PURITY OF THE AIR.
An English Scientist Attacks Our
Theories of Ventilation.


Csowther, the English scientist, at
tacks one of the most cherished of our
hygienic notions with logic that com.
pels respectful attention. His conten-
ton Is that efficient ventilation does
not depend upon the chemical purity
Of the air. The attempt should be to
secure motion. GOODNESS and dryness
rather than to displace one body OF
air by another.
He denies that there is q toxic or
ganic substance in the atmosphere as
the result Of human exhalatiOns and
challenges those who disagree with
him to their proofs, as the existence OF
such poisons has never been scientif-
ically demonstrated.
The lungs, according to him. are
never filed with air some Of which
has not been exhaled. Inhalation fol-
lows so closely upon exhalation in
normal breathing that portion OF the
air that has just left the lungs is In
variably drawn back into them.
Exhaustive experiments show that
the amount Of air thus returned is
from to per cent in persons remain
ing quietly indoors. 1t is from to
10 per cent in those asleep in bed.
There are certain sections Of the re-
spiratory apparatus, moreover, the
nose and the larger bronchi. In which
exhaled air always fingers. 1t thus
appears that the air in the lungs is al
ways heavily contaminated with their
own excreting gases. even in outdoor
life. and the dead spaces make 1t GER
tain that this contamination will not
decrease.
It is not worth while. so the doctor
argues, to pay much attention to the
small amount Of carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere. therefore, and II the air is
kept in motion and not permitted to be-
come too moist or warm the necessary
ends of ventilation will be subserved.

How Doctors May Have Banks Keep
Track Of Their Business.
The Medical Record quotes from a
writer in the British Medical Journal
who suggests that physicians should
make banks serve as their bookkeepers.
Sir John Collie is the author Of this
system. His plan is to keep two bank.
ing accounts at the same bank.
1.-The first. No. l." says the writer. us
his ordinary current account, into
which he should pay all the money he
receives. whether he has been paid in
cash or checks. 1t is an excellent. rule
never to spend penny which has not
come to one through his banking ac-
count. The physician should never get
checks which have been paid to him
cashed by the local tradesman. He
should never pay his chauffeur with
his fees. Every single item received
from the physicians practice from one
years end to another should go
through his banking account No. 1. II
the physician has been tempted to use
q five dollar bill which some one has
paid him unexpectedly on a round or
If he has bought stamps with the mon
ey which some patient left at the Office,
then he should draw check for the
amount, cash 1t and pay the money
into his bank. Thus. and thus only. can
he make his banker his bookkeepef.
III the physician should die suddenly
or wish to sell his practice, then. and
then only. whether his other business
books are kept well or not, the lawyer
or the medical agency or the purchaser
who wades through his effects will re-
joice to find one method Of knowing
gross receipts and getting some idea of
the real intrinsic value Of the business
and will from the physicians bank
book alone tell the total cash receipts
from the practice upon which to found
the purchase price.
"At the end Of every year the books
should be balanced. and II the doctor
cannot balance them himself or has
not the time the comparatively small
sum which professional accountant
will charge. say IS or $40. will be well
repaid"

BANK CASHIER
On Trial ut Redfield Charged With
Embezzlement of $4,000.

Redfield, June 6.-L. r. McGarry,
formerly cashier of the Mansfield
State bank. went on trial yesterday at
Redfeld, charged with the embezzle-
ment of $4,000 of the banks funds.
All afternoon was taken to secure q
jury and a session was held to enable
L. r. Sohn, deputy bank examiner, to
testify and get to Mcintosh, where
Harry Lamb, formerly cashier of the
Mcintosh State bank, went on trial
on six charges of emblezzlement and
classifying accounts.
Important development in the Nc
Garry Ease came up when the prose-
cution attempted to introduce the
books of the bank. The defense OBJ
jected on grounds that in making his
examination Examiner Sohn had al
tered the figures and made notations
of his own. The court upheld the OBJ
lection and the books will not be adj
mitted unless they can be put back in
their original condition.
In the Lamb case at Mcintosh, the
defendant pleaded not guilty to one
count and demurred to the other five.
A motion for a change of venue TO
another county was denied, but the
motion asking for next judge was
granted, and Judge j. FL. Bottum, OF
the Tenth circuit. has been called TO
relieve Judge Dillman in the case.

Chairman Van Meter Says There is n
Demand for Full Ticket.

Mitchell, June &c. o. Van Meter
chairman of the progressive party, Is
in Mitchell in the interest of the COM
ing progressive convention to be held
in Huron next Tuesday.
Mr.. Van Meter says there is deter
mined demand for a progressive tick
ct in South Dakota this year, and
that about forty counties have al
ready selected delegates, and that the
convention will be well attended.
Mr.. Van Meter has received from
Colonel Roosevelt his final address to
all ~pragressives, written before he
sailed for Spain. In it he pledges
himself TO active participation to his
utmost ability in the coming cam
paign for the principles of the party.
There is to be no amalgamation with,
but instead, a bitter denunciation of.
the present boss-riden rule in the re-
publican party.
Chairman Van Meter was silent as
to probable candidates, saying that
the matter was wholly in the hands
of the delegates. He thinks, however.
that the consensus of opinion is for a
full ticket, and that the party would
secure official recognition by.polling
more than 5000 votes for it's candi-
date for governor.

DANCE TWELVE MILES
Student Measures Distance Covered
In a Night.

Boston, Mass, June GA scien-
tihc Harvard student has measured
the hard work in modern dances.
He went to a dance and carried along
two pedometers, one that he attached
to his leg when executing the tango,
and the other when dancing the hest
tation.
In dancing the tango five times
with eneores he covered four and n
fourth miles. That makes an average
of over four-ffths of a mile a dance.
The hesitation which was sandwiched
in between the maxixe and the tango,
served as a rest cure, for in four hesi-
.tation waltZes the pedometer record
ed only a little more than a half mile,
or one-eighth of a mile a dance. Dur
ing the night, which includes about
twenty dances, there are usually half
that number of tangoes, five or six
hesitatiors and the rest makes. A
dancing couple, therefore, travels,
roughly, over twelve miles during the
evening.
In the curse of a single maxixe
the masculine partner supports three
quarters of the bodily weight of his
partner about twenty-five times, and
making the average weight of the
girl 100 pounds, it is easy to calculate
that the man lifts nearly 1000
pounds, or a whole ton, in the course
of each maxixe dance.
