The writer remembers well a typi-
cal case. A child of three years. after
eating a number of windfallen apples
and drinking two cups of milk, was
suddenly seized with commissions, oc-
curing every half hour or less, and
remained unconscious for hours.
Some effort had been made to empty
the stomach by vomiting, but in vain.
An emetlc and tickling the throat with
feather brought up a mass of Jumps

This soon restored the little one to
consciousness. A thorough enema and
dose OF castor oil freed the alimen
tary canal Of the undigested food and
poisons produced by it; but several
days of fever followed, during which
no food could be retained by the stom-
ach, and even water was rejected for
a time.
The best treatment in case of acute
Indigestion Is to empty the alimentary
tract at once by an emetic of warm
water or the stomach lavage; thor

Hygiene of Churches.

1
1.-THE poet tells us that the groves
were Gods first temples. From a
health standpoint they were far supe-
rior to our magnificent modern edi-
| fees, where the worshipers come in
contact with countless germs lurking
in the upholstered seats, and in the
| dust-laden carpets, and their minds
are stupefed by being compelled to
inhale the poisons that are constantly
exhaled from the lungs of others, be
they sick or WELL
Clergymen should feel pride in hav-
ing their churches hygienically con-
structed and we'll ventilated. Fixed
carpets should not re used in places
of worship where so many people con-
gregate. The example of the great
Roman divine, the bishop of Fano. in
Italy, is a good one to FOLLOW in this
respect. A circular was recently is
sued by him in which he asks the
priests of his diocese to comply with
the following rules:
Il In every church the floor must
be regularly cleaned with sawdust,
saturated with a strong sublimate
solution. This thorough cleaning
should take place particularly after
holidays when great masses of peo-
pie have visited the church.
80. Every week all ordinary chairs
and confessional chairs, should be
thoroughly cleaned with moist rags.
3. The CRATE of the confessional
chairs must be washed every week

8 How to Acquire and Retain the Priceless Posses

To Balk the MerciIess 'skeeter

With the ferocious mosquito now
out hungrily seeking his prey. Il
would be well for those leading an
outdoor life to know that a good way
to keep these and similar pests at a
distance IS to apply to the hands and
face the following lotion, recommend
ed by the Journal of the Outdoor Life
| Spirits OF camphor ...............12 DR..
| OIL OF lavender ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS dr..
| OIL Of pennyroyal ............... 2 DIR.
Here's another hint from the same
journal. Scientists who have gone
boldly into the favored haunts of the
mosquito to study his ways, have
discovered that the insects are par
tial TO some colors and averse to
Others They particularly dislike yell
low Their favorite is dark blue, with
dark red next, then brown, then scar
let, then black, then blue gray, then
olive green, then violet, then pearl
gray. then white.
II should be borne in mind that the
mosquito is the chief source of malar-
ial infection. Certain species of mos
quito constantly carry with them in
their bodies the malarial parasites,
and in inficting their bite they inject
some of these parasites into the
blood.
Dr. Schoo has observed that when
mosquitoes have access to acid fruits
their bite becomes less poisonous, or
quite harmless. And Professor Cell
has observed that in portions of Italy
where tomatoes are largely cultivated,
the people are practically free from
malarial infection, although the region
is naturally very malarious. 1t would
seem, then. that the wide cultivation
of acid fruits, such as tomatoes,
STRAWBERRIES, and other succulent
varieties, may be made an important
factor in Kidding the world of this
very troublesome pest.

every town in the country-with a no.
tice about it in the local paper: "Mr.
Ryder's house was painted ten years
ago with Devoe lead. and-zinc, and
has never been repainted. The color
| is not so bright as it was; but the
paint is as perfect coat as ever to
keep out water"
A good lead-and-oil job is expected
to last three years; it is good one
that lasts three years; it generally
does not. DeyOe lead-andzinc lasts
twice as long, if not
''If you have any fault to find with
this paint, either now in putting it on,
