The Fresh Air Cure.

Plenty of fresh, pure air is an ies.
sential part of patients treatment.
Pure air is just as important and
necessary for good health as are pure
food and pure water.
Fresh air and sunlight are the
cheapest and best agents for the re-
coYery of an Ill person.
Let fresh air and sunlight enter
your sick rooms, through open win
dows as much as possible.
Expose the bed clothing to the open
air and sunshine for some time each
day.
Sleep with the bedroom windows
open, says nurse. The old superstt.
tion that night air Is unhealthy even
for ar. invalid Is entirely false. On
the contrary, night air, especially in
large cities, is purer and better than
day air, because it contains less dust
and fewer microbes.
To get the best ventilation have the
window open at both top and bottom.

To Boil Eggs Properly. o g

Z. There are three good ways to boil
IN egg that has been cracked. A. very
simple one is to add quite a little salt
to the water In which the egg is to be
boiled. This will prevent the white
coming out. II the crack Is very large.
wrap the egg In a piece Of soft paper.
The wet paper adhering to the egg, pre-.
vents the egg coming out Of the shell.
If there Is only a tiny crack at one
end, make a4tiny opening in the other
end with a needle and the desired re.
suit is secured. The latter method may
be used to boil eggs preserved In
water glass, the puncture being made
at both ends. DR. &
