It has been suggested here oc casionally, during the past ten yr rs, that architects should have th- ir minds on landing roofs for , flying machines. Now Chicago, about to build a $15,000,000 post office, will ask Congress to ap p-ove a building, two city blocks long with a landing roof for the flying mail. Hhat would cut an, hour off the mail flight from Chicago to New York.

Free circulation of the blood is the outstanding essential for good health. It is true that cold bath ing is, in certain conditions, a val uable procedure, but abuse of this , powerful agency is certain to pro duce harm. Unless there is prompt reaction after cold applications to the surface of the body, there are few measures more dangerous. Cold contracts and capillaries and forces the blood elsewhere ' from the point of contact. If the < surface of the body be chilled for. 1 a considerable time, the blood is driven into the lungs or other in- ; ternal organs with great force, and ] stasis will result- Thousands of t ’ invisible bacteria find lodgement \ in the congested tissues, and mul- ; ; tiply rapidly—as in pneumonia, ar- ( thritis and even meningitis.

The subject of “winter bronchit- 1 is” will occur with the 'advent of cbid Weather. Many elderly people are afflicted with this distressing malady, and swallow barrels of cough mixtures which may or may not give tefnporary relief. Air your bedrooms daily, and close them at night- Aging people should not, sleep in cold air, neither should they be exposed to sudden changes of temperature.
