“THUESDAY. JANUARY 11, 1017. P S e X L X T X ¥ * #® PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT. To Prevent Colds. Dr.:Bugene L. Fisk of the Life ‘Extension institute, in New York ©¢ity, suggests that one of the best (net.hods for: preventing colds is to-breathe as much fresh air as .possible. A draft, he holds, is not.to.be feared unless it is ‘strong enough to be chilling. ‘It iq as silly to weaken your resist- ance by coddling as it is to be over-Spartan. The skin can be “trained to help resist germ in- fection, and one of the worst 'ways to train it is to work and live and sleep in overheated rooms. The same sort of rules apply to clothing.. Adapt.your. clothing to the condition of your . health and to the conditions of the weather. ' One man can wear Hght underclothing all'the year round; for another whose phy- sique is not so hardy or who ) chronic heart or kidney txou- ‘your resistance by bu Baths?

Once; when “the late “Alfred Austin had paid a visit to Tennyson, his im- “mediate predecessor, Tennyson walked with him as far as the gate which led ‘to the highway. There, says Alfred .'Austin in his'autoblography, while the :-elder poet stood leaning on the. gate, & party of wide eyed' sightseers ap- . “What a vulgar people the English . :are!” Tennyson exclaimed. *“They:come here to watch for me, and when they see me they say quite loudly, ‘There’s re * Mr. Austin afterward repeated this to IAAy Tennyson, who lmlled tenderly. "but archly. “My husband would be much more 1 “"“:annoyed ‘if the people ‘didn’t come,” Invented the Check System. John Palmer, who died some years -ago in rather straitened circumstances 4n a little town in Michigan, was the 4nventor of the check ‘system. Paliner ‘was a fiddler and assumed responsibil- ity for the hats, coats and wraps of those who came to his dancing parties. In keeping things straight he gave checks for the articles com- -mitted to his care. - Some rafiroad men ‘who attended one of the dances noticed ‘how perfectly the idea worked, appro- . ;priated it and in a short time it was adopted 'all over the country. As is -often the case, the inventor got noth- ,ing out of it.—Philadelphia Press. Making a Hot Compress. In the American Journal of Nursing Blizabeth Robertson gives the follow 4ng directions for making a hot com press: Wet the compress with tepi ‘water, then iron it rapidly with a ver hot flatiron. This produces sufficie steam to hold more heat and obviat the necessity of wringing out exce sively hot cloths. The Money Power. Braggs—It is positively absurd tc talk about a “money power” in thi: <country. There 1s no such thing ‘Waggs—I'd just like to discuss that with you. Have you got a minute to spare? Braggs—Not a minute. I've - got & note due at the bank, and they're The Hundred Years’ War. The origin of the Hundred Years’ ‘war was the king of England’s claim to the crown of France, Philip of France left three sons, all of whom died without issue, and the nearest male heirs were Edward IIL, who was the nephew of the three sons, and Philip de Valois, who was their cousin. The law in Edward’s claim is the Salic law, which passed over women, and Edward owed his blood relationship to his mother. Edward claimed that, though Salic law applied to his mother, belng a woman, it could not apply to him, being a man. On this dispute be- gan the war that lasted nearly a cen- tury, ending with the many victories of Joan of Arc, which crushed the Eng- lsh authority in France. Bigger Game. Booth Tarkington, while York recently, was discussing the sub- ject of:debt with a playwright friend known for impecunfousness. “About $1,200 would see me clear ol debt," id the playwright. “And I tell in New you,. k, 1f T.ever get out of debt once TIl never get $1,200 in' the hole again.. It will be $12,000 next time. No.more piker aIIIes for me."—Ntw York 'Globe. 'Stalrs Wasté Effort. Elevators and other conveyances uti- 1ized ordinarily for. handling materials may be used also in conserving the strength and increasing the efficiency of the workpeople. It is nothing less than stupld to make tired employees cllmbdown several flights of stairs at of a long dayn ‘work when thereiare elevators available and even more stupid to make these people climb up the stairs in the morning, using unnecessarily a large amount of energy which might otherwise help to tide them over the critical fatigue point during the day. It would be part of| wisdom to install elevators merely for use of the workers,‘even if they were of no use’.for handling = materials. Some of the best recently constructed mills have installed escalators for this purpose.—Engineering Magazine. A Domestic Interlude. Marriageable Daughter—I think, fa- ther, you do Arthur a great injustice ‘when you say that he is penurious. Precocious Brother — What's penuri- ous, father? Father—Why, penurious means close. Precocious Brother — Then you're right. That young man is awful penu- rious when he comes to-see Sis.—Ex- change. Willing to Bear It. . “Well, dearest, I have just asked your father for your hand.” “What did he say?” “He asked me if I felt capable of as- suming a heavy burden.” -“And what did you tell him?” “I told him I would take care of all he would give us.”—Bosjon Transcrlpt Furc- of Lunht. Light bas an actual mechanical pres- sure and can'be measured in the lab- oratory. It has been found that the sun’s light in itself presses against the earth with a force something like 70.- 0007tons. * As the surface of a sphere varies as the square of the radius, and as.the volume or mass varies as the cube of the radius, and as the me- chanical pressure of light on the whole surface varies as that surface, and as the force of gravity varies as the mass, if a sphere is made smaller and smaller it‘is easily seen that the pressure of light does not decrease so fast as the force of gravity, so bodies beyond a certain minuteness could not reach the sun, but would be repelled by the me- chanical fdrce of its light. Salesmanship. The mere selling of an article is not always proof of good salesmanship. One observer declares, “If a customer is persuaded into buying something she does not want she will not come back.” The best salesmanship is that which looks to the future—in other words, which is based on the sound policy of honesty.—Youth’s Combpanion.
