Electric Dutch Ovensâ€"Glass Tops Many a lady with a house will rock along contentedly enou:h with a 1920 rug on the living rcoom floor, and she won‘t mind tso much if her curtains are early Herbert Hoover. But her kitchen, ah, that‘s something else againâ€"it must be as upâ€"toâ€"date as her crazy little new hat. Don‘t ask us whether we approve of such emphasis â€"we‘re just telling you. It must take a bit of doing for the manufacturers to keep up with all this interest in bigger and better kitchens. But they manage very nicely, thank you . . . maybe simply b:cause men, for some reason, are the ones who think up practically all the clever timeâ€" savers and modern improvements we gloat cver in modern kitchens.

The scene of these adveniurecs witn disaster is a "proving ground," comâ€" prising a large portion of the exhibit plat of 120,150 square feet in the Fair‘s Transportation Zone, contract for which has just been signed by David M. Good~â€" rich, Chairman of the Board of the company; S. B. Robertson, its president, and Grover A. Whalen, president of the Fair Corporation, in Mr. Whalen‘s office in the Fair‘s Administration Building. The object of the exhibition on the "proving gsrciund" is to afford dramatic testing of the antiâ€"skid and trustworthy character of the Goocdrich automsisile tires. Parts of the surface of the "proving ground" are to be sprinkled with water and other parts will have mechanicallyâ€"controlled "bumps," and visitors will be permitted to ride in the cars Gdriven over these manufactured hazards to note the manner in which they tires Unique "properties" were called into use during the signing of the contract. One of these was a bell of the size of those which railroad locomotives sound their crossings. This beil once surâ€" mcunted a tall pole jus, outside the original office of Dr. Benjamin Frankâ€" lin Goodrich, a Civil War surgeon and fcunder of the rubber industry in Akâ€" ron. With it, in the 70‘s Dr. Goodâ€" rich used to summon his workmen to their tasks in the early morning and at the end of their noonday lunch perâ€" icd. The bell was wrung in sentiment as the signatures were affixed 0 the conâ€" tract, which brouzht into use the secâ€" ond "prop." It was with the identical pen used for many years by Dr. Gocrich in his Akron office that the names were written to the document. The ink used was rubber ink, a waterproof fluid manufactured by the Goodrich Company.

The disâ€" is ocften fatal, taking the form of malignant carbuncles, ulcerations, enlargement of the spleen and general coliapse. It works fast. Sterilization in the home should not be depended upon {o make suspected brushes safe for shaving ‘use . The wisest course is to burn any Japanese brushes, and make sure that the new cne bought is made under human? labor conditions from reliable, diseaseâ€" free products. In other words, don‘t let Japan get under your skin or you‘ll be sorry. Conduct Business by Carrier Pigeons Stray Pigeon Shows Plan Whereby Pigeons are Used as Mail Carriers. Montreal, Feb. 14.â€"In these days of air mail, telegraph and radio, quite a stir was caused here when it came out that a firm of wholesale grocers in Malone, N.Y., was doing business by carrier pigeon.

Makinz friends with it, he finally capâ€" tured the pigeon, examined the band and found that the bird belonged to Dufort Brothers of Malone, 60 miles southwest of Montreal, just over the United States border. At their request Abbe Benoit put the piegon in a little box with holes punched in it and shipâ€" ped it home by Canadian National Exâ€" press. A letter from Malons to Quebec neâ€" vealed the fact that this pigeon, No. 20, was the offspring of two United States Army birds from Fort Monmouth, N.J.

Although the giant ;whistles can be headr five miles away, ; they are pitched so low that they ~cause no distress to the ears of pasâ€" sengers aboard the luxury liner. About 95 per cent. of the time, the pigeons return promptly, Mr. Dufort said, and the orders are assembled and ready for shipmnet much earlier than if the firm had to wait for the travellers to retiurn at night.
