You can accident-proof your home witli very little effort. During summer months pay particular attention to the pool, patio and garden. Foi'bid use of portable electric appliances within 10 feet of the pool. Be aware of the danger spots in a pool's wiring. These include filter oump motor, filler, time clock, pool cleaning equipment, ectrically operated pool covers and heating equipment.

Don't al ow glass in the pool area. Use paper or plastic cups, plates and pitchers. Be sure your pool area is properly fenced. Dozens o( children die each year in backyard drownings. Don't let children swim when overtired, overheated or just after eating.

New York. 10019.) CONSUMERS QUESTION BOX Recently yuu gave advice about getting rid of termites in the foundation of a house but how do I get rid of them when they get into clothing like nylon? This terrible problem has ruined my underwear and the bugs have even gotten' into a dress. I haven't consider hiring a pest control expert because they seem so expensive. But what can I do? The first thing to do is to find out exactly what kind of bugs have infested your clothing. The termite, especially the most prevalent and destructive termite, does not attack fabrics unless they are made of such cellulose products as cotton, linen, rayon, etc.

But the termite does attack furniture, books, documents and things other than wood foundations and walls. You need local on-the-spot help to find out exactly what pests are in your home. Ask your county Extension Service agent for advice.

Leaving Paris in 1855, Healy eventually set; tied his family in a house on Wabash Ave. at Congress and Van Buren; and this home was latef destroyed in the great fire of 1971. Healy's career as an artist spanned a period of 60 years and during his long lifetime (1813-1893) he painted many of the most illustrious people in Europe and America. The long list includes: Abraham Lincoln, Generals Beauregard, Grant, Sherman, McClellan and Hooker, Pope Pius IX, Louisa May Alcott, Hawthorne, Longfellow, Chancellor Bis- Dipel, a natural bacterium product, kills caterpillars but is harmless to other living things. marck, Presidents Polk and Pierce and Charles Goodyear, who had his portrait painted on a sheet of rubber.

During the period of the Civil War, Healy continued to divide his time between Chicago and the many commissions which took him all over the country. However, in the late seventies he decided to return to Paris and it was not until 1892 that he came back to Chicago to live. It was during this year that Healy presented 71 of his paintings as a bequest to the Kankakee State Hospital. This unusual gift has been explained by the fact that a friend of Healy's, who served as president of the hospital's board, convinced the artist that the paintings would greatly help the insane. By 1971, only 23 out of the 71 paintings remained at-the hospital and these were in great need of restoration.

Arrangements were made to transfer the collection to the Illinois State Museum which had the paintings cleaned and restored. In addition to these paintings on loan from the State the exhibition at the Mitchell Museum also includes seven portraits from the collection of the Springfield Art Association. The entire exhibition has i)een aided by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council and il will be on display through June 20.
