DISASTROUS PIRR
IN BORT & COMPANY'S DRUG
STORE, LOSS $4,000.
Origin Of Fire Unknown

On Monday, at about 5 o'clock, the
clerks Ill Bort & Co.'S Drug Store de-
tected, from smoke issuing from the
cellar, that fire was In progress,
and the alarm was given. The fire
company promptly responded, and
by heroic efforts. almost strangled
with smoke and burned with flares,
succeeded in saving the building.
but at loss from fire and water OF
almost the entire stock of wall paper,
awnings and various articles such as
all large establishments like Bort &
Co. always keep on hand.
The cause of the fire is not known.
Electric and gas lights were burning
at the time, and defects in either of
these may have started blaze. The
wooden ceiling is badly oharred. and
from appearances, In but few mo-
ments the floor would have been
burned through.
The chemicals, oils and explosives
were luckily stored in rear room,
separated from the front by SUBJ
stantlal brick wall.
The property is insured in several
companies represented by McCray &
Son, W. F. Bowen, Fred Hoppe and
the Druggists Insurance Company.
At the the time of the FIRE the fire
team, instead of being at the flre
department, only square away, and
where it should be constantly kept
under care of Fire Department, wac
off in distant part of the town haul
ing dirt under order of the street
commissioner. The fire team was II
minutes from the time the alarm bell
was rung until it reached the drug
store. In the mean time the heroic
firemen had hauled the fire apparatus
to the scene, and had the flames sub
dued when the "Fire Horses"
rushed up.
A petition was at once circulated
asking. demanding the council to
place the fire team under control of
the fire company, which petition was
and is being signed by everybody.
Mr.. Bort is not disbeartened nor
discouraged. He has ordered new
supply Of wall paper. and. goods of
he kinds destroyed, and can supply
in few days the wants Of his many
patrons.

The Housekeeper should

Always rub little soft mot melted)
butter over the top of bread dough
when in a mass, after being nodded
into loaves; this prevents hard crust.
Always make starch with soapy wa
ter, which will give a better gloss to
the linen and prevent the irons from
sticking.
Always open canned fruit or vege-
tables an hour or two before they are
needed, that the flavor may be i'm
proved and always empty the con-
tents of a tin can into a glass or china
dish as soon as it is opened.
Always keep steel ornaments in
powdered starch to prevent their rust
ing.
Always invert the washtubs and put
little water on the bottom of them
so they will not dry out and leak be-
fore the following wash day.
Always see that the shoes are prop
erly cared for when taken off at night;
straighten and smooth out the wrin-
kles, draw down from the instep and
pull up from the heel
Never paper a wall that is inclined
to be damp, without first making it
in1pervious to moisture; which may
be done by applying varnish of one
parts of shellac to two of naptha The
disagreeable odor will soon disappear,
and, after papering, there will be no
more trouble from moisture stains.
Never read, nor sew, nor write, i'm
mediately after coming from compar-
alive darkness into bright light, if
you have good eyes and would keep
them.
Never add salt to new milk used for
grayies, stews, etc, until just before
serving, if you would avoid curdling
the milk.
Never despair when linen seems
hopelessly scorched from an overhead
ed iron; soak the stain in luke-warm
water, squeeze lemon juice on it,
sprinkle little salt over it, and place
it in the sunshine to bleach.

IN OUR LADY's MONTH.
(BY William d Kelly

(By William D. Kelly.)
When underneath the vernal skies.
Whose arches glow with gentle
graces,
The emerald earth, Madonna, lies.
The flowers unveil their lovely
faces;
And primrose pale and daffodil.
And buttercups and snowy daisies.
Bid welcome back to dale and hill
The month that multiplies thv
praises.
Melodious are the groves and woods,
Wherein the birds rehearse thy
glories,
And winds, to fill the interludes.
Exhaust their sweet repertories;
And when the days deyotions die.
AS field and wood and grove grow
shady,
Each scintillating sphere on high
Hymns nocturns to thee. Blessed
Lady.

can be stirred into the peroxide. This
will bleach the hair to a light straw
color. And, as the ammonia is injuri-
Gus to the roots of the hair, the hair
will soon die itself and fall out. Hair
can be killed with peroxide and am
monia without the least difficulty.
All of these things require patience.
Rome was not built in a day, neither
!, was the upper lip made smooth with
out great deal of time and care. If
one goes to a specialist one is willing
to take the time for the work. So, in
treating the face at home, one cannot
expect it all done without time or
trouble.
The pumice treatment is recon-
mended for the arms, or for light cases
of hair on the upper lip. The hair is
scrubbed off with powdered pumice
and the place is then rubbed with cold
cream to keep it from getting red. If
one is willing to undergo great deal
of smarting, one can Immediately ap-
ply ammonia to the upper lip or to the
arms. But be careful, for the pain
may be considerable.
There is not the least necessity for
the presence of superfiuous hair upon
any face Neither need the arms be
disfgured with it. The hair is so
easily taken off that it seems incred-
ible that any woman should be willing
to live with it upon her face. True,
she may be among those who admire
a little down on the lip, and if so, then
she has sufficient excuse for allowing
it to grow.
If there are any readers of this col
umn who are struggling with superfiu-
GUS hair and who have tried to remove
it and have not succeeded, let such
take hope There is no reason why it
should not be taken off at once. 1t
may be that one remedy has not
worked, then the next one will.
If any reader has tried, and has not
succeeded, let her write to this depart
ment of the paper and advice will be
given her for the speedy and the per
manent removal of that which cannot
but be an annoyance to her
Please, in writing, state how long
you have had the superfluous hair, and
what you have done for it; also state
the condition of your complexion, for
unless these things are known the adj
vice will not be good for anything.
Be sure of one thing, that superflu-
Gus hair can always be removed, and
that it is an affection that is wholly
unnecessary.

Obedience in Children.

The practice of bribing children
with promises is a pernicious one that
is all too common. That brides ought
not to be necessary goes without say
ing. Parental authority has no place
in the understanding of children
brought up by such a system. Above
all, what pitiful child-cynics are pro-
duced by the custom of promising
glibly what there is no intention to
perform. What little one is so unfor-
tunate as he who can place no faith in
his mothers utterances; who acquires
in early years the hard scepticism
which belongs only to later life? There
is another exactlyS imilar practice
is another exactly similar practice
which cannot be too strongly con-
demned; that of enforcing obedience
by terrifying threats. To tell a child
that the policeman is coming, that the
ragman will carry him off, that the
bad man will get him, etc., is positive
cruelty, however ludicrous these say
ings may sound in adult ears. Very
often incurable nervousness, uncon-
querable cowardice, unreasoning fear
of the dark, and other Affections akin
to these may be traced to this abom
Unable way of trading on childish cred
ulity and timioity. Parents should
train their children to unquestionins
| obedience.
