Hydrocarbon vapors.

Experience in the storage and trans portation of hydrocarbon oils shows that one volume of petroleum yapor renders $50 volumes of air explosive and 1.150 volumes infiammable. and a redhot piece of metal or coal or a spark from steel or flint will not ignite an ex- plosive atmosphere of petroleum vapor. but white hot metal, flame or electric spark will readily do so. Naphtha en- posed to an atmospheric pressure of 80 inches at a temperature of 70 degrees F. evaporates at the rate of about 6 09 pounds per square foot per hour. Many accidents from explosions of hydrocar- bon vapors mixed with air arise from some leak in the receptacle or pipe hold ing them. explosion occurring on the approach of naked flame.

MRS. coo1s AND A CRISIS.
She Wa Tired of Joe's Shyness and Came
 to His Aid


 It was only a two room log cabin, and after supper Mrs. Coots and I sat down in the front room and left her daughter Sue, 8 girl about Is years old, to clear away and tidy up. She had just finished when & young man slipped into the kitchen. Ills headeear was a coonskin cap, the bottoms of his trousers were tucked into his boot legs and he was as awkward and ungainly as a COW on ice.
 "Howdy, Joe" saluted the girl as he entered
 "How-howdy," h. replied as he sat down on the edge of chair and fumhled with his cap.
 "That's her beau, '' whispered Mrs. Coots to me over her knitting. "Joe's peart huff, but powerful shy Bin coting Sue fur nigh a v ar now, but hain't dun axed her to marry him"
 The girl took a seat on the far side of the room, and for ten minutes not a word was spoken between them Then she finally queried;
 Flows bars, Joel"
 "Hain't seen a bar in three months, !" he replied.
 There was another painful interval, and then Sue asked:
 Flows coons, Joes''
 "Coons Is plenty" he replied as he avoided her glance.
 That's the way it goesr whispered the mother. They jist sot and sot and sot and talk bout bars and coons and sich, and I do deolar' I'm gittin all upsotr'
 Five minutes later, just as the young man seemed on the point of leaving, Sue kindly inquired:
 Killed any possums lately, Joeg''
 "Nary one," he replied as he stared at his boots
 "I can't abide that no mo'r' muttered the mother as she laid aside her work and rose up.
 What are you going to dot" asked.
 "Git 'em together or skeer him offy"
 She walked out into the kitchen and stood before the young man and sternly demanded:
 "Joe Skillman, did yo' dun cum over yere to borrow an axs"
 "N-no, mum" " he stammered.
 Did yo' dun cum to cote Sucs"
 "Y-yes, mumr'
 "Sue, do yo' want to be coteds"
 Reckon do,n answered Sue
 "Then yo' all jist listen to mel Joe, yo' git over on t'other side Sue, yo' snuggle up to him. Ize gwine to blow out the candle and leave yo' in the dusk, and men the strangers gwine to sot on the fur side of t'other room and talk loud. 1'ze got mighty tired of this fussin around, and yo' all has either got to fix or unfix things this very nightr' ..... An hour later, when Joe went home, Sue called her mother out and held a whisper ed conversation with her, and when Mrs. Coots returned to me she smiled grimly and explained:
 "They all ar gwine to be married next weekr'-A. B. Lewis in Truth.
