Outdoor Rooms.


In a note to The Clinic Edward T.
Stevens, who through his extended ex-
perience in designing and building hos
pitfalls has had brought most forcibly be-
fore him the relations of fresh air to
the fighting of disease, has this to say
of the benefits that the well may derive
from such life. He states that the out
of-door treatment which is so largely
recommended today for the care of
patients, either surgical or medical, and
absolutely required for the arrest of
the progress of the tubercular bacilli,
should be turned to account to prevent
disease in those who are perfectly well.
This health giving quality oil outdoor
life is recognized by some foremost archl-
tects in designing even the humblest
dwelling, and the garden room" is be-
coming popular in some localities as the
"den" or the reception room" were con-
sidered necessary In others. what can
be more conducive to good digestion IN
these hot days than meal eaten III
garden room, where three sides are open
or are sheltered only by the screens
necessary to prevent insects from dis
turbing the otherwise perfect peace! Inc
same screened garden room affords
splendid sleeping apartment where the
hot nights of summer may be passed m
refreshing sleep. Such a room can be
arranged in planning a new house, To-
Gated, for example, so as to lead directly
from the winter dining room or butter S
pantry so that service from the Kitchen
can be effected with the same ease as III
the dining room proper. Where space
will permit, this room should be large,
say fifteen by twenty-five feet, affording
space for hammocks, couches and dining
table and chairs. Window boxes run
ming around the outside add much to the
beauty of such a place, while potted
ferns and palms may be so disposed as TO
make this outdoor room the true living
room in the summer. If the outdoor
treatment is beneficial in bringing back
to health those who have been confined
to beds of sickness, how much greater
must be its power to the well, and why
not strengthen our resistance to disease
by adopting as much of the fresh air as
possible in our everyday living. A sleep

ABANDON THE NATIONAL
SOLDIERS HOMES SOON
Death Rate of Veterans and Prefer
ence for State Homes Lessons
Number of Inmates.

st. Paul, July 12.-That the time
is close at hand when the national
soldiers homes will be abandoned,
is the assertion of Captain w. H.
Harries, secretary of the Minnesota
state soldiers home. He gives as his
reason the increasing death rate of
the union and confederate veterans.
Just now" Captain Harries said,
there are about IL national homes
scattered over the country. 1t hard
ly pays to keep them up. In a few
years 1 look to see the number cut
down to about four, one in the east,
one in the west, one in the south
and one somewhere in the central
states"
There are "a more men in the
Minnesota state home than there were
a year ago and SO more than there
were two years ago. There care 10
more women than there were year
ago. Captain Harries declares the
soldiers are deserving the national
homes for the state homes wherever
possible, because better care of them
is taken in state institutions.

Growing Corn For Cob Pipes.

Probably not one smoker IN n hun
bred who likes the real American
pipe'-the corncOb-is aware OF the
fact that many acres in Ohio, Illinois,
Missouri and Nebraska are devoted to
raising corn for the especial purpose
of producing cobs suitable for fashion
ing into pipe bowls. The grain itself
is marketed. OF course. but the cob on
which it grows is the real harvest and
is cut carefully into proper lengths
smoothed aud polished. the soft inner
pulp being EOuged out by specially
constructed machinery. The corucob
pipe goes TO every country in the world
where men smoke and is especially in
favor in Australia and New Zealand.
where it is regarded as characteristic
ally American. because it suggests the
idea of Yankee ingenuity. The brier
is the favorite with Englishmen. who
are probably the greatest pipe smokers
