Household Sanitation.


In no way are We more our broth
er's keeper" than in the manner we
treat and dispose of wastes. We are
each at the mercy of thousands of our
fellow beings. AS long as We are in
the world, especially of course, in
cities are We all subject to germ Ia
den dust. Each should do his share
of disposing of dust and wastes, to
save himself and his neighbor.
1t was not so long ago that yellow
fever was rampant in the south. but
science discovered the kind of mos
quito that carried the disease. and
now. with the draining of marshes,
covering pools with kerosene and
screening houses. one may live in
comfort and health in these same dis
tricts.
The effort to exterminate the breed
ing places of flies will raise the health
rate in a marked degree. for there IS
no carrier of disease more to be
dreaded than the common housefly.
All waste from the kitchen should
be burned as soon as possible as gar
bage has a great attraction for flies.
In cities where there is a garbage dis
posal the problem is partly solved.
The garbage pail should be of galvan-
lied iron, with tight cover. When
emptied it should be washed, scalded
and summed.
Fresh air is another vital necessity
of health. A house as free as pos
sible from dust, good wholesome food
and one has fair chance for a use
full life, II exercise Is rightly taken.

PROVED HIS REMARK CORRECT

DR. John BaScom was Stickler for
pure English. On one occasion as a
student was leaving the doctors house
he called back: Its raining cats and
dogs"
The rainfall is excessive" immedi-
ately corrected the doctor
DR.. Bascom then ventured down the
steps to determine the force of the ele-
ments and was thoroughly drenched
by the driving rain. Hurrying back
upon the porch, he exclaimed: I'm
deed. it is raining pitchforks!"
The student glanced at the doctor
questioningly. who was visibly en-
reference to the storm. In confusion
he dismissed his visitor after giving
him the use of an umbrella.
On the way home the student ran
into a projection of an awning. which
pierced a hole into the umbrella.
The next day both men were plan
ming explanations and apologies. the
doctor for using "pitchforks" and the
student for running an umbrella.
DR.. Bascom lost no time In reliev
ing his mind. but was interrupted b.
the grateful student, who saw the wa,
to explanation made very clear. wher
he said:
Doctor, the term you applied t.
last nights rain was correct. Thu
your umbrella was struck by one
the descending pitchforks."

The Favorite Shell Fish.

The worlds mine oyster.
Which l with sword will open.
Oysters are one of the few animal
foods which contain a large amount
of carbohydrates. These are present
in the liver in the form of glycogen.
The oyster is especially easy of diges-
ton, if eaten uncooked, or not over
cooked, as they require little cooking.
In preparing stew. cook the oysters
in their own liquor and remove them
as soon as they are plump. and the
gills are curled. More cooking makes
them tough. The one great objection
to the use of the raw oyster IS that
during the fattening of the shell fish
which Is done in shallow water. it
may become contaminated with ty-
phoid germs. derived from sewage.
Some noted epidemics have been
traced to this source. Greater care
is being taken to prevent cOntamina-
ton and our pure food laws are full
filling a great promise.
Because an oyster has greenish
hue do not condemn it. for they often
have that color from feeding on the
green sea plants. II has been demon
strated that a five per cent solution
of tartaric acid will destroy typhoid
hacilli in a short time This is fruit
acid found in grapes. commonly
known as cream of tartar. and harm,
less. Immerse the suspected oyster
vegetable or fruit. in the solution
made by adding one tablespoonful OF
the acid to pint of water. After half
an hour, rinse thoroughly in fresh wa
ter, and all danger of infection is re-
moved. Although oysters are easily
digested. they are not especially nOur-
ishing and when so cents quart may
be regarded as luxury. used for the
purpose of providing variety. and not
as a valuable source of food.
In preparing Tor eating, carefully
handle each with the fingers to re-
move all bits of shell.
When preparing stew. drop the
oysters into boiling water to cover.
and remove as soon as plump, and the
edges are curled. Add 4 quarter OF a
cup Of butter, one quart OF milk. sea
son with pepper and salt.
