HOW 70 LIGHT A FIRE.

Al Told In The Household by Ono Who
Has Had Experience
In lighting CRATE fire the best foun-
dation to begin upon would be few
cinders which have been sifted from the
ashes. Upon these should be placed a
layer of paper and then some small bits
of dry wood. The whole should be COW
cred over, but not SO closely as to en-
tirely exclude the passage Of air, with
moderately sized pieces of coal. If these
directions are strictly followed, the fire
being properly laid. when the paperfs
lighted from below by means of a patch,
there will arise a stream of lime from
the paper and wood whichTill be COM
municated to both SGaEand cinders and
bright fire thsAHt.
Many peolgfr in not building their
fires welaN in the CRATES, the conse-
que9 mig a most disagreeable flood
q Re issuing into the room, instead
orgo1ng up the chimney. Another and
newer method Of lighting fire is some
times practiced by reversing the order
of things, the fire being lighted from
above instead of below. This is arranged
by laying some coal and few cinders
at the bottom, upon top of which is laid
the wood, then another layer of Goals
and some paper over that The paper is
first lighted and soon burned down,
making bright fire with considerable
economy of fuel.
The kitchen fire is somewhat more
difficult to manage, as its demands are
many and varied. Sometimes only
moderate degree of heat is required,
while again the fire is required to be
very hot. The degree of heat depends
less upon the amount of coal that is used
than upon the regulation of the various
checks and drafts, which are easily
managed if one is thoroughly acquainted
with the mechanism of the kitchen stove
or range. Every morning all cinders and
ashes should be removed and the fire
laid in a similar manner to that of the
CRATE, which has already been described,
allowing always for free circulation
of air by leaving hollow spaces between
the fuel, chiefly toward the center.
All the drafts should then be opened
and the fire lighted. After it has been
allowed to burn for ten minutes all the
hampers should be closed, with the ex-
ception of the draft in front of the fire,
which should be left open until all the
coal has become ignited without being
redhot. Such fire should remain in
excellent condition for hours.

The fashion of draping the rever of
dresses and the silk or satin capes of out
door coats or jackets is on the increase.
The fitness that was once a distinctive
feature of the latter and the stiffness that
was equally characteristic have given way
to a number of multiplied folds, which
might be insignificant were it not for the
costly fur or passementerie that borders
them. Short pieces of valuable old lace
