WHY MEN STRIKE, BY Samuel Crow
thcr. New York: Doubleday, PsSc g.
Company.
Men are not striking for high
or wages or shorter hours or for
any of the things that formerly
they struck for. Instead they are
striking against work-against a
foundation of society in which they
think that they have no stake"
says the author, widely-read
writer on industrial subjects. In
these days when one reads almost
daily of strikes hero and there in
all parts of the country, involving
thousands of workmcn in all lines
of endeayor, this is n timely book
certain to attract attention. A
rather exhaustive study is made of
modern conditions of life, with de-
scriptions of the unrest abroad in
the land, and certain reasons for
this unrest and dissatisfaction. I'm
like many authorities, this writer
offers "A remedy. His remedy is
thrift. He breaches that thrift
should be inculcated, sold Just like
merchandise, indeed, until every
body is capitalist, not merely
few. lie says that incorrect ways
and means have in the past militat-
cd against a proper understanding
of the value of thrift. The despisod
miser is but one result of this
faulty education. Charity, and the
necessity of charity, is another.
Bread beats Bolshevism," SAYS
Crowthcr and then Tho proceeds to
tell just how the average man
should be led to better his condi-
tion. There is much in this book
that leads to deep thinking. IT is
VOL worth tho attention OF all OF
us who realize that conditions are
not good. are changing, and may
even change for the worse unless
the greatest wisdom Is manifested
by our leaders.

How to Treat
SunStrOke
BY Brice Belden, M. D.

ny sunstrokc is meant sudden
X attack of illness from cx-
- posurc to the rays of the sun,
but the same condition may occur
in hot weather through exposure to
high temperature from an source.
Those who work hard in close
quarters, like stokers on steam
ships, arc especially likely to sue
cumb to the latter form of heat
stroke.
The patient may be stricken and
die in a few hours. In other cases
there are intense headache, dizzi-
ness, restlcSsneSs, nausea and very
hot skin. The temperature may
rise to 110 F. The pulse Is full, but
may be either slow or fast. The
breathing is labored. with signing
or rafting. The patient loses con-
seriousness, stupor increases, and
death occurs; or the fever may fall.
the patient regain consciousness,
and recovery ensue.
In heat prostration. on the other
hand, as distinguished from true
sunstrokc, or heatstroke, the sur
face of the body is cool. the pulse
is feeble, and there is general weak
ness. There may be slight faint
ness and nausea. Even in these
cases there may be complete loss
of consciousness and a rapidly fatal
termination. Prompt treatment
generally brings the prostration
cases around.
In sunstroko the temperature of
the body should be reduced as rap
idly as possible. The patient is
placed in a cold water bath. ice Is
added, the body is rubbed with
blocks of ice. and an ice cap is
applied to the head. This treat
ment Is continued until the tenn
perature falls to 100 H. II the tenn
perature rises again the treatment
rs repeated. II exhaustion mani
tests itself, stimulants are given.
In heat prostration stimulants
and friction are required (hot cof-
fec or aromatic spirits of ammonia).
Rub the extremities, place hot
water bottles to the feet. and cover
tho body with blankets II the
head is hot apply cold water to the
forehead.

Saving M0neyin the Home;
Little Tricks For Women
in Household Economics
Nv Iaffi finsr
BY Elizabeth Lattimer.

Changed living conditions have
brought changes In housecleaning
methods When houses were lesS
completely heated. and parts OF
them were closed during the cold
months. spring houseclesning was
necessary to get the closed rooms
ready for use during the warm
months, and fall housecleaning was
necessary to prepare the house for
winter. Nowadays. all the rooms In
most houses are used and kept clean
throughout the year. and upheaVals
in spring and fall are no longer
necessary. Moreover the increasing
use of removable rugs and SOM
OF the new cleaning devices make
Il much easier to take the dirt out
day by day or week by week. Not
ali housekeepers realize how much
the work of keeping things clean
can be lessened by choosing the right
things and handling them In the right
way. This Is not merely a matter
of labor.saving devices like vacuum
cleaners, but depends partly on how
the house is planned. what furnish
inKs and nnishings are used, and
how the work of caring for them Is
organized.

Daily Care
of Carpets.


For the daily care -of woolen or
cotton carpets and rugs, a carpet
sweeper IL very good, because II
takes up lint and coarse dirt with
out raising dust. For more thor
ough cleaning some other appliance
must be used, as the brushes OF the
carpet sweeper do not go deep
enough into the carpet to remove
fine dirt. A vacuum cleaner is eN-
ceIlent, but IL that Is not available,
effort should be made to find some
other thorough but comparatively
dustless process. Using dampen-
ed broom and scattering leftover
tea leaves. bits OF rumpled. damp
ened newspaper. or one OF the com
mercial sweeping preparations on
the carpet before sweeping, helps
TO prevent dust from flying. These
dampened materials must be used
with caution, however, or stains
will result. especially on delicately
colored carpets. Wiping a carpet
with a dampened cloth after sweep
ing removes more dust and freshens
the carpet.
Small rugs should be cleaned out
of doors. IL possible. preferably on
the dry grass or dry snow. They
should be placed right side down,
beaten with a fiat carpet beater,
swept. turned over, and swept
again. Hanging rugs over a line
while they are being cleaned, or
holding them by the corners and
shaking them, strains them badly;
