Why Overheat Yourself?
"Much of your summer
pleasure depends upon having
a cool and comfortable kitch
en. Why not be prepared for
hot days before they come ?
Ask your dealer to show
the New Perfection Wick

It's a wonder.
Does the work of your big
range in every particular, but
has this greatadvantage over it, that

paring a meal in less time than you'd do it on
the coal range, and 'then sitting down at table
with the family not overheated, but entirely

THE CHINAMAN AND HIS IDOLS.
Appaali for Aid That Are Chiefly a
Matter of Bualntaa.
How the Chinaman regard! bit Idol
la told by the Rev. Johu MacGowan:
"Tho Chinese la a person utterly de
void of reverence, aentlment pr devo
tion In hlH religion. With hltn It Is a
matter either of fear or of buslnnss,
but mainly of the latter; A bouse Is
plagued with sickness, which Is put
down not to bad sanitation or other
uaturul causba, but to tho presence of
evil spirit. . Thin leads to a visit to
the nearest temple to get the Idol to
drive them away. A new business la
going to be commented, b it bt'fore do
.ng so It Is deemed essential to gjt the
support of the Idols. If one Idol nays
It will not succeed, another Is appealed
to for Us opinion, and If It Is favorable
It Ih at once atccyted as the correct
one.
"Should the venture turn out a fail
ure, no re;: oac!i f my kind" Is uttered
against the god wLosj prediction hns
been( falsified. The man takes the
blame upon, himself. Ills character
has not been pure, be says, or ho was
born under an evil star, or he was nat
urally unlucky and so was bound to
fall la anything that he undertook.
"Men never dream of thinking about
their Idols as we do about Qod. No
affection la shown for them. It Is most
amusing to watch the faces of the Chi
nese when you ask them If the Idols
lore them. The eyes gleam, the face
broadens Into a wide grin and soon
hearty laughter Is beard at this most
facetious and side-splitting Joke."
INFANT WEIGHED 48 POUNDS. I
Largest Baby on Record Recently Ad
mitted at Ellis laland.
The largest Infant for Its age ever
passed by the Immigration authorities
was registered at Ellis Inland recently.
The child, 11 months old, Is as large
as the average - youngster of four
years, and weighs as much as some
children of eight and ten. -
When the mother, Mrs. Anna Kra
Vet, who was a passenger In the steer
age of the St. Paul, told the Inspectors
that the child a girl was only 11
months old they asked her several
times If she was not mistaken. She
had answered the question in English
and, to be certain that there was no
mistake, an interpreter asked her to
Yiddish.
"Yea," she says, "It Is not a yeai
old, but will be next month," said the
Interpreter. The Inspectors and oth
ers at the Island gathered and viewed
the strange sight. The mother said
the child had been weighed aboard the
St. Paul, where It had attracted much
attention. Its weight Is 48 pounds.
Mrs. Kravet Is 24 years old. The
baby Is her first born. The father of
the child, who preceded his wife to
this country, lives In Boston. He came
from there to meet her. The head of
the child Is nearly as large as that of
Its father.
"Yes. she's a fine girl, little Annie,"
said the proud father, as he lifted tho
child In his arms and carried It away,
staggering under the load. They took
the 5:30 boat for-Doston.
Airships Could Do Little Damage.
Hudson Maxim contends that tha
use of airships In war does not hold
forth any terrifying prospects. Th
dropping of dynamite from such ves
sels, he says, might cause some super-
nciai destruction, nut it must pene
trate and explode Inside battleships
and earthworks to do really great dam
age. Half a ton of that explosln
aroppea upon tne rour-incn aeck or a
battleship might kill some men, wreck
part of the superstructure of the vessel
and dent the deck, but 4he destruction
would not be extensive.. Nor would
the dropping of such a charge on coast
fortifications cause serious damage,
the action of dynamite being such that
the blast, being unconftned, would re
bound into the air In the form of an In-
venea cone, so mat tne effect in a
horizontal plane would be small.
German Fable of the Pansy.
A pretty fable about the pansy la
current among the peasants in Gen
many. In most pansles, especially oi
the earlier and less highly developed
varieties, two or tne nve petals are
plain In color and three are gay. They
represent a family consisting of hus
band, wife and four daughters, two of
the latter being stepchildren of the
wife. The plain petals are the step
children, with only one chair that Is.
one petal between them. The two I
small gay petals are the daughters.
with a chair each. The large gay
petal is the wife, with two chairs. To
find the father one must strip away
the petals until the stamens and pis
tils are bare. They have a fanolful
rvaemoiance to an old man with a
flannel wrap about his neck, his shoul-
iers upraised and his feet la a bath

Thackeray's Thoughtfulneas.
Mr. It. C. Lehmann quotes from hit
father s reminiscences this note on
Thackeray's Inst utterance: "He was
to have dinod with me on the day after
he was taken 111, and his daughter,
Mrs. Richmond Ritchie, haB told m
that when she left him on the evening
before he died tbe last words she ever
beard him speak were, Tell Leh

Has Many Relations. In Navy.
Mrs. Evans, the wife of the great
military commander, has many naval
relatives. Three of her brothers were
In the navy, her son Frank is also
in the navy, and her two daughters
studied for the Red Cross service.
Her great-grandfather was one of the
heroes of the revolution, but her fa
ther was a scholarly man, who kept

Pretty much everyone thinks he

affin. Now the latter country uses
the so-called Hefner unit ot light, the
amount given by a certain form of
lamp burning acetate of amyl. An
other lamp standard,, called the carcel,
was used In France. In this purified
rape seed oil is burned. Because of
this - unsatisfactory International
chaos, It is now proposed that our na
tlonal bureau of standards at Wash
ington take steps to establish a stand

be acceptable to at least nine coun
tries. The joint committee of gas and
electrical engineers which Is urging
this standardization declares that the
change could be made with very little
disturbance ot most of tbe national
standards now in existence.
MOTHERS WITH LITTLE SENSE.
Impatient at Those Who 8eek
Remtdy Childish Defects.
to
Members of tha committee of the
physical welfare of New York achool
children Bay that It Is not only the
children of the poor who need to be
examined for physical defects; the
children of the well-to-do often need It
quite as much.
"It Isn't only the children ot the
poor who are neglected," Bald one man
who has been on tbe committee since
Uts Inception. "On the upper West
side, for Instance, among the children
of people who are xery, comfortably
fixed many have been found who need
ed medical care and had not had it
"And the curious thing Is that some
of these parents are furiously angry
when Informed that their children have
bad teeth, defective vision or diseased
throats. I remember one woman who
was notified that her little-girl had
been discovered by the school doctor,
or achool nurse, I don't know which,
to have adenoids. ' The mother came
over to tell the principal of that
school what she thought about such
Interference.
"'I don't need any school authori
ties to tell me that my child has
adenoids,' she said. 'If there's any
thing the matter with my child's
throat, I guess I can find It out with
out any assistance from .the school.' "

TRAITS OF AUSTRALIAN GIRLS.
Equally at Home In Saddle ar
room, Says Writer. .
all-'
Many Australian girls live right ip
In the bush, or "stations." which are
miles away from any town or Tillage,
ind their time la largely occupied with
riding and driving; they ar aa much
at home on a horse as a duok Is In
tha water, and think nothing at riding
?0 miles or ao to pay a visit, says a
writer In Woman. Household duties
claim a share of their time, however,
and any day they art . liable to be left
without servants and with a house
full of visitors, but are la ao wise
daunted by such an occurrence. Thea
the bush girl comes down to tha capi
tal for the aeasoa, and 'far from ap
pearing a country bumpkin or a tom
boy after her tree and opea-air life, aha
la as much at home In a ballroom aa
any town-bred girl, aa neat and well
dressed as If she had sever ridden
barebacked over wild tracts of country
with little thought ot appearances. '
FOR PIMPLES, TOO
New Discovery Cures Eczema ' and
Eradicates Minor Skin Troubles

poslam, the new discovery for the cure
of eczema, decided to allow the drug'
gists of the country to handle it. Pre
vious to that time It could only be ob
tained direct from the laboratories.
Since this change In the method of
distribution, poslam has met with the
most phenomenal success of anything
introduced to the drug trade in tho
last 30 years. All leading druggists,
Including W. L. Gokay In Bennington
are now carrying the special 50 cent
size recently adopted, also the $2 Jar.
This great success is not surprising
when.lt Is remembered that. In ec
zema caaos, poslam stops the Itching
with first application, proceeds to heal
Immediately, and cures chronlo cases
In a few weeks. In minor skin trou
bles, such as pimples, blackheads, ac
ne, herpes, blotches, rash, etc., results
show "after an overnight application.
Experimental samples of poslam aro
sent to anyone by mall free of charge
by the Emergency Laboratories, a
West Twenty-fifth street New York
City.
