On Keeping Sponges Sanitary

On account Of the difficulty Of keep
ing sponges in sanitary condition,
many people have discarded them en-
tirely. However, it is easy to keep them
clean and sweet if in addition to rinsing
in clean, warm water after being used,
they are boiled once a week in water
to which has been added a teaspoonful
of Gold Dust washing powder and then
rinsed through several clear, warm
waters. Wash cloths should also be
boiled in Gold Dust suds and thoroughly
rinsed, summed and ironed. Those of
thin linen crash are more desirable than
heavy ones.

Beware of Gas Roasted Coffee

Other coffees are roasted for ten fifteen min
utes in perforated cylinders over gas. The hot
gas flames come in contact with the coffee and
roasts the outside Inside it is raw
That explains why most coffee is weak and
colorless Why so many colfees have flat,
wredv flavor-an almost imperceptible aroma.
Moreover such coffee smells of gas; tastes of
gas For roasting opens the pores in coffee Thus,
the noxous gases enter the coffee and spoil it.
No wonder coffee disagrees with SO many people.
You'll never again drink other coffees after you
realize the wonderful healthfulness OF Fifth
Avenue" Coffee.

Many Baby Ailments
Are Prevented Easily

There is one very common defornity
among children that IN the great ma
Jority Of cases could quite easily be
prevented by care and common sense
during the first two or three years OF
childhood. This is the deformity OF
bowed legs
Many children become bow-legged be-
cause they are not given sufficient milk.
and because they are allowed to be too
much on their legs when their bodies
are heavy and their bones not properly
hardened.
One often hears people suggest that
such poor little creatures should be
led along by the hand, as walking win
strengthen the legsl
This is an absolute absurdity child
whose legs are becoming bent should
at once be shown to doctor. who will
probably say that he should be allowed
to walk as little as possible.
Walking often makes matters worse
rather than better
The softening of the leg bones which
leads 10 bowed legs is often-if not al
ways-due to a disease called ricketts,.
When a child is suffering from ricketts,
the bones do not harden properly, and
so easily become bent. and the sooner
medical advice Is obtained the better,

manent bodily defornity is certainly
