Many new in- ventions anti improvements are poli. tivoly dangerous to human life. Our streets have become unsafe for feet pas- sengers and vehicles. The air above them is filled with a network of wires, carrying electric currents of deadly pow- er. If they should break and fall in the street, as might easily happen at a fire, by a load of ice or other causes, it might be instant death for a man to touch them. If a stream from a fire engine should play against two broken ends of the wire the electricity would follow the stream of water and kill the . firemen. Again, the wires are so numcrogs in many localities that it would be almost impossible to raise ladders for the res- cue of people cut ofr by the #tames. This is the dangeraverhoad. There are other dangers underfoot, A few feet underground are pipes charged along their whole length with steam at a pressure which only a boiler is fitted to'. withstand.

Every house should 'have in the prin- cipal, or living room, at least, a fire- place, if only for use in summer, or in the warm months. There is rarely a month in which there is nota long,.and cold storm, or if itis not cold, .there is an all-pervading dampness, which re- quires a fire to remove it. In the North- ern States, the present month and the next are among: themost, enjoyable,: as to weather, of all the twelve. Yet cold storms of several days duration are fre- (•iitont, and if there are not such storms, warm, genial days are followed by chilly nights, -bringing a change so great, that only the most robust can endure it; and the foundation of serious illness is often laid at this time. At this season a fire, especially at night, is often needed for both comfort and health, and no house should be without a provision for it. While a fee in'ri` stove is vastly better than none at all, by all means, Where possible, have it in an open fireplace. Aside from its social effect, the air of cheerfulness which a fire on the hearth brings with it, such a fire also beings ventilation, a change of air, a removal of dampness and stanatiou, such as a close stove does not afford. In' our climate we rarely have a month, even in summer, in which, a fire is not at times needed. Were the provisions for' making it more general, we should hear much -less of em al >,ria. t' Mal -aria means bad air; good air conics with an open fire, as well as brightness and cheerfulness.—.A.eierteals Art rioaclturist for September. .
