Dangerous Fluids.

Benzine and gasoline should never be
allowed TO stand in a bottle or in any
thing else where the hot sun shines on
it. Not long ago house was set on FIRE
in that manner. Never use either Of
these inflammable fluids in room
where there is ever so little fire. A
match will ignite the volatile fumes ex-
actly as quick as base burner in full
blast. We make no apology for this
caution, for hardly week passes that
