About Fires.

The Barton Nonitor has some very
sensible remarks and ad,ic about fires
THEN cause and prevention. from
which We quote:
beside the fires resulting from match
e.. sparks on the roof defective tiue>
and chimurN>. there Is always and
every " here great danger from tobacco
smokers. 1t is generally claimed that
tobacco the Is harmless, but uhScrNa-
ton, and common Sen>r teach that fine
Is fine. and 1t l. not safe to put it into
powder casks. or finder boxes AT any
time. Smokers carry matches and burn
from Si\ L" >iNtN every day. they throw

the last two Years, Il fire has been we'll

and we have known saw dust. bark,
rotten wood, clothing and other com
hm>tiblr materials t" hc set on fire 10y
the dr"ppin%s of Il pipe. Smokers are
almost invariably careless: they drop
matches, drop fire from cigars. grow
drowSy over their pipes aud let them
turn bottom side up; they put them
into their pockets with fire in them and
leave them where they can set other
things on fire; they carry them up aud
down the roads. all over houses. barns.

ton. There is no remedy for this evil.
and it may perhaps he as well to say no
more about it.
Ashes are IL fruitful source of danger,
and they are responsible for many of
the fires that happen mysteriously.
| Among all the necessary and unnecesSl-
ny dangers. the greatest caution ought
to he eXercisedhy all persons; and eau
ton ought to extend, not only toward
the prevention of fires, but toward ma
king provision for putting them out
when once started.
| Fire eXiinguiShers- those small, cheap
machines filled with carbonic acid gas
and water, now used in many places are
very valuable and will put out small
fires easily : but few persons have them
and the old water remedy must he re
lied on. Water is cheap; and if it

voir> can he made to store it up for use
in times of emergency. \ barrel of
water on the roof of Il foctory or beside
IL dwelling will contain water sufficient
to put out the fire that let alone will
burn the town. A pail of water ut
hand will stop Il contiagration. A cheap
prescription then is to have water ready
handy, where it can he used. Ladders
are necessary. st. Jolnsbury Centre

that could have been made for three
dollars; many houses get on fire near
the chimney from sparks, Il ladder and
water is the remedy.

take one O them yer splin-
iers: :" inquired frontiersman, pointing to
the box Of wooden toothpicks in South
Side restaurant the other day.

The man took one, and hacking oft a few
STEPS, using 1t the while industriously, soon
returned, and carefully depositing it from

toothpick box under the counter, with disgust
marked on every feature.
