Summer Beds and bedrooms.

How many will glance at the title OF
this and think, well, the writer cannot
tell me anything about that but what
I know already, But ] think there
may be some that do not know ofhow
much Importance sunlight is in their
rooms and on their beds. / know
most people have sometimes in their
lives slept on beds and in rooms that
had a queer, musty smell. I have, and
l have made it q point not to have
such beds around in my house since I
have had house. How few
sun their beds! Now stop and
think back. Do you sun your bed once
O. week, or do you open your win
dows and let sunlight in your bed
rooms? I make it my first act, after
all have gotten out Of bed at morning,
to raise, the sash, throw back the
blinds and let the blessed, sweet sun
shine in the room. You never smell
anything musty there. OF course I
don't do the same on mornings when
It is damp and rainy. -
I think if every honsekeeper realized
the Importance Of this matter in re-
gard to the health OF their families,
know they would be more careful to
let in the sun. Some think that air is
enough, and let their sashes up and
keep the blinds closed all the time
But I think the sun ought to be let in
as much as possible. If you sleep on
a feather bed, sun it at least two or
three times week. I was told by a
honsekeeper once that the hot sun on
afeather-bed would draw all thelife out
Of the feathers, but find lit just there
verse. #.s.}E
If everybody would be more careful
about this summing Of bedrooms, and
other rooms, too, there would be ever
so many cases less Of fever, etc. This
is especially true of towns. So many
in town think that if they open their
blinds and doors and let in sun and air
and health, that it will otbe citifed.
Go in the country and you will be more
than likely to see the difference in the
looks OF the doors and windows, You
invariably find them open. I was
raised on farm, and remember well
my thoughts OF this matter when got
old enough to notice it when going in
to towns. It struck my childish mind
that the houses must be very dull and
lonesome. Since grown, have noticed
it more, and it I live to be an old, old
woman shall alwaysl let in plenty OF
sun and air, and know that / let in
health by dong go. Home Compan-

This was their migrating and breed

] Experience and Incident.

An illustration of the constant pos
sibility Of danger from the use Of P arts
Green with the carelessness Of it's IA
tai quality which familiarity begets--
is afforded by two recent experiences
reported from Pennsylvania. At
Freemansburg fifteen persons, and
later at Easton, a whole family, were
poisoned by eating strawberries. The
sufficient explanation appeared in the
discovery that the fine particles Of the
deadly arsenite had been carried in
the air from potato fields not far
away ard lodged upon and "been alb
sorbed BY the fruit. Prompt medi-
cal aid prevented fatalities. 8 The en-,
ployment Of Paris green and London
purple against insects should be dis:
couraged, rather than fostered, by
practical ent onlologists. Pyrethrum,
the kerosene emulsion, and other
known agencies ought to serve as sub
stitutes and search be continued for
new resources Of dest ructi lion con1para-
lively harmless to- human beings.
Meanwhile, it Isl well TO rememb Der that
Mr.. Terry, the potato specialist Of
Ohio, has demonstrated by years of
successful practice that hand picking
Of the Colorado beetles is not only as
effective as, but less expensiys than,
the s1perilous stuff so, commonly and
often cklessly, broad casted to save
the crop. III !}s 4 $50. II # Vi 5
