Clothes to Be Washed.

There is nothing so "unhandy' in
the management of your house as not
to have sufficient or convenient recep-
tacles for the disposal of soiled clothes
There are some women who seem to
think that clothes chutes are the only
way out of the problem, but to make
these adequate you would have to
have one in the pantry between kitch-
en- and dining room. one in every
bathroom and one in every bedroom
that did not have a bathroom of its
own. Then the laundry chute pre-
supposes. of course. some very vigil
liant person who goes around below
stairs gathering the things that have
been "chuted" down and accumulat-
ing them for the next wash day.
damp and dark and slightly damp
raiment becomes nodded while wait
ing for washing.
A very good idea if you do have
chutes is to have large wooden rack
in the laundry where clothes that do
come down moist or damp can be hung
to dry before being bundled off with
the other clothes. And if you have no
chutes and clothes are left in your
own quarters until laundry day then
you should take precaution to dry
them before putting them in bag or
basket. 1t is mistake that a good
many people make to put used bath
towels and face cloths in the laundry
basket when they are damp. OF
course, what we should do is to hang
them on the towel rack until they
have dried out and then put them in
the basket.
Laundry baskets are high in price
at present and housewife was re-
GREETING this fact the other day when
she was wishing that she might have
a separate laundry container for each
of the bedrooms of her house. The
laundress, who managed her own
small household on a decidedly limited
income, suggested her own scheme
of making laundry containers. She
gets very large peach baskets and,
after having them thoroughly washed,
she shirs any sort of cheap cotton
goods she can get hold of in widths
the length Of the basket. One shirred
piece she puts around the basket and
another inside. To be sure, the bas-
ket is uncovered, but it is clean and
washable and surely better than hav
ing no basket at all. She would have
done well had she finished the sides
of her pieces of muslin with . hem
through which to run tape or cord for
the shirring. This could then be
tackled in place at the top every four
or five inches with little tacks that
could be taken out when she wanted
to wash the covers

Soiled hands, common drinking cups

Probably. but by no means certainly.
there will be recurrence OF the IN
f1uenza epidemic this year, the United
States public health service an
nounces Indications are that should
it occur it will not be as severe as
the pandemic of last winter. City off,
citls, state and city boards of health
and individuals are warned to pre-
pare, in the event of a recurrence.
"Quite frankly. no one can say with
any certainty whether there will be
recurrence of last winters horror"
Surgeon General Rupert Blue of the
public health service declared. So far
as the most careful scientific investi-
cations have been able to determine,
no cure or specific for influenza has
been discovered, according to Cen

the regulations often leaves much TO

Question of Immunity Discussed.

The fact that previous attack
brings immunity in certain per-
centage of cases should allay fear on
the part of those afflicted in the pre-
yious epidemic, public health service
officials believe. Influenza IS spread
by direct and indirect contact.
1t is not yet certain that the germ
has been isolated. or discovered, anu
as a consequence there is yet no
positive preventive, except the en-
forcemert of the rigid rules of san
itation aid the avoidance OF personal
contact
A close relation between the ln1iu-
enza pandemic and the constantly
increasing pneumonia mortality rate
nrior 10 the fall of 1918 is recognized
by the health service. 1t is now be-
Heved that the disease was pretty
widely disseminated throughout the
country before it was recognizeh IN
