FEATHER BEDS

The feather bed isn't fashionable
any more Once a highly respected
and respectable furnishing of the bed
chamber of well-to-do American fam
lilies, its possession nowadays brings
blush of shame to the fair cheeks of
the budding children of the family.
In pioneer days, the fireplace, and
later the sitting room, stove. didn't
heat much more than 3 sirgle room.
The bedrooms were cold in spite of the
fact that the windows were sealed shut
from early fall to late spring. The
housewife treasured the down and
feathers of departed fowls and made
them up into much appreciated bed
ding.
AS we grew more prosperous and the
furnace supplanted the highly or
namented base-burner, all of the rooms
were mfortably heated. The feather
bed then became vulgar-a symbol of
departed days and primitive living
conditions. For some years, we lolled
about in overheated rooms as happy as
bears in their winter quarters. The
strong, hardy pioneers were succeeded
by a generation which threatened to be
as nonresistant to disease as are Gagged
menagerie animals in the geological
gardens. Then along came the doctors
with the disturbing proof that people
were dying earlier and in greater nnm-
bers than they should and that their
luxuries were softening them. One OF
the proposed remedies and preventive
measures was better ventilation with
return to resistance building, cold fresh
outdoor, winter air. Bedrooms became
cold again at night.
The modern style of bedmaking, how
ever. is better calculated for warm than
cold weather sleeping. Something has
to give way. Either we shall have to
secure warmer beds or return to
warmed bedrooms The former alter
native is to be desired. By the way,
why shouldn't peoples bodies rest on
feathers, if feathers are acceptable for
pillows? If the perky daughter of the
family approves of the down-cOmforter
why should she be fearful that the
neighbors may learn that an otherwise
up-to-date home harbors feather bed?

FRIDAY JANUARY 10, 1917.
THIS YEARS PORK BARREL.

The politicians after due and ancient
confabbing and log-rolling have de-
cided that the pork barrel this year
shall contain 500, 900, 900 worth of this
delectable food. Not all of this IS
nnre pork-there is some mutton and
little beef, but for large part 1t is pig
and fat pig at that, particularly for Ger
tain of the southern streams which are
TO be made navigable like the river
Brazos in Texas
And while the politicians are frying
the pork, the administration is sweat
ing in it's attempt to devise ways and
means for meeting a huge deficit or
making it apvear not TO be a deficit.
We ought to have MIR. Charles Evans
Huohes in the house or senate to stop
this graft or at least hold it up to pub
lie view.
The one redeeming feature of the
measure is provision for a commission
to study river and harbor and flood
control problems and to report next
December with recommendations This
has promising aspect of putting such
legislation on a scientific and national
plane which it is to be hoped will be
soonrealized. -Green Bay Press-Gazette

Give your child nickel occasionally
1t won't break you, and it will give the
child it's first lessons in the art of
handling money. But most important
of all, teach it to save two cents of
every nickel you give it. That will
teach it thrift and the art of saving.
Let it take its pennies out and count
them over. Every time it counts them
it will want to add few more to the
pile That will inculate the art of
accumulation. But don't let it depend
on what you GIVE it. 1t should be
taught to EARN money, and the first
lesson should go with the first nickel.
That will demon strate Tie necessity
and increase its capacity for work. And
in after years, when success has
crowned its efforts, it will look back
over the lapse of time and tell others
that it had the best father and mother
that God ever permitted to live.

How much does your drinking water
cost you? Nothing? Well, drink more
Of it and live longer. Drink lot more
and live longer still. Plenty of pure
water is good for the digestion. 1t, is
better than anything you can take, for
it is natures own remedies. Here's
the proof. Stop the first ten men you
meet and ask each one of them how
much water he drinks each day. Some
will drink but little, and before you
leave they will probably make some
complaining remark about their stom-
ach And they will keep on making
those remarks until they die-unless
they drink more water. Others will
tell you that they drink large quantiLles
every day, and won't even mention
their stomachs. OF course not, for
there is no occasion. Water has done
it's work and the digestion is in perfect
working order Drink more water.
You will live longer and die happier.

Have you ever wondered what the re-
suit would be if the people of this town
thought and said nothing but good of
each other for thirty or sixty days?
Think! 1t would work a revolution in
