These roads have been in operation all this time

Danger in Busters,

The modern subject of germs has brought
to light a great number of avenues through
which the causes of disease may come in
contact with the body. The feather buster
is evidently an excellent means of keeping
germs stirred up and floating about in the
air SO as to facilitate their incubation,
Evidently the use of this article in the sick
room is wholly out of place. Housewives
and chambermaids should invariably pro-
tect the mouth and nose by tying a hand
kerchief over them, or by employing some
other form of strainer for the breath.
whenever the use of the buster is required.
n after the duster has been used the
doors and windows should be open to
allow a free circulation of air until the
floating dust has been removed. A room
occupied by consumptives should never
be busted in this way, as there is great
danger of inhaling the air containing
germs of the disease, and thus communi-
eating the affection to well persons. I'm.
doubtedly, consumption has frequently
been caught in this way.-Good Health.
