leaving it in the morning a sufficient length of time to got get the smell ol of the fresh air into the breathing passages one returns to the filee sleeping plu room and notices anything different from the outdoor out door air then be sure that the room is not perfectly ventilated undoubtedly the air is befouled fou ledwith with emanations from the body of the sleeper d during the night and if the he currents of moving air in the room are arc not strong enough off these emanations so that they will not be perceived the ventilation is at fault and should be abonce at once attended to as tle emanations once thrown off from the body can only be poisonous to breathe again A window open a slight distance at both top and bottom and a chimney y draught also open are the fhe only sure ways of keeping pure air in a sleeping room with closed doors LEARN TO LAUGH I blessings on the laughter no matter of what style of course we all like the ha ha ha and we dont like he he hc he or ho no ho ho
