    , I of House Ventilation foe which his own system , named ' the Banner System , ' has received a large measure of public approval . The importance of

    the subject has been recently brought home to the public mind by the occurrence of blood-poisoning during CJthe convalescence of the Duchess of

    Connaught , and there are , it is to be feared , very few persons in tho range of whose private acquaintance similar instances of disease directly attributable

    to sewer gas June not occurred . Mr . Banner gives evidence from clergymen as to the benefit resulting from tho application of his principles to

    tho ventilation of churches , and he also adds a chapter on the ventilation of railway carriages , which , in these days of constant travelling and

    long journeys , is a matter of almost equ . il importance . From Messrs . "Wade & Co . — RiiSHoH ' a ' Free
