T1IK OLDEST INHABITANT.
THE oldest man In tho United
States, according to tho census
bureau, Is Chorokeo Dill of
Grand Junction, Colo. Ho Is said
to bo 114 years of ngo and nn In
dian negro. Mo linn accumulated a
fortune slnco ho passed tho 99 mark,
having Btruck It rich at Crlpplo
Crook some fifteen years ago.
So far as Is known Chorokeo Dill
has not formulated n health codo or
told tho reporters how ho managed
to llvo a hundred and fourteen ycarB.
Ho isn't advocating a vorltablo dlot
or ton nillo sprints beforo breakfast.
Perhaps he hasn't accomplished as
much for tho good of humanity in
genoral in his long llfo-timo no somo
moro strenuous Individuals havo in
a shorter period of existence.
Dut whatever he has or hasn't
dono ho has dolled ttmo In a way
that makes him a fit subject for
scientific study. Somo entorprislng
theorist might compllo a whole volume-
of health rules from tho habits
and observations of Chorokeo Dill.
Dut In tho moantimo It Is probable
that a great deal would havo to bo
left to Individual discretion and
common sonso, Just as it was In tho
case of tho veteran westerner. A
couroo of tho training that mado a
"heap 'old man" of Chorokeo Dill
might provo ironically fatal to tho
health nnd longovlty' of tho nvorago
mortal.

Why Do We Push
Vacuum Cleaners When They
r C T 1.1.I - T7f . ,
consume oo jLitue ciectricih
The modern, dust less, or
derly nielliod of (.'loaning
usually demands no more
electric current than is
i'eiuii'od to keep two in
candescent lamps burning
the same period of time.
This iacl may surprise
those not familiar with
the subject.
As the cleaning is quickly
done, -the consumption of
electric current is bound
to be slight.
Why, under these circum
stances should our com
pany urge people to use
electric vacuum cleaners
as a means of having sani
tary, dustless homes?
riii .
xiic answer lies in (j
Knowledge mat tiie era o
electricity lias inst bec
The vacuum cleaner
only one of the early dctl
elopments which are g(J
ing to make electricity jJ
dispensable for doincstij
use nay as wen as night.
It is part of our btisinej
to tell people about ni
and profitable ways J
winze electricity.
Every vacuum clcand
helps us sell a little mon
electricity, but best of all
it demonstrates what
really useful and pracllA
able thing electricity isia
