A MATTER ,The Czar of all the Rus
OF TASTE sias, in looking over
his summer "camp," made the dis
covery that a privata bathroom had
been provided for each bedroom. Ac:
' cording to press dispatches, the Czar
at once gave vent to the opinion that
this was reckless extravagance, even
for royalty, and a:lded that, he and
his immediate family always snared
a single bathroom, and found it quite
sufficient, so he concluded that one
bathroom for every ten guests should
be sufficient.
It is interesting and enlightening to
have a standard in matters of this
kind set forth by one of the great rul
ers of the peoples of the earth, for
there has long been a pronounced dif
ference of opinion as to just how
many bathrooms were the proper
thing. Most American architects, in
bui:ding private homes for average
families, incorporate two bathrooms
in their plans; one for the family, and
one for the servants. When guests
arrive, the servants' bathroom is
usually burnished up and turned over

to know that over here one bathroom
to two guests is about as little as is
usually provided.
to the guests. As but few American
families entertain ten guest3 at once,
the standard appears to bs consider
ably above that of the Czar.

and the mansions of millionaires,
which closely resemble hotels, usual
ly run to a plentiful supply of bath
rooms. Perhaps a fair average would
be one to every two rooms. Thus in
this instance, too, the Russian stand
ard seems to be exceeded. Even in
days and places of exhibitions, when
hotels and houses are jammed with
guests and poor relations who com e
to visit, the ratio is considerably more
than one to ten. From this it must
be concluded that Americans are
needlessly extravagant.
Looking at the other side of the
case, this conclusion may be reversed.
People who have lived in the big East
ern cities, where many of the Czar's
former people migrate, have observed
that the average Russian Immigrant
is as densely ignorant of the purposes
of a bathtub as is a cow ignorant "of
the purposes of curling-irons. Russian
immigrants have been known to use
bathtubs as beds, or to find them con
venient to keep coal or potatoes in.
Many of them take a bath when they
arrive, because they are forced to,
and then they have their relatives
Eew their clothes upon them again, so
that there shall be no bother of bur
tons coming off or hooks coming un
done. Judging by their standards,
even one bathroom to ten quests is
extravagant.
It is to be hoped that the "Little
Father" and his opinion in regard tc
this matter will become widely adver
tised, among his own subjects, as well
as elsewhere. The Czar's standard
may be said to be conservative, but
it is better than not having any bath
rooms at all. The public expression
of a ratio of one "bathroom to ten
guests is a considerable advance for
Russia, and offers hope for the future.
Perhaps in time the Czar will see the
advisability of having one bathroom
for every five guests, and then sti'.l
further enlightenment will follow. In
the meantime it is nice for Americans
Be Particularly Watchful
of All You Eat During
the Summer -:-
By CARL L ALSBERG, Chief of the Bureau of.
Chemistry, United States Department of Agriculture
WHILE PEOPLE SHOULD BE CAREFUL ABOUT THE CONDITION
OF THE FOOD THEY EAT AT ALL SEASONS OF THE YEAR,
THEY SHOULD BE PARTICULARLY WATCHFUL DURING THE SUM
MER MONTHS. IN HOT WEATHER BACTERIA MULTIPLY FAR
MORE RAPIDLY THAN IN COLD WEATHER AND PRODUCE CHEM
ICAL CHANGES IN SOME FOODS WHICH GREATLY LESSEN THEIR
NUTRITIVE VALUE AND OFTEN MAKE THEM UNFIT FOR HUMAN
CONSUMPTION.
I r K .
Unfortunately there is no quick, absolute, simple, practical way of
determining the presence of hurtful bacilli in foods or of obtaining posi
tive evidence of the existence of ptomaines. The average family does
not have the delicate apparatus needed for these tests nor the skill to
detect these micro-organisms.
The housewife will find EYES AND NOSE THE SAFEST PRAC
TICAL DETECTIVES OF BAD FOOD IN HOT WEATHER. If
any article has any suspicion of an unusual odor or looks abnormal it
should be AVOIDED.. People eating in doubtful restaurants should be
PARTICULARLY CAREFUL ABOUT MEATS OR FISH COOKED
WITH A HIGHLY SPICED OR AROMATIC SAUCE, which might
disguise a bad taste or warning odor.
Only sweet smelling, clean food should be eaten. Spotted, green,
slimy or frothy raw meat or meat which is soft in spots also should be
regarded with suspicion. Taste, of course, is a supplementary test, but
, one to be used AFTER EYES, NOSE AND FINGERS. A mothei
before she allows her child to eat anything should EXAMINE IT
CAREFULLY IN A GOOD LIGHT, SMELL IT AND FINALLY
TASTE IT.
Those who go away for vacation should not get the idea that every
thing in a summer resort or strange city is necessarily pure and whole
some. The DANGER OF TYPHOID FEVER IN COUNTRY RE-
' SORTS IS VERY GREAT. Many of the cases of typhoid fever re
corded in the fall in cities where the water is pure had their, origin in
ygter or contaminated substances drunk or eaten at some summer resort
MORE LIGHT This week's issue of
ADMITTED The Courier sheds some
more light upon the recall movement
and that paper's warm and earnest
support of it. " The dy of election is
drawing near, and the edioor of The j
Courier knows that the fultility of the
spiteful attack upon the' county offi
cials wi'l soon be apparent to all, so
he hastens to "make hay while the
sun shines." Probably he had ad
vance information of the adop ion of
resolutions condemning Robert Schue
bel by one of the important locals of
the Equity society, anl probably
therein he saw the handwriting on the
wall.
"There is no better time than now
to play your part in helping Tile
Courier," says the ingenuous editor.
"You are either with The Courier 'or
against it. If you are with it, the
least we can expect of you is that you
secure at least one new subscription
for us." -
Sure. I-iow mat tne fight is about
over, and as the time is approaching
when The Courier will have no excuse
for being, hop in and get somebody to
subscribe for it. Why did the paper
take up the fight, if not to ride on
top of "the ripples that it was making,
and gain a'l the subscriptions it could
from the misguided few who were le I
astray by the misrepresentations of
the recallers, and who though; the pa
per was fighting for a principle? And
now that the ripples are subsiding,
and the future outlook is getting slim,
and pickings seem to be becoming
scarce and scanty; why, bunk some
body into subscribing to the thing, so
that the editor will have enough tu
live on until some other fuss is
start "1. . - " ;
Common decency for the "cause"
mig'it have led The Courier to invite
people to "help the recall by sub
scribing to The Courier." Other pa
pers have done that But. courtesy
has no place in The Courier. It knows
the cause is just about '.ost, and like
the rats tha,1". desert a sinking ship it
hastens to get out from under an:l
with as much of the loot as possible.
