BEST BOOKS TO READ IN BED
Serious Literature Should Be Selected
Novels roo Apt to Lave the
Brain Excited.

Why Is It that the habit of reading
In bed it 80 often condemned? Surely
It is only taking ones recreation in
the pleasantest possible way. and that
Is what we all strive after II we do not
always attain IT,
Taken In the right way II Is an ex-
cellent cure for insomnia. but taken
in the wrong way II forms an insidi-
GUS root for that disease.
The fundamental point is TO choose
ones bed books with as much care as
one would expend In selecting a house.
Nobody should read a novel In bed
II they wish to pass sound, undis-
turbed night. The incidents of the
story force themselves into our mind
until we become an actor in the tale
itself. and eventually wake with a
brain that has had no rest.
Then. again. good novel Tor for
that matter a bad one) tempts us TO
go on reading until we have reached
the end and know the best (or the
worst.
Then the noxious influence begins
to work, for no person, even the most
clear-headed, can read novel of the
usual length at one sitting. and feel
better In mind for doing so. Modera-
tion extends to reading as to every
thing else. and those who Ike to
take their literature in gulps are rare
ly able to appreciate its finer quail
ties
My own opinion is that the best bed
books are those which are usually
classed as serious works. Under this
heading come essays. "reminiscences.
descriptive works and philosophy

Bride Proved Her ResoarcefuIness on
the Occasion OF First Formal

She was only a bride. and this was
her fret dinner party. Her husband,
a fire prevention engineer aud a gradu-
ate of Boston Tech. was to bring
homo SONS Of his classmates. IN whose
honor the little wife had planned
red dinner" The candelabra shades
were to be red. She would serve
tomato soup as the first course. to be
followed by red meat and baked pota-
toes sprinkled with paprika. The salad
dressing and the dessert would like
wise harmonize with che color scheme.
When the guests arrived. however,
they found everying In yellow. SAT

over the table. A clam bouillon was
served as the first course. then leg

Il thought we were going TO have
red dinner, dearie. said the hus-
band when the guests had left.

NEED is PRACTICAL LIGHT
improvements in illumination WIN
Come When II Is Known Just
What is Desired.

Although glare In illumination has
been described rather aptly as light
out OF place" on the same principle
that dirt is matter out OF place" and
condemned for that reason, the guam
titative relations of the subject are
usually entirely forgotten or misun-
derstood- Nothing is more exasper-
ating than the glare Of an unshielded
arc lamp while within the field of
view and few yards of. and yet
the same lamp In the same part of the
field couple of blocks away is not
in the slightest degree disturbing to
the normal eye. Moreover, a sum
cheney quantity OF light may become
very annoying. although its angular
position in the field is such that were
it trivial in amount no one would pay
any attention to 1t. Il Is these quanti-
tatiye relations OF things that should
be impressed on people who are work
ing with the best intentions toward
improving the conditions OF illumina-
tion. The public seldom realizes the
quantitative relations Of things, and
when these are important should be
made to comprehend them as quickly
as It does the quantitative values. BY
all means let us work toward the re-
duction OF glare, but first let Es find
out from a practical standpoint what
is really to be desired. Electrical

GREEN BRANCHES AS FODDER

Hay seems to have been little known

Elizabeth, gives much advice to the
farmer as TO the cutting and storing
Of green branches, which might serve
as fodder. when pasture failed. He
is particular as to the desirability Of

produce was saved for the horses Of

WHAT PEOPLE

story Of the Town pump.

story OF tire Town Pump.
Less than a year ago a decree went
forth from the insurance commission
er that better and larger pumps must
be provided for our ~ water works
Our city Council sent chicago for an
expert and paid him $40 per day and
all expenses to come and examine our
pump and tell them what To do.
Such mechanics as Minor Conrad.
Geo. Dashner and Clarence Johnson
we're passed up Tor an import who was
well acquainted with The insurance
Commissioner and pump salesman
On the recommendation Of this ex-
pert. our guardian angels purchased
two new pumps. paying $4,000 for
same. and, incidentally. throwing our
pumps in for good trade. These
pumps we're IN use the morning OF the
Garner mill fire, and operating with
such force as to cause six leaks ia
mains in different parts OF the city,
and all the time pumping more water
than our present filtering system could
filter Since this pump trade was
consummated. and over thirty days.
one Of our supposedly inoapacitated
pumps was shipped to the factory.

traded our big new pump for cleo

There is yet another feature Of this

argument in favor Of having some one
