CO re of Lamps.

Buy the best oil.
Fill the lamps by daylight.
Lamps should be kept well filed.
Never attempt to light a lamp that is
only partly filed.
Keep the oil can closed and in a cool

See that any hanging lamps you may
have are securely hung.
When buying lamps select those in
which the end of the burner is consid-
erably elevated above the body of the
lamp.
Watch your wicks closely, and change
them before they become too short.
If burning oil gets upon the floor,
smother with wooden blankets or rugs.

A Warning to the Tender Hearted.

II will be remembered that Victor
Hugo's famous story, "The Man Who
Laughs" F" was founded on the practices
Of band OF miscreants in England who
kidnapped little children and mutllated
them in order that they might make
more effective use Of them as beggars,
the hero Of the story being one OF these
unfortunates. Inhuman practices OF
the same kind, for the same purposes,
are said to be common at this time IN
China. But according to recent reports
from local police courts, it is unneces-
sary to 90 into the realm of fiction or
over to the Celestial Empire to find pro-
fessional beggars resorting to mutilatlon
in order to excite sympathy. A gang
OF these parasites was recently discoy-
cred in Hoboken, N. Y, every one of
whom had manned himself in some
way. Some had chopped off one or
more fingers, some had burned them
selves with red-hot irons, and Others
had crippled their arms or legs In varl'
GUS ways. How successful these sell
inflicted injuries had been as adIunct'
to the begging trade may be judged iron
the fact that one of the band, who be
trayed the others TO the police tol
motives OF revenge, declared that on'
man had gathered in $4,000 in lou
months and another had made 5000 Il
five weeks. The rule seemed to be, !
was said, that the more severe the mu
tilation the better were the return
financially.

observations on the Water Question.

Hood River, Oregon, January IL, 1908.
Editor Glacier: 1t is evident to a
casual observer that Hood River city is
now next to and confronted by a eondi-
tion that requires prompt and heroic
action with regard to an adequate water
supply and fire protection.
The growth and development OF the
town has now reached magnitude that
will no longer admit Of delay and
dilly-dailying without results or assur-
ance Of any conclusion being arrived at
for the protection and comfort Of the in
dividuai citizen or general public.
The recent rapid growth OF the town
has placed too much valuable property
in jeopardy from loss by fire. Without
an efficient fire protection the rates Of
insurance are so high that it is prohi-
bitory tax against capital being invest
ed in business enterprise or building o.
residences such as the natural advan'
taees OF the location and town actually
merit and would receive with favorable
conditions. There is but two ways to dis
pose Of this matter, right and wronl
way.
To me it appears the only correc
way Is to act on your suggestion las
week. For the city to go immediatel.
before the legislature and secure an en-
abling acs and proceed to issue bond
and nut in a water system which wi
furnish a good and sufficient fire prote'
ton to the property Of the entire tow

Residents of Mosier aud vicinity are
agitating the building of a new wagon
road from The Dalles to Mosier. Their
proposition is that the county secure
The old o. R. & n. right of way from
here to tunnel No. |, and that a road
be constructed from that point across
the hills to Mosier. From here to Row.
ena the grade would be almost on a
level, and from Rowena to Mosier a
road could be built across the bill on
comparatively easy grade. There are
many features connected with this
road that are attractive. First it would
give the people of Mosier a direct out
let to The Dalles by wagon road, anc
second it would give good road from
The Dalles to a point opposite Lyle, Q
