Poisoned by Coal Gas

Tuesday morning a telephone call
from Smith Anthracite for the con,-

him to hurry up there. On .arriv-

was thought to- he ptomaine poison

ptomaine poisoning and a short in
vestigation proved it to be coal gas,
the stove pipe above the roof being
very short the high wind of the pre-
vious night had prevented the gus
ascending and driven it down the
piDe into the room. Mr-. Snyder
was affected the most, being uncon-
scious for several Lours, every effort
to revive her being made. Before
the cause of the trouble was found,

THE BUSINESSMAN'S
HEALTH

/ IA OINTING out the neces-
O sity of good sound health
y on the part of the mod
Iern businessman or profession,
al man. particularly those in
executive positions, DR.. Charles
+ +. Thwing, president of the
Western Reserve University
/ gives the following five means
by which personal health may
be conserved and improved:
/, BY proper food enough and
simple.
. BY proper sleep, eight hours at
least.
8. BY proper exercise. an hour a
day at least in the open air, in rapid
Walking or riding or golfing
A. BY one day OF rest each week
a rest day which shall not mean lessi-
tude and idleness, but downright
change of ones thinking. doing and
interests,
s. BY an avocation carried on with
ones vocation. Each avocation
should help the vocation. the vocation
the avocation.
These suggestions make the five
pointed star which stands over the
cradle of sound health.
If the foregoing do not qua
rantee good health always they
will at least go far towards
that goal. Incidentally the
goal is worthy of hard striv-
ing for unless we have good
health we do not live to capa.
city, We are only partly alive.
The fact many men in poor
physical health will get more
cut of life and accomplish
more than others in robust
physical condition does not
change the principle involved.
If these same successful men
had more perfect health they
do still better.

If there is danger of chilling the air

If the cold is excessive, or if there
is a raw, damp wind blowing or rain
or snow is falling the baby should be
given his daily airing in a room with
the window open, or on a protected
porch dressing him warmly in out Of
door clothing. He should be taken
out during the middle of the day, for
a little while, never long enough to
run the risk Of chilling him. This
applies especially to young and deli
cate babies As a child gets old en-
ough to walk about and thus exercise
himself, he can be allowed to play
for some time in an open room or
where he is sheltered from the wind.
But an airing every day does not
take the place of fresh air in the
house, day and night, and to secure
sufficient ventilation for health the
mother must be on the watch to see
that the rooms are opened and the
air changed at frequent intervals

OUR RAILRoADERS

TURDAY evening
S words of high praise
= were bestowed upon the
O.-W. R. & N. Co. and the men
responsible for its operation in
the various departments.
Such compliments were in
order because it is a fact the
O.-W. r. & N. is a good rail-
road and it is conducted by ca
pable men who for the most
part rose from the ranks. They
are men who know the bust
ness from various angles. They
have not always been high ex-
ecutive officers. Many of
them began on the lower
rounds of the ladder and their
advancement has, been due to
ability and industry. If there
is royal road to the top in the
transportation business these
men have known it not. The
path they have travelled has
been one that can be followed
only by men of worth and sta
nina. 1t is not for the incOm-
petent or foolish.
What is true of the officials
is true of trainmen also. The
railroad business is one, where
il property of immense value
is handled and human lives are
at stake. The trainman faces
hazards every day of his life.
His duties call for good sense
andeoften for courage Of a
high order. 1t is mans work
and it is work worthy Of a good
reward.
