SUCCESS

On September 3Oth, 1910 the Citizens
State Bank of OacOma, S. d., closed its doors
by order of the State Banking Department due
to irregular methods ~practiced by an officer of
the bank. The Public Examiner then directed
all Depositors to file proof of their claim against
the bank, and Immediately upon the proc eng
verified, the claim was paid i'm full from the
State DepositOrs Guarantee Fund.
ALL STATE BANKS in the state of South
Dakota are required to set aside a certain
amount subject to levy by the Public Examiner
for the purpose of SECURING the Depositors of
A BANKS. The HAND COUNTY STATE
BANK is a member of this guarantee plan and
contributed a small amount toward the pay

THE GOOD HEALTH
QUESTION BOX
By DIR. JOHN HARVEY KELLOGG

! TJEAT exhaustion differs from sunstroke
IL or thermlc fever Prolonged exposure
to high temperature, particularly when
| combined with physical exertion, is liable
to be followed by extreme prostration and
collapse.
The individual does not need to be ex-
| posed 10 the suns rays. Heat exhaustion
| may come on at night, or in close, hot
rooms. Great artificial heat may cause
such exhaustion working for hours over a
hot kitchen range will cause exhaustion.
and glass blowers and engine stokers often
suffer in the same way
Cases Of sunstrol<e occur usually when
persons are working hard exposed to the
sun. Soldiers on the march, heavily bur
dened, are liable to sunstroke
In our larger cities such cases are al
most exclusively confined to workmen who
labor in the sun-especially if at the same
time they have been drinking beer or
whisky Immoderate eating and eating the
wrong kind of food, especially meats, in
hot weather render one more liable to sun
stroke.
It is not wise TO expose the uncovered
head to tho direct rays Of the sun in hot
weather. on the golf links, on the beach,
| when working outdoors and when taking
sun baths the head should be protected
The difference between hea exhaustion
and sunstrolle is striking. In heat ex-
| haustion the skin is moist pale and cool :
breathing is easy though hurried the pulse
is small and soft, the mind clear. In sun
stroke, or heat apopleXy, there is usually un-
consciousness and high temperature.
The favorable symptoms after sunstroke
are the return Of consciousness and a fall
| in the fever.
The recovery from sunstroke Is in most
! cases complete. In other instances there
are remarkable after-effects, the most con-
stant Of which is a permanent inability
! to bear sun or heat or high temperatures.
| Such patients become uneasy when the
| thermOmenter reaches eighty degrees in
| the shade. There is often mental confusion
| or a failure of memory as an after-effect,
! which is worse in hot weather
For heat exhaustion, stimulating treat
ment is needed, and il the temperature is
! below normal the hot bath should be used
| Aromatic spirits Of ammonia may be given
| If necessary.
In sunstroke, the indications are to re-
| duce the temperature as rapidly as possible
Cooling baths are necessary. Ice COM
| presses should be placed upon the head and
! above the neck. An ice bag may be used
on the head. Cooling treatment should be
| continued until the temperature falls TO
! nearly normal. Water at sixty degrees
should be poured upon the patient from a
height, while two persons rub the patient
| vigorously with iced cloths Cool applica-
| tions TO the spine are useful. Cool water
| drinking is desirable If the patient is able
| to swallow. While pouring the cool water
| upon the patient, an ice bag should be kept
! on the head and cold congresses about the
! neck
After a sunstroke the patient should be
| rubbed daily with towel wrung from cold
water The head should be thoroughly
| cooled before such applications,

Dear Kate:

Dear Kate:
am teaching the boys to dance. You
would kill yourself a-laughing watching
them. After supper we push the Kitchen
table back, cause the kitchen is big old
fashioned kind, and Tom takes off his coat
because he goes at it as If he was going
to saw load of lumber and Jack runs the
phonograph and l try to teach Tom TO
dance but you might just as well teach an
elephant ITO valk a tightrope Tom is all

l come to about the second button on his
coat, and have an awful time trying TO get
him around. He tries so hard, he Fuckers
his face all up in worried lines and he
sweats and he breathes hard, and then
when he gets through he falls into a chair
just done up. mops his face and the back of
his neck with a Handkerchief or a handy
towel and says, Talk about work, why
l would rather load a dray all day" Then
when he gets cooled off he runs the phono-
graph for Jack. Jack dances lovely. He Is
awful light on his feet, You don't have to
show him step but oncL when he knows it (;
but he don't care much for dancing, not half
as much as Tom does, who would never
learn the tango if he lived thousand years
But it is funny to see Tom. When Jack is
a-dapcing Tom will take an onion and go in
front of Jack. holding it just out of reach
and moving just as Jack moves, as If he
was trying to chase the onion. When l say
Jack is a good dancer, Tom says, Sure, he
is, cause he thinks he is chasing an onion
Now, if we only had pig, no tellin' what
he'd do"
The one that can beat them all out is
Mrs. Cassidy. At first she wouldn't get up
and try, and said, The likes of an old
woman like me dancing around; but l

TN CONSIDERING this subject we shall
L have to subdlvide it by discussing: First,
the kitchen In which the housewife will do
all the work, and then the kitchen in which
the work will be done by one or two maids
In the first instance, It should be very
small, virtually a laboratory where every
thing Is within easy reach of one standing
in the middle of the room.
The illustration shows an arrangement
which may serve as basis as to what a
kitchen ought to be. 1t is a model which in
practice would be modified in many ways
to suit the conditions of particular prob
lem.
(a) The icebox has door to permit fill-
ing from the outside. If placed in an
entry where traversing the kitchen with
the ice would not be necessary, II Is just
as good to put the ice in from the in
side. The latest mechanical refrige-
rators are better than the ordinary icebox,
but they are not made and sold at rea-
sonable enough rates to interest the mod
est homebuider. The manufacturers
promise, however, that the price will soon
be within reach.

a gas range and an oil range. to be used
as an alternative where gas is not TO be
had.
(c) cabinet built in or set against
tne WALL WIN CupDOhru unuer Dread
shelf.
(d) Pothooks and shelves for supplies
and utensils over sink and range
(e) Bread shelf with a slide at one
end in the wall back of cabinet which
is convenient for passing dishes through
to the dining room.
In a small house where the housewife
does her own work, or even when there is
one maid, II is better to omit the pantry.
The closer the cooking is TO the dining
room the more convenient II is for her.
In the latest apartment houses in cities
pantres are omitted without causing any
inconvenience or disagreeableness because
OF odors from the kitchen, OF course, 1t is
necessary 10 make provision for the storage
of china either in the kitchen or dining
room to take the place Of the pantry
Since we have now done away almost en-
tirely with the old-fashoned kitchen coal
range. we have had TO find a substitute
for the hot-water back Of the coal range
and the tank on one side of the stove for
the heating and storage OF hot water.
The most economical method of heating
hot water is to have in the basement a
small laundry stove. the main purpose OF
which is to provide hot water for the bath
sink and tubs. These are easy to keen
going and require, even for good-sized
house, not more than about one shovel OF
coal a day The widely advertised sys.

good, but also expensive to run; a small
