THE OPEN WINDOW.

A medical inspector of the Phila-
delphia public schools, with the CO.
operation Of teachers and parents,
recently made an experiment to de-
termine the value of cold fresh air
in school rooms, which was reported
in the American Journal of Public
Health. He opened the windows at
top and bottom, and kept them open
throughout the winter. The room
was shut off from the heating plant
of the building except on the oc-
casional days when the temperature
fell below forty-five degrees; but the
children of course wore extra wraps
and had frequent drills and eXer-
cises.
Week by week during the fall and
winter and spring this physician
weighed and examined the pupils,
watched their study and their play
and compared their progress in
health and scholarship with that of
pupils in another room of the same
building. In that other room, the
pupils were of the same grade, and
of about the same number, but the
room was heated and ventilated ac-
cording to the usual methods. The
! pupils in both rooms were normal
| healthy children from the same kind
of homes, so that the test was as
fair, accurate and searching as pos
sible.
At the end the inspector found
that the pupils in the open window
room had gained in weight on an
average. more than twice as much
! as those in the warm air room. The
pupils in the open room kept wholly
free from colds, and were much
more regular in attendance than the
others. They were also more alert,
free from day-dreaming, quicker to
learn, needed less review work and
were better behaved. In health and
happiness, in development both OF
mind and body, the children of the
room with open windows had a clear
advantage over the others.
In these days, the gospel of Sun
shine and pure air ought to need
little preaching. Most of us ac-
cept it, but we do not always prac.
tice the doctrine that we believe in
and preach. This Philadelphia ex.
pertinent lay not in giving the Open.
Air treatment to sick children
which everyone approves; it lay in
giving to we'll children some of the
good things that Nature intended
that they should enjoy, and in dem
onstrating to the school officials and
parents the advantages of lower
school-room temperatures.
AS a result the school board, rec
ognizing their value, has authorized
the establishment of open window
classes in several other Philadelphia
schools.

Agreement-Settled in Della
ware County Court Tuesday.
A verdict Of $170 was brought in
by the jury Tuesday in the Delaware
county court in the action brought
by William H. Appley, of Hancock,
against Lafayette DEMO, of Equin-
unk, to recover on an alleged part
nership agreement.
The men had been working to-
gether on a lumber job at Equinunk
and last June settled their accounts.
Appley claims that they fixed the
value of the standing timber at $500
and agreed on price of two cents a
foot for $4,000 feet of small timber
which had been cut. This would
make the value of the timber $3.50.
Appley alleged that in making the
settlement a mistake was made in
figuring and he was paid only $40
by DEMO for his share of this tim
Der instead of $340. He claimed he
discovered the mistake next day, but
DEMO refused to rectify it.
DEMO claimed that the agreement
made was that Appley was to re-
ceive only $40 and that there had
been no mistake in figuring. The
jury brought in a verdict for Appley
for $40, the amount sued for.

Stops Scalp Itch
Dandruff and Every Form of Scalp
Disease Cured Quick by Zemo.

1t is simply wonderful how Zemo
goes after dandruff. You rub little
of it in with tips of the fingers. 1t
gets right down into the glands, slim
ulates them, stops the itch, and
makes the head feel fine. No, 1t
isn't sticky! Zemo is a fine, clear,
vanishing liquid. You don't have to
even wash your hands after using
Zemo. And what wonder 1t is for
eczema, rash, pimples and all skin
Affections. A 25-cent bottle at A. NJ
Leine's drug store, Honesdale, is
guaranteed to stop any skin irrita-
tion.
zemo is prepared by e. w. Rose
Medicine Co., st. Louis, Mo-, and is
regularly sold by druggists at 81 a
bottle. But to prove what it will do
at trifling expense, zemo is now put
up in ascent trial bottles.

Republican Ideas Approved

The highest compliment that
cou,i have been paid the Repub-
lican party OF Missouri AMI its gu

party and its new governor. The
Democratic leaders,, n their con-

bodied them in their Platform,
thus putting the stump OF Demo-

p'e1ging to enact them into laws
" empowered to do so by the poo

Democratic ,ea1ers knew at that
time that the people slvo? OF

and GIRO because the ID. motratic

in preventing the enlc:m NJ o

The first money the United

the mails are carried. Before the

One OF the most beneficial re-
suits OF the late Republican State
administration is the change
wrought in the political sentiment
Of the people. When that admin
istratbon began II was common to
hear otherwise good men speak Of
political tricks and schemes as
though they were to be reg raed
as ,air and proper for partisan
purposes. Now there is a most
positive aversion, on the part OF
all good ct zens, to anything that
smacks OF trickery or unfair deal
ing IN politics. The political boss
Is fairy despi'ei. The political
schemer is discounted to such an
extent that he can hardy 'put
over a scheme no meter how
shrewi.y ii may he devised. Pub
lie sentiment has been ar,uged and
the demand for honesty in poll
tical Leadership is as strong as the
demand Ger honest e.ections-and
the demand for honest elections Is
so strong that the people will no
longer brook any interference. with
an honest ballot. The opinion OF
the Supreme Court in the eject on
contest cases, and the reversal o,
the long established NJ rshall de-
Sls'on CLOSING ballot boxes to the
courts has put an entirely df'er mt
and a far better light upon cor
ruption in elections.
