The Vitalness of Combining 
Heat and Ventilation in One 
as the KELSEY Does 
V/OU are very particular not to drink water that has 
1 been standing long In a heated room because it has 
absorbed impurities from the air. Still you willingly 
breathe that same impure air and wonder why it is that 
you get drowsy when you sit down to enjoy your 
reading. 
Even if you do know the air is “heavy," if you open 
a window or door some other member of the family 
promptly complains of a “draught.” If you shut off 
the heat some one else (or the same one) says “it will 
be too cold.” 
The solution is to combine the heat and ventilation 
in one. The Kelsey Warm Air Generator does just 
that thing. 
It delivers to your rooms, large volumes of agree¬ 
ably heated fresh pure outdoor air, mixed with just the 
desired amount of moisture You get air full of ox¬ 
ygen, free from gases or dust and that will heat any 
room at any time no matter what the weather. 
Furthermore you will burn one third to a half less coal 
than with a steam or hot water system. We can prove 
it. You can buy the Kelsey of your local dealer. 
Send to us for catalog, tell what your heating problem 
is and we will advise as to its heating requirements.

particular enthusiasm. Nevertheless, this 
volume of Mr. Ross’s is deserving of at¬ 
tention, for it is at least an addition to a 
valuable type of literature. We cannot but 
feel that a partial elimination of the some¬ 
what ponderous verbiage employed would 
be advantageous, in that it would leave 
room for more practical, boiled-down in¬ 
formation ; but perhaps that is a hyper¬ 
critical view to take. There are valuable 
suggestions as to the organizing and carry¬ 
ing out of an anti-flv campaign. 
Botany for Secondary Schools. By 
L. H. Bailey. Illustrated. 8vo, pp. 465. 
New York: The Macmillan Company. 
$1.25 net. 
A text book pure and simple, whose pur¬ 
pose, as the author states, “is to lead the 
pupil to an understanding of the vegetation 
of his neighborhood.” It contains many 
valuable suggestions for the teacher, and 
is divided into four general parts: the na¬ 
ture of plants themselves, the relations of 
plants to their surroundings, histological 
studies, and determination of the kinds of 
plants. 
Baby Birds at Home. By Richard 
Kearton, F.Z.S. 8vo. Illustrated with 
colored plates and photographs by Cherry 
and Grace Kearton. Pp. 128. New York: 
Cassell & Co., Ltd. 
About sixty-five species are described 
in this book on English birds. The aim is 
to interest young readers in the birds about 
them, emphasis being laid on nestlings and 
fledglings. The photographs, on the whole, 
are good, some of them comparing favor¬ 
ably with the best work of wild bird photo¬ 
graphers in the United States.

They eliminate the need to use mats and shutters, thus 
saving half the cost of equipment and labor. They give 
the plants all the light and save the stored heat overnight 
thus making them grow steadily without forcing. 
The inexpensive double-glazed 11x12 ft. greenhouse is 
covered with the Sunlight Sash which are removable for 
repairs or to use on hot-beds or cold frames in their season. 
The house, though double-glazed, is always kept bright

Garden Flowers as They Grow. By 
H. H. Thomas. 8vo, pp. 197. Twenty 
plates photographed in color from nature. 
New York: Cassell & Co., Ltd. 
There are good practical suggestions 
and information in this book on some of 
the popular garden flowers, although the 
text is not quite as adequate as we might 
like. The colored plates are uniformly 
good, and give a much better concep¬ 
tion of the appearance of the different 
flowers than could any amount of written 
description. 
Chats on Cottage and Farmhouse 
Furniture. By Arthur Hayden. 8vo. 
Illustrated. Pp. 350. New York: Fred¬ 
erick A. Stokes Co. 
A book for the lover and collector of 
old furniture who does not care to pay the 
often exorbitant prices which the more 
pretentious examples of the old English 
work bring. As the author says, “There 
is a peculiar pleasure as well as a wide field 
for study in the so-called minor work of 
farmhouse and cottage furniture of olden 
times,” and he has embodied in his book, 
not only much valuable information, but 
also considerable interesting history. The
