the garden of the Hall, while such a
piece or architecture is clearly recall
ed at the Rectory. And, again, 1T wiz
be remembered that David met Mr..
Murdstone and Mr.. Quinion, after his
mothers death, while he was turning
the corner of a lane near" his house
and after strolling with them he re-
turned home. Looking back" he
says, 'as. 1 turned into the front gar
den, saw Mr.. Murdstone leaning
against the wicket of the churchyard
and Mr.. Quinion talking with him"
This would not be possible from the
Hall, but if any one will take up a
similar position at the wicket gate,
the Rectory will be seen, and one will
recognize how particular Dickens was
as to his minute geographical details.
Another point in favor of the Rectory
being the "Rookery' will be found in
the hedge of the front garden, which
divided Mr.. Murdstone on his horse
in the roadway from David's mother
in the garden, when they walked up
and down conversing Then, again,
take that delightful little incident of
Peggotty's, when David was packed
off in Mr.. Barkis' cart ON his way to
school. David and the carrier had
gone some little distance when Peg
gotty burst from a hedge and climbed
into the cart and presented David
with bags of cakes and a purse con-
tanning three bright shillings which
she had evidently polished up with
whitening" Dickens had studied the
geography of the village so well as to
make this little incident possible.
The cart would have to travel the
road on two sides of the field adjoin-
ing the Rectory. and Peggotty would
have just had time to reach the sec
ond corner by taking a diagonal run
across the field, which no doubt she
did. This would not be possible in re
gard to the Hall

ne Churcn.
Dickens found It, and as one APP
proaches it one is struck by its ideal
situation, hemmed in, as it were, by
the chief high roads of the surround
ing country, everything fresh and
glowing in the summer picturesque
ness, and the whole place nesting in
peaceful seclusion. One can well i'm
agine Dickens falling in love with it
as he did, by rambling through the
green lanes to such a charming vii
lake so perfectly English in all its
characteristics.
Little David, as everybody who has
read his personal history knows, was
born in the Rookery. and there can be
little doubt that the Rectory of to-day
was the house which Mr.. CopperfieId
bought and named the Rookery,
because che liked to think there were
rocks about it." There are still elms
in the garden, but the strong wind
which made them bend ito one an
other, like giants who were whisper
ing secrets" and causing the wealth
erbeaten ragged old rocks nests bur
dening their higher branches" to
swing like wrecks upon a stormy
sea-" had given place when l visited
it, to a light summer breeze which
quietly famed their leaves There is
another house-Blunderston hall
which has made claim to being the
rookery on account of the fact that
Dickens description of the interior
of David's birthplace comedies more
fully with it than it does with the
Rectory. And, further, when Dick
ems was visiting the spot and called
at the hall for the purpose of becom-
ing acquainted with its interior, he
made himself known to the old house
keeper who was in charge of the
place at that time, and had her per
mission to enter

ever, that is the license of the novel
list, and was often Dickens way. On
the other hand, there are other and
weightier reasons for believing that
the Rectory was the house Dickens
had in view when making the ''Rook-
cry" the birthplace of David. AS a
matter of fact, the Hall can have no
claim whatever from a geographical
point of view. In the first place, the
gravestones in the churchyard cannot
be seen from any window in the Hall,
whereas they can from the Rectory
The same applies to the sundial over

How to ventiIate.


er the doors and windows are closed,
largely shutting out the purifying in
huences of the fresh air which has so
freely circulated through the house
during the warmer season.
The rude shabitations of our pioneer
ancestors, with their capacious open
fireplaces, were superior to our mod
ern palatiaI dwellings in that there
was always possible an abundant sup
ply of fresh air Houses of the pres
ent day in our civilized land are made
as nearly air-tight as architectural
skill can secure, and unless provided
with some systematic mechanical
means of ventilating, the indoor air is
constantly contaminated with breath
poisons and other impurities resulting
from the heating and lighting and
cooking within the house, so as to
be constant menace to the health of
the inmates.
Probably the best means of provid-
ing the needed supply of fresh air, is
the open fire with a wide-mouth chin
ney to act as ventiIator The open
CRATE is likewise the most healthful
means of heating a house; although
SO far as fuel alone is concerned. it is
not the most economical Weighed in
the balance with the saving in health,
however, it may be considered a mat
ter of economy.
If other means of heating be en-
ployed, good ventilation can be Sc
cured only by some special arrange
ment for the incoming of fresh air
and the outgoing of foul air. How
this may be well accomplished is best
nj in he, Of all
thority on the subject: THE foul air
outlet should be constructed on the
plan of the firepIace-an opening near
the floor connected with the chimney
or an upright ventilating shaft, the
top of which should extend above the
roof like a chimney. The ventilating
shaft should always be located in an
inside wall, and, if possible, should
be placed next to chimney which is
always warm. The chimney heats
the duct and increases the draft.
THE opening for the outlet of i'm
pure air should be at the bottom of
the room when the house is heated
by furnace or by other means which
warns the fresh air before it is adj
mftted to the rooms. If the fresh air
is admitted cold, the foul-air outlet
should be at a higher level The best
point is perhaps at about four feet
from the floor This will secure a
thorough admixture Of the air. If the
outlet is at the floor, the cold fresh
air admitted to the room viii pass
out before it has been warmed and
used, while the hot foul air viii &C
cumulate in the upper part of the
room, and thus the change of air will
be imperfect.
Two openings must be provided to
secure proper ventilation, one for the
entrance of fresh air, the other for
the exit Of foul air. 1t is in every
way better that the air should be
heated, at least partially, before it
enters the room, as this will to a
large degree prevent the formation of
a cold layer about the floor
