Who knows how to be an agreeable

Who does not dress up her children

Rooms with low ceilings, or with
ceilings even with the window tops
are susceptible of more perfect ven
tilation than those with high ceilings
In such rooms the leakage at the win
dows, which is constantly going on
keeps the air in motion throughout the
room, whereas if the ceiling is higher
only the lower part Of the air is moved
and an inverted lake of foul and heavy
air is left floating in the space above
the window tops This lake, under
the lay of diffusion or gases, keeps
actively at work, fouling the flesh cur
rents circulating beneath it.

At Bayonne Henry Deutsch, of aero
nautic fame, presided at a bull fight
here, his condition in accepting that
responsible position being that an
automobile should be tried in place of
horses. The result shows that, in
spite of the faith the Spanish have
that a bull will face anything, the
"toro" would not undertake to tackle
the automobile.

French Idea of Economy.

If French agriculture is not prosper
Gus, it will not be for want of parlia-
mentary assistance. The wine growers,
who are never satisfied, have had al
most a record vintage this year and
complain that they are unable to sell
their production at a remunerative
price. A remedy proposed was to give
all the troops a daily ration of wine.
Soldiers get wine only on exceptional
occasions, and it was suggested when
the army estimates were under discus
sion that if all the troops under arms
had wine to drink daily the stocks
would be reduced. The minister Of war
objected that his credits would have to
be increased. as the cost would amount
to ten or twelve millions a year. The
deputies were not deferred by that
consideration and voted the addition
of wine to the ratiOns and as a COM
mencement increased the credits by
half q million. -London Economist.

The water situation in this city is
far more serious than a majority Of
the voters believe. 1t is not merely a
question Of whether the people resid.
ing here will be forced to deny them
selves any so called necessities of life;
it is not a matter which involves only
the increased patronage of the spring
water systems or the shutting down
of the large manufacturing plants,
throwing perhaps a thousand men out
Of employment and i%nflicting loss
upon the manufacturers. But it goes
still further and becomes a menace to
the safety of the very city itself. In

fected. The matter has already been
taken up by the Standard, a%ninsurance
publication. and in a recent issue
it says:-,'Barre, VT, is in a sad
plight. Its sole source of water sup
ply consists of one brook. Lawyers
for a firm of manufacturers which
takes it's power therefrom, have noti-
fed the city not to take any more
water from the stream and threaten
an injunction. The city is on short
rations and the situation in event Of
fire would be alarming indeed" This
is unfortunately true in part, although
there is always enough water kept In

an emergency forty.eight hours in ad-
vance. What is to be done is a ques-
tion that needs considerably more
than a passing thought. The city of
Barre has paid out over 100000 for
waterworks and today it is no bet
