How to Cut the Gas Bill

invented simple and inexpensive
device, which effected a decided saw
Ing in my gas bill," says a writer in
the March Woman's Home Compan-
ion.
1.-THE only material necessary Is a
sheet of asbestos board the same size
and shape as the top of the gas stove.
When possible, it is advisable to get
the cellular or air space style of as
bestos sheet or covering, as it is a
somewhat better heat insulator than
the solid type. The cellular style of
board should be about an inch thick;
. half-inch is sufficient for the solid
sheet.
"Cut round holes in this sheets x-
actly over the lids or burners in the
stove and of the same size. The cir
cular pieces cut out are used in the
same manner as stove lids. Then
place this sheet in position upon the
top Of the stove.
''Since asbestos is an excellent
non-conductor of heat, the heat gen.
Grated by the gas flame is kept in
the stove. where it belongs, 1nsteao
Of being wasted by radiation into the
surrounding atmosphere. This tends
to make the kitchen noticeably cool
or in warm weather, and less gas is
needed to achieve the required ends.
Formerly, if something was cook
ing on one of the burners of the
stove, and it was decided to heat, say,
kettle of water, another burner
was lighted. Now it is necessary
merely to remove the asbestos lid
from the burner nearest to the light
ed one, place the kettle on the open
Ing, and shortly the kettle begins to
sing, heated by the waste energy or
the other burner"

A Sinking Fund For Sickness

In the Fami1y's Money department
of the March American Magazine is
the story of a man who found that
the one thing he could not count on
was illness in the family. He looked
over the accounts for the previous
two or three years-and he was UNI
able to get an average to make a
provision. When first married his
salary was $4,000 year, which, with
the coming of two children had put
him little in debt. But an increase
in salary to $4,000 enabled him to
get out again.
Give years ago he determined to
establish sinking fund for sickness.
He started transfer of $50 for an
other savings account and then put
in two dollars week. Because they
were sensible people and knew the
value Of health there was a surplus
at the end of the first year of 500.
In that year he had an additional
raise Of salary, therefore he increas-
ed the sinking fund at the beginning
OF the second year to So a week. AS
they were expecting another child
there was an actual reason for this.
At the end of the second year there
was very little surplus. But by the
middle of the third year he had
again over 500 in this sinking fund
account. Now after taking care of
the Incidental illness of the family
they have still a surplus of $3.50 or
5000.
This plan had several advant-
ages. 1t saved the shock of the I'M
expected draft on income, and gave
the sense of security. By far the
greatest effect was that it brought
closely and practically to the family
the necessity of studying problems
Of health. I.

Concealed Bathtub Made
For Small Dwelling

by utilizing the space ordinarily
wasted beneath a kitchen sink as
a place of concealment for bath
tub, curious plan has been evolved
for providing bathing facilities in
cramped houses which are without
toilet rooms" says the March Popu-
lar Mechanics Magazine, in an illus
trated article. 1.-The sink and its ac-
drain board occupy the
top of a movable cabinet of neat ap-
pearance. The blackboard of this is
permanently fixed to wall. and wa
ter faucets are attached to it imme-
diately over the sink. The bathtub
is permanently installed beneath the
cabinet and at the front end sup
ports a small basin, connected with
the waste pipe, into which the water
from the sink is drained. Normally
the bathtub is entirely out of sight.
When it is to be used, however, the
cabinet, holding the sink, is moved
away from the wall to give free &C
cess to it. Water is then supplied
through faucets attached to the
board above"

This object of pity was found in
Cambridge. Filth, hunger and neglect
caused the wretched condition of this
child. His body was covered with
hideous and painful sores. The
home, q small howell, was found in
describably dirty-no beds. no mat
tresses.
1t was through the efforts of the
visiting nurse, Miss Balmer, that this
child was taken from his parents and
placed in the care Of the Maryland
Children's Aid Society. Miss Balmer
herself took the child to Baltimore.
Three other children in this family
were taken at once by the Society,
and good homes have been found for
them. The boy In the picture has
been placed on a farm in Talbot
county. Cleanliness, special diet ana
treatment have improved this little
sufferer SO much that you would
hardly recognize him.
This Is only one Of the many cases
OF dire need relieved by Miss Balmer.
The organizations interested in
Child Welfare believe that the most
effective way to advance the work in
this community is to support the
Visiting Nursing Association. viii

WORLDS LEADING
TOBACCO TOWN
N. c., Now Manufac-
lures More Tobacco Products Than
ANY Other City i'm The World.

Following are extracts from an ad-
dress delivered by Col. A. d. Watts,
Collector of Internal Revenue for the
Fifth District of North Carolina, at
a smoker given by The Twin City
Club, Winston-Salem, Feb. 4, 1916:
"Winston-Salem is supplying one
fourth of all the chewing and smok-
ing tobacco consumed in the United
States, besides exporting vast guam
titles to foreign lands. This state
ment is taken from the report of
the Commissioner of Internal Reve-
nue. for the first quarter of the pres
ent fiscal year and from private adj
vices from Washington, as to the Sec
ond quarter, which ended December
31st, last.
Your city Is making one-seventh
of all tobacco Notwithstanding and
smoking tobacco, cigars, cigarettes
and snuff manufactured in the
United States. Your manufacturers
are paying on an average about $751;
600 a day revenue taxes to the gov
eminent and the amount is increas-
ing from month to month. When
your government building, much the
handsomest in the State, was COM
pleted last July at a cost of $780,
'UOO,your newspapers made the state
ment that the taxes paid in your city
to Uncle Sam for the first eight days
of it's occupancy would pay for it.
Since September, it has taken only
a fraction over seven average days
collections here to equal its cost. So
far this week, Mr.. Crawford has ia
ken in S2O6, 42S.50. I predict that
before 1916 shall have ended your
average weekly payments to the gov
eminent on tobacco will more than
pay for this magnificent building,
leaving the collections for the other
ifty-one weeks as clear profit to the
government.
"Winston-Salem is shipping on an
average each week day to all parts of
this country and to foreign lands at
least $150,000 of tobacco products.
In conclusion, WinstonSalem
manufactures more tobacco, all to-
bacco products are taken into this
statement, than any other city on
earth, little or big. Industrially, she
is easily first in North Carolina, pop
ulation considered, first in America,
and I believe, in the world; socially.
Ia never failing delight to her
friends"
