Health Without Medicine Or Money

A Medical Library which never advises a dose of medicine, except in cholera, may be found in the following works, written by Dr. W. W. Hall, of 42 Irving Place, New-York, after having spent many years in special and exclusive attention to the Diseases of the Throat and Lungs:

Hall's Journal of Health, six volumes, $1,25 each; whole set,........ $7.

Health and Disease, a Book for the People, 298 pages, third edition,.. 1.

Bronchitis and Kindred Diseases, ninth edition, 882 pages,.......... 1.

Consumption, second edition, 280 pages...................,..... 1.

The object of these books is to show, to the young especially, how health may be preserved by natural agencies, and how, by the same means, to remedy ordinary ailments, such as cold feet, sick headache, constipation, neuralgia, dyspepsia, etc. It is believed that safer, plainer, truer, and more useful books on Health have not been written in any language.

Healthy Homes

If unnecessary death and disease be things for which any one is to account; if the suppliers of our dwellings are answerable for economizing at the cost of life; if they have any duty in building for others; in short, if any man be responsible for human life wasted by human agency; if at the hand of every man's brother ' shall be required the ' life of man,' then should every part 'of our dwellings be contrived according to whatever our latest science may prove necessary,' in order to make them healthy homes.

The Heat

Nothing amuses me more than to observe the utter want of perception of a joke in some minds. Mrs. Jackson called the other day, and spoke of the oppressive heat of last week. "Heat, ma'am," I said, "it was so dreadful here that I found there was nothing left for it but to take off my flesh and sit in my bones." " Take off your flesh and sit in your bones, sir! Oh, Mr. Smith! how could you do that ?" she exclaimed with the utmost gravity. "Nothing more easy, ma'am; come and see next time." But she ordered her carriage, and evidently thought it a very unorthodox proceeding. - Ibid.

Heat And Ventilation Of Houses

This subject will bear a good, sound chapter in your pages, as often as once a quarter, at least, to the great edification of your readers. I went into a country church, the other day, at the afternoon service, and I was almost stifled with the offensive atmosphere which the morning congregation had left in it. There was a stove-heat and no ventilation; and the sexton did'nt know enough to letdown the top sash of a gallery window on each side, to let out the pestilent stuff between services. On no one subject can the " schoolmaster" start out on his travels, to more advantage than this.
