Itm baker delivered a very in teresting lecture Saturday afternoon in the assembly room of the fiirls' Normal School before a large attendance of the memlKrs of tlie Alumnae Association of the liirls' High and Normal Schools, Ilia subject was "Ventilation and Its Relation to Respiration." He legait his remarks by showing the structure of the respira tory arcans which were represented by models of thorax and lungs an a verti cal section of the Lead, and also told of the groat necessity for proper ventilation in a place where the change in the air has been produced by breathing. Dr. Hru baker c included bis a idress by referring to the many inefficient ways of ventilation. He said that the liest way of ventilating a large room was the throw ing of air into it by engines, but the ait; which is thus put in the room is cold, an! makes it very disagreeable for the people, and if this air could be warmed Itefore being thrown into tho room it would le the ui.tst healthful as well as Itcnefieial way known.

The School Directors' Association of Pennsylvania, recently organized in Har ris! si rg, has a measure in process of cre ation providing for the consolidation of schools in tow nships wherever practica ble, and the next legislature will be ask ed to pass it. Some school dins-tors think many of the school houses can be aban doned to the educational advantage of the pupils. Authority w ill given in the ploMd law to sch'M'l districts to employ means of tree transportation to and from schools if consolidation removis scholars too far to admit of walking. The urioc to have school houses creeled in central localities containing a number of rooms, to lie graded from primary to gram mar, in imitation of those in cit ies. It is claimed that it will result in financial saving, better buildings and the use of impioved apparatus, while tho grading ol the schools will 1 ten e tit pupils Supt. N. T. Shieffor, of the Pennsylva nia State school department, has this to aay of tho consolidation scheme: The idea of furnishing Tree transporta tion to pupils for the purpose of closing one school, to an adjacent school, has been realized in several other States. The plan can bo defeated by the prejudices of the parents and their children. In one school district of Milllin county tho plan was tried for two months, and abandon ed liecause the parents declared that they would not Iks deprive! of their right to a school near at homo. On the other hand, in one of the sections in Chester county, the parents prefer graded schools, which are made possible by bringing the pupils from tho end of the district to the central building. The directors claim that tho plan lias given them lietter schools at less expense. In schools attended by less than 10 pupils there is lacking tho inspi ration of numbers and the emulation which arises in classes of mmlerate siza. Free transs)rtalion is not feasible iu all districts, and the plan demands on the part of directors the exercisa of wiso dis cretion ami go. si common sense. SOMERSET TO WE3HIP EEFUBLICAH PRIHAEY.

My last bulletin gave forecasts of tho storm wave to cross tho continent from the Sth to tho 12th, am! the next will rea.-li tho Pacific, coast a!nmt tho I'llh, cross the west of Rockies country by the c!'so of tho llth, great central valleys on tho 1.1th to 17th. am! the eastern States on the Isth. Accompanying this disturbance will !e a large amount of precipitation, and immediately follow ing it the coldest part of the mouth. Tho warm wave will cross tho west of Rockies country altoul the S"tth, great central valleys on tho loth and the east ern States on the 17th. A ool wave will cross the west of Rockies country als,ut the Pith, great central valleys on tho lth and the eastern States on tho 3Uh. The cold wave following this disturbance will increase iu severity as it moves eastward and will bo most severe in tha Atlantic States about the 20: h. Months ago these bulletins contained an important forecast, to the effect that rain and snow would largely increase over the United States before tho chtse of Decern !er. It was also stated that our atmosphere was greatly expanded from the effect of excessive and long evapora tions ami would collapse by precipita ting by the beginning of s;rk Apply laws of magnetism to the position of the planets, and the reason for this import ant and successful forecast will be seen, as also the causes for tho April and May droughts of ISO. A paragraph recently run through the newspapers in which it was stated that two full niiKons occurred in Decemlior, ls.i.1, and thot a like event had not been witnessed since tho time of Christ. This shows how little some people knowalxnit one of the most common o.s urreiices, and the blunder ought to cause them to hesi tate when th"y come to discuss tho changes of the moon, weather events, forecasts, etc. The fa-t is that two full and new moons, two first quarters occur at intervals of altout thirty months. Us ing astronomical time, which begins at noon, two full Hi' tons occurred in July, lsTl ; January, ls71; November, ls7ii; August, ls7;; June, Iss2; December, ls-s; October, Is;; July, 1SU; January, lssit, and Deccmlter, l-flM. The two full moons and two other phases of the iiiihiu occur in the same month at intervals of eighteen years and also, with nearly the same regularity, at intervals of nine year. If wo use civil time, beginning at midnight, these are just as many such cases and at the same intervals, but not always iu the same month. Lively & a Cricket.

The physicians of Monroe County, Pa., are watching with interest a remarkable ease. For eleven years a young daughter of Morris New hart, of Slroudsburg, w ho lives near the Fair Grounds, lias Itcen living with a bullet in her brain. Phy sicians proltcd for the bullet without suc cess. It looked as if death must claim the little one, but still she lingered on. For months she lay paralyzed. Her eyes were blind and she could not hear. Suddenly a change came over the little sufferer. Her hearing returned and she was able to see. She grow and to all ap pearances was healthy. Dixsiors mar veled at the strange recovery, hut pre dicted that tho first serious, illness would cause her death. Presently il caue iu tho shape of a bad attack of scarlet fever. The report of her death was daily expected, but to the wonder of all she lived through it and to-day slio is as healthy as ever, although still carrying tho bullet. It is thought that the bullet by this time has lieoonio ineysted that is, a sac has formed around it which may prevent any return of the dangerous ailments. Miss New hart is now fifteen years of age.

These three teachers will constitute the exam ining committee for permanent certifi cates for three years, subject, however, to removal by the Slate Superintendent at any time. Applicants for permanent certificHteH "must have taught for three successive terms in the publie schools of the State immediately prcx-eding the date of their application, hold a valid professional cer tificate, be recommended by tho respec tive school boards for whom they have taught, aud also by the comity superin tendent, Tho proiier blanks will 1 mailed upon application.

Most of the tow uships will fix on Jan uary 18 ami 2.1 as the date for the primary, though some w ill lie earlier, am! this is alsmt tho right timo in order to allow opportunity for the discharge of the com plicated duties which devolve ustn the various oilicials in preparing lor tho election. In undivided townships, only one cer tificate will le mado out by each political party. It w ill bo tiled with tho county commissioner. Hut in townships that are divided into two or more ehs-tion districts, it will l.e tho duty of tho otli eers of tiie primary meeting iu each election district first to certify to tho commissioners the party nominees for judge and inspector of election and a!-o for registry assessor, and then to con solidate tho vote of tho township in school director, supervisor, constablo and other township oiiieers, and jointly certify on the blank form furnished by the co.iiiiy siiimissio:iers tho names of the nominees to tho c :ii.iiissi ,iu rs. Thus in townships which contain two or more districts, certificates wiil be tiled by the Republicans, one for each district by the oiiieers of the primary in such dis trict, ami otie by the judges of the primary for the township-at-large. This must lie dono according- to the letter of the law at least eighteen days lwf ore tho election. Hut it may lsj well to leite.-ate here that in order to give the commissioners sullicient time to properly discharge their duties the primaries should lie held as early as January lit, and the certificates tiled i:i tho county commissioners' olih-e, although Saturday, January 21, will lie sufficiently early fir the primary if the certificates of nom ination are tiled immediately there after.
