Extreme Conditions.
The icusons for adopting tho maxi
mum figures nro the extreme condi
tions that exist, which are Illustrat
ed from various quotations from lot
(era I have received ficuii truvclfiii;
salesman from n Honolulu house,
for examplo ("It tabes four Rood
horses and n Rood driver to tnko u

tu bo about S25 pounds per ton at
their present condition, und this i
blslanco Bhould he about 100 iouuds
per ton on tin oidiuaiy dirt road, tlim
note the excess horai energy due lo
IKior roada.
To inoo a load over an ordinary
dirt ro.nl requlies a Iractlvn foice of
100 pnuiids per ton, mid therefore the
nveragu two horso team of 1203 Kjuuda

Iho 4 horso team la c.ipdhlo of doing,

samu team has 11 maximum tractive

"THE TAYLOR NURSERY" was de
signed for the purpose of covering the
needs of the sleeping, resting baby
from birth to three years and over, and
aids the mother in Innumerable ways
to preserve baby's health as well as her
own. It Is tho only baby bed that helps
care for the baby, night and day.
THE SAFETY.HOOD absolutely pre
vents baby falling out or climbing out,
and Is also a perfect device for holding
up a mosquito netting off of baby, out
of doors or in. ..Spiders and mosquitoes
can not then reach the baby, who lies
safely within. The hood Is also splendid
to hold a comforter if you want lo dark
en the bed for baby's sleep, or to pre
vent draughts of cold air.
Notice that "THE TAYLOR NUR
SERY" Is high. It goes over the
Mother's bed, and the frame slides un
derneath, taking op no room.
THERE'S A SANITARY NIOHT
BOX at one side 'of the bed In which
to keep clean napkins, powder, and oth
er baby toilet articles. The Night Box
has a lid, so that soiled napkins can
be closed in tightly, thus avoiding
odors and the necessity of mother get
ting out of bed after she has retired.
