BREATHE PURE AIR.
The Necessity For FILLING the Lungs as
Each Inhalation.

Bho necessary EOrs SnunS hno Lungs -
Each Inhalation.
Breathe pure air always In the lungs
q most important physiological process
occurs It is from here that the blood
laden with oxygen is sent to all parts of
the body, giving off along its course its
oxygen and taking up carbonic acid gas,
which it brings at last to the lungs,
when it is cast out in expiration. More
oxygen is taken in by inspiration and
the same process is repeated
So let your breathing be full and deep,
going to the very bottom of the lungs
in order that all of the blood in them
may receive its full amount Of oxygen
before again starting upon its tour of
distribution through the body. Can one
use any more forcible argument in favor
of loose clothing than this? 1t is abso-
lutely impossible to secure plenty Of
oxygen if the clothing is worn at all
tight, and oxygen is a food which the
body must have always in abundance to
keep well.
The air leaving the lungs is laden with
that deadly poison carbonic acid gas
which if given off in close room, when
no provision is made for its escape and
the entrance of pure air soon renders
the air utterly unfit to breathe. Perhaps
some night you will find yourself un-
able to sleep and tumble restlessly about
in bed. When this occurs, go to an open
window and inhale the fresh air, breath
ing slowly and deeply. A few minutes
Of this and you can return to bed and
probably will soon be sleeping quietly.
What has happened? By its restlessness
the body was asserting it's need of more
oxygen. Now you have given it what
it. so emphatically asked for, and it is
quiet. We get as much uneasiness and
disturbance from the want Of this food
as when we do not eat enough, only the
symptoms are not so we'll understood
nor recognized so quickly. Always keep
your mouth closed and breathe through
your nose. Then the air is warmed,
slightly moistened and largely freed
from particles of dust, so that when it
enters the lungs it does not irritate
them.
A condition often met with by ply
sicians is anemia. In this trouble the
patient is pale, lifeless looking, tired
and generally used up, often without
being able to tell distinctly how she
does feel. Sometimes these patients say
that they have not enough blood. 1t RS
really only an element of the blood
which is wanting, but that is very
important one-namely, the red blood
corpuscle.
When you know that it is only those
corpuscles which have the power to take
up and carry oxygen, you see at once
how important it is that the blood
should not he lacking in them. Good,
wholesome food, plenty of it and well
digested will give you the corpuscles.
Furnish them with the oxygen and the
body will have an important element
toward health. What to Eat.

The mascot of the Brooklyn is little
West Indian fawn, not more than foot

can be comfortable, no matter what the
condition of the weather may be.-New

That Impromptu Social.

The social given at the Y. M. C. A.
Friday night by the Y. M. C. A. was
quite asuccess, the hall being crowded
to overflowing. The program, though
arranged on short notice, was excep-
tionally good. 1t opened with piano
trio led by Misses Phelps, Briggs and
Dale, which was well received. The
vocal duet by Miss Macken and Mr..
Watson was highly enjoyed. A novel
number was that of cornet solo by
Miss Vera Teape. Miss Vera is doubt
less the youngest cornet soloist in the
county, and is a marked success.
Miss McFadden delighted the company
with recitation, which was heartily
received, and she was compelled to
respond to an encore. The audience
was next favored with a rare treat
in the way of instrumental music by
Miss Alice. She was enthusiastically
applauded, and responded with rem
dition of "Old Black Joe," which was
highly appreciated. Miss Alice is
certainly an artist. A vocal solo by
MIS-. Gordon, rendered in her charm
ing style, brought forth abundant
applause. The mandolin club is al
ways at a premium, and Miss Birdie
Wetherel, Mr.. Blackburn and Mr..
Backus favored the audience with the
closing number. Some surprise was
expressed that so good program
could be given purely impromptu.

Apple Crop Is Short.

CHICAGO, Oct. %. = The Orange
Judd Farmer of the 25th says: "The
apple crop of the United States is
smaller than in has been since relia-
BILE statistics have been collected.
The total supply of the 1898 crop
of the United States is 27,7OO,00O
barrels, compared with 40 millions
last year, and 10 millions in the rec
ord-breaking crop of 1896.
The failure is widespread, reaching
from the Pacific coast to Maine, and
in none of the states does the fruit
approach an average. In the great
apple states of the West, the crop is
almost an absolute failure, although
the situation in Michigan is better
than elsewhere, having about two
thirds of the bumper crop of 1896.
New York has only one-fifth of a
full crop. The failure is attributed
to the fact that during the blooming
season there was excessive rainfall,
which washed out the pollen and pre-
vented proper Fertilization by insects,
while cold wave added to the injury
and subsequent moist weather was
favorable to the development of
fungus diseases The Ontario crop
is decidedly short. The crop of
Europe is reported below the nor

Out In the Hills.

Thursday afternoon little CON-
pany of pleasure-seekers, concluding
the bounds of the town were too
limited for their merrymaking, and
not wishing to waste the excellent
opportunity afforded by our charming
moonlight nights for an outdoor good
time, wandered around back of
the Hogback, across Sand creek
and up into the hills above the old
Harding stone quarry and spent the
best portion of the night. A huge
bonfire was made, and while some of
the accommodating gentlemen pres
ent brought water from a nearby
spring others were busy preparing
the evening meal, which consisted of
all the good things common TO picnic
parties and few others including
baked sweet potatoes. After lunch
con, or what might better be termed
a feast Judging from the amount
taken, the evening was spent sitting
around the campfire telling stories,
talking politics and doing other origi-
nal things. The return home was en-
joyable, proving short distance to
some, longer to others, according to
the age and physical condition of the
respective picnickers. 1t was charm
ing evening genial crowd and they
had a good time.
