A Cold BATH.-During the recent
severe cold snap various devices were re-
sorted to for the purpose of keeping bed
rooms and beds warm during sleeping
hours, some OF them being an excellent
substitute. fer the time being. for a
stove, while others were not quite SO
good. 1t is of the latter kind OF substi-
tutes for warmth that We have tale to
unfold. A miner, who was on the night
shift at the mine when the thermometer
marked Is degrees below zero, came
home, and after breakfast, ensconoed
himself between pair of cold sheets for
his usual sleep. His wife had tried the
hot fist-iron dodge to keep the bed warm
for him, but some how or other it did
not operate successfully, SO acting on the
advice of q neighbor, she procured a
large bottle, and after her husband had
dropped off to sleep, she filled the bottle
with boiling water, corked it up and
placed it the feet of her old man in the
bed. The boiling water made the bottle
pretty warm, and the feet OF hubby,
every time he touched the bottle, were
quickly withdrawn or else succeeded in
giving jerk to the bottle, so that after
a short interval the cork came out, and
the water flowed in a small stream over

while the water remained warm, but
when it commenced to cool and creep up
hubby's back and neck, it disturbed the
sleeping beauty, and after time of tor
ture, about half asleep, he awoke to the
full realization that he had been Sleep
ing in sheet of half ice. The honey
moon having expired some time some re-
marks of q varied character were INDUCED
in by the irate husband.

corner most of the time at railroad
speed. At that point there is no chance

before they turn corner, and very
slight chance 10 turn out of the way
The houses prevent the coasters from
seeing the teams, or the teamsters from
seeing the coasters. We have stood and
watched the progress of this business
for several days, expecting at any time
