SANITARY WAY OF swEEPlfG
Various Methods Of Keeping Down the
Dust When the Vacuum Cleaner
Is Unavailable.

Recently there has been developed
a great improvement In housekeeping
appliances--the vacuum cleaner. 1t is
not yet perfect. but 1t contains great
promise, This innovation practically
eats the dirt" sucking It into its
great tube Of throat. and depositing
It In an air-tight receptacle, which
may be emptied and cleaned out of
doors II the cleaner is mechanically
we'll constructed and susceptible of
easy manipulation. 1t is valuable
household invention
Whenever these more effective
methods of removing dirt are, for any
reason. temporarily impossible, al
ways remember that moisture makes
dust not only less harmful. but more
manageable. The old-fashioned Gus
tom of sprinkling wet tea leaves over
the carpet before sweeping was not
done for hygienic reasons, but to
brighten the colors. 1t was, however.
unintentionally sanitary. Newspapers
torn or cut into bits, and thoroughly
Wet answer the same purpose and
are more easily obtained In the guam
tity desired In cases of illness exist
ing in the room to be cleaned, an ex-
cellent practice is to saturate these
bits of paper with solution OF Platt's
ehlorides. Electrozone, or 20 per
cent carbolic solution. Dusting may
be accomplished in sanitary man
ner by using an oily cloth. or, for
some purposes, one moistened with
water is better
Oil is becoming more and more one
of the weapons of the sanitarian. BY
its use the roads in some towns are
kept almost free from the dust nui-
sance. and stagnant and mosquito
breeding pools are prevented from
communicating the atmosphere. Wom

Native Carpenters and Stone Masons
Help Build Church at
Bontoc.

Bontoc in particular and the Igorot
country in general win soon have its
first permanent Christian church. for
the building planned by the Belgian
missionary fathers is nearing compile
ton, according to advices brought by
Father Seprlchre, a member Of the
mission.
The new church is a substantial
stone structure and will cost 10000
pesos. It IS notable for the fact that
lgorot mechanics have participated in
the work Of construction as carpen-
ters, masons, plumbers.
-Four years ago Rev. Father Jur-
gems began the building since when
with the assistance of Father Sep
ulchre. four Belgian sisters and one
brother as a teaching staff-a re-
markable record has been made
among the Igorots, who are described
by the fathers as very industrious
and docile.
Some ESQ Igorot boys and girls have
been instructed in the ordinary school
grades and additional instruction has
been given in industrial work. Thus
there are in Bontoc some seventy ar
tlsans, practical shoemakers, horse
shoers and the like who owe their
training to the fathers.
The girls are instructed by the sis
ters In domestic sciences, cooking.
dressmahng, lacemaking, weaving
and the school today numbers thirty
erght of these students. The latest
addition to the curriculum is agricul-
lure, and this has had very marked

TO PROTECT WORKS OF ART
Italy Proposes to Insist on Govern.
inent Certificate Of SaIe for
Art Treasures.

1t is very likely that some legisla
tive measures will be adopted by Italy
IN the near future to protect works
OF art and prevent their being stolen
from museums and picture galleries
as the "Mons Lisa was. The min.
lster OF public instruction has been
fayorably impressed by the proposal
OF Commentator Agnet, who suggests
a special law giving a sort of title OF
ownership to every work of art and
declaring null and void all purchases
and sales unless certain formalities
are followed The law suggested will
De more or less as follows:
Article THE competent authorities
will grant free of charge to the own.
ers of art objects, such as statues,
paintings ancient objects, etc. a sDe-
cial certificate briefly describing the
object. and in the case Of paintings
giving the name Of the author or the
school.
Article 2-Such objects can only be
sold and their ownership validly trans.
ferred if regular Endorsement is
made on the certificate and the sigma
ture OF the owner is authenticated by
a notary.
Article 3-The sale of art objects
by mere delivery is null and void.
Article 4-The sale and purchase eff
iected without a regular Endorsement
on the certificate is punishable by a
hne and Imprisonment and bona fide
possession will not be admitted as an
extenuating circumstance.
Article 5--No certificates win be
granted for art objects owned by the
state, municipalities, churches or re-
ligious and charitable institutions.
