FEBER4L REGULATION OF AUTO
MOBILES.

Point is given TO the renewed sugges-
ton Of federal regulation Of automobile
2 traffic 10y the report that more than one
hundred thousand such vehicles have
been registered in the State of New
York That is doubtless much larger
number than any other state can boast,
but other states have large numbers
and the total in the United States may
easily be more than a million. These
figures suggest the enormous proper
fions Of the automobile industry and Of
automobile traffic on public highways,
and also. Of course. the need of some
advanced and enlightened system Of
regulating operation.
Federal control could presumably be
applied only to those cars which were
Used in interstate traffic. That may
mean only 4 minority of the whole

THE TALK OF THE DAY.

The mother of Karl Luft, the aeronaut
who was fatally injured by the collapse of
his balloon at ReichenSachsen, has pub
lshed letter dated at Bitterfeld, thanking
the people who condoIed with her because
OF her bereavement. Knowing that the
last year of my sons life she says, was
his happiest, and that sailing in the air
was his greatest enjoyment gives me
strength in my affection. He used to leave
his home enthusiastically and return as
one in triumph when another flight had
been accomplished, and he thanked his
mother for humoring him in his passion,
and not giving way to fear. The conscious
ness that this early death closed a fully
rounded life and that it was my privilege
TO make IT happy and enjoyable in his own
way serves now 10 bear me up"

ELECTRICITY on 4 FARM.

An electric installation which q pro-
gressive farmer in Illinois made about j
year ago Is described in 1.-The Electrical
World this week. The man Is utilizing
q small stream which flows through his
property BY means of water wheel
having capacity Of II or 10 horse
power, lie works a dynamo producing
current enough TO light his house ana
run a variety of farm machinery lie
saws wood, operates Il cream separator
and shells corn with electric motors. He
also has electric cooking vessels anu
electric fiatirons. On hot days, perhaps,
he has electric fans running for the
comfort of his family
Many persons living in the country
have considered the possibility or pro-
yiding themselves with similar faclll-
ties. Hitherto the favOrite method OF
securing electricity has been to generate
il by means of windmill Owing to
the unequal force with which the wind
blows and to the fact that sometimes
there is none at ALL this source of power
Is highly unsatisfactory. \ storage bat
terry must be secured to supplement the
rest of the outfit. and the cost Of such
plant Is practically prohibltory. As
the Illinois farmers stream gives him
all the power he needs no system of
storage has been necessary. When he
wants current he turns on the water.
and for twelve months the supply has
been unfailing. Here is an example
worthy Of imlta ton by MEN who have Il
little water power of their own. Some
day it can hardly be doubted that trolley
companies will find it worth while 20
furnish current TO rural residents hav-
ing homes near their tracks In the
mean time any man having a stream
running through his land can provide
for himself without heavy investment.

1t is clearly every woman's duty

much as possible In order that she
may enjoy the open air pleasures.
and SO store up strength and

One-piece house dresses of white
polka-dotted calico or lawn are
nice, because they are cool, easily
laundered, do not fade and are al
ways becoming.
We wear dingy old Bingham
aprons Just because we have them.
Why don't We make our aprons of
the cheapest grade of bleached
muslin instead? They are fade
less, always look neat even when a
little soiled, and can be washed,
dried and ironed in a half hour If
necessary.
To keep the house cool and
clean in the easiest way, we should
have bare floors. hall rugs which
are easily shaken. and simple mus
lin draperies. Many are using dou-
BILE sash curtains at windows for
summer. and the effect Is quite
pretty. The lower curtains are fast
ened to the sash and so raise with
the window, leaving the entire
space for air to enter.
Heavyweight sheetings with
wide hens all around make dainty
bedspreads. They are light and
