i Even i;a the enlightened days, when
the art Of photography has advanced
50 very near to perfection, there are still
some Told-fashionedr people, who cling
with ;fondness to these silhouettes. One
great thing: in their, favor is, that the
least clever among: us may with q little
patience and steady hand, find in them
a pleasing recreation, and, soon become
adroit. in their execution But there
may be some Of our young readers who
scarcely know what silhouette is, and
sueh-unenlightened persons we will
cndeavor to instruct in the almost for
gotten art "A few sheets of drawing
paper, q pencil, and o lamp, are oil the
essentials needed to commence opera
lions, says Happy Thoughts. -.
The operator first fixes q sheet of
paper to the wall, by inserting pin in
each corner. Then the person whose
likeness, or silhouette" is to be taken,
is. seated in chair, close to the wall,
in such Il position as to throw distinct
shadow: Of his profile las near lifesize
rs possible) on the center of the paper.
To secure steadiness a wine glass, or
some such support, is placed between
his head and the wall-for the slightest
movement often causes failure. Having
arranged these matters satisfactorily,
the operator. proceeds to sketch, with
a pencil, the head and profile of the
''sitter;" and this requires steady
hand and some dispatch, as it is no
easy matter to sit in one position for a
great length of time perfectly motion
less. When the sketch is concluded,
little. skill will be needed to bring the
taskito I'M end. The operator has only
with a sharp penknife to cut out the
head in the line of the pencil mark. The
center part is then thrown aside, and
the :othee paper laid on a piece of black
cloth, spbich throws out the features
boldly, and, if sufficient care has been
taken, striking likeness. will be the
reward. :.s

Tuberculosis Readily Develops In Dark
II. lll-yeatilatcd Rooms.s IT, :. ss.s
A merchant noticed, in the progress
of years, that each successive book
keeper gradually lost his health and
finally died of consumption, however
vigorous and robust he was on entering
his service. At length it occurred to
him that, the little rear room where the
books we're kept opened in back yard
so surrounded by high walls that no
sunshine came into it from one years
end to another. An upper room, well
lighted, was Immediately prepared, and
his clerks had uniform good health ever
after. ~, y
A familiar case to general readers is
derived from medical works, where an
entire family became ill, and all RENE
dies seemed to fail of their usual results,
when accidentally window glass of the
family room was broken, in cold
weather. It was not repaired, and
forthwith there was a marked improve
ment in the health of the inmates. The
physician at once traced the connection,
discontinued his medicines, and tor-
dered that the window pane should not
he replaced, = :.
A French lady became i'll. The most
eminent physicians of her time were
called in" but failed to restore her. AT
length Dupuytren, the Napoleon of
physics, was consulted. He noticed
that she lived in dim room, into which
the sun never shone, the house being
situated in one of the narrow streets;
Or, rather, lanes of Paris. He at once
ordered more airy and cheerful apart
ments. and "all her complaints van
ished."
The lungs of a dog become tuber:

II kept confined in dark cellar. The
most co1nmofrplant grows spind'y. pale
end scraggling if no sunlight falls upon
it. The greatest medical names Lin
France, of the last century, regarded
sunshine and pure air as equal agentsin
restoring and maintainin" health. ~
From these facts, which cannot rbe
disputed. the most common mind
should conclude that cellars and rooms
on the northern side of buildings, or
apartments into which the sun does not
Immediately shine. should never be oc-
cupied as family rooms or chambers, or
as libraries or studies. Such apart
ments are only fit for purposes which
never require persons to remain in them
over a few minutes at 81 time. And
every intelligent and humane parent
will arrange that the living-room and
the bedrooms shall be the most commo-
dious, iightest and brightest apart
ments in his dwelling.
