THE BREATH OF LIFE


ooh, Mother! | can breathe through
my NOSE!" The room was still full
Of ether fumes and the small beds
that filled the clinic ward each held a
tossing little form reviving after the
operation of the morning. Billy was
the first to waken and as he looked
wonderingly at his mother bending
anxiously over him he greeted her
happily with the words, II can breathe
through my nose"
You have many times had cold
in your head and for a night or two
you have had to breathe through
your mouth. You have tossed rest
lessly all night and by morning, with
your throat burning and dry tongue,
you have decided that this is cruel
hard world, if you cannot breathe
through your nose. Now multiply
that experience by the sfour-six-eight
or-ten years that you have watched
your boy always with his mouth hang
ing open to get breath because his
nose is SO filled with adenoids that
he cannot get air to pass, and you
will then begin to sympathize instead
Of scold. You have thought he was
stubborn. His great, big father has
beaten his small body because he
kept his mouth open, giving him that
imbecile expression. You have nagged
and made life miserable for him, but
you were the one to blame. You
should have stood the punishment for
refusing to allow the child to be op-
Grated upon. You say that "the ton
sils were put there for purpose"
Yes, but they were not put there in
the diseased form that they have now
reached any more than an liberated
tooth was ever put into the mouth
fully developed. Possibly someone
has told you that the child will "out-

shrink when he gets older and after
the damage has been done-after
they have prevented the development
OF his nose and face as it would have
formed had he been able to get the
air through to stimulate It's growth,
and his stunted body will never reach
full size because it has been deprived
Of the air that the blood should carry
freely to all the tissues.
Have you never seen a sstunted body
shoot up tall and strong within q few
months after the nose and throat have
been cleared of distractions? The
nose is the proper breathing channel.
t moistens and warns the air before
/ gets into the lungs, and only
through that channel can the breath
# life be normally supplied.

inclined to believe that he had been
hasty in his judgment.
He was undoubtedly an asset, for
the entire party hung on his words
and relied upon him to see that they
missed nothing Of interest. Mr.. Stott
vas indebted to him for an experience
which relegated the Florida hoot-owl
too the background, though the thrill
of the adventure was so intermingled
with anguish that 1t was impossible
to tell where one left off and the 9th
er began.
! Sliding down the snow-covered side
Of mountain in frying-pan was
fraught with all the sensations Hicks
had described and some he had omit
ted
When they had reached the partic-
ular spot which he had recommended
for the sport, in lieu of a frying-pan
Hicks gave Mr.. Stott well-worn
gold-pan that he had found some
where. Starting at the top with the
party as spectators, Mr.. Stott shot
down the side like the proverbial bull
let, but midway his whoops Of ecstasy
changed to cries of acute distress, ow-
ing to the fact that the friction wore
hole through the pan to the size of
a dollar, and Mr. Stott, unable to stop
his unique toboggan or endure the
torture longer, turned over and fin
ished the trip on his stomach.
Mr.. Stott's eyes often rested upon
Hicks afterward with questioning
look in them, but the cooks solicitude
had been so genuine that cynical as
his legal training had made him, he
was obliged to think that it was pure
ly an accident which might not hap
pen one time In million.

An Economical Design for the
Pioneering Home Builder

In the suburbs Of all large cities,
1t is interesting to note the great
tracts Of farm lands which are be-
ing subdivided by enterprising real
tors. Many of the lots are being
purchased by young married people
from factory and railroad districts.
Often In their desire to escape high
rents and to live in the fresh air Of
the open country, they camp out in
tents or small temporary buildings
and build their own homes a little
at time. 1t Is a common sight to
see half house sticking up in hui
morous fashion, this being all that
the home builder can manage to
take care Of at the time. Each
weekend sees little more added to
the home. This is home building in
the truest sense Of the term. Each
Of these "half houses is monu-
ment Of hope and testimony to
the sturdy American pioneer spirit
that will not be defeated by high
reHIS, HlBH PRICES VI ldDOT, anu our
present inflated economic condition.
Here is plan that is well suited
to the needs Of such. The right
hand side Of the plan will form
comfortable home to start with and
is. so designed that it forms a COM
plete unit to which the living room
and second bedroom can be added
later. In place of the partition be-
tween stairs and living room, tenn
porary wall would be built and
removed later on when the growing
family and additional savings make
1t possible to complete the house.
The young couple will find that the
small dining room, kitchen, bedroom

SECOND FLOOR plAn

and bath will take care of all their
needs and they can look forward to
the delights of the fine living room
and big bedroom which will be
added later.
The walls of the Morningside were
designed for concrete block construc-
ton, covered with portland cement
stucco. Concrete block are easily
laid, even by unskilled labor, and
the cost of the stucco finish, even If
put on by skilled men, is not ex-
cessive and will soon pay for itself
in the saving found by omission Of
annual painters bills.
Although concrete block should be
laid in portland cement mortar to
get best results, it will be advisable
to lay up the temporary wall Of the
stairs in lime mortar If the house
is built in two sections. These
block can then be easily taken down
without damage and reused in the
final, permanent walls of the living
room. The plan can be further ex-
tended for large family by build
ing an IL" at the rear opposite the
kitchen entrance This would allow
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1924-05-23

for one or two more rooms on the
ground floor and corresponding bed
rooms above. The flreproof nature Of
concrete block would make 1t pos
sible to build a garage safely in this
position with sleeping porch or bed
rooms over, If desired.
Slipping roofs are often objected
to because Of their heat In summer
and added fuel consumption in win
ter. This can be overcome by the
use Of modern insulating materials
(such as daxlinum or celotex)
which are being found very effective
In insulating roof construction
against extremes of temperature.
The use of these insulating ma
terials enables the home builder to
take advantage Of the great econ
omy of the gambrel type Of roof, SO
common In Dutch Colonial designs
and in the Cape God farmhouse, as
the roof serves the double purpose
Of roof and wall, while the sturdy
masonry of the concrete block ends
keeps the building rigid and firm
against the bufeting Of eQuinochal
gales.

Don't comet" and went on scream
ing. When he reached the pond he
stopped short and stood there, and old
Mr.. Penrose joined him an instant
later
Mr.. Appel, alternately limping and
hopping yet covered ground with sur
prising agility, reached the others
ahead of Mr.. Budlong, who, stagger-
ing with exhaustion, huge drops on
his pallid face, and wheeling like an
old ACCORDION, all but tainted when
he saw the wife of his bosom.
Mrs. Budlong, looking like corn
fed Aphrodite, stood in the middle of
the pool, with her fat white back,
wet and glistening, 1ecked with brown
particles that resembled decayed veg
citation.
Whats the matter, Honey Dump
linz" cried Mr.. Budlong shocked and
bewildered.
II know!" piped up Mr.. Appel.
"She's covered with leaches-blood-
suckers-and can't get 'em off. ! got
'em once swimmin' in stagnant wa
ter"
When he spoke he called attention
of Mr. Stott and old Mr.. Penrose In.
stead of being grateful for the infor-
nation, and for the assistance the
others had expected to render, Mr.
Budlong turned upon them all furi-
ously:
| Get out of here, you Peeping Toms!
Haven't you any shame about you?"
He raised the scissors so threaten
ingly that as soon as they recovered
fro mtheir establishment, they retreat
ed, but, at that, their haste was not
sufficient to appease an outraged hus-
band. Mr.. Budlong picked up a peb-
BILE and threw 1t with such sure aim
that it bounced between Mr. Stott's
shoulder-blades.
When he picked off the blood-suck-
ers that were battening ON Mrs. Bud
long, the two returned to camp and
lost no time in serving notice on Wal
lie that they were leaving by the first
passing conveyance If they had to
buy it.
Whether or not Mr.. Hicks had
known of the leeches was a matter
for much discussion, and opinion was
about equally divided as to his limo
cence. He disclaimed all knowledge
Of them, however, and went about
with the air of one cruelty maligned.
His martyr-like pose was not con-
vincing to Wallie, who could not rid
himself of the suspicion that the Incl
dent had been planned, though Pin

Hicks was deep" enough to think of

Washing out curtains, both sash
and long, always seems a formidable
undertaking and so it is, if all such
curtains are done at once. IT, how
ever, the sash curtains, for example,
of each room are washed out when
that room is cleaned, it makes the
process easier. Fill large-sized
enameledware dishpan with very hot
water; dissolve any favorite soap
preparation in it, add the curtains and
soak over night. Next day they will
wash out without trouble and can be
pressed while still damp. Long cur
tains can be washed in the same way,
a pair at a time, and the wise house
wife will have frame on which to
stretch them.
In washing windows small enam-
eledware hand-basin to hold hot soap
suds will be found very useful. To
get the gloss as bright as possible the
soap suds should be used hot. 1t is
therefore better to mix them in
small receptacle like hand basin
than to put them into an ordinary
sized pail.

that the state action cannot alone
be depended upon to remove the evil

cooperating, can quickly control it.

promoted to the ranks of foreman
last week.
"Corney" Price, for many years
an upper cutter, was placed in
charge of the Gum Cutting Depart
ment. His experience as noncom-

department for six or eight months
was placed in charge of the molding
and trimming departments to release
Jos Fox, who has been placed in
charge of the greatly expanded cor

Forest Fire In Back of Factory

Monday afternoon about four
o'clock observers in New Hope re-
ported to the office that forest
fire was about to begin raging
through the woods which cover the
hill in back of the factory. Mr..
w. f. Crowley and X. B. White
armed with broom and a shovel
promptly rushed to the scene of the
confagration. After summoning the
help of the Receiving Department
crew, they set to work and by
the time the fire engines arrived
the fire was well under control and
was shortly extinguished.
Firemen are always prone to be
scornful of brush fires, so they left
before the job was quite complete.
Charlie Price in returning to his
home right across the street, later
in the evening, discovered showers
of sparks shooting up from an old
stump and it was only after he
had filled it full of dirt that all
danger from leaves had been elm
mated.
