A hearing on the McNary- H Haugen
bill, which is designed to raise the
price of wheat so cents a bushel by
placing the export surplus in the
hands of government emergency
corporation, was held by the Denver
Civic and Commercial association last

of the Colorado Wheat Growers as
sociation, defined the bill as "an act

basis, Mr.. Lampson explained. He

Fans From Many Lands and Ages
ny MARY MARSHALL.

Fans seem to be either enormously
large or very small. decidedly eIab-
crate or most extremely simple.
There are tiny fans small enough to
be tucked into a small evening bag and
quite suggestive of the Directoire
and Empire periods in France, when
small folding fans seemed to be in
the hands of every woman who pre-
tended to be-or was-in fashion.
This Summer there has been a
large demand at shops where smart
women buy such accessories for fold
ing fans small enough to be tucked
into little bags. and charming have
been the little fans offered for sale.
These small fans have been spoken
of as matinee fans, the idea doubtless
being that for formal evening use
al the theater one could carry one
Of the large ostrich fans, whereas for
afternoon performances the smaller,
less conspicuous fans were chosen.
Undoubtedly France taught England
the use of the fan, and the fashion
of fans went TO France from Italy.
India and Persia and Egypt, Rome
and Greece have all contributed to
the lore of fanmaking. But the little
folding fan that was used so gen.
orally in the 18th century in France
and still is used here at the present
time was the product of Japanese in
genuity.
Another type of folding fan has
been much admired recently. The
sketch shows one of these with
mother r-of-pearl frame. covering of lace
and trimming of ostrich
The typical Spanish fan is of the
Japanese type of folding fan-only
It is much larger than the fan usu-
ally made or carried in Japan. While
the French coquette demanded a fan

painted by the hands of a clever
artist-such artists as Watteau and

other hand. often made as good use

The second fan in the sketch is dis

Breakfast Trays.

Only during the vacation days,
when the man of the house does not
have to keep Office hours, the chill
dren do not have to get off to school
and guests are having restful
| breathing spell, can the entire family
sleep as late as it wishes in the morn
ing. The luxury of waking natu-
| rally, rising when one feels like it
and ignoring the hands Of the clock is
appreciated by every one who has to
| live on schedule during the rest of
the year.
This freedom of the morning hours,
however, is apt to cause considerable
/ irregulartty in the matter of break
fast, and is the one drawback to the
scheme, in the opinion of the house
wife. She wants every one to have
a good breakfast, but it is impossible
to prepare the morning meal all over
again for each new arrival on the
scene. If one comes down at s, an
other wanders downstairs at $50 and
another at or 10, the average cook
spends her morning trying to keep
things hot.
One solution of this difficulty is an
individual breakfast tray for each
nSmOer OF the 1aHlIy ana edCn guest
These trays may be arranged the
night before, and in the morning
fresh flowers slipped into the bud
vases, cream and sugar added and
any special foods made available.
For example, bowls containing diff
ferent cereals may be placed on the
sideboard or in the buffers pantry
cold cereals, that is--ard each person
may help himself to the one he pre-
fers. Fruit is placed near at hand. in
plentiful variety, and the electric
toaster is connected. ready to be
turned on. a plate of slices of bread,
a pitcher of milk for cereal, a bowl of
butter pats in ice water and eggs
which may be boiled in an electric
saucepan all are ranged back of the
trays.
You will find that guests as well
as the family enjoy the freedom and
novelty of coming down at will. toast
ing the bread, boiling the egg and
pouring the coffee from a large per-
colator which has low alcohol fame
under it to keep it hot but not boil
ing. Then each person takes his tray
out on the veranda, perhaps, or out
under the trees-with a rustic table
on which to place it-and eats a
placid breakfast without feeling that
he is disturbing the household routine.

The Radio.
Copyright, 1924

Bob has a radio set. Because he
made great effort and actually
passed the midterm tests, the family
cIubbed together and bought him an
extraordinary one that has ears and
a voice that neither slumber nor
sleep. Nor, if Bob had his way,
would any one else. Which is this
story.
For the first day or so the house
was filled with agonizing howls and
shrieks and coughs and whistles.

turning another knob and bringing a
howl from the bowels of the earth.
Must be another powerful set in the

cut out the radio programs and
skipped from one to the other with
out the slightest consideration for
the performers. The bedtime story

proclaimed the redemption of the
world through the new psychology
was choked off in thrilling sentence

Septicemia.


Septicemia is the usual medical
term for the condition which is more
familiar to the layman as acute blood
poisoning. Many erratic notions, and
dangerous notions they are, still cling
to the idea of blood poisoning in the
lay mind, and these wrong notions
are maintained chiefly by the gossip
of ignorant people.
For example, there is no dye which
can possibly cause blood poisoning.
No case of blood poisoning has ever
been caused by rust of verdigris or
paint or stain or coloring matter or
rouge or cosmetic or hair dye or
course, true that chemical poisons
are sometimes present in hair dyes,
cosmetics and the like and persons
using such things are liable to
poisoning.
Septicemia, or acute blood poison
ing, is caused only by germs getting
into the blood. The germs RESPONSE
Bile in most cases of septicemia are
the common pus-producing types.
such IS the streptococci and staphy-
lococci, and these germs gain entrance
either directly through some trihing
wound of skin or mucous membrane
or from some septic focus where
they have already found a local foot
ing, as IN q Sdtnerlng IN the ear
or tonsiHtis or an liberated tooth"
The more striking cases of septi-
cemia occur in persons who have had
some trifiing blister, scratch, cut or
puncture of the skin which has not
received proper immediate surgical
care or first-aid treatment. The
deadly germs of septicemia are in
visible, but Ubiquitous, and no re-
specters of ordinary personal cleanli-
ness, SO that it is we'll to remember
that the danger of blood poisoning
