FIRE AT sCIO.
WAscoPuM.

% Sofo, Jan. 18th, 1875.
Editor Democrat;
AT one o'clock A. M, on the morning
of the Goth inst, this classic little burg
was aroused from its midnight slum-
bers and changed into scene of the
widest excitement.
DIR. Herndon, learned disciple of
Aesculapius, was on the point of retir-
ing to his virtuous couch when he was
suddenly alarmed by the cracking of
fire. He Immediately proceeded to
examine the cause and discovered that
the roof Of his residence was ia flames.
He sounded the alarm and soon the
discordant yells of the Scio Firemen
rent the midnight air and smote upon
the ears of the fast-assembling popu-
lace with a terrible distinctness. The
"H6oks'' were promptly on hand with
their truck, ladders, etc, and the COM
bat with the devouring element be-
gan. Ladders were mounted and
'hrimming buckets of water dashed
fearlessly upon the flames, and the
heads of men. Brigades of assorted
water-carriers swarned hither and
thither, bearing heavy burdens of the
liquid with which they were to quench
the burning thirst of the fire, and each
one trying to answer the oft-repeated
cry Of "waterI" Mighty was the dinl
Yet far above the roar of the flames
and other confused noises attendant,
could be heard single shrill soprano,
crying energetically "water, water,
for Gods sake water" These vehe-
ment calls came spontaneously from the
lips of our city druggist, who, perched
upon the topmost round Of d ladder,
thus did ample justice tohis reputation
as fireman. In the meantime the
fire hadspread to a considerable extent
but by the most strenuous efforts on
the part of the firemen and citizens it
was finally distinguished to the inn
mense satisfaction of all. Loss about
5000.

THE WEATtIER.-At last the weather has
moderated and our Webfoot friends are
able to get out of their holes and growl
about the bad weather. Well, we have
had bad weather for week or two and no
mistake. Last Sabbath morning the ther-
mometer stood at 10 degrees below zero,
which is colder than ever was known be-
fore in this valley. On that day the river
was running full of ice, but it did not en-
tirely close up until Tuesday morning,
when it was completely gorged with ice
and snow. During the forenoon three
men crossed on the ice at Pierce's ferry,
which is something that the "oldest inhab-
itant'' never saw or even heard Of before,
and it is probable 1t may not occur again
in life time. Tuesday morning "old

been having a warm rain, but as the late
large fall Of snow in the mountains has
been subjected to a very hard freeze no
fears are entertained Of there being food.

DRESS NEATLY AT HOME.

The duties of women are manifold
and often wearisome, and one who
willingly gathers them up and appro-
pirates them will always lind more
than she can possibly discharge. In
her own home she finds many, and
each day some new one is added, then
multiplied, and she finds no opportuni-
ty to subtract therefrom.
There is not one home duty that
housekeepers generally neglect so
much as their own personal appear
ance. The wife may keep their home
neat, clean, and orderly; the carefully
spread table with its weight of we'll
cooked food appears punctually three
times day, and all the household ar
rangements move as if by machinery,
but after noting these things let the
observer take look at the wife her.

her appearance Is not in accordance
with the neatness of her house es-
pecially during the morning hours.
She rises hurriedly, twists up her hair
in a careless knot, throws on an old
dress which at every turn discloses
ripped seam or rent; guiltlsss alike of

Dear woman, would neatly fitting,
tidy dress retard your progress any?
or would it take you any longer to don
a good dress than the one we have just
described? We do not mean costly
dress, covered with ruffies and puffs;
but one of as cheap material as you
wish or as your circumstances demand,
made carefully and fitted well, and
not cut out or sewed without any regard
as to how it will look, simply because
it is working dress. 1t will require
but a moment longer to pin on a collar
of some kind and tuck up your hair SO
that it will look passable, and you can
scarcely imagine how much you will
improve your appearance, or what a
relief it will be when you hear the
door bell to find yourself in readiness
to answer the summons without feel
ing that you are unfit to be seen even
by your best friend.
Nothing lends such charm to wo-
man as clean, well made and neatly
lifting raiment. Her clothing seems
% become part Of her, and each lends
IN additional grace to the other. Too
much attention is given to dress for
show, and not enough for what is to be
worn in the home circle.

A GOOD IDEA.

To take the school question entirely
out of politics the Eureka Sentinel sug-
gests an amendment to the Federal Con-
stitution forbidding the use of any part
of the public funds for any other than
the public schools of the State. This
is an excellent idea, and if practically
carried out it will end forever the
clamor which is just now being raised
about the division of the school fund
among the various religious denomina-
tons. There is in reality no danger of
such consummation, as the recent
election in New Jersey proves, where a
proposition to divide the school moneys
received only two thousand votes in
the whole State. The question is en-
tering largely into politics, however,
and is being used to advantage by
demagogues. 1t counted strongly
against Fitzgerald in the recent election
in California, and contributed largely
to his defeat as Superintendent of Pnb-
lie Instruction. To end forever the
agitation of the question, the Constitu-
ton ought to be amended as suggested
by the Sentinel. Nothing that could
be construed into sectarianism should
be taught in the public schools; that
matter properly belongs to parents
and guardians, not public school teach
ers, and to end forever the agitation of
the subject, the Constitution should
be amended as suggested
