there was nothing we would not have

after various experiments of his, which
resulted in no benefit TO the child, we

full set of the CuticuFa Remedies and
applied as per directions, and he began
TO improve Immediately, and in ABOUT

HOW TO VENTILATE ROOMS TO
KEEP COOL. IN SUMMER
Regulating Rules of Culinary Department to Re-
duCe Heat to a Minimum

How 10 keep an apartment cool and
comfortable during the summer is a
problem every housewife who stays In
the city Will try 20 solve this season,
whether she lives in a five or a ten
room fiat For the woman whose home
is wired with electricity, the task viii
not be difficult; in fact, If she can af-
ford 10 cook with it, and have one or
more electric fans constantly in use the
house will be as cool as a seashore or
mountain resort. Where a gas or coal
range is used IN the kitchen the chances
OF keeping an apartment cool on hot
days are comparatively few, unless
artificial means can be resOrted TO.
Every woman realizes that to possess
good health as we'll as 10 get good venti-
latiOn, the windows must be kept open,
and the air allowed TO circulate freely
through all the rooms. To accomplish
this almost every housewife has her own
system. which she considers the best.
Though every intelligent woman knows
that TO get proper ventilation II is
necessary TO have windows down from
the top and up from the bottom, the
majority of them have both sashes
either at he bottom or top, so that the
circulation of air is not what it should
be, and consequently is often stagnant.
Then. too. instead Of having no curtains
or shades at the windows 10 keep out
the air many housewives will not sac
rihce the ornamentation Of their rooms
to comfort and SO keep muslin or dim
ity hangings on the easements.
Keeping out the sun and having
fresh air is also a difficult problem,
and few know how il can be done sue
cessfully, though according 70 an old
fashioned hOusekeeper il IS quite a
simple proposition.
After the room has had enough sun
shine To make IL smell fresh and clean"
she says, Il always close the windows
at top and bottom and pull down the
shades 10 keep out the hot rays, IL
possible. BY leaving open the door
leading into another room the cool air
circulating into the first one should
prevent its becoming unbearably close
and warm. II Il is necessary to keep
the other apartments comfortable. the
room into which the sun shines may
be closed and thus shut eff from the
rest of the fiat. The only difficulty
then would be TO get it cool after the
air has been confined in it for several
hours.
The Washington times., 1906-07-04
ELECTRIC Fans Inexpensive.

In houses wired with electricity cleo
tric fans help to keep the rooms COM
Portable. because they have the air
circulating so rapidly. And now that
they can be rented for from s. 10 81 a
month. and be run at the small expense
Of a cent and a quarter to two cents an
hour they are within the reach Of per
sons with small means.
Even with electric fans a woman can
not be sure that her apartment will be
cool unless she understands how to
properly place them. They should be
as near the windows as is possible. for
the fresh air must be famed by the
blades and hurried into every part Of
the room 10 make any appreciable DIFF
ference in the atmosphere and the re
suit felt. according TO the relative size
OF the apartment and the dimensions or
the fan. II Is obvious that in a small
room a large fan IS not needed, and
that a square room needs a different
kind of an artificial cooler from an OBJ
long one.
In a square room an osciIlating fan,
placed about tWO-thiTds the distance
from the fiOOr should be placed on
shelf near the window where the fresh
air viii como from behind II, and then
be hurried first to one side OF the room
and then TO the other If the ian IS
ntted with shutter that can be easily
made at nome from cardboard, the re-
suit IS even more effective. for none OF
the sIIeustu OF the current Is iUSt.
In an oblOng room a stationary fan
that shoots the air staight ahead is
most effective in keeping the atmOs-
phere stirred up I'm lively motion.
As to cooking with electricity. il IS
not only absolutely heatless. but is only
10 per cent more expensive than gas
or coal and really much more con-
venient. For an average size family
four small stoves would be necessary

The Milwaukee Free Press in its
issue, Friday June s, contained an
excellent editorial on the political
condition in this state. We republish
from said editorial the following
paragraphs which is self explanatory
and express our sentiment:
Two years ago, actively engaged IN
the contest for the restoration to the
people of their right TO govern them
selves" and the side of the people
were the three present Republican
candidates for the gOvernorship,
James O. Davidson, Irvine L. Len
root and j. j. McGillivray. Nobody
questioned the loyalty of either of
them. Neither Of them, by any word
or act, during the five years Of contest,
ever WaVered or acted in any but the
approved militant "half breed" fash
ion. They were all "our men," and
were all candidates for important
offices then; one for senator, one for
aSSemblyman. and one for lieutenant
governor,
With either of these men in the
office of governor during the next two
years we cannot believe that there
will be anyone with warrant to queS.
ton loyal administration of 1.-THE re-
form laws.
This is not to say that we regard
the three men equally fitted for the
office, but no reason for anxiety about
the goths and vandals of Stalwartdom
overrunning the state and Tobbing us
of the fruits of our accomplishments
if either of them should be elected
governor.
The past course of each of the three
is the warrant for saying so much as
this. And if this is right, then there
is danger of permitting too strong
feeling in the interest of either OF
these candidates to get possession OF
Republicans. There are other interests
at stake that may suffer through toe
fierce contest between our friends.
