m.k;no Th;nos Hum In Rome.

The Romans had three recognized
methods Of applauding-the bombus,
the imbrices and the testae. The word
bombus did not carry any allusion to
explosives On the contrary. this form
Of applause was the most decorous, In
asmuch as it consisted merely OF
humming or buzZing noise. Thus In
way the Romans were the first TO
make things hum" in public assem-
bly,. The bombus was not the CHIEF
feature the Romans had to offer In the
way OF applause. The imbrices meant
demonstration made with the hollow
Of the hands The testae meant the
striking together of the fat portions OF
the hands From his we may con.
clude that the Romans clapped. but

it is done at less cost. The reason
that more homes are not provided with
such conveniences is that the farmers
have grown used to doing without
them. They look forward to retiring
and moving to town, where they can
have all the modern conveniences
When they get there they will pay
dearly for them in the form of house
rent. To have them in the country
means a direct cash outlay, and too
often the farmer pleads that he cannot
afford it. little figuring would con-
vince him that he need not do without
a few of these colveniences that make
life SO much more pleasant for the
whole family.
The first consideration In most parts
of the country is the heating system
Farmers are getting out OF the habit
of using stoves. as they are hndlns

the saving of coal or wood, will pay

system of this kind all the coal and
dust incident to building and keeping
IN the fire are In. the cellar The whole
house can be heated for about what
it costs to heat two or three rooms
with stoves. There is no need OF crawl

morning. \ pull on the chain will
open the draft. and in half an houl
or so the house is warm. Fhe kitchen
also can be heated from the cellar. ant
an oil stove can be used for cooking
An oil stove takes up less room. saves
fuel and is much more comfortable t

A furnace has the advantage o
cheaDness. 1t also furnishes fresh al

an eight room house furnace can u

of being cleaner and keeping NOR
