CABINET ovENS-No woman who has
ever used cabinet type gas range will
ever willingly return to the baekbTeakihg,-

These ovens are just the right height TO
avoid all STOPPING different heights to
choose from)
Broiler and bake oven are heated by
the same burners. thus making ii pos
sible to bake and broil at the same time
with the same gas
Cabinet ovens mean less back-ache and
lower gas bills.
SMALL FLOOR SPkCE-Thege stoves take
up a space only 20 in, to 2s in. deep by
AZ in. to as In. wide (outside dimensions).
Measure this out on your kitchen floor
and you will be surprised TO see how little
space is required for the most complete
cabinet gas range.
Note, also, that all cabinet ranges have
high sanitary legs, which makes II easy
TO sweep under the stove.

GLASS DOORS-How many times have you
wished you could see through the oven
doc. There Is a keen delight in being
able to watch things bake and brown
through glass oven door You can get
better results, too, and save gas by not
having to chill the food and the oven by
opening the door.
Cabinet ranges may be had with or
without the glass door The difference in
price is from $3.50 TO $500.
GAS coNsUMPTIoN-Each one OF these
stoves is scientifically constructed to get
all the heat possible out of the gas con
sumed, and you can be confident that
there are no more economical stoves
made.
In general il may be said that the top
burners consume about 9-10c worth 0f
gas per hour; the giant top burner 1c, and
the oven burners &c each per hour.
This gives a very fair idea of how
cheap It is TO cook with gas.

WARMING CLOSETS-The warming closet
adds great convenience without adding

The same heat that you use 10 brot1 or

CANOPY SHELF-This feature not only
furnishes handy shelf, just where you

CARE FOR SICK ON TRAINS.
German Roads Have Special Cars Fo

German Roads Have Special Cars For
 Transporting Invalids.
 Excellent facilities are afforded in Germany for transporting invalids and cripples who are unable to walk, ac- cOrding to our consul at Brunswick. The German railroad system provides a first class car for invalids who can afford to use 1t. This car is fitted with every possible convenience for the sick. A special apartment, opening on the level of the station platform, with a double door. so that a stretcher can be carried in without the slightest diff culty, is set apart for the invalid and attendants. The balance of the car contains kitchen, where meals can be prepared, and a section handsomely upholstered for members of the family or accompanying friends. For invalids who travel second or third class all apartment on an ordinary car tE mged. opening in like manner with double door on the station platform.
 The charges for transporting sick and helpless persons have hitherto been moderate For invalids travelling third class the charge has been the cost of four tit kets. free transport being grant ed for two attendants. This rate is still granted when the car containing the invalid apartment belongs to regular train with d fixed destination; other wise in the future six tickets second class must be purchased. In addition to the cost of these tickets there will be an additional charge of ' pfennigs 0% centsD per axle and kilOmeter O.62 mile) for the time the car runs empty before and after the transport of the invalid to the point of destination.
 For example, if the invalid is trans ported from Berlin to Hamburg, 29O kilometers Q8O miles), when the car containing the invalid apartment forms part of the regular train the charge will be 35.6 marks ($8.4O; if the same car is specially ordered the chage will be 164.64 marks ($39. .19.-United States Consular Reports.

THE ROLE DUST PLAYS.

It Gives Us Clouds, Rain, Snow, Sunset
 Effects and Blue Skies. .s:
 While much evil has been attributed to dust, very little attention has been given to its benefits. Without dust there would be no blue sky nor any diffused light. Mans only light of day would be that directly radiated by the sun. r
 Light is produced by the vibrations of ether in the form of waves of vari- able extent, and these short or long waves are differently reflected, accord ing to the dimensions of the grains of dust that they meet as they descend to earth. The fine dust reflects only the shortest waves, the blue. Dust of medium thickness reflects the yellow and the green waves, while the coars- est dust reflects nothing but the red.
 We owe the blue of the sky to the fine dust in the atmospheric heights, where the air is purest. When'~ the wind sets the dust in motion the blue turns to gray The smoke of cigar is blue as it issues from the cigar, while the smoke issuing from the mouth of the smoker is whitish gray because the particles of the gray smoke have increased in volume by fixing water vapor. The blue smoke of a burning cigar is like the blue sky, and as the water vapor is fixed by the smoke close to the mouth of the smoker so the vapor risen from the seas is condensed on the particles of atmospheric dust.
 Without dust earth could have no rain. Not a drop of all the water evaporated from the oceans could come to earth on anything but the bearer of it's condensations, the dust: Were it not for atmospheric dust there would be no clouds, no fog, no rain, no snow, no splendid sunsets, no azure skies. The surface of the ground, the trees, the houses, men and animals would be the objects on which water vapor would condense. The clothing of man and the fur of the animal would drip with water. - Harper's Weekly.
