8 k\ afl ^THUBSPgY. JAOTABY 11. 1917 PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT. .-fc'To Prevent Cold*. Dr.-Eugene L. Fisk of the Life 'Extension institute, in New York city, suggests that oneof the best methods 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. Is. as silly to weaken your resist ance by coddling as it is to be over-Spartan. The skin can be *fjfr 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 light underclothing all the year round for another whose phy sique is not so hardy or who |-*'-hits chronic heart or kidney &pu- ble such a course is fojly. It is .'as harmful to expose youiMlf too much as it is te.wej|n your resistance by. bunaaB^up. 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 autobiography, while the elder poet stood leaning on the. gate. -a party of wide eyed sightseers ap peared. "What a vulgar people the English sate!" Tennyson exclaimed. "Theytcome hare to watch for me, and when they ee me they say quite loudly. There's -Tennyson!*" Mr.,Austin afterward repeated this to Lady Tennyson, who smiled- tenderly. la archly. "My husband would be much more annoyed If the people didn't come," =aesald. Invented the Cheek System. John Palmer, who died some years ago In rather straitened circumstances In a little town in Michigan, was the inventor of the check system. Palmer 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 be gave 'ji ^numbered checks for the articles, com Emitted to his care. Some railroad men who attended one of the dances noticed liow 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 itPhiladelphia Press. Making a Hot Compress. In the American Journal of Nursin? Elizabeth Robertson gives the follow ing directions for making a hot com .press: Wet the compress with tepi water, then iron it rapidly with aver hot flatiron. This produces sufflcie -steam to hold more heat and obviat the necessity of wringing out exec sively hot cloths. The Money Power.

Mr.Landlord, I know many tenants 3 If your house or flat i vacant rent it through my far rent columns in the 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 Yalois, 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, being 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 lish authority in France. Bigger Game. Booth Tarkington, while in New York recently, was discussing the sub ject ofl debt with a playwright friend known'for impecunfousness.

Stain Waste Effort Elevators and other conveyances uti lized ordinarily for, handling materials may be used also to conserving the strength and increasing the efficiency of the workpeople. It is nothing less than stupid.to make tired employees cltmh^own several flights of stairs at the" end of a long day's work when thereTare elevators available and even more stupid to make these people climb up the stairs in the morning, using unnecessarily a large amount ot 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.

Light has an actual mechanical pries 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.- 000'tons. 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 force 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."
