TELLS HOW TO LIVE CHEAP
Prof. Blackmar OF Kansas University
Gives Seven Ways to Reduce LiV-
ing Cost.

Seven ways to reduce the cost Of
living have been discovered by Dean
Frank w Blackmar of the University
of Kansas, says Moody's Magazine.
They are:
Let the government check the de-
cline in the purchasing power of gold
by taking, automatically, seignorage
Of the bullion that is behind the dol
lar, thus leaving the value of the col
lar stable and allowing its weight to
vary with the rise and fall of average
prices
Induce more people to engage in the
production OF raw material Intro
duce scientific intensive agriculture in
order to double production per acre.
Revise the tariff by scientific treat
ment
Prevent as far as possible organi2a-
tions from advancing prices arbitrari-
ly, placing a maximum limit upon
prices il necessary. Introduce simp
Ter and less expensive methods Of
bringing the commodity to the con
sumer. Educate people in the princi-
pies and habits of true economy, thus
doing away with extravaganza and
waste.

FINELY BRED ARCTIC HORSES
Experiment in Yukon May Mean the
Development of New and I'M
portant Industry.

A firm Of miners has been making
an experiment in the Yukon territory,
in latitude about SO degrees, which, IL
successful, promises to develop into
an extensive and important industry
in raising horses.
A pasture is maintained on the
Duke river, where there is an abund.
ance of fine pasture lands, and horses

what they can themselves rustic.
Last summer 25 brood mares were
imported from Vancouver. and all of
them wintered fine A number of
mares were brought from Oregon,
which foaled last spring, and all the
colts lived and are making more
hardy animals than their predecessors.
Colts foaled farther north have grown
into the hardest Of horses, having be-
come protected from the cold by the
growth Of a longer hair, similar to
that of the buffalo.

NEW WAY or CURING COLDS
Germs Are Now Being Injected into
Persons Suffering From This Com
mon Ailment.

Hypodermic injections are becoming
quite popular as a means of admins
tering cures for various ailments In
the larger cities of the United States
vaccine treatment for colds is now be-
ing administered to those frequently
suffering from the ailment by physi-
clans, the preparation requisite for
the purpose being put UP in tiny glass
vials. Each vial holds a single dose
to be injected hypodermically.
The treatment in question is given
in cases where the patient shows a
tendency to recurrent attacks. Such
attacks are not only annoying, but
may even be dangerous, by reason Of
other troubles to which they are liza
BILE to lead.
Common "coryza.' or cold in the
head" with it's various complications,
probably costs the people Of the Unit
ed States more, in suffering and
money loss, than diphtheria and pneu-
monia combined
In vaccinating for colds the physi-
clan employs a preparation of the
germs by which the trouble is
caused. These germs are propagated
by billions in beef broth, and then
killed by heating the fluid to boiling
point
Being dead, they can do no harm,
but they contain the specific poison
OF the disease, which, when intro
duced into the circulation by the hy-
podermic syringe, starts the cells of
the body to making an anti-poison
deadly to living germs of that particu
lar malady.
Thus an immunity to the latter is
producer-the principle involved being
the same as that which renders vac
cination for typhoid fever a preven-
tive of that cmplaint

hear that the unpalatable soup was

The highest mountain now existing
in Oregon, Mount Hood, is only H.,

probably before the dawn Of life upon

thousands of years ago this mountain

TRAINING THE YOUNG CHILD
Kindergarten Idea Is to Take Child's
Destructive Desires and Turn
Them Into Educatlve Play.

The kindergarten idea is to take a
child's destructive desires and turn
them into eduoatiye, constructive play.
So child may make pictures with his,
otherwise dangerous scissors. The
scissors should be q small blunt
pointed pair. Then furnish him with
black or dark-brown paper-wrapping
paper will suit If there is nothing bet
ter-and let him make silhouette pic
lures. The cuttings from the dark
paper will be mounted on white paper
to show up Well At first, help the
little fingers to cut few geometric
forms, a square. an oblong "a circle
or a triangle. Then let the child re
peat these in larger or smaller size.
Cutting straight strips of the same
size. or varying sizes, is good work
for the little artist, too
When this has been fairly mastered,
suggest combinations for making pic
lures. Select a subject connected with
his own play as, for instance, his
little cart. A black oblong makes the
body, two circles are the wheels, and
a narrow strip of black paper pasted
to the front is the handle. The child's
set of garden tools may be expressed
in this way and such familiar objects
as tables and chairs.
Vary the occupation occasionally by
cutting from light paper and pasting
on to the dark
Don't let this paper-cutting play be-
come too ordinary. Keep ii for oc-
casions and, too, insist that all scraps
be picked up when the play is over.

FEET TAKE PLACE or HANDS
English Woman, Born Without Arms
Has Taught Herself to Sew,
Cook and Write.

At Eastbourne. says an English
paper, resides a woman probably
without an equal in the country. She
was born minus arms yet she can do
almost anything with her feet. Her
name is Mrs. Peirce of Tower street,
and recently she attended a dinner
given to the old people of the town
by the local lodge of Buifaloes.
She surprised everybody present
by placing her feet upon the table,
and picking up the knife and fork
with marvellous dexterity commenced
to enjoy the feast, She manipulated
the knife and fork quite as well as
any ordinary person would with her
hands, and although she looked very
uncomfortable with her feet on the
table, she was quite at ease.
One had to look very closely to-
discern that Mrs. Peirce was actual
ly using her feet. and had any one
been looking round and had not
known of her infirmity, they would
have passed without noticing any
thing. so natural did she look.
AS housewife, Mrs. Peirce is
truly wonderful. She cooks the din
ner, cleans the house; in fact, she
fulfills-and very creditably, too-al
