Hundreds of Them in the Mountains { of Japan. { In the mountains of Japan are hun- | dreds of so-called "blowing caves," which blow hot in winter and cold in j summer. They are natural chimneys. A typical one of the sort is a hole (ordinarily (ordinarily of volcanic origin), with an opening low down on the mountainside, mountainside, and another opening that takes the form of a cavern far above. The air inside the "chimney" remains remains at about the same temperature all the year round. iBut seasonal variations variations of temperature outside (implying (implying variations of air density and pressure) pressure) cause an outflow of relatively warm air from the upper opening in winter and an outflow of cool air from the lower opening in summer. ^This outflow of cool air carries moisture moisture that rapidly evaporates on meeting meeting the warm air outside. The evaporation" evaporation" makes cold, so that ice is actually actually formed in the surrounding soil. In fact, the hotter the day, the greater greater the quantity of ice. The Japanese use the bottom" openings openings of these "chimneys" for hatching hatching silkworm eggs in hot weather-- the object in t view being to retard the hatching, which, iirithe warm season, might otherwise, be- too rapid. How. to <Eat for Health. Natural habits in eating develop natural tastes -arid instincts, and are conducive to the highest pleasure and erijoymenth_ The, ideas embodied in the following rules of diet are by no means new discoveries; they are as old as the hills: Eat natural foods. • Avoid excess of proteins, which include, include, beside meats, eggs and milk. Eat eggs sparingly, if at all . They are unwholesome for some people. Exercise-care in the use of cow's milk-- „Many persons suffer from ebroriic'milk poisoning, being, subjects of "casein dyspepsia." Buttermilk is perferable to ordinary milk. Avoid excess of animal fats. Nuts, especially- pine nuts, pecans and' almonds, almonds, are an excellent source offaf. Avoid poisons,. which include tea, I coffee, alcohol and tabacco. Avoid condiments--mustard, pepper, pepper, pepper sauce, cayenne, vinegar, pickles, all the irritating spices ancl condiments. These damage the stomach, stomach, liver and kidneys. Use salt sparingly. Many persons are benefited by discarding salt alta- gether. The^food naturally contains a sufficient arnount. v Eat simply, avoiding too many kinds of food at a meàl. ' Eat moderately : Never eat'to fullness fullness or satiety. ^ Eat food which is relished. Such food generates appetite juice, which is essential to good digestion. Use cane sugar sparingly, sweet fruits are better. - Secure two or three bowel movements movements daily by the abundant use of fruits, bran, fresh vegetables and other laxative foods (if necessary, use mineral oil). Eat some fresh, uncooked food daily, such as fresh or dried fruit, lettuce, heart of cabbage or fresh cucumbers (not pickles). Vary the diet from day to day, but avoid complicated meals and dishes. The meal hours should be regular. Two meals a day is the best, plan for brain workers. If three meals are eaten the principal meal should be taken at midday. Supper should be the lightest meal. Iced foods and drinks must be taken taken slowly. Take time to eat. Eat largely of dry foods ancl masticate thoroughly. Drink four to six pints' of- water daily. \ Rest half an hour after eating. Avoid sleeping and violent exercise immediately after meals. JL .uses Thé war has so increased the cost of living, the housewife must make her money go further.

I got some small screw eyes and fastened one on each end. of the lower shade stick, one on the top and one on the bottom on each side of the window casing. Then I fastened thin cord to the bottom eyelet," eyelet," ran it through the shade eyelet and fastened it to the top screw eye. If this is done on each side of the shade the window can be left wide open and the shade will stay where you want it. _ This does not interfere with the raising and lowering of the shade, and if the x cord is purchased the same color as the woodwork it will be unnoticeable.
