HYGIENE OF THE BED.
A Matter OF Great Importance 90
Every Member Of the
Household.

A large proportion Of our indoor life
IS spent in bed, and during these hours
the system is making an effort to re-
cuperate and renoyate the system.
Our sleeping moments are supposed
to provide the needed rest, but much
Of the system is actively employed in
poisonous secretions, and excretions
are either being accumulated or de-
posted upon the bed clothing or IN
the atmosphere about the sleeping
room. The hygiene Of the bed is OBJ
yiously a matter Of great Importance,

Housekeeping. Generally speaking

An ideal bedroom has at least two

is the essence OF hyg1enic law concern
ing our places Of repose. The refresh
ing sensation of the clean, well-aired
bed is indeed a luxury. To accomplish
this, the bed clothing must be entire
ly removed from the bed and exposed
to the air, and if possible to thes'in.
The most thorough way to dp this is
to take bed clothing, pillows, and,
when convenient, the mattresses out
Of doors, where hanging upon stout
lines in a sunny, breezy location, the
foul odors Of the night can be blown
away Not sooner than an hour after
rising should the bed be made up,
longer interval being much more de-
sirable. The sleeping room should not
be used any more than is absolutely
necessary by day. and an open window
should be brought into requisition
whenever possible during the time it
is unoccupied; and always at night.
The pure air is as much required by
night as by day, to say the least.
In our American hotels and board
ing houses, while the guests are at
breakfast, the beds they have just left
are being made up. At night when
sleep is sought under heavy bed clothes
and counterpane the chances for a
headache the next morning are exceed
ingly good. Thatfeeling Of being more
tired than when one went to bed is

RUN WAGONS BY TROLLEY.
Moved Method OF transportation Ia
DispIncing the Horse in
Germany.

With the Lombard-Gerin system our
readers, says the Scientific American.
are not unfamiliar. The system util-
ICES two overhead wires-one positive
and one negative Instead of driving
the vehicles entirely by motors con-
nected with the axle, an auxiliary de-
vice called an 'automotor trolley" is
used which runs along the overhead
wires. In other words, the vehicles
are towed along by a self-propelled
motor trolley. The towing trolley is
driven by a three-phase induction mo-
tor suspended between two conduct
ing trolley wires. The motor is car
ried in a frame which also has bear
ings for the two trolley wheels. Mo-
tion is communicated to the trolley
wheels by the revolving field Of the
motor.
The current is fed to the trolley
motor from the omnibus motor,
which latter may be regarded as a
combined rotary transformer and di-
rect-current motor. The trolley mo-
tor travels with a speed somewhat
in excess Of that of the car itself.
From this peculiar arrangement Of
causing it to lead the way, as it were,
the Frenchmen have termed the auto
trolley "the blind mans dog"
The Lombard-Geri system has
been tried on a line extending from
the village of Samois to Fontaine-
bleau. a distance of about five lxilo-
meters. On this line the car or om-
nibus is driven by a double motor
operating at a tension of 500 volts
direct current. The time taken for
the journey is about 20 minutes. The'
total energy used is 54S kilowatt
hours, or e0-foot kilowatt hours per
car lilometer.
It is stated that the low expense
Of equipment for a line Of this char
acter renders it Of particular value
for country districts, where an ex-
pensive track construction would be
prohibitive on account Of the small
amount Of traffic.
