duetion of the expenditures. The
signal Office submits that the est.
mates heretofore laid before the
secretary were based upon consid-
erations of the most careful econ
omy and it is not believed they
can be properly reduced. The
subsistence department reports
that under existing circumstances
no reduction in the estimates can
be made. The ordnance provides
for a reduction in the estimates of
$34S, S34.79. The surgeon gener-
ais Office can submit to a reduc-
tion Of $4,000. The paymaster
general does not deem it safe to
recommend any reduction of the
amount appropriated for the cur
rent fiscal year. The paymaster
generals office cannot, without
detriment to the service, submit
to further reductions than those
made by the department in the
original estimates. The reports
conteRd that reductions
from former estimates would be
detrimental to the service, or else
submit comparatively small figures
in response to the desire of the
house for reductions thereof.

DANGER FRoM Wet CLOTHES
Few persons understand fully the
reason why wet clothes exert such
a chilling influence. 1t is simply
this: Water, when it evaporates,
carries of an immense amount OF
heat, in what is called the latent
form. One pound of water in va
por contains as much heat as nine
or ten pounds Of liquid water, and
all this heat must, of course, be
taken from the body. If oul
clothes are moistened with three
pounds of -water-that is, if by
wetting they are three pounds
heavier-these three pounds will
in drying, carry off as much hea
as would raise three gallons o
iee-coid water to the boiling point
No wonder that damp clothes chill
