Now is the time when those who are !ertun‘!o enough to have some varlety rch or plazsa naturally turn their ntenuon to arranging it comfortably and attractively. The back porch will afford the lrutut comfort to the house- wife. She can out there to shell peas. -trlnt eans pare apples, do hand-sewing or embroldery, or work at any task which may be done outdoors. The fortunate owner of an upstairs p can take the sewing machine out there at busy times. mock made at home out of a spring cot would be just the thing for a housewife's retreat on the back porch. It would be much better than an ordl‘ nary hammock for this purpose, as it wonld servi work table and & ham- mock as well. Take the legs off and turn them up, nailing securely and con- necting them with & strip of wood o back. Hang by means of a heavy rope ;nd tack striped ticking on the ends and and cover entirely with any preferred |summer wash material. Beside afford- ing a place to work, t ham- mock would be ideal for that daily half- hour afternoon nap. 1f your house is not built with a back porch. a good substitute may be made y enclosing the outer door and steps with lattice work with growing vines over it. In this cool retreat a small table and a chair make a comfortable working place away from tne heat or the stove. Porek Furaiture. There is a wide range of choice in the matter of front porch furuiture, but un- less the porch is a Very large one, with a broad roof offering plenty of protec- tion to the things beneath, furniture should be chosen with an eye not only to comfort, but .also to durability when subjected to the weather. It must also be remembered that porch furniture is alwhys being moved around to the spot where one can get the best breese, and for this reason should mot be heavy or bulky. There is a wide variety of cholce in willow and wicker furniture for the porch, but it should be of the simplest design. Wicker is usually preferred to willow on account of its greater wearing qualities. Small chairs for children are often overlooked when fitting up a porch. It is not generally known that miniature sizes of all the well-known chair de- signs may be had from manufacturers. Do not use hot water or A strong alkali soap for cleansing wicker or willow chairs. Instead, dust the chalr and then scrub it lightly with tepid water containing a few drops or kerosene to remove hand-marks and grease. Naph- tha soap will not destroy the varnisn. Wipe the suds off and then dry the chair in the sun. A solution of oxalic acld and water can be used on unvarnished reed or willow furniture and the bleach- ing properties of the acid will make the articles look llke new. If the cane s droops, wash it with hot water l.lu'l turn it upside down to dry in the sun. It .will resume its former shape. Pretty and inexpensive run “for the porch may made from two yards of ting.

Thickening or enlargement of the adenoid body, which is a third tonsil in the celling of the throat up out of sight above the soft balate, is called | noids,” but should not be called enold growths” for it is merely an enlargement of a normal tonsil-like structure, akin to enlarged tonnln, which are usually seem accompanying adenoids. According to an old theory, certain children have a mutllil‘llllonhl ten- de: toward mrgv phl:gc tissues, in tonsils, ade. noid body, appendix and elsewhere. It lee'nu more likely that the hygienic (or “lyll ic) environment and mn of dling with heat and clothing ip the actual cause of such a tendency. It is characteristic that in open-air schoolrooms adenoids oc- ut rarely as compared with the lence of the condition ventilated prison where children la. boriously acquire their A B C's. ‘With every insult of the upper res- piratory region, every fresh infec- or, as the superstitious old { women a d the politician health offi ! cer ®till calls it, “cold in the head, the adenoid body swells and its cells multiply to help fight the invading germs. After a series of such bat: tles the adenoid body remains perma. nently enlarged. So that our viclous practice of exposing children in the ‘schoolroom to such Infections—just because it happens that no doctor has labeled the disease diphtheria or scar- let fever or influensa or something— must be admitted a chief cause of adenolds. Enlargement of the adenoid body calls for surgical relief when the in- fant, child or adult has any impair- ment of hearing or earache or in- flammation in th middle ear or run- ning ear. Likewise surgical removal of the adenoids is required when the patient suffers ' frequently recumn' attacks of acute sore throat,’ ug adenoiditis, or acute corysa — for these attacks, though perhaps not se- vere, nevertheless menace health and life itself beca: of the serious com- ‘plications which are likely to occur— such as sinusitis, meningitis, middie ear suppuration, mastoiditis, arthriti: The Digestive Muscles. gestion as & cause of premature old age, ed—A Fourth of Jul}" TO GET THE GREATEST COMFORT AND SERVICE FROM YOUR PORCH Household iz Put in a mattress and pillows | throw the w.

To insure shade at all times on a porch, we are obliged to resort to awnings and screens, which, if well chosen, will add to rather than de tract from the tasteful effect. Awn- ings must always be chosen with an idea as to how the color will blend with that of the house. Greens, buffs #nd browns are the best tomes for ‘out outdoore.

Fourth of July Porch or Lawn Party. If grownups are to be entertained, one can give a party on the veranda or porch. Invitations to which may be painted in water colors. the dec- orations consisting of the American flag and some tiny firecrackers. In the center of the table have a large paper bell to represent the Libergy Bell, surmounted by a gilt eagle From the mouth of the national bird have tri-colored ribbons extending to tiny toy cannons which are attached tq place cards. The porch decora- tions may be either in Colonial colors of blue and gold or the patriotic col- ors of red. white and blue. White and blue liberty bells and bynting would add to the decorations. An _entirely different centerpiece may be used if preferred. composed of cherries and leaves. with cherries scattered over the tablecloth. With this centerpiece the table should b lighted with red, white and blue can- dles. Cards decorated with cherries in water callor may be used for place cards. or the cherries may be cut out of red crepe paper and appliqued onto the cards. Red geraniums. coraflow- ers and fleld daisies make an effective floral decoration and could be used in place of the cherry centerpiece. Patriotic Refreshments. The refreshments could include iced bouillon with nut wafers, sliced cold meat, sweetbread salad in tomato jelly cups, each decorated with a tiny flag, radishes cut shield shabe and filled with cream cheese and chopped f | olives, and cherry or raspberry sher- bet served in high glasses with fancy hnleu.

Mouth breathing, wher due to ade- noids, leads to deformities in the de- velopment of the jaw. palate, nasal passages, face, chin, and chest. Mal- occlusion of the teeth Incident to the Jaw deformity interferes with proper mastication, and that means a train of troubles which seriously impair general nutrition and growth and handicap the child throughout life. The removal of adenoids is a very imple, and at the same time a very| ¢asily bungled operation. Many a doc- tor who makes no pretense of being & specialist all does a much more thorough operation for adenoids than many an eye-ear-nose-and-throat spe- cialist today. In no case should a child be -ub:ectad to such an opera- tion on the mers guess of a school nurse or any one else who has not felt the adenoid body with his finger in the pharynx or-seen its image in his throat mirror.

Infants a few weeks old not rarely have large adenoids and should be operated on. Adults often suffer from neglected adenoids and should be operated on. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. How to Make Lime Water.
