James Sweeney, Chief of Bureau 0.
Standards, Makes Report Cover
ing the Past Year

In his annual report to Henry
Houck, Secretary of internal Affairs, of
the work accomplished in the last year
by the Bureau of Standards, James
Sweeney, Chief of the bureau, says:
Virtually all of the counties have
complied with the law which commands
each of them to appoint an Inspector Of
weights and measures. Many cities
have separate officials of this character
while in other cases county and city
have combined. There are almost 100
such officials in the State who report
to the Bureau of Standards.
During the last year these sealers
and inspectors inspected 734,124
scales, weights, measures, etc, of which
221,959, almost one-third were boxes,
baskets, barrels or other packages gen
orally used as containers rather than
as measures. The remainder of inspec-
tions were of measuring or weighing
devices, and % per cent. of those ex-
amined were found to be Inaccurate
OF those found faulty, 21,216 were ad-
justed to standard and kept in use,
while 95,955 were confscated and put

Chambersburg Minister Has for Month
Been Compelled to Abandon Church
Work and May Have to Go to a
Hospital

Ghambersburg, Nov. 30.-A rusty
nail upon which he tramped may be the
means of seriously impairing the min
isterial work of the Rev. DR.. G. A. Me-
Alister, pastor of the Central Presby
terrain church. The Rev. Mr.. McAlister
now is at his home in a state of physi-
cal and mental collapse. Constant med
zeal and personal attention is neces-
sary.
The accident to DIR. McAlister oc-
Cured about a month ago. But little
heed was given it by him at first. Later
the wound became more aggravated. DIR.
McAlister declined to take the rest his
weakened system demanded and the
hurt ran from bad to worse. For fort
night he has been compelled to abandon
all pastoral duties. His friends believe
his removal to hospital in few days
will be necessary. His last public ap-
pearance was as moderator of the Fall
ing Spring church congregational meet
ing which chose successor to DR.. John
Allan Blair.

DANGEROUS GASES
Little Talks on Health and Hygiene
by Samuel G.. Dixon, M. D., LII.
"a D., Commissioner of Health

When the first cold snap comes down
90 the windows in homes and Offices
and whatever fresh air is obtained
finds its way in when somebody opens
the door to enter or depart.
If the heating arrangements are
deemed insufficient they are often sup
plemented with oil heaters or gas
stoves. In the vast majority of cases
these have no iue connections and as
they burn they exhaust the oxygen in
the air with great rapidity. When the
atmosphere in a room is devitalized in
this manner it becomes dangerously
unfit to breathe as the life supporting
qualities are exhausted.
When gas stoves are used without
ventilation there is danger from car
bon monoxide gas. This is an odorless
gas which also escapes from coal fire,
one per cent, of which will kill horse
in two minutes. 1t is visible as the blue
flame which burns over anthracite coal
after it is put on the fire. This gas
will often permeate the entire house
from the furnace in the cellar or from
the kitchen range. The sulphurous gas
which escapes with it irritating to the
olfactory organ and so usually gives
warning
To guard against the escape of
gases, fire doors and stove lids should
not be opened or removed beyond the
point where the fame of match held
close outside will be drawn inward. As
long as the draft is up the chimney the
gases will be carried with it.
Unfortunately the majority of
heating systems are planned without
providing for ventilation. Direct steam
and hot water plants which have this
pernicious fault of making no provi-
sion for the admission of fresh air are
responsible for much ill health.
More people. die from the improper
use of steam heat than freeze to
death.
