Prevent Winter
  Time Sickness

TT is easy to do. Colds, A sore throats and many slight ailments which ire quently lead to Pneumo- mia and other serious sickness can be prevent ed easily. How ? Air. That's all. Air-and com mon sense, of course. Common sense and a lit tie knowledge of the dan ger in artiflcially heated. room s particularly steam-hcated rooms. You can get the knowl- edge from an article be- ginning n page 28 of Pearson's Magazine for January. And you'd bet ter get it. That article shows the simple way in which the danger can be offset-as simple a thing as a piece of string will help a lot. If you will read that article and heed 1t, you may save many dollars in doctors bills. What may be done about the ever-increaSing cost of living IS explained in another article. Sen- ator Albert B. Cu1nminS, in an- other article, explains which he thinks is better for business competition, or combination reg ulated by the government. The story of how the Vanderbilt fam lily got into the Four Hundred is also in this magazine.

New York.-Visitors to Central
park within the last few days, and
those who walk along the Fifth ave-
nue. side Of the park, have been ap-
palled at the destruction done to the
fine elm trees by thousands of cater
pillars, remarks a writer in the New
York Tribune. They are the tussock
moths, long known among landscape
gardeners as one of the most persis-
tent and destructive insects with
which they have to deal. Within
the limits of Central park they seem
to have sprung into life in unusually
large numbers this year. Charles
Downing Lay, the landscape architect
of the park, said recently that in
recent trip through the parks of
Brooklyn and the Bronx he saw COM
paratively few of them.
E. S. Avery, who lives at the Metro
politan club, and several other lovers
of New York's fine trees, have called
attention to this unfortunate state of
affairs, and have not hesitated to say
that unless the deadly moth situation
is taken in hand quickly and forcibly

Manhattan island which possess hand
some trees will see many of the best
specimens degenerated to decaying
stumps before the approach of anoth-

Landscape architects and authori-
ties on trees who were asked yester-
day If it were too late in the season
to do anything to counteract the de-
structive effects of these pests said
on the contrary that this was the ume
to get to work. AS soon as the cater
pillars emerge from their cocoons,
which they are now doing by the
thousands, they start upward for the
green leaves, upon which they feed,
and then return to the trunk to lay
their eggs within the bark. If the
trees are we'll sprayed with arsenate
