Bad ventilation delorms more chill
dren and destroys more health than
accident or plague There is reason to
believe that not a few of the scrolulous
diseases common among children pro-

put to sleep in beds and porambulators
with the head under the bed clothing,
and 80 inhale air already breathed
and further contaminated by eXhala-
