SILENCE FOLLOWED.

A clergyman who had been greatly
annoyed by the continued Interruptions
to which he had been subjected by the
whispering that went on during the
delivery OF his sermon stopped abrupt
ly, and, looking ars.and at the coagre-
CATION, said: "Some time ago, while
delivering my sermon, l was frequent
ly interrupted by gentleman sitting
in front of me who gesticulated, moved
about and whispered to his neighbor,
and at last l addressed to him a sharp
reprimand for his unseemly conduct.
When the service was over my clerk
in the vestry mentioned the matter to
me, and asked if I was ignorant OF the
fact that the person addressed was an
idiot! l have since then always hesi-
tated to reprimand any one of my
congregation for interrupting me, in
the fear 1 may be addressing an idiot
who is not responsible for his actions" :"
Silence reigned throughout the re-
nader of his sermon.

A Fair Financier.

They had finished dinner-a cosy
tete-a tete dinner, elegantly served up
on round table, and choiceiy cooked.
The butler and his subordinate had
withdrawn, after placing a smart red
dispatch box, which throughout the
meal had occupied prominent posi-
toin on the sideboard, upon the shin

house.
He, merely nodding, looked over at
his wife, who without word drew a

"You are very obllging," she said,

WHAT is BAD AIR?

The air which has been brcathed is
not fit to be breathed over again We
all know from experience, yet it is not
easy 10 give a satisfactory scientific
reason for this fact. What is the
vitiating constituent Of the human
breath, asks the Lancet?
Certain it is that the chief constitu-
ent added to the air by respiration
namely, carbonic acid CASPER Sc has
little or no effect upon the health.
Indeed, it has been stated that men
can breathe for two or three hours
without marked discomfort air which
contains-with, of course, its full CON-
plement of oxygen-as much as 20 per
cent. of carbonic acid, and the presence
of per cent. has not the sli ghtest
effect. But if the carbonic acid in the
air be raised only to lilo per cent. by
human respiration the resulting air is
most unwholesome and detrimental.
There is no chemical difference, of
course, between the carbonic acid gas
of the human breath and the carbonic
acid gas obtained from chalk or from
the combustion of carbon or coal gas.
The obvious deduction is that the car
bonic acid gas of respiration has a
poisonous companion, and this COM
panion has so far eluded all attempts
at isolation and recognition. This
poisonous constituent may occur as a
constant quantity in relation to the
carbonic acid gas; possibly it does not.
We do not know, although it is very
important that this point should be
determined.
We are content, however, to judge
the impurity of air by measuring the
amount of carbonic acid in it, and to
some extent this measure is valuable
guide. 1t is not satisfactory that the
evidence Of impurity is not obtained
more directly than this. Every one
knows that air vitiated by human res
piration is offensive and poisonous. In
other words, bad ventilation, that is, a
condition in which the products OF
human respiration are not removed
sooner or later produces toxic symp-
toms. There are usually loss of appe-
tite, discomfort, severe headache and
malaise, which cannot be traced to in
fective organisms any more than the
absence of such organisms can explain
the curative effects of fresh air. More
over, it is common experience that d
sojourn in a badly ventilated room
occupied by great number of people
predisposes to disease. There seems
little doubt that the impurity Of the
air has some connection with the
"catching of cold" The presence OF
respiratory products is declared by an
offensive smell, and it seems odd that
chemical analysis is not able to lay
bare what actually the nose readily
detects. The effect of bad air upon
the health cannot simply be that OF an
offensive smell, though that undoubt.
edly plays a part. x 1t
not only is absolutely devoid of the
vitalizing effect Of fresh air, but it has
almost slckening smell, and sooner
or later gives rise to sonse ofoppres'
sion. What is the poison? 1t seems
to US that the whole question needs a
much more extended inquiry than has
been hitherto carried out, for surely
chemistry and physiology hand in
hand could eventually elucidate this
a:,tt ttr.
