As soon as the excitement attendant
upon the awful catastrophe had SUBJ
sided the thoughts and conversation
Of the hundreds of people who had
gathered at the scene and of the resi-
dents Of the twin villages of Fishkill
Landing and Matteawan turned to the
question of responsibility for the dis
lster.
Morgan IT. Hoyt, member OF the
eoroner's jury, said: II believe that
the Fishkill and Matteawan Water
company will be held for criminal neg
ligence. One of the dams at least has
been notoriously unsound ever since II
was built. ten years ago. and has been
leaking all the time. The dam was
one half feet above the water and threa
and a half below. and built Of cobble-
stones. People have been predicting its
collapse ever since / have lived here"
Similar expressions could be heard
all around the village.

Kcep Miilx cana Glenn.

In the care of cans, they are to be
kept clean and free from rust. They
should be washed as soon rs possible
after being used. Rinse first with cold
water. then scrub thoroughly with n
brush both Inside and outside. using
warm water-almost hot, or, better, a
good soapsuds. which use often any
how. Give particular attention to the
seams, and don't forget the outsides.
You know the inside is often judged
by the outside Finish with scaiding
water. Turn your cans upside down
long enough to allow them to drain;
then leave them right side up. or on
their sides. in the fresh air. and you
will have clean, sweet cans. 1t Is a
very common error to leave them over
a stake o. a board This Is serious
mistake, as Invariably the cans will
sour thereby. The hot air or steam
rises. and having no escape. conse-
quently condenses in the cans and
sours. Much milk otherwise well
cared for Is often tainted from no other
reason. A rusty can should not be
used. as 1t imparts Il foreign flavor to

Evils of jealousy.

The physicians say that the enter.
tainment of jealousy really has a dis.
organizing effect upon the body, and
certainly it is disturbing to the mind
A jealous woman may have been rs
lovely as a May morning, but jealousy
upsets her.
Jealousy guarantees biliousness.
Biliousness makes bad temper, cross
words. These, too, are disturbing to
the cook, and she sends bad food to the
table. The man can't eat 1t, and his
business goes wrong all day. A jeal-
Gus, bilious woman is bad mother.
She upscts the children, and money has
to be paid out for medicine for them.
Domestic jealousy becomes in time
very dangerous. Professional or bust.
ness jealousy fills. The woman who
whispers n convenient detrimental
word about an associate into the ear
of her patron or employer may bene-
fit for day. In the end, he concludes
she is untrustworthy.
