MANAGING FURNACES.

Eight Good Rules to Observe In Control
ling the Heat
The first thing to do is to get the
house thoroughly warmed. When it is
heated to the desired temperature, it
will require less coal to keep it warm
than if constantly cooling and heating.
There is more economy in filing the
firepot full of coal than in putting in
only a small amount, because that
burns away more readily.
Do not use a poker on the top Of the
fire. 1t is bad management in the use
of hard coal. The CRATE in the furnace
will remove the ashes and clinkcrs,
thus allowing free passage for air
through the fire.
In filing the furnace with coal the
smokepipe damper should be opened
and the ashpit door and slide closed,
otherwise the smoke and gas will be
forced out of the feed door.
When the rooms are heated. and there
is good fire in the furnace. shut it up
as close as possible.
In the morning open all drafts, put
in small quantity of coal, let it burn
thoroughly, then add fuel until full.
Let it burn for short time for the gas
to be consumed before closing the
hampers.
If the furnace heats quick and strong
from good draft, so that in warm
weather there is too much heat. don't
shake the CRATE, but allow it to clog
with ashes-not under, but ON top of
the CRATE. Ashes then lessen combus-
ton.
Never shut of all the registers at
once. If it is desired to shut the regis
tiers, close those on the upper floors, az
when the lower rooms and halls are
heated the air finds its way to upper
rooms.-Good Housekeeping.

Romeo Myster,ous Name.

time it was inviting the death penalty

ancient name is Rome, just as we pro-
