HEALTH AND
HYGIENE
VENTILATE DON'T HIBERNATE
Cool weather is here. Cold weather
is coming. The advent of cold weather
always marks the rise in the pneumonia
death rate. It also marks a general
increase in the number of cases of the
contagious diseases Measles, scarlet
fever, diphtheria, colds, etc. Why?
Because from now on people begin to
close their doors and windows, and
stagnant air diseases get in their work.
When people are closely bound in, in
poorly ventilated rooms, the foul air
lowers our vitality, and this together
with close association, makes disease
transmission easy. What is the remedy 1
It is easy enough to locate the remedy.
The remedy is simp!. a continuation of
of the first-class ventilation we have
bioen havir.g out in the open air all
summer long. But how can we get it
in the winter ? In winter we have to
live in houses to be sure, but we don't
have to sacrifice all our fresh air, how
ever. Here are two valuable sugges
tions for increasing the fresh air in
our houses.
If stoves are used, a jacket or shiefcl
of galvanized iron or some other metal
hould surround the stove. An open
ing in the floor will admit air which
will pass up around the stove and out
at the top of the shield, tiius furnishing
a lot of warm, fresh air. This is better
than window ventilation, as the fresh
air is bested as it enters the room.
But if your room has no stove it
surely has windows, and if it has, here
is a still simpler method of getting
fresh air. On the bottom of the win
dow si!'., on the inside of the room,
place a. thin board six or eight Snches
wide and as long as the window is wide;
fasten this board up on edge o:i the
window sill, as near the inside ei the
vvirvtow jamb, and as far back from
the window itself as possible;; then
raise the window sis: or eight inches.
The .incoming cool air will strike against
the board and be defected upward and
no "'cold drafts" will be noticed. The
on'y objection to thiB method of getting
a little of the much needed fresh air
is that it shuts siT. some lig-ht. To
overcome this, get a piece of heavy
glass and use it m .place of this board
If desired, the glass or board nay be
placed with the top edge inclined
toward the inside f the room. This
works better than by having it set
straight up. At aiy event, d some
flling. fresh it at anj price, (even
if iou have to break a window or two.
CUTTING DOWN EXPENSES
Cold weather is .expensive at best,
Thank Fortune, health authorities are
cociing to the front with suggestions
on how to cut down expenses. Here
are two good ones that should appeal
Lfiot.on!y to the economists but to all
health lov'ng people. The first sug
gestion isDon't heat your house up to
72 to 7f degrees this winter. From 65
to 7'il degrees is far better, and it takes
less fuel. The second suggestion is,
Don't have dry heat in your house.
Besides cracking aul drawing; your
furniture apart, it is equally hard on
you. It cracks, parches and dries your
skin, and mucous membrane as well.
Dry heat causer lets of the sore lips,
chapped skin, and aggravates certain
catarrhal troubles. .The economy of
this suggestion is that properly moisten
ed air in winter makes a room at fio to
08 degrees feel as comfortable as a hot,
dry air at 70 to 72 degrees. Try it
once. Evaporate a gallon of water in
your living room every day. Better
still, get a cheap hygrometer and keep
the humidity at 50 per cent of satura
tion. If you don't csre to get such an
instrument, try raising a few flowers
in your living room. If your flowers
wither, dry up and die. take it from
the health authorities that such air is
not lit for you to live in.
The end result of these two items of
economy, it is claimed, is that it in
cteases the health far more than the
wealth of those people adopting the
suggestions.
Two Hundred Doctors Agree to Give
Their Bodies to Science
To aid in ebucating the public in the
necessity for more autopsies, 200 physi
cians of Brooklyn and Long Island have
voluntarily agreed to place their their
bodies after death at the disposal of
of sqience according to an article publi
shed in the Brooklyn Eagle.
This action was takenat a meeting of
the associated physicians of Long Island,
at which the question autopsies was
discussed. By allowing their bodies to
be dissected af tsr death the physicians
believe they will show the sublic in a
protical way that autopsies, to which
many have expressed opposition, are
really great aids to science. Especially
are autopsies valuable, so the yhysicians
believe, in studying diseases of mys
terious and obscure origin.
So intererestcd &re the physicians in
this matter that the meeting decided
to send out 500 circulrr letters to phy
scians in Brooklyn and Long Island
urging them to induce relatives of pa
tients who die from mysterious causes
to permit autopsies.
The only available air from dark till
sunrise is night air. Breathe it.

COOKING.
-
Great System Perfected by M.
Soyer, Famous London Chef.
NOT LIMITED TO THE OVEN.
Ey Martha McCulloch Williams.
Ali my lire I have beea a sort of
Jouittic pioneer, cutting cross lots
of tivdition ' r.tl usage, sometimes it
must be confessed, to my own Jobs,
and trouble, other times with the
happy result of finding out new and
easier ways. So after a month of .a-per-bug
cooking I asked myself if I s
had so'tuued its whole possibilities?
There was uo definite answer pos
sibleso I took counsel with myself.
.All about me I knew there were
folk, singly or in pairs, who liked hot
food, fresh, yet hated left-overs, who
had further great need 10 watch the
pennies. It seemed wasteful for
them either to heat a whole big oven
to cook a scrap of dinner, or cook an
ovenful rather than waste heat. Fur
ther, there were ovenle.-s folk those
with kitchenettes only, or portable
two riiijj stoves, put i:i commission
at need, then whisked out of sight.
Could paper has cooking be made use
ful to them? I was, going to find out
in their behalf, and no less my own.
So, upon a Saturday afternoon, I
set myself to see if I could solve the
problem without Bin against either
ease or economy.
Looking through my pot closet, I'
found a cast iron skillet, not over big,
nor small, and about three inches
deep. I found also a deepish round
iron pan just fitting the skillet-top.
Placing one upon the other there was
a space of almost five inches between
them, top and bottom, aving found
them I went out and bought a wire
trivet. I bought also an exact pound
of finely chopped meat fourteen
ounces lean veal, with two ounces of
suet. This I shaped into an oval flat
tish cake, salted and peppered it well
all over the outside, then floured it
liberally, and overlaid the top with
thinly sliced mild onion, thickly sliced
peeled tomatoes and sundry lumps of
well-floured butter. Next 1 put it in a
paper bag the biggest my skillet
would take, pinned in the corners of
the bag after sealing it, and laid it
on the trivet which had been set in
the skillet before it was put, covered,
over a gas ring on top the stove.
The skillet was sizzling hot so hot
that a smell of scotching came forth
in about four minutes. That was the
signal to turn down the heat more
than half. Because I want my veal
always as well done as possible, be
cause 1 knew the tomatoes would pre
vent any possible drying out, K left
my bag cooking forty-five m'nutes,
meantime getting ready' salad, fruit,
and setting my table.
I have in my time eaten much meat
and good meat, but never any better.
Therefore, know, all ye ovenless,
you can cook in paper bags thus by
help of a skillet and cover indeed,
of any sound iron vessel.
