A SICK ROOM.
| This Is an Institution That All weIl-Regu-
lated Residences Should Possess.

l9IeU heS1UenceS should POSSESS.
Every large family would be the
gamer by having a special room in
case OF sickness, says the New York
Ledger. just how and where this
should be situated depends altogether
on circumstances. II it is a large
family, with plenty of means, it is
recommended that the room be in the
top OF the house and in the southeast
corner, with large windows, a pleas
ant outlook, and an abundance OF
sunlight and air. Every necessary
appliance should be at hand. Water
and drainage are among the most
important One country family,
where modern sanitary ideas are very
well carried out, has room built at
the top of the house, with the effect
Of large square lower. This room
has register pipe, a water tank, and
drainage pipe which is connected
with an independent cesspool far out
of reach Of the yard or garden and it.
self has drainage into porous subsoil.
Any illness that seems at all OBJ
scure is signal for removing the pa
tient to the lower chamber, which is
voted the most delightful room in
the house. A force pump supplies an
abundance of water. There are q
bath tub, closets, and all the re-
quirements of the invalid's depart
ment. The tower, being practically
fourth story of the house, has been
arranged with a lift, operated by
strong pulleys. one at each corner Of
the box, which is in dumb-waiter
fashion. II the caretaker is heavy
person there are extra weights to at
tach, and there is also a cord and a
tackle pulley from the middle of the
box to strong cross beam in the
roof and corresponding one below.
BY this means the speed and lifting
capacity Of the appliance are easily
controlled. The cost of the thing is
a mere tri1e compared with it's con-
venience, and as in one corner of the
box there is rack for tray, it is
easy to do all the necessary running
up and down stairs.
A well adjusted bell from the sick
room to the sitting room below has a
cord within reach of the sick PERSONS
hand. This room is available not
only for the actual sick, but for the
weary one who wants to get away
from noise and goes up and locks her
door with a sense OF comparative Sc
curity from interruption. 1t is not
only the invalid's room, but in days
of health the restful annex for SOW
eral members of large and busy
household.

Woman's Press Association.


The meetings of the Kansas Woman's
Press association we're held at the capt.
tol. The attendance was small, owing
partly to the fact that the fall election
was SO near at hand, and also that many
of the ladies were unable to leave home
again after their attendance at the
worlds fair.
The constitution was amended in ref
erence to the time of holding the annual
meetings, and request was made to the
incoming executive committee that the
next should be held the day before the
annual meeting Of the State Editorial
association and at the same place.
The officers elected for the ensuing
year are as follows:
Mrs Flora P. Hogbin, late of the Sar-
betha Herald, president
Mrs Susie B. Junkin, Sterling Bulle-
tin, president
Miss Zu Adams. Topeka, secretary.
Mrs Mary L. Rupe, Clyde Herald,
treasurer.
Mrs Minnie d. Morgan, ofAthe Chase
county Leader, was requested by the as
ISOLATION to prepare paper on some OF
the needed reforms in newspapers.
Four Kansas bankers attended the
meeting in Chicago of the National
Bankers association, John R. Mulvane,
of Topeka, George S. Turner of La
Cygne, W. c. Robinson OF Winfield, and
Lee Clark of Parsons. No action was
taken by the delegates that is of special
interest to Kansans. Bank Commission
er Breidenthal was also of the Kansas
party.
The sales of stamps at the Topeka
postofice during October were the
smallest of any month during the wear.
The sales amounted to about $4,000,
which is about $500 less than during
July when they were the smallest No
particular cause is assigned. The re-
port of the last three months business
shows that 14,2O0.55 has been made
clear of expenses
Phil Gilman, of North Topeka, says
some of the officers looking for McNoun,
the crarzy man came out and stayed at
his house, across the street from Nc
Nouns, put up their horses and went to
bed. The crazy man might have COM
mitted depredations easily without APP
prehension. 1t is claimed he has no
antipathv for anyone but the members
of his immediate family, especially his
brothers. and he declares that they
swindled him out of one-ninth of the
estate. The Matthews Bros. who do
not understand the word fear, are will
ing to go after him if 800 reward be
offered. The people in and around
Rochester have been terrified since the
McNoun affair and take every precau-
tion against an attack.
The next matter of general Importance
to be considered by the state board Of
railroad commissioners is the application
of the business men of Wichita for rates
of freight on coal on the basis now given
to Missouri river points. The applica-
ton covers the same features as the case
recently decided by the board, in which
a new rate was granted on farm imple-
ments. After disposing of the coal ques-
ton the board will then take up the ap-
plication for similar rates on lumber.
