Air is bad when it is overheated,
when it contains an excess of mois-
* ture, and when it is chemically con-
taminated. This is the conclusion of
the New York state commission on
ventilation as summarized by Frof. C.
E. A. Wislow, chairman.
The first indictment against bad
air show’s that an increase in tempera-
ture beyond the normal seventy de-
grees produces serious derangement
of the vaso-motor mechanism of the
body, resulting in a rise of tempera-
ture, increased pulse, and a lowered
blood pressure, with a corresponding
decrease in efficiency, both physical
and mental. In addition to this, over-
heating conduces to an undesirable
congestion of the mucous membranes
of the nose, thus possibly paving the
way for colds, sore throats, and at-
tacks of various germ diseases.
The w’ork of the commission also
proves that chemical accumulations

Genuine Heroism.
The characteristic of genuine hero-
ism is its persistency. All men have
wandering impulses, fits and starts of
generosity. But when you have re-
solved to be great, abide by yourself,
and do not weakly try to reconcile
yourself with the world. The heroic
cannot be the common, nor the com-
mon the heroic. If you would serve
your brother, because it is fit for you
to serve him, do not take back your
words when you find that prudent peo-
ple do not commend you. -Be true
to your own act, and congratulate
yourself if you have done something
strange and extraordinary, and broken
the monotony of a decorous age. It
was a high counsel that I once heard
given to a young person: "Always
do what you are afraid to do.”—Em-,
erson.

bring about a decreased appetite for
food, which in turn must have an un-
favorable effect on the entire body.
In the commission’s experiments, the
people living in fresh air ate 4% to
13 per cent more than those living
in stagnant air.
“These experiments," says Profes-
sor Winslow, “indicate that fresh air
is needed at all times and in all places.
While we have changed our ideas as
to w’hat causes bad air, ventilation is
just as essential to remove heat pro-
duced by human bodies as it was once
thought to be to remove the carbon
dioxide produced by human lungs, and
it is now proved also to be essential
for carrying away chemical products
which exert a measurable effect upon
the appetite for food. People who
live and work in overheated and un-
ventilated rooms are reducing their
vitality and rendering themselves an
easy prey to all sorts of diseases,
such as tuberculosis, pneumonia,
grippe, etc.”
