The Fire.

About 10 o'clock Tuesday forenoon the alarm of fire was heraded over town, followed by the report that ..It Was nothing but d little slanty near A. Becker's residence" At first. not Il great deal of attention was paid to it. But m few moments the town was thoroughly alarmed, when it was learned that the fire. originating in the servants house at Becker's, had reacl- ed his stable, and was spreading rap idly. under d heavy wind. in the direct Ion of the residences of Dr. Stone and J. NJ. Nichels. The fire companies were slow to get out owing to the fact that there was no special alarm sound ed, and furtherm ore 1t was generally believed that the scene could not be reached with the hose. The great dan ger led the fire laddies to scheming. and they finally ombintd both reels of hose which barely reached the threat ened bulldinge. and were thus able to protect Dr Stones home. Gallant and heroic work by numerous citizens in raging to the ground outhouses, fercps. etc, saved the Allen and Nichols build ings, and the fire was soon under con troi.
 A Becker'S loss was a row of out houses consisting of two stables. two servants houses. cribs, etc.. about l5O bushels Of corn. 10 tons of hay, etc. valued at about 5000 No insurance except Slo0 on servants house. Mir. Becker's beautiful residence was sey. eral times on lire and was slightly dam aged.
 Dr. Stones loss is about $500 on outhouses consumed, fences demolished etc, and damage to household goods Had 1t not been for the water works Dr. stones handsome cottage would nave burned. In that event, owing tn the heavy wind from the southeast. r. .. Merwin's home and that of John Gating would have probably burned. and there is no telling where the flame. would have stopped.

Boston i- truly a philanihropic. charitable and progress i've centre. The people are not all rush. ing for the money goal, they remember poor fellow man. The aid given the working class can in no city ou the conti- nent be exeeIled, if equalled. Imposing buildings bearing conspicuous signs ''Tem porary Homes for Working Women.r Temporary Homes for Mechanics. .n Temporary Homes for Buys.' often met our gaze. At these homes the working classes who are ont of impIoyment can be comfortably quartered and aid is given in finding work for them.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and tends to personal enjoyment when rightly used. The many, who live bet ter than others and enjoy life more, with less expenditure, by more promptly adapting the worlds best products to the needs of physical being, will attest the value to health of the pure liquid laxative principles embraced in the remedy, Syrup of Figs.
 Its excellence is due to it; presenting in the form most acceptable and pleas ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly beneficial properties of perfect lax ative; effectually cleansing the system, dispelling colds, headaches and levers and permanently curing constipation. Ii has given satisfaction to millions and met with the approval of the medical profession, because 1t acts on the Kid. neys, Liver and Bowels without weak ening them and it is perfectly free from every objectionable substance.
 Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug gists in soc and S1 bottles, but it is man. ufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only, whose name is printed on every package, also the name, Syrup of Figs and being well informed, you will nos accept any substitute if ofesed.

Boston Baked Beans.

Any one can have nice baked beans if
he secures bean pot and follows these
directions; First, get your beans. The
large red kidney variety is largely used,
but the small white pea bean is more gen
orally popular.
One quart of beans IS sufficient, when
cooked for two meals for an average fsmi-
ly. They should be soaked in cold water
for an hour or so. Then salt and pepper
should be added, together with half tea
spoonful of mustard and half u teacspful
of molasses. The molasses gives the beans
a delicious flavor, and, at the same time,
it is not too pronounced, nor is it possible
to detect the molasses. When the beans
are in the pot, half or three-quarters of a
pound of salt pork, well stresked with
lean, should be placed on top, and then
enough warm water poured into the pot to
just cover the beans.
Beans should be baked in an oven of
even temperature for either day or night.
or, in other words, about twelve hours.
1t is better to bake them in the daytime,
for then they can receive more attention.
As the water gradually evaporates more
should be added, so that they will not be
so moist as to become mashed or broken.
The pot can remain in the oven, where
it will simply keep hot. tor an indefinite
time without injury Beans should be
served in a covered dish. Beans that have
been left over are delicious warmed up in
a stewpan with little water added, and
many bean epicures think the more times
they are warmed over the better they are.
In number of New England towns the
local baker bakes beans for half the town.
Saturday nights the pots are taken to the
bake shop, where the baker marks each one
with the initials of the owner and places
them in his big oven. Next morning the
owners call for them and pay the charge
of 10 cents, and invest 10 more in brown
bread. 1t is an amusing sight on Sunday
morning to see line of citizens going from
the bake-shop to their homes, each with a
bean pot on one arm and loaf OF brown
bread on the other.
