FOR HEALTH IN HOUSEHOLD
observances That Seem Simple in
Themselves, but Really Are of
the Highest Importance.

Is there a thermometer in your liv-
ing and sleeping rooms?
Are the living rooms kept at
temperature not exceeding 20 de-
gress?
Have you any method of ventilat-
ing the top of the rooms where foul
air Is apt to collect?
Are your windows arranged so
that they can be lowered from the
top?
Are your sleeping rooms kept cooler
than your living rooms?
Do you open your chamber window
and turn back your bed covers as soon
as you are dressed?
Do you open your closet door at the
same time?
Are all living rooms and sleeping
rooms aired each day?
Does the member of the family who
is the last to retire thoroughly air the
living room where the family has been
sitting during the evening, in order
that the foul air may not have a chance
to circulate through the house during
the night?
Time and money spent in attaining
these ends will be well invested, and
the householder will be rightly repaid
by increasing vigor, comfort and hap
piness of every member of the family.

Coffee Cakes.

After beating together about four
ounces of butter and four ounces of
sugar, stir in gradually half a pound
of sifted flour, two well-beaten eggs
and little milk. Add six ounces of
pumped currants. Make a small guam
tity of strong coffee and when cool,
add good tablespoonful to the mix
ture. Then mix in heaped teaspoon
full of baking powder. Put into creased
patty tins and bake in brisk oven for
about fifteen minutes. While warm
they should be iced with an icing fia-

Aromatic Spice Apple.

This harKs back to the days when
our grandmothers were young girls,
with all of the girls love for fra
grant scents and odors. A small red
apple is selected, care being taken
that it is perfect one, and the en-
tire outside is covered with cloves,
the small ends of which are stuck
into the apple until none of the skin
of the latter is exposed. When dried
in cold room overnight, an orna-
mental bow is tied to the stem and
the aromatic apple is then ready to
impart it's delightful fragrance to the
articles in trunks, drawers, etc.

OriainaI ST. Sophia.

One of the most interesting of Sa-
loniki's famous % churches is St.
Sophia. Like it's greater homonym of
Constantinople, the National Geo
graphic Magazine observes, it is a
domed basilica, and it was long con-
sidered to be provincial copy of that
great original. AS matter of fact,
the Saloniki church is the original,
having been built hundred years or
more the earlier, at the end of the
fourth or the beginning of the fifth
century. The church has suffered dis
astrou ly by fire, earthquake and
restoration, but the original lines of
the structure remain, as well as the
pillars and beautiful capitals of wind
blown acanthus, and two fine frag-
ments of mosaic. The principal mosa-
ic, an Ascension, with decorative green
trees between the standing figures,
lines the great dome. 1t is supposed
to date-from 645, though the figure of
Christ in the center is older still.
