DR.. John Atcherley Of the Royal

1t is analogous to scurvy.
He ascribes the disease to restricted

is lacking, with the injection of an un.
due amount of poisonous bacteria

A large Turkish bath towel makes
a nice bathrobe for baby or small
child. Use white cotton curtain cords
for the girdle and make the hood Of
Turkish face cloth. This little robe
is very serviceable and convenient
and is easily laundered.
Instead of paying children for do
ing work, let them understand that
they have little duties they must per-
form, but give them money at inter-
walls. Teach them the value of mon
ey and the principles of saving.
If you find that your baby who Is
just beginning to eat solid food will
not eat soft cooked eggs-and there
are many who do not like them-try
scrambling the eggs until they are
well done. If not found palatable in
that form, make an egg custard. A
baby usually enjoys this and receives
the same amount of nourishment that
he would If the egg was cooked in
any other way.

Rev. William A. Wasson was its new

Long Island would have marked

liquor problem may be seen from the
following interview:

A Woman's Idea of Summer Comfort

To every woman, especially the wo-
man who keeps house, the topic of
summer comfort in the home is one
of never-failing interest.
This is particularly true where
! comfort in the kitchen is concerned,
as it is in this one room that the
most trying part of the work is done,
such as cooking. baking ironing and
| heating water for wash-day purposes.
Even in cool weather such work is
mot altogether welcome, but it be
comes drudgery on days when the
mercury is trying to jump through
| the top of the thermometer, aided by
hot stove that diffuses its almost
unbearable heat through the kitchen.
But such days are past With the
New Perfection Wick Blue Flame Oil
Cook Stove. kitchen drudgery be-
comes kitchen comfort. for this won
derful stove is so constructed that it
not only produces quick results, but
does it all without perceptibly raising
the kitchen temperature.
All this means real comfort TO the
woman who works in the kitchen, es-
pecialIy when considered with the
added advantages in the saving of
time; in the doing away with all
carrying of coal, wood and ashes; in
having a stove that can be turned on
or off, high or low, as required and
in not having to keep it lighted when
not in use.
Then there is the saving of fuel to
be considered; and it is here also
| that the New Perfection eXcels. AL
though equipped with three burners
| it has but one oil reservoir, thus re-
ducing three separate filling opera
| tions to one.
Besides all this the New Perfec-
ton" is the only oil stove built with
cabinet top. It's commodious top
shelf is particularly useful for warm
| ing plates and keeping food hot af-
ter 1t is cooked. In addition there
are two drop shelves on which may
be set the teapot or coffee pot and
small cooking utensils. Also has
two racks for holding towels.
Altogether the New Perfection"
is stove of wonderful utility. It's
extremely handsome appearance sets
off any kitchen to full advantage 1t
is superior to the hot coal range no
matter what the point of comparison
may be-or whether regarded as a
summer stove only or as a stove for
year round use.
Another household article of un.
usual convenience is the Rayo Lamp
scientifically constructed lamp that
will adorn any room-whether library
parlor, dining-room or bedroom. The
Rayo Lamp gives a mellow steady
light that does not tire the eyes. Its
Fcenter draft burner of the latest de
sign and its fine porcelain shade
make it a lamp OF combined useful
ness and beauty.
The New Perfection Wick Blue
Flame Oil Cook Stove and. the RayC
Lamp constitute two household arti
cles that will meet any woman's
idea of home comfort. In the thou
sands of homes In which they arC
already used they are making things
cheerful because of their absolute
safety, great simplicity, and wonder
full convenience.

ALL MAY HAVE GARDENS;

| dening.
An effort will be made to have ev-
cry person who owns vacant and I'M
used lots within the city limits offer
them to the poor to be planted and
cultivated
"It would be asking very little of
property holders" said President
Dougherty. 81 believe that nearly ev-
cry one would be glad to respond.
Many poor families would be able dur
ing the summer to raise enough veg
etables to tide them over the winter,
and in cultivating the land they would
greatly enhance the beauty of the city
generally. A we'll planned garden is
much more attractive than a patch of
weeds, and if few flowers are plant
ed they will greatly beautify the gar
| dens."
Five years ago an effort was made
along similar lines but on smaller
scale, to provide lots for cultivation
by the poor. A number of families
were accommodated. They raised
good crops and the results were gen.
orally satisfactory, but for some rea-
son the practice was not continued.
In Akron, a wealthy property hold
er has donated the use of 300 lots for
the same purpose as proposed in Can
ton. and the lots there are being eag-
erly sought.
1t is said by those familiar with
| the subject that person who pro-
vides an ordinary lot upon which a
miscellaneous crop Of vegetables can
be raised gives the equivalent of S25
to charity, while the same person
might hesitate to donate SIS in actual
cash.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1909-04-29

A movement which embodies not
only the spirit of civic beauty but
also that of charity is to be launched
by the Board of Trade,
On condition that the land will be
cultivated and to a certain degree
beautified, G. A. Dougherty, presi-
dent of the board, announces that tho
BuaTd of Trade will donate the use
of The nineteen lots it owns in various
parts of the city this summer to fam
lies desiring gardens to supply their
own wants or for market.
To this Mr.. Dougherty said he will
add forty other lots which he owns
personally. Each family will be al
lowed the use of one lot.
The proposition is endorsed by Can
ton Sorosis and will be supported by
the Canton Parks and Fairgrounds As
sociation.
President Fred Witter of the Parks
and Fairgrounds association express
ed himself very favorably towards
the plan and said that he will confer
with Mr.. Dougherty Tuesday for the
purpose of arranging details as to the
part to be taken by the association.
Miss Blanche Vignos, prominent
club woman and member of the
state board of visitors to charitable
and corrective institutions, declared
that she would do all in her power
to aid the movement. On account OF
the summer disbanding of the Sorosis,
it will be impossible for that organ
ization to give any concerted assist
ance to the project. but Miss Vignos
believes that each member will be
ready to give individual assistance.
The Young Mems Christian Associ-
alton also favors the movement. Ed.
Meyers, director of the boys depart
ment OF that institution, is seeking
lots to be cultivated by an agricul-
tural class he has organized. Mr.
Meyers also conducts classes in the
Madison street district and he says
he knows of at least ten families IN
that vicinity who will jump at the
opportunity to secure lots for gar

We will make no challenges of To-

conditions. We shall not indulge in
"pipe-dreams," or vague theories but
in facts that cannot be successfully
controverted by our friends, the enc

order that they may gather from it
the unanswerable reasons why the
