In these days when so many citi zens are coughing and sneezing, Dr. C. Lincoln Furbush. director of pub lic health, comes forward with a sug gestion that should keep many re cruits from the “wheeze and blow” brigade- In brief, “don’t overheat your home.” “An overheated home,” says the director, “is a poorly ventilated one. In order that all indoor atmosphere be healthful it should be maintained at a temperature of 65 to 68 degrees Fahrenheit with sufficient amount of moisture to bring about comfort The power of the air to absorb and retain heat depends largely upon the amount of moisture in it. When the amount of moisture is decreased there is required a higher degree of heat to give it the desired sensation or warmth and comfort. “The bedroom windows should be kept open throughout the night, the amount of opening depending upon the individual requirements. No heating system is efficient until it is combined with adequate ventilation, which adds moisture to the dry air, carries away tii contaminated at mosphere. and supplies fresh, healthy outdoor air.” CAMBRIDGE MANUFACTURING COMPANY GOAL COAL Just Arrived— . ■ . ■ i One Car Lump Coal For— FURNACE RANGE, ETC Mixed with Anthracite Goal it will help with any Goal Stove.
