Chicago, Oct. 24.-The problem Of
placing the hundreds Of Chicago sa-
looms on the dry basis is being solv-
ed in various and unique ways.
The Rev. George Kilby, general
manager Of the Chicago Christian In
dustrial league, is trying n way by
turning ''saloonist" himself and oper-
formerly figured in many newspaper
stories as a notorious resort" In adj

hoped to retain at least a part of the
former patronage Of the place. Mr..
Kilby is providing club features to
make It in fact the poor mans club"
with writing tables and free station

and reading tables.
from 10 cents to rs cents each a night
is being operated in connection with
the club rooms. In the basement
shower baths, wash bowls and facili-
ties for the patrons to do their OWL
laundry work are installed. A restau-
rant in connection completes the no.

tion's patronage.
Another former saloon has been
converted into a club house for chill
dren. The children call it the Red,
White and. Blue Club" and at times
more than one hundred children are
reading and playing where the former
patrons Of the saloon played cards
and discussed their stems.
The RED, White and Blues" were
first organized as q. part Of: the work
of he woman's committee, Council OF
National Defense, and since then has
been financed through the efforts OF
several women who have given 8
series of charity entertainments fol
the benefit Of the organization.
Some Of the functions oo the day

against the Catholic priest for whom

dislike.
The American officer summoned the

MILK STEAMERS COMPARED
Absorbent Cotton and Filter Cloth
More Effective Than Wire Gauze
or C~heesecloth.

prepared by tho United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Clean milk depends primarily on
sanitary methods of production, but
milk strainers as commonly used also
have a direct bearing on the quality
of commercial milk. Certain kinds of
strainers cause milk to appear clean,
but fail to remove all impurities. Of
all the milk filters in common use only
two-absorbent cotton and filter cloth
are reasonably efficient in actually
improving the commercial quality of
milk. Even these filters must be kept
clean and changed frequently to in
sure satisfactory results.
According to reports from about
forty thousand farmers wire gauze
strainers are in more general use than
any other kind, but studies with the
microscope show plainly that the
meshes are much too large to hold
back any but the very coarse impure
ties. One thickness of cheesecloth or
other cotton cloth is only slightly
more effective than a wire gauze
s~trainer. but when the cloth is folded
to about eight thicknesses its ability
to remove dirt in milk increases some
what. but is still inefficient as COM
pared to absorbent cotton or filter
cloth.
Filter cloth, a specially made cot
ton cloth, smooth on n side and
fuzzy on the other. was found rea-
sonably effective. This cloth can be
obtained from leading dairy supply
houses. The milk should be poured on
the fuzzy side, the fibers of which
stand up like the nap of a carpet, and
remove all but a small percentage of
the solid impurities. The most effec-
tive strainer of all, however, accord
ing to the experiments. was a layer of
absorbent cotton placed between two
thicknesses of ~cheesecloth.
At best s%training milk is a practice
that makes milk appear clean and
therefore more easily salable, but no
strainer emoves either the bacteria
and Objectionable flavors or the very
fine dirt. AS a consequence straining
milk fails to improve its wholesome
ness to any noticeable degree. Clean
milk is best obtained by sanitary
methods which prevent. so far as pos
sible, the entrance of dirt into the
milk. This can be done best by hav-
ing clean cows in a clean stable and
milking with clean hands into ster-
ilized small-top pals.

BEAUTIFYlNG THAT BARE SPOT
Ferns Particularly Adapted for Growth
in Garden Spaces That Seem
So Uninviting.

There is perhaps no plant grown
which appeals to the refined taste of
the gardener and lover of plant life
as the fern-with its wonderful grace
of form and variety of color shading.
Few people realize what charming
effects can be obtained at a very small
cost with the aid of native wood
ferns. We admire hem when they are
seen in their native cool and shaded
haunts, but we do not realize they can
easily be transplanted and will quickly
contribute to the beauty of our lawns
and gardens.
Ferns may be found in the woods
of almost every state in the Union.
Around every house, whether in city
or village, there are shady spots where
grass and flowers will not grow. We
look at these bare and u%ninviting
places int wish something could be
done to make them attractive. Take
a day off, go to the woods, and with
a trowel dig up some ferns, secure as
many varieties as possible, plant them
in the prepared bed, the larger varie-
ties at the back, the more delicate in
front.
1t does not require so many for a
start, as they multiply rapidly. Keep
them moist until thoroughly estab-
lished. Late in the fall cover with
leaves. In the spring do not remove
these leaves from the bed, as they
help to hold the moisture. Enrich the
soil and give the ferns more of their
native conditions. Thus the former
u~nsightly spots will have become
places of joy and beauty.-Thrift Mag

An Evil and Its Cure.

Interest in Kansas City's efforts to
rid itself of the billboard nuisance
will be keen in every city in the coun-
try where the citizens are awake to
the Importance of maintaining urban
and suburban districts in a condition
of tidiness and beauty. The absurdity
of spending great sums of money for
good highways and other public i'm
provements, and then allowing them to
be heavily discounted by the presence
of glazing and unsightly signs and pic
lures, is too well understood and too
obvious to call for detailed argument.
1t appears that what is chiefly needed
In order to gain relief from the agrees
sive billboard. in any city in the
United States, is definite and rigorous
local action. st. Louis has met with
success in this direction, now Kansas
City is following in its footsteps, and
many other centers might wisely fall
into line.-Chrlstian Science Monitor.

HURRY Is ALL APPRECIATION
Safe to Wager Money That Not One
Driver in One Hundred Has Any
Business to Worry About.

Not n person in n hundred is in
as big a hurry as he thinks he is when
he gets into an automobile. The
chances are 100 to l hat he hasn't any
business worth bothering his head
about, and very probably no head to
bother with-speaking of the fellow
whom you meet every day tearing
along the road at breakneck speed and
making a whole lot of noise and throw
ing over into the fields all the pike
that the commissioners have spent the
last year in hauling upon the road.
Manufacturers vie with one another
in making smooth-running motors
quiet. i~noffensive cars are the only
kind that can be sold, says Wilmington
Journal-Republican. But at that you
a find many purchasers turning their
attention first to arranging a cut-out
for the muff1er and making the but
ton handy to n or both heels. and
then practicing riding with both feet
on it, so that nobody can make more
noise than they! Such driving is an
insult to the manufacturer of the car
and an outrage to the public that has
a right to be free from such annoy
ances.

LENGTHEN LIFE OF AIR BAGS
Clamp Screw Should Be frightened
Until Exact Size of Tire Is OBJ
tained-Other Hints.

The life of an air bag can be greatly
heightened by observing the following
rules:
When the tire is placed in he mold
the clamp screw should be frightened
until the exact size OF the tire is OBJ
tanned, and hen given about one-half
turn. This slightly decreases the size
of the cavity and relieves the STRAIN
on the air bag, in addition to giving
perfect results in the cure.
Never allow the bag to became fiat,
as this will cause cracks in the lining.
Inject a little warm water into the
bag each week in order to keep the
inside of the bag moist.
Don't pull the bag out by the tube.
Use the tape.

viously more of the cylinder wall is
exposed to the heat of the lame and
consequently the general temperature

Very often when a car is driven up

Most Common Cause.
OF all the causes of ~overheating I'M
doubtedly carbon deposits in the CYL

matter of fact, carbon deposits
~overheating simply because they cause

an obvious loss of power, it is a safe

is to nave the carbon scraped or other

1t is n little difficult TO sum up the
styles in suits when they are in the
experimental stage. Some of the new
features In them may prove short
lived and therefore not develop into
fashions, but 1t is evident now that we
are to have n choice of two silhouettes
this fall. The matter of cloths is also
settled and these range through sew
eral weaves, beginning with home
spuns and serviceable tweeds and pro-
crossing to velourS, duvetyn and lib
cline cloths. Besides many similar
weaves with a suede or velvet finish,
of the same character as duvetyn, are
dominant in the handSOmer suits.
Skirts have not been shortened in
the face of the precedent set by Paris.
For street wear they remain ankle
length and are generally plain. The
coats the thing. Designers have de
veloped it, with many clever varia-
tons, along the straight lines with
which we are familiar, and along Co
Diet lines with full rippled basque worn
over either a full skirt or n plain, fit
ted one. These straight-line coats are
longer than those of last season, and
are belted. On the formal suits fur and
silk embroidery provide rich decOra-
tons.

DAIRY NOTES
'ilo; the cows will pay

Build your silo; the cows will pay
for it.
A change of pasture is good for both
cows and pasture.
Cream should be cooled Immediately
after it is separated.
. u
Best returns from the average dairy
cows come between the age Of 8 and 8
years.
Do not forget that the separator
parts should be washed and sterillzed
after each use.
A dose of EPSON salts sometimes
will cure a case of blood in the cow'E
milk. 1t depends on the cause.
