Was There a Female Adams

To the Editor:
In answer to where Cain got his wife, we nnd
in Genesis t.. a. that God created man in
his own image. male and female created he
them"
In the second chapter eighteenth verse, God
said 1t is not good that the man should be alone
| will make him an helpmeet for him.
In verse y the rib which the good Lord God
had taken from man made he a woman and
brought her unto the man. in chapter v. verse Q.
male and female created he them, and called
their names Adam in the day when they were
created"
Now We find that God created the male and
female Adam at the same time: that Adam was
put into the Garden OF Eden to dress and keep
1t. 1t is then we find him alone. Then Eve was
made mot crested), more beautiful to look upon.
1t is supposed by some that the woman that
was created. not being pleasing to Adam. he
banished her to a strange land. and that she
became the wife OF Cain. There be no doub,
that Eve not the first woman. but like many
other things It is past finding out Let who will
give us further light. G. REX

Don't use a stiff brush. Hard, wiry
bristles make the gums sore and cause
them to recede. Don't buy a big brush.
The smallest with a smooth back, slight.

Ing purposes. As matter Of fact, too
much Importance is attached to the valus
Of the tooth brush. The main thing is to
dislodge the small particles Of food from,

are indispensao.e-a thread and tooth.

thread easier to pass between the teeth
than twist and less liable to cut the
gums. Wood or straw toothpicks are
only used.

Pure Air Purific. the Blood,

There is nothing like pure air to purify
the blood. One day in the country, on
high ground. under a shady tree. is
worth all the cures in therapeutics. A
sail down salt river or tent on the
beach when the sun is up is another
excellent tonic. Bad air makes bad
blood or keeps 1t bad. Soiled air can
no more purify impure blood than dirty
water can cleanse soiled clothes. Fresh
water, good soap and clear air are
needed for nice laundry work, and they
are invaluable to the human system.
Get out of doors and let the lungs and
blood have clean air.
The evening world. [volume] (New York, N.Y.) 1887-1931, 1894-08-20

Air in a llvingroom is made impure
by breathing and by burning gas. One
gas-jet consumes as much air as eleven
persons. Those nervous people who are
in the habit of going to bed with the
gas lit as a protection against bur
glars should not neglect the windows,
for in three-quurters of an hour the gas
will spoil as much fresh air as would
do u man the whole night. An ordinary
individual uses gallon of pure air
every minute; one gas burner uses elev-
en- gallons a minute. No matter what
the weather may be, have the window
open while the lights are burning to let
the impure air out and pure air into the
room.

THE World" ably pictures the advan-
tages which people Of means have over

100000 families in this city who are I'M
