10 SAFETY FIRST Health from the Sun! Our dwellings ought freely to admit the sunlight. Diseases which have baffled the skill of physicians have been known to yield when the patients were removed from dark rooms to light and cheerful apartments. Lavoisier placed light, as an agent of health, even before pure air. Plants which grow in the shade are slender and weak, and children brought up in dark rooms are pale, sallow, and rickety. It is a bad practice to avoid the sunlight through fear of spoiling the complexion, since the sun's rays are necessary to give to it the delicate tints of beauty and health. Air is necessary for the first inspiration and the last expiration of our lives, but the purity and healthfulness of the atmosphere depend upon the warming rays of the sun, while our bodies require light in order that their functions may be properly performed. We know that without solar light, there can be nc proper vegetable growth, and it is equally necessary for the beauty and perfection of animal development. Our dwellings should therefore be wel1 lighted and made as bright and cheerfu as possible. The skin of persons con fined in dungeons or in deep mines be comes pale or sickly yellow, the blood grows watery, the skin blotches, and dropsy of ten intervenes. On the other ."¦land, invalids carried out from dark *ned chambers into the bright sunligh are stimulated, the skin browns, nutri tion becomes more active, the blood improves, and they become con valescent. Light is especially neces sary for the healthy growth of children There is nothing more beautiful anc exhilarating than the glorious sunlight Let its luminous, warming, and physio logical forces come freely into our dwell rigs, enter into the chemistry of life animate the spirits, and pervade ouj homes and our hearts with its joy inspiring and health-imparting influ ences.
