming.
would leave our cities almost as fresh
and bracing as highland hill, and rosy
instead of pale cheeks and brightly
flashing instead of dim, lusterless eyes
would mark the city inhabitants.

TAKE A DAY OFF FOR THE JOB.
Democratic GOLD Bugs VIII Read
Platform Next Week.


Platform Next Week.
Chairman Holt, of the Democratic State
committee. sat among a crowd of half a
dozen gold bugs at the Grand last even-
ing. They were dolefully telling each other
how ii was done and discussing the Popu-
listic nature of the platform adopted. None
of them had read II yet, preferring to take
day off for the job. They understood,
however. that it was practically the plat
form written two weeks ago by Allen
Clark, with the addition of the planks de-
nounong the bond issues and declaring
against the final redemption of the green
backs, which were prepared by W. s. Hol-
man.
Then the talk branched off into what tire
Chicago convention is likely to do.
IF the gold people turn up there with
over one-third of the delegates" said Mr..
Holt, they are likely to try to prevent
the nomination Of pronounced free-coin-
age man. In that event there will be an ef-
fort TO abolish the two-thirds rule and If
this is done there will be a bolt then and
there. while If IL is not done ii will take
them all summer to nominate a man..
Ii seemed to be the opinion of the group
that the Eastern Democrats would have to
for State and local purposes.
1.-The sound-money people may have got
the worst of IL on the platform" said Mr..
Holt. 'but you will notice that we got
about everything we went after on the
ticket And the crowd named over Fan
ming, Chandler and Lawler, all of whom are

ton of the Chicago convention have given
up hope of a sound-money platform. but
they expect TO see a bolt of the Eastern
Democrats that will give them an oppor-
tunity 10 vote for sound-money Democrats
and sound Democratic principles.
The adoption of the free-silver platform
has made Marion county as certainly Re-
publican in the next election as the State
OF Pennsylvania. But if anything further
were needed TO make IL so the way the
sound-money element was treated by the
convention has been sufficient. The idea of
the State convention picking up such set

a fight for the seat TO which he is entitled

were of such character as TO give him a
chance he would make the fight.

EFFECT ON BUSINESS MEN.

The chief topic of conversation among
both Democrats and Republicans yesterday
was speculation as TO what course the
sound-money Democrats who were bound

Wednesdays convention are likely to pur-
sue. Messrs. Taggart and Holt and those
Democrats who have been known as prac-
tical politicians swallow their medicine
with a grimace and declare with grim de-
termination that they will do their duty
by the ticket whatever that may mean,
but with the business men who have
formed such a powerful factor In the DEM
ocratic party here IL is different. They
know that they will get along Just as well
and probably better without the aid OF the
Democratic party than with II, and are
more outspoken IN discussing the question.
A good many OF them will await the action
