INFLUEN-CE ON CHILDREN.

Ae for moral influences in the home,

it is the words the child hears us s euk the things he sees uc do which

ture, such us respectful care und ten- der affection toward thc gralidmotller, the grttmlizlthcr, the aunt, the uncles. ollr attitude toward those in our cnl- ploy, ctc. Family festivals lvill make evcr glorious impressions on the child- is nlind, states a. student of human nature. , ,

Tho spirit of charity should per-

meate the llonle. The little child is too young to know how to help the less fortunate, -but he will imbibe the home spirit ami with his growing un- derstanding ndopt the ideals by which Ile is surrounded.

Aboue :ill other influences the lllost

telling is that which the llnrcnts cre-

each other. If peace reigns surpreme and father and lllotller live as one, lluving n. deop, true, earnest affection for each other, facing together the .Ioys and sorrows, and-supplementing each otller's strength nt every turn, there is no greater legacy parents can leave tlloir children than the influence and memory of such n home,

A COOL SPONGE PRECEDES

A COOL SLEEP

Of course, the ideal w-.ly to secure

enough coolness to make a good nlgllt's sleep possible, this tilno 01' y0!1i‘. is to have -all electric fan going in one's bed roonl. Nobody wllo has not been iulled to sleep by the .soothing breeze and gelltle hllnl of an clcctrlc fan ami then had to woo sleep vaillly ill n stuffy bed roonl quite fllnless und brcezeless. really appre- ciates just wh-:lt the comfort of such ll. fan is. :Small electric fans can be packed ill a trunk and attached to the electric light socket ill a snnlnler ho- tel or boarding house bcd roolll alld will infinitely enhance the colllfort oi such cramped sleeping qllnrters on warln nights. And ll little electric fsll of this sort uses only n trifling -amount of electric current.

I It the grateful fall ls ollt of ille

question tllcre is nnotller way to make tl snlull roonl more bearahle on a warln. breezeless night. Wring large hath towels, or even ordinary towels, ollt in cold wo-ter, leaving the towels rather wet. Then hang these towels ill the roolll near the window and the evaporation of moisture will consider- ably reduce the temperature of the rc-om. This is an expedient often re- sorted-to ill cases of illness wllere it is necessary to reduce the roonl tem- perature for a patient’s comfort., Tile telnpemture of the body may be re- duced nlso, and a more comfortable sleep assured by this same process of evaporation. Take u sponge bath just before retiring, using -a big sponge and plenty of cool water. Do not dry the skin ut all hilt slip on your nlghtgown and lie down on the smoothly drawn sheet of your bed. Tile heated air of the room will dry the -skin and pro- duce-evaporation, since the water of the sponge bath was considerably cold- er than the nir of the room. You will find yourself quite pleasantly cool and able to close your eyes In peace and sleep-for a few hours at any rule. Ev that time, if the heat seems intol- erable again, rise and repeat the cold sponge process -and the slight trouble will be worth wllilo- much more worth while than tossing, sleepless for hours, thinking of the lnsuffersble best.

SAVIING RED CLOVER SEED IS IMPORTANT THIS YEAR _-I

Tim fact that the secdmnn effected

Unfortullnt- ely for tllo country at large, lost yeor's seeding of red clover was not generally s. success, and the acreage now avail- able for seed production is not any- thing like sufficient. For this reason, and becnuse Csnsdinngrown red clov- er seed is the best that can be secur- ed for use at home and has a high reputation in countries to which it has been exported, every red clover grow- er whose second crop gives signs of yielding il ilullpiy of sound seed should
