Outdoor Air.

Few persons stop to think of the
great difference between indoor and
outdoor air. In every dwelling por-
ton of the air has already entered the
lungs and is in the nature of excrement.
The outdoor air alone is tolerably pure,
but perfectly SO only at high attitudes
and away from cities.
We talk about climate cure, about go
ing to Florida or Nice for health, but
we venture to assert that any invalid
may secure greater improvement with
regard to the air he breathes by proper
ventilation Of his dwelling room and
by living out of doors most Of the time
than he can by going to any new eli
mate and neglecting these conditions.
Many poor invalid's salvation might
be found in his own garden, while he
may 60 to the ends of the earth in
search Of health and die in the closed
room to which he has retreated in the
fear of outdoor air. -Philadelphia Led

A BIKE FAIRY TALE.

Once upon time there was queen
who was SO advanced that the king was
quite out Of it. She set an example of
female independence to her subjects by
going long journeys on her bicycle, un-
incumbered by any court train. She be-
came SO enthusiastic about female
wheeling that she built three bicycle
tracks. On the first there was hedge
100 yards thick, on the second pond
100 yards wide, and on the third lad
der 100 yards high, and she decreed that
no girl should marry the crown prince
unless she rode her bike through the
hedge, across the pond and up and down
the ladder. Many girls tried, but all
failed; the crown prince remained sin
gle, and at last the tracks were over
grown with weeds for want Of use.
One day the queen went out on her
bicycle alone, as usual, and lost her
way. Night came on, and she was glad
to find shelter in lonely cottage where
dwelt woman and her daughter. The
daughter was very beautiful wise
woman had foretold that she would ride
over the three tracks and marry the
crown prince, but she had once met
handsome young huntsman in the for
est and vowed she would never marry
any one but him, 60 she refused to learn
10 bike at all.
The mother was clever and ambi-
tious woman. She knew the queen at
once by her profile, which was on all
the penny pieces and besides she wore
the great seal on her finger to prevent
the king from misusing it in her alb
sence. But the mother kept her own
counsel and treated the queen as a
stranger, setting before her the best
food there was in the house for supper.
When the queen had finished her
meal, she noticed how lovely the girl
was and said to the mother, "Is your
daughter at for anythinga' The woman
replied. "She Is the champion lady BIZ
cyclist Of the whole world. = oh, in
