cltnIs LIahtlna to cost Less.


According to the annual report OF
William Williams, commissioner of
the department of water supply, gas
and electricity of the city of New
York, for 1914, the street lighting bill
for 1915 will be 100000 less than
for 1914. A good portion of the saw
ing is said to- have been effected by
the use of nitrogen-iilled tungsten
lamps in place of the arc lamps. The
former are being rapidly introduced
all over the city. In fact, before the
end of the year it Is expected that
$4,000 gas lamps will be replaced by
the electric incandescent lamps. An
interesting comparison between the
relative cost of operating nitrogen
filed tungsten lamps and arc lamps
is presented in the following figures:
3OO,-watt nitrogen-filled tungsten
lamps cost $40 year each to operate.
while the 4OO.watt lamps cost SIT. The
cost of operating arc lamps was $85
each: a reduction of IS having been
effected in the course of the current
year.

The wooden sills are ccmented to the

into the wall which reach through the

CONTAGIOUS DISEASES AND TIL;
SCHOOLROOM.

Whenever large numbers Of vnil-
dren come together. there is always
an increase in the number OF cases
of contagious disease. This is esne-
cially true when the thousands Of
boys and girls return to school after
the summer vacation
Thousands of children die each
year from the contagious diseases.
Besides, countless children are sick
with them.
All mothers know that such illness
can often be prevented. All teach
ers know that contagious diseases
can often be prevented. Mothers
and teachers should therefore do all
in their power to prevent the spread
of these diseases.
AS soon as your child shows any
signs of illness such as fever. rash,
coughing, vomiting or sore throat,
sneezing and watering of the eyes, do
not send him to school. Keep him
home that morning. Send for the
doctor to make sure that your child
is not suffering from any one OF
the contagious diseases. Who knows
but that the persistent coughing
sneezing and watering of the eyes
may be the first signs of an attack OF
measles? The Group cough and sore
throat may be the beginning of diph
iberia, or the vomiting and rash ma!
be the signs of scarlet fever.
Take no chances. BY sending YOU
child to school when he shows suci
signs of illness You not only plac'
your own child's life in danger bu
you also endanger the life and healtl
of hundreds of other children. Wha
should you think of the mother Wit
would send her child, sick with scar
let fever, to the very classroom which
your child attends? What shoult
YOU think Of that mother il you
child should get the disease and di
of it?
Do not send your child to schoo
when he shows any sign of illness.
