Ventilation, Just as sure as a man begins io the poultry business with a uumber of fancy chickens, he wants “a nice hen- house with a cupola on it,” which he explains to you, is for fresh air. In this many make a grave mistake, says R. K. James in the Portland elranscript, as a top ventilation in a hen-house is of more injury than no ventilation at all. Especially is this 80 in winter. Hot alr is lighter than cold, and consequently rises to the ceiling. When there i8 an opening cold air takes its place. that a hen-house with a top ventila- tion is always a cold one in winter. When ventilators are put in should come down to within one foot of the floor, and will then take foul air without removing the warm air. Most houses in this country need no ventilation, as they are open enough to insure a good of fresh air at all times. If as much attention was paid to getting warm houses by the average farmer as there is no ventilation there would be complaints of swelled heads, roup, and many other diseases 100 numer ous to mention, The Comb in Religious It would be curious know what mystic meaning our forefathers at- tached to the simple act of co hair. We learn from old church ords that the of the priest bishop was combed soveral times dur- ing services by one of the inf clergy, but what such a queer proceed- ing signified no one knows. The comb is also mentioned as one of the imple- ments used during high mass, but only when sung by a bishop. Mass combs of the proclous metals are still reck- oned as being the valuable some Europea rches, even though they are of wlern monies, and ay combs, the poc churches had them of ivory, horn and even wood.

For, if a man will mal treat the Lord Almighty, would he not mal tion commit any sin. lie, and he who will Hie will steal, If, for instance, a man be impure, it opens the door for all other iniquity, for in that ons iniquity he commits theft of the worst kind, and covetousness of the worst kind, and falschood--pretending tc be decent when he is not--and maitreats his parents disgracing thelr name, {f they were gi Be careful, thorefors, how you charge that sin against any man either in high "Or low place, either in offlos or out of office, because when you make that charge against him with all villainies, propensities, with all A libertine iu a beast, lower than the ver- min that erawl over a summer cArcAss-- lower than the swine, for the swine has no uteitigence jo min nst, oo earsfal then, ow charge agai Any man.

The next in distance is about four times further away. If we attempt to fix an average distance for the fixed stars we cannot safely place them nearer than 4,000,000, 000,000 of miles And what does this involve? Light, which reaches us from the sun in eight and one-half minutes, would take seventy years in making a journey between the average fixed star and our little world. If the volume of space included within our solar system were occupied by one huge globe 5,600,000,000 miles in diameter, even such a mighty mass would be but as a feather in the marvellous spread of space surround. ing it.
