Seasickness EASICKNESS comes on oceans, lakes and some rivers. Not every- one, however, who travels upon these bodies of water can acquire it, as it appears to come only to those who have a gift for it. It has one great merit not common to all gifts, as it may be acquired without previous practice. Those who are skillful do not have to be taught. Like inspiration and the wonderful one-hoss shay, it comes to them “all at once-and noth- ing first”. Various cures have been devised for seasickness. One of them is pub- licity. If you can keep on deck where you will be seen by all men and a few fishes who may be looking up at you, it is said to be a great help. The best cure, however, is carefully to remove the water from underneath the par- ticular vessel in which you happen to be passing away. If enough water can be removed, the seasickness will be teams anenee tse invariably cured. Seasickness is the only thing you get from the steamship company that you don’t pay for. A COOL ODORLESS KITCHEN In the summer months when the heat from the range and the odors from cooking food make the atmosphere of the kitchen almost unbearable, then Motor Boat Now! N° need to spend halt the summer vainly waiting, when we can ship an Elco Model te you at once. You'll enjoy an Eleo—its stream line design means beauty; the smooth, noiseless operation of its engine, and the safety of its electric self-starter means de- pendability and economy. An Elco Express always makes good—"serves you on the water 28 the automobile does on land.” Enjoy a real vacation in an Elco Motor Boat, When you step aboard you do so with confidence in your boat's ability to “get there.” Twenty-two years of experience are built into every 1914 Elco Model. Hull, engine and in- terior arrangement represent the highest development of the boat builders’ art. ELCO Expresses ELCO Cruisers ELCO Engines naw 00 178 Avenue A Bayonne, N.

PAT Ready-to-Run Electric Ventilating Set One of these little sets installed as shown in the illustration quickly draws the steam, odors and hot air from the range through the hood and discharges them out of doors. The fumes and hot air from the kitchen cannot escape to the other parts of the house, The kitchen is kept very nearly as cool as the surrounding atmosphere. In the winter months, when the doors and windows are closed, all steam is _re- moved, the walls and windows kept free from moisture, and the king odors pre- vented from entering adjoining rooms. All this may be accomplished at a small installation expense and with an operating cot about equal to an ordinary incandescent light. Write us, sending us full information and ask for Catalog RRL. B. F. STURTEVANT COMPANY HYDE PARK, BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, and all principal cities of the world Here's to La Follette HE papers have been making a great deal of the fact that Senator R. M. La Follette insisted upon having one of his speectes printed in full in the Congressional Record, at an expense of about twelve thousand dollars. Congressman Barnhart, of Indiana, says that if all the members of Congress should be given the same latitude, it would cost about six and a half millions of dollars a year to print the Record. Well, what of it? What are six and a half millions of dollars among friends? Besides, La Follette has for many years been known as one of our leading humorists. The fact that his humor is Gargantuan, and that each one of his jokes consumes from twenty to one hundred thousand words in type, need not detract from the necessity of having them placed before the American people, and certainly there is no more appropriate place for humor than in the Congressional Record, comicbooks fete}
