garments and draperies can be made
practically none-inflammable
In his address to the National
Safety First Council at Philadelphia
he issues the following directions:
dissolve one pound of ammonium
phosphate i'm one gallon of cold water,
thus forming a clear solution for
which the garment should be soaked
for five minutes The garment can
then be taken out and allowed to dry
and can be worn with perfect safety
around fire. The solution is no more
harmful TO the material than the same
quantity of water. 1t will keep indie

be used for several suits. In order
to give this solution a severe test i

flimsy gauze, which ordinarily takes
fire and burns up completely in a
few seconds. One of these strips l
placed in the solution and allowed
to dry. The flame of a wax taper was
applied to the gauze for minute. AT
the end of that time the gauze was
blackened at the edges but remained

One of the prime factors In success
with turkeys is an outdoor life for both
old and young. In cold climates there
are times during the winter when a
shelter from high winds and storms Is
desirable, but from the time when the
poults have finished putting on the
first coat of feathers to the beginning
of extreme cold weather they should
have no protection except that Afforded
by the branches OF the trees.
Such a life is the one intended for
them by nature, and any attempt to
compel them TO lead more domestic

and general deterioration.

THE VALUE OF SALT IN
THE BATHROOM.

bathroom just what II is 10 food

Every one has heard OF the
splendid strengthening effects Of
salt water bathing but few
think of taking salt wafer baths
in their own tubs Sea salt can
be bought in any DRUG store, and
a large bag should be kept on
hand i'm the bathroom.
When you come home tired
out and nervous try salt bath.
You will find it invaluable for
weakness and nervousness. and
you will find that a month of

"tired feeling" In fact, the wo-
man who bathes in salt water
two or three times a week feels
too vigorous and strong ever to
know that tired sensation.
If the skin on the face or
throat is nabby you will find a
salt massage of the greatest
benefit. This will make the skin
firm and strong. Just take a
half handful OF salt and rub It

the face off with cold water.
The action Of the salt, wheth-

Guthrie's expression indicated that he
was unable to recall anything he had es-
pecially desired to see, but he dutifully
responded by jogging Musketeer and
clucking "giddap." The mule wouldn't
giddap. His rider managed to rein him
about six feet behind Teddy, but further
than that he would not go. And when
Guthrie ventured once more to raise the
quirt. he tucked his tail.
The engineer didn't like the symp-
toms. He shouted some excuse to Lois,
and permitted Musketeer to have his
way.
"He seems to prefer it near YOU" he
remarked nafvely. "You seem to soothe
him."
Eunice smiled. After moment the
engineer spoke again:

Teddy was very near, Musketeer offered
no objection to the arrangement. How
