GIVE CHILDREN
PURE AIR
THE STATE BOARD OF HEALTH CALLS FOR
OPEN WINDOWS,
WILL PREVENT CONSUMPTION
Pure Air A Preventive Of Many Diseases and
Will Save Doctor Bills.

AS the winter closes in many peo-
pie will find it necessary to make
their houses warm by adding storm
windows. On the living apartments
the storm windows may not be so OBJ
iectionable, and yet to insure the
highest opportunity for health the
house would be better without them.
But it is little less than crime to
put storm windows on the sleeping
apartments of our dwelling houses.
1t is believed that there can be
nothing of greater importance to the
health of the people and nothing
more detrimental than to enclose with
storm windows the rooms which are
occupied during the hours of sleep.
During sleep the processes of elimin-
alton are going on very rapidly in the
body. Poisonous gases are being ex-
hailed from the lungs in great volume
If therefore the air is not constant
ly supplied with oxygen from the out
side it is impossible to keep the all
of the room pure; it soon becomes
yitiated and foul with the most dis
astrous poisons. In many houses The
sleeping apartments will be swelter'
ing with filth and foul air and it il

world that there is a home inside

world that there is a home inside
of the house. 1t has been many
years since there was sure enough
"our' baby in our house, but it is
seldom a day but the patter of lit
tie feet are heard and some little
chap crawls up in our lap for consola-
ton or sympathy in its childish grief.
and just such little chaps are the en-
joyment of real life. An old man
will never feel sad with the babies
in the house, for they make him young
before he has time to feel sad or
old. God bless the babies. The old
maid who don't like 'em ought to live
on top of mountain in perpetual
blizzard. and the old bach who don't
like 'em ought never to have any
thing to eat but bean soup and eat
that with a glmlet out of a jug. and
married people who like them and
don't have any of their own ought to
adopt a waif once in two years so
long as they are able to care for
them. There is world of truth in
the old adage that "a hen can scratch
just as we'll for dozen chicks as for
one. Take the largest families in
this or any other state and the chill
dren are as fat and we'll kept, and
usually as we'll dressed as are those
with only one or two. One of the
saddest things that as an editor we
ever have to chronicle is the death
of an only child. A child's death is
always a sad event but when it is the
only one there is a vacancy that
neither time or anything else will
ever fill. Give the babies a chance

Roy Mote, who is now working
in Denison as printer, tells US that
he has had an offer from Billings.
Mont, for the next base ball season.
He thinks however that he does not
care to go. He says the western
country does not agree with him.
Last season he played in the Colorado
state league with the Rocky Ford
team. He played short in game
where there was $500 side bet. The
game stood one to nothing in favor Of
Rocky at the end of the first half of
the ninth Inning. The opposing team
got two men on bases with two men
out. The batter sent pop-up to
Mote and in some inconceivable way
he missed it. Roy says it was SO
easy that ten-year-old girl could
have caught it. but he missed it slick
as whistle. The two men scored,
Rocky Ford lost the game and the
sports lost their money and Mote
came near losing his life. He says
that western country does not agree
with him little bit. He says he
did not blame the boys for being
mad and he never yet has been able
to figure out how he missed that
baby fly. Notes old time admirers
here are confident that it was not
because he does not know how to
play ball, as two years ago he was
one of the very best players on
Denison's champion team. Mr.. Mote
thinks Denison could have good base
ball this next year if it could get into
a league. A Northwestern league of
such towns as Boone, Jefferson. Car
roll, Denison. Mo. Valley and Council
Bluffs would make fine circuit.
People would turn out better for lea
que games and by affiliating with the
big leagues the players would be
under better control. The Review
has been rather sore on base ball since
the boys posing as the Denison team
sold the game with Ute at Charter
Oak. That was as shameless a tin
horn trick as we ever knew of and
ended our liking for The semi-profes.
sonal in base ball.

ting the screen fall inside. This will
act as a protection against drafts and
offers a very inexpensive mode of
ventilation.
Persons who will follow the above
instructions will find their children
going through the winter without
sore throat or tonsilitis in almost
every instance, and in the event a
child should take cold do not close
the windows but protect the child
properly and place his bed beside the
open window. He will rapidly re-
cover. This is only an intimation of
what should be done regarding the in
creased protection against cold sought
during the winter season. Do not
put storm windows on your sleeping
apartments.
