ment. Frequently. however, rooms in
which the ventilation and light have
been carefully attended to are robbed
of their henlthful atmosphere through
the nature of the furniture employed
and thus 1t will be seen that the equip
ment of room is quite as important
as its construction, and 1t is this point
above all others that the housewife
must bear in mind in the arrange
ment of the living room.
Foes to Comfort and Health.
The living rooms of yesterday were
adorned with heavy curtains, fringed
window cornices, crowds Of ornaments,
chimney boards and other devices for
keeping out the air, as well as mantei
curtains, picture throws, and several
other dust accumulators, and It seems
unfortunate that In many homes of
the present some of these same unde-
sirlblc adjuncts are still used, and no
doubt will continue to be, until all
housekeepers come to a realizing
knowledge Of their detriment to com
fort as well as to health.

popular with the rural women as 1t is
in the cities. Notice the amplitude of

BOOM THIRD TERM
 FOR THE PRESIDENT
Should Be Retained in Oiiice,
 Indiana Democrats Say

Indianapolis Ind, June 20.-~.As permanent chairman of the demo- cratic state convention, samuel M. Ralston, former governor of Indiana, yesterday launched boom for a third term for President Wilson. His words were received with wild cheering and there was not tho slightest doubt as to the sentiment of the crowd at the convention. After praising the rec ord of the president and the adminis- tration, Mir. Ralston said:
 ''I seek to bind no man except my self by what l say here. In these troublesome days I care not the snap of my finger for q certain precedent we have highly regarded in times of peace. I shall not stand for a prece- dent that would interfere with eff ciency in carrying on the war or that would deny the country the services of the best ability in the roc0nstruc- ton period to follow the far. 1 main tain therefore, the eXigencies of the times call for the renominatOin and election in 1920 of Woodrow Wilson.
 'The duty of tho hour is to stand by men seeking office who approve the course of the national administration in the war. To demand this is not .llnreaSnaDIe. NermanS must not get the impression that the people of this country are not back of our govern ment in this war. and that impression is likely to be made in other nations if the people do not stand by the presidents party in the approaching election.
 "In 1898 this country was in war with old, decrepit Spain. In the fall of that year Colonel Roosevelt was a candidate for governor of New York. in one of his speeches he said: Re mem Der that whether you will or not your votes this year will be viewed by the nations of Europe from one stand point only. They will draw no fine distinctions. A refusal to sus- tain the president this year will, in their eyes, be read as a refusal to sustain the war, and to sustain the

 The contests for places on the tick ct were enlivened by squabbles with in the delegation from this (Marion) County, the most heated coming shortly before adournment over the nomination of judges for the appel late court for the first division.
 Vice President Marshall said later that the explanation of the birth and citizenship of A. F. Seested, the gen eral manager of The Kansas City Star, to which he referred to in his address before the convention, veri- fled his statements in his speech.
 News from Kansas City explained that Seested was born in Denmark, but that his parents became German subjects when the part Of Denmark in which they lived became German territory. MT. Seested had for many years considered himself a citizen of this country, the explanation said, but learned in 1916 that he was not be- cause of a technicality, after which he went through the naturalization proceedings.
 When the dispatches were shown to Mr. Marshall. he said:

THE PRICE YOU PAY

q know I ought to take treatment; |I have been running down for the asst year or two. l am all Tagged out, have no mbition, worry from morn Ing till night, don't care whether l am dead or alive, have lost weight and Xcannot do the same work l used to ho some years ago. If l were as strong as I was, l could earn good h good specialist, but I cannot afford fnoney I know 1 ought to treat with o pay for the treatment
 You are paying for it NOW, my friend, and dearly; yet you do not get it.
 Let me tell you why.
 Your health is your capital; your working capacity is the interest you Ire drawing.
 A good manager never spends more han his interest.
 Should he begin to draw on the tapital his interest would, of course, decrease.
 And what are you doing?
 You allow your health to run down nore and more: therefore, you can- ct work and earn what you used to. Do you see the point? You are draw ag on your capital--which is your kealth--by allowing it to run down, nd so the interest (yOur working apacityl is steadily growing smaller. You used to make good money; ow you earn about half Of what you sed to get.
 To make two, three or four dollars vas play to you: and you had all our heart and soul in your work. These happy days are gone.
 You now barely make a living and nd it almost beyond your strength. md you. shudder at the thought of that will happen when the final reakdown comes.
 Figure out in dollars and cents That you have lost already and you i'll be amazed at the amount; and Fhat you are gong to lose is beyond stimation
 The dollar you MIGHT earn, but |on't, is an actual expense to you ou spend it. And what do you get pr it. Worry, anxiety, despondency, ant and deprivation for your family. The dollar you take out Of your ocket and spend for treatment with h experienced specialist is not an kpense. It is an investment. And in eturn you get increased working bility, higher wages, health and hap iness at home.
 Which will you choose?
 Can you hesitate?

BELUGAS DRIVEN TO
 SHORE BY THRASHERS

A herd of five hudnred Beluga whales flashing white in the sun light as they described graceful arcs above the surface, fleeing from deep water in the middle of Cook Inlet to the shoal waters of Haliout cove in an effort to es- cape from the vicious charges of a school of thrashers, was the m usual sight that greeted the eye of Keith Mccullough several weeks ago as he was engaged in the fishing industry in Kachemak bay near Halbut cove.
 The school Of thrashers came in from the open sea and spotted the herd of belugas as they were play fully riding the waters in the inlet opposite SeldOYda. With lightning rapidity the thrashers attacked the hard and destroyed two Or thee pig bulls before the latter were ale to reach the shallow waters near the short, along which a reef runs for distance of several miles. Once in the shoal waters the white wha-es could be plainly observed and as long as the thTashers remained in the inlet the whales continued 10 remain in their retreat.
 The sight of the big number & whales so close in has never be- fore been noted even by the old es' inhabitants of Seldovia, said MT. Mccullough.
 Thrashers are the real sharks of the sea and their only purpose seems to be to attack and destroy other fish. They can only at talk their prey from beneath and require deep water fer their murderous activities. The whales are evidently advised Of this fact and no sooner Is 8 thrash CT noted than the whale immediate iy swfms for shallow water. But this is the first time, say old resi- deLts of the Seldovia country, that herd of the whales has ever been chased into the waters Of Halfbut coye.-Anchorage Times.
