iQUKBEAMS are not noeessarily JO harbingers of a healthful indoor condition and good cheer, detelaras the Holland Institute of {Tbermolojjy of Holland. Michigan, and when the house-wife sees vivid W,reams of sunlight streaking across a room she can be assured [that the home air is too dusty for (ftealth, comfort and her own peace i*f mind. “ The Institute states that rays of •tight are not visible to the human ;aye except when the air is filled .with dust or moisture-droplets :*Fhich catch and refract the light iyays. • Obviously, says the Institute, 'If* 1 is virtually impossible to absolutely eliminate all dust from the air. On the other hand, it joints out, recently perfected home kir conditioning systems keep the ■borne practically fnw from dust. •Wiese systems, by means of a n air aireulator, -keep the home air in constant circulation drawing it through a filtering device and then
forcing it through^ a series of ftnej
washing sprays. The filtering washing, tests show, remove from 4 , the air Sfi.2 percent of the dust anti]
dirt that may be in it.
During winter the ai^conditioner keeps the home air adequately] moistened thus preventing the dryf ing out of fabrics and other furn-* ishings which, in homes heated with, old style systems, are the sources* of much lint and dust due to rapitjli deterioration in overheated super-,/ dry air. < Thus, the air conditioner makes: it unnecessary for the house-wife, to be incessantly busy with dusf-J mop and vacuum-cleaner. More im-^ portant, it practically rids the home '• air of germ-laden dust. In winter' the home is made more comfortable f and more healthful with washed/ and adequately humidified, clean* air, and in summer the air condi- jj tioner not only washes the air but,
cools it.

It is interesting to note that no road material has a. longer or more distinguished history lhan
asphalt.
It has been used for thousands of years. Reference to it is found in the time of Babylon, in a description of road construction methods during the reign of Nebuchadnezzar about 600 B. C. Around 1500 A. D. the Incas of Peru, whose civilization and knowledge has always been a source of wonder to historians, constructed a great highway system. some of which was paved with a composition resembling modern bituminous macadam. The first asphalt surface of modern tihie^ was laid in Paris in 1855. and Philadelphia followed hr about 1838. These uses took the

What Is Behind A Bottle of Milk In discussing some outstanding form problems, an authority on those subjects vivjdly described what is back of the bottle of milk the housewife finds on her doorsten each morning. Back of it are the broad green fields, the rolling hills, the shining homes and barns of the countryside. Back of it are plants employing thousands of men and women, ;uid express trains and trucks speeding (lie milk to the city so it may he delivered in perfect condition. Back of it is thel prosperity—or the failure—of whole communities, of banks, farms, manufacturing businesses.

DIET FOR ADULTS
/ _|OOD cut in; habits for an adult mean a minted diet of three metis a day 1 and no eating between meals. It is hardly uece*s»ry to add that food should be eaten slowly and not bolted. No two people are exactly alike and each person should avoid foods which experienpe has shown him do not suit
him, or as it is usually cmressed. “Hn .... ...
him, or as it is usually expressed, “do
not agree" with him.
Mental or nerve strain upsets digestion. If a person must carry his worries with him to his meals he should cat then only light foods and not anything that neeessitAtes hard work on the part of the digestive apparatus. He should egt this meal iery .slowly. The jsajne applies to 9 man who comes to the table tired out and exhausted. It is also advisable to take about one quart of milk a day. This may be used as a beverage or taken in ice-creams, cream soups, creamed vegetables, custards, etc. Of course, in addition to milk each indiridual should drink water freely each day. A glass of water on rising and one or two between meals < are advisable to supply the body with the fluids necessary for i^s upkeep. There is no objection to the moderate use of tea and coffee for adults, except that where they an# used there is leas tendency to drink milk. In regard to the method of cooking vegetables and meat, it is best to avoid fried foods as much as possible. The method of cooking does not teem to be as important as the fact that the food should be thoroughly
cqoked.
Fried foods give the in dividual more fat than is necessary and, further, some chemical change tikwa place in the fat during the process of frying, which tends to upset the stomachs of. people who have a delicate digestive apparatus. -
All of us should eat less of tbs staple refined articles of diet : e- g., meat, bread, potatoes and sugar in various combinations, and use more milk ana leafy vegetables. The most common available leafy regetablea am lettuce, celery, broccoli, cabbage, spinach, kale, Brussels sprouts, water cress, turnip tops, mustard greens, beet tope and dandelion leaves. Once a day' a Liberal /wnring H cooked gneens should be eaten, and at least once a day a ra Jr, green salad. These foods have the advantage, not Only of supplying necessary vitamines, bul they also help to correct constipation and encourage mastication, and gre bulky foqds which tend to assuage the pangs of hunger and
discourage overeating.
Fill up on the salad oaHy in the magL and there wiU be lege livelihood of eating too much of the other articke on the menu. IxieidentaUy, such a diet is cheaper than oee containing a lot of ma*4r-a not unim-
portant consideration.
