The Value OF Open Fires.

We grant, as has recently been sad, that
an open fire is incompetent ID heat our
houses" but We believe II can be made an
important factor In the culture of children
that we have no hesitation in urging others
10 try 1t. In houses that are wholly warmel
by furnace, the family circle is likely to be-
come impaired. The children take their
friends TO their own rooms, aud the mother
rarely becomes Intimately acquain ted with
their associates. Around wood fire all
naturally come together; what interests one,
comes In little while to interest ALL ani the
children learn TO be open AMI free. The IRE
warns the heart as well as the body. A
wood fire lit early in the evening when the
children are home from school is all that is
necessary. When the boys get used to c Bm-
ing in from the cold and snow To find q
cheerful h ckory fire blazing On the paTlor
furnished for them TO use, they will
not want TO leave IL for any oIt-
side attractions; The moment the famili ar
whistle is heard in The evening, let some
kIndling wood be thrust under the logs. The
pleasant sensation produced by blazing
Ire, II repeated every day, winter after win
boy Is life ltne, and will never be forgotten.
IL Is difficult TO overesLimate the value of
this central gathering place for the whole
family. Wood fires are not dusty, and when
used not for heat, but for cheer, and only in
the evening, are hot costly. The moderate
heat OF furnace or stove is sufficient for the
parlor by day, and but little wood in the Ire
place Is necessary to make IL comfortable at
night. Indeed, the register often has to be
turned Off and the doors have TO be closed TO
Keep the heat of the house from rushing into
the parlor. The wood fire veatilates, and
thus, not only are the feet kept warm, bat
the head remains cool. Half u cord of
hickory wood lasts Us about a month, and
we use 1t on Sundays after church, and on
other days IL We have friends al dinner,
or the children are TO be at home. In spring
and fall an open fireplace is particularly
useful. Every one knows how the furnace is
dlsliked In moderate weather, but by using
at such times the wood alone, the desired
heat is obtained and far more than the cost
saved in the coal that would he burned 10
waste. If tie fire place is painted black,
there Will be cool background for the red
flame, and the br.ck-wOrk VIII not he made
10 look shabby by the smoke. Let il BE- "A
good hearty blazing fire or none at all. Bet
Ter 10 save in fine furniture, or In rich des-
serts, than put on logs sparingly. Brass and
irons are the best, for they never wear out,
and the labor IN keeping them bright Is much
exaggerated. The wood should reach clear
over both andirons A lot of corn-cobs will
make e hot. quick blaze. just before the chill
dren go up 10 bed, and will make their slum-
