-. ’A .â€" T i Woman’s Realm MAKE PARLOR IN OLD- FASHIONED HOME SERVE A PURPOSE. If you have never tried using the largest, pleasantest room in the house for the family bedroom, you don't know how much more you will enjoy it in that capacity, than as a parlor. used only occasionally. I live in one of those old-fashioned houses in which a parlor was added to an already larger number of rooms than is needed by the average family. This company room was the largest room in the house, and so pleasant, airy and sunny with its south and West indows and sash door opening to the east upon the end of a south ver- at two years of age may be five times as high as it is among those who postâ€" pone the disease until the tenth year Measles is spread by the secretions of the nose and throat, especially in the tiny droplets sprayed out in cough- ing, sneezing and loud talking. The danger of catching the disease is greatest during the period from five days before the rash appears and for five days thereafter. Before the rash appears the child may seem to have only a cold, but in reality this cold may be the beginning of measles. From thh time of exposure, from ten days to two weeks elapses before the child is taken ill. The illness in lthe milk and egg yolk. death rate of children having measles of life. ’ andah. So delightfully situated it was a shame to use it so little. Such an abundance of sunshine went to waste in it and the finest view we had was from its seldom-used windows. I tried using it as a living«room, but it was too remote from the kitchen and diningâ€"room, and an air of made- to- be used- only- on- state- occasions clrung to it so persistently that the man invariably stopped in the “mid- dle” room to lounge and read, leaving my cherished living-room to the isola- tion that the habits of years had ban- ished it. I reflected one day what an attrac- tive bed-room it would make, and how convenient the smaller room opening from it would be as a nursery. The idea so captivated me that I promptly planned to rearrange it for that pur- pose and soon had my erstwhile use- less parlor fitted up as a bedroom and private sitting-room. I A fair-sized bedroom opened from' the middle mom, which was also a large room, and both having a south exposure. I had a very wide doorway cut between the two rooms, nearly eliminatingthe partition, and so com- bined them into one delightfully long, sunny living-room. It was so enjoyL able to have the piano and books and all the most useful articles of fumi- ture out where we would use them every day.

The first symptoms are a rise in body tem- perature and redness of the eyes. Therefore, when a child has been ex- posed to measles, the temperature .should be taken on the eighth, ninth and tenth days after exposure. If the body temperature has risen or the eyes are reddened, put the child to bed and keep him there. Bed is the one safe place to fight measles, and the earlier in the disease the child is lput to bed, the less will be the danger lof death or a serious result, such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, eye or ear trouble. There is all the difference in the world between an attack of measles developing in a child exposed to body chill, and in a child safeâ€" guarded by warmth and rest. Measles requires good nursing and the care of a physician. The patient should be kept away from other peo- ple until the rash has quite gone, and should remain in bed as long as there is fever or a cough. Do not let the child be uncovered and chilled as this may lead to pneumonia. A somewhat darkened, comfortably warm room is the best and the air should be kept moist and soothing to the air passages by means of pans of water or by wet sheets, which may be hung across the doorway. MEASLES. The season for measles is during the winter and spring months. One- half of the deaths from measles in Canada occurred in the months of January, February and March. A great many of these deaths could have been prevented if parents had real- ized the danger and how to avoid it. The dangerous age for measles is early childhood. Sixty per cent. of the deaths from measles occur in chil- dren under five years of age. Some parents consider measles to be a nec- essary evil of childhood and that a child may be allowed to catch measles and have it “over and done with.” This is a great mistake. The older a child is when he con- tracts measles the better the chance FRUIT SALAD. Half pound English walnuts, half pound marshmallows, 2 cups diced pineapple, 2 cups canned white cher- ries.
