Winds Great Effect
on Personal Comfort

Personal comfort at any time of the
year depends to an astonishing degree
On wind that is on the motion of the
air. An interesting experiment. de-
scribed by writer In the American
Magazine, illustrates the point.
To find out the different effects of
still air and of air In motion, a man
was shut up In telephone booth. The
booth contained an electric fan and It
also had tubes through which fresh
air could be supplied. The man had a
lighted cigarette.
With the electric fan going. and
with no fresh air coming In through
the tubes, the man was comfortable.
even after his cigarette had gone out
because of lack of oxygen to burn. But
when he was shut up In the booth
without the fan being turned ON, he
was soon In great discomfort, even
though he was being supplied with
fresh air through the tubes.

Cane and Beet Sugar

When highly refined no one can dis.
tlnguish between cane and beet sugar
as they are one and the same thing
between the crude or raw beet and
cane sugars there is a great differ.

the former is not, as 1t possesses a
very disagreeable odor and taste
Cane sugar molasses is good for Gull
nary purposes; beet sugar molasses
Is not. Cane juice contains glucose
put beet juice does not, though the

Aunt Emmy and exclaimed, Now
know all my financial worries ar,

What have you bought this timee
Aunt Emmy demanded suspiciously
We'll, haven't paid the money over

investment where my money will be
perfectly safe and will earn a nice
| income for me right away" Mrs
Norris said. I'm going to buy bonds,
good safe bonds. that will pay ME
fifteen per cent interest"
Wait a minute. you'll have to go

good safe bonds that pay fifteen per

They are safe,-the man said so
and this booklet says so tool"
DO you know what bond is!'
asked Aunt Emmy.
mo, but it's awfully safe. I'm sure
of that" Mrs. Norris said. Every
body knows that bonds are safe
My dear. some bonds are safe and
some are not. When you buy 4 bond
you simply lend your money to the
company putting out the bonds. Bond
issues are secured generally by the
company mortgaging or pledging
some OF Its property. In other words,
1t offers certain asset As security
that 1t will return your money to you
on the date the bond natures. It
agrees to pay you certain sum each
year for the use of your money, usu.
ally something between five and eight

pay too much for Its money-and ~
to fifteen per cent bonds-why II
would be very unusual for 4 company
to be able to earn enough 10 enable
1t to pay fifteen per cent for the
privilege OF using other peoples
money.-moreover, il it is good
enough to borrow money at all it can
borrow it more cheaply than that"
"Oh dear!r valid Mrs. Norris,
then a bond isn't a good safe invest
ment-"
Don't jump at conclusions SO fast!s |
said Aunt Emmy. 81 did not say that. !
A bond is as safe as church IL the |
company that issues 1t is financially
sound. has high credit rating and Is
making money. Before you buy bonds
assure yourself that the company be-
hind them is above reproaeh"
"But the man who told me, about
these fifteen per cent bonds was SO
earnest felt sure l could believs
him."
Don't turn over any money to him
until you have. some advice on the
bonds from your bank" admonished
Aunt Emmy Then, If you find out
that the bonds are questionable you
will escape another bad investment"

Great Value Euen in
Moments of Leisure

Farm women have recognized that
well-earned and well-used leisure is
the oil which makes the necessary du-
ties of life be performed happily. Carl
Sandburg has said. Life is a combi
nation of biscuits and hyacinths.. and
the farm woman is learning TO realize
the value of the hyacinths as she has
long since realized the value of the
biscuits, writer in the Country Gen
tieman asserts. She is changing her
objective from shining pots and pans
to shining joyous faces. and she and
her family alike are proiting by the
change In accent.
Not all farm women are realizing
the value of leisure, and but few farm
women as yet have leisure in needed
measure; nor are all who have won 1t
using 1t effectively. But good be-
ginning has been made and the future
Is full of hope.
These times Of leisure are literally
moments only for some women. l
know one mother of FIVE young chill
dren who can't And 15-minute periods
for recreating mind and soul. She
says she can find leisure only for
moment here and there. To be sure.
she looks ahead to the time when she
can lessen the personal service to the
little folks, but now practically every
moment demands her attention, and so
her leisure, like rosary, is counted
bead upon bead.
