Two in a Bed.

Two in a bed is the usual custom of
sleeping, in the United States at least,
and also in Canada and England. says
Good Housekeeping. But in Germany
and France single beds are the rule.
The latter plan is more healthful and
comfortable 1t is gradually coming in
to use in this country. Single beds in

Many families declare that they never
knew what comfort was. during the
hot summer nights. until they adopted
the single beds. l might add word
of protest against allowing babies Oh
young children to sleep with old peo-

Confusion of Terma.

CacaO is one thing. cocoa is another
and coca is still another. Cocoa is the
ordinary cOcOanut. Cocoa Is not made
from the seed of the chocolate tree. but
chocolate is made from the seed Of the
cacao, the broma cacaO. 1t Is rather
curious fact that this word cacaO Is in
variably spelled incorrectly In nearly
all advertisements. Any good botanical
dictionary will show you the difference
between cocoa, the cOcoanut palm. ca
Gao, the broma cacao. and coca, the CO.
caine shrub. Yet these words are COM
monty confused and misspelled in
newspapers and other advertising me-
diums. and the members Of the medical
profession, il seems, are not exempt
frora the same mistakes. They are
separate things, with separate proper
ties and are put to separate uses.
