Dr. Brady's Health Talk
Gloomy Outlook for the Coal Man.

We have often ventured to say that
Il draft Is Il fine thing for tho health.
Now. not to put too great emphasis
on the I-told -you-so. here is the last
word OF science on the subject OF
fresh air. More words will follow. to
be sure. for no one knows all about
fresh air yet. but here is the latest
from the front--and we ask the coal
man particularly to take 1t to heart.
y number Of cold. dispassionate
scientists have been trying to deter
mine what bad air" Is, and what
makes bad air" so depressing and in
jurious. Among them, HILL Winslow
ana henderson, to mention only three
have demonstrated that three features
determine the freshness or staleness of
air, namely. temperature, humidity
ana notion-but by the grace OF good
fortune the greatest of these is motion.
IT ha: been established as n scientific
iact that neither the amount OF car
bonic acid gas nor the diminished pro-
portion OF oxygen nor the accumula-
tioh III the air OF the odorous organic
poison given off from human lungs ac-
counts FOR the yawning, gaping,
stretching, mental dullness. headache,
nausea and fainting experienced by
persori in a crowded, poorly-ventilated
room. The real cause has been found
TO be. first. absence of motion in the
air: second. warmth, and, third, In
creased moisture-T-the latter two fac
tors being obviously due to the pres
cncc OF many individuals in the room
Now, Mr. goldman. note this. Both
temperature and moisture in the air
Of room can be easily and cheaply
reduced by simple and healthful
cohtrirahce to wit, an open window.
They can be still more easily reduced
by saving on coal. And. be it known
OF all men, it pays to save on coal.
for Il household temperature of SO or
90 degrees Is indlsputably healthier for
all the occupants than one of 20 or
more degrees.

ICE CO. WILL HAVE
5000 TO 5000 TONS
Additional Storage Capacity and Thick
Ice Of Good Quality Make Fa-
vorable Seasons Outlook

The Crystal Springs Ice company is
cutting ice while the cutting is good.
The men could not work yesterday, on
account of the severe cold, and for
the same reason but little progress was
made the day before This morning.
however, they were cutting Frost
pond and getting ice from l. TO il
inches thick with comparatively little
snow in it.
The limit of storage capacity of ice
heretofore has been 1000 tons, but
with the building of new ice house
on the Richardson farm, now owned
by the company, the company will
cut and store this season between s.
900 and 5000 tons, which it Is esti-
mated will be more than enough to
supply all possible demands of Gus
toners.
Besides this 4 number of people who
have need during the summer for large
quantities of ice for commercial pur-
poses have built or are to have built
at once private ice houses and will cut
and store their own ice
This will reduce the demand upon
the ice company considerably, and
with the weather we have had with
prospects of more before the flowers
bloom in the spring, there appears to
be no reason why local patrons will
| not be able to buy what is needed
next summer.

in most instances, be glad TO contri-
butte a pickle or dime for each

For years Canal street wasaused fol
