ron which nobody has succeeded in
getting out of them and off from them.
Every careful housekeeper knows the
smell. She knows that nothing kills
it; that "renovating" doesn't; that
airing only takes off the worst Of it;
that airing every day is necessary, and
that no amount of airing is effectual.
She can find out, by trying, that bak-

worse. 1t doesn't come from damp.
ness then; but it does come from car
ron. And why shouldn't it? The
cleanest feathers in the world have
some dried flesh and blood in them,
and warmth and dampness bring out
of them gases and smells.
The medical world have been trying
for years to get rid of feathers, because
of the danger of breathing all night,
every night, air laden with carron.
But there is no substitute. People will
be comfortable, and feathers are soft.

whatever filth came off from them or
out of them, dried on them again. 1t

couldn't get away.

just so long as that remains they are
unfit for use. In the Cold Blast
System all this is Obviatcd. AT
ter the washing process, and while all
deleterious substances are soft and but
slightly adhering, the feathers are
whirled through an immense revolv-
ing cold-blast machine, travelling miles
of space during the process with the
velocity of the wind, until all the OBJ
noxious particles are removed and the
feathers come out absolutely clean,
pure and sweet. Briefly, then, COLD
BLAST FEATHERS are superior to
all others, because

cess removes from four to seven lbs. of
filth, refuse and carron matter from

Complaint has been made to us in
regard to fast driving on the streets
at night, and especially in the bust
ness portion of the city. Fast driv.

the officials should stop every person
who drives his team on the streets al
an unlawful rate and make him drive
slower.
