Sleeping Under Feathers,

Years ago VIC used to smile with con.
scious superiority ut the idea of the
Dutch sleeping under feather bed in
stead Of over it. The idea of sleeping
upon hard mattress and climbing I'M
der a soft one seemed rather an ana
chronism and n singular perversion Of
common sense. but the Introduction Of
down or feather comfortables is simply
the utilization Of that knowledge OF
things which some Of the older countries
had long ngo known. Feathers are ex-
ceedingly warm. and a covering made Of
them superinduces and retains the heat
in the human body.
A curious claim is now made for n new
comfortable of down. The makers as-
sert that their product retains all the
natural warmth. but allows the impure
air to escape from the bed, how or
wherefore we arc not informed

Color Protection Prom Intense Heat.
With reference to the protective effect
of certain colors against the suns Eays,
years ago on my way to India the second
time. having already bsen invaiided
home once from the Effects IF the sun.
it occurred to me to try the photogra-
piers plan. reasoned to myself that
since no one ever got sunstroke OF sun
fever from exposure 10 n dark source of
heat or even to one which, though lumi-
nous. possessed no great degree OF Chem
ical energy-the furnaces in the arsenal,
for example-it could not he the heat
rays. therefore. which injured one. but
must he the chemical ones only.
If therefore one treats ones own body
as the photographer treats his plates
and cnvelops ones self in yellow or
dark red. one ought to lie practically Sc
cure. and since the photographed lined
the inside Of his tents and belongings
with yellow it WIS obviously ilmnlaterial
whether one wore yellow inside o.. out.
had my hats and coats lined Witty
low, and with most satisfactory results,
for during five years and even extreme
exposure never once did the yellow lin
ing fail rne. but every time that either
through care!cssness or ovcrcenfidence
l forgot the prccaution very short ex-
posture sufiiccd to send me down with
the usual sun fever. Many friends tried
the plan and all with the same satisfac-

z5sa S,s,tinetion Between Several Words
end Now They May BE Used.
An interesting discussion is going on in
the columns of some newspapers over
the use of tho words lady" and '.wom-
an" There Is no real difference a. to
the occasions upon which each word Is
to b used. but there is frank acknowi-
edgmcnt upon the part of some that they
do not use the word woman where
their good sense tells them that they
should. for fear that it might give Of
fcnsc to tho person, to whom It was di.
rectcd las not Sufficiently polite"
There are certainly no words so abused
"a woman" lady" and female"
Among certain People the use of the Sec
ond Of these terms Is like the wearing Of
finc clothes or ;jewelry. Originally be
longing to o superior class they insist on
appropriating It to themselves as proof
that they are the equals of any other so
cial body. Now, while all that may he
true enough and while class distinctions
have no place in this country this use of
the word has led to some strange and
amusing COMMISSIONS. The hum6rist who
depicted the servant rs addressing her
mistress, ''Afam, tho laundry lady is
a-wanting to speak to the woman of the
house," did not have to depend upon his
imagination for his facts.
As absurd things as that may be heard
in any one of the large dry goods stores
in town any dag, and almost any news
paper will yield a rich specimen or two.
Bishop Warren. referring to this same
point. says that no glanced at the wall
opposite him at the moment and saw a
diploma from the 60 Female acade-
my" and then turned to y bookcase and
read as the title of one of the volumes
there, Female Holiness" In the report
of . southern woman's Christian tenn
perance union convention appears the
fact that Mrs. Blank was chairlady."
Now tho proper word i'll all this is
woman" That is always and ever
right. Than it there is no noblcr O.
stronger word in the English language.
Man" is a general word as well as n
particular one. and ~ such includes both
sexes, SO that the term chairman" sig
nifies 10 subscrviencc of one sex ITO the
domination Of the other. If called upon
to address stranger, n woman, then the
proper word is madam" and not lady,
this way" and "lady, that way" IS so
many ushers appear to think to be the
only solution to the problem of address
"Fonalc" is never to be used as syno-
nym of woman" 1t is term common
to one-half of the animal creation, and to
apply it to woman as the substantive of
designation is an insult Lady" is ap-
plicablc to every well bred and educated
woman, but it is something that is re-
served rather for social usage and has
not the sturdy strength and nobility of

The number Of bacteria present In milk

the temperature. Estimates nude upon

from aoo,ooO.O00 to 60OoOO.0O0 to the quart
The effect Of temperature Is shown by an
experiment. A specimen Of milk which hnd

bacteria per quart while that exposed TO
high temperature collected 1000 600 Of
these microscopic creatures In less than a

species Of bacteria have been found in nor

This large number is due TO the fact that
