1t is time for our annual warning
against prairie fires and the necessity
of taking wise precautions to guard
against loss by fire is greater this
year than usual. This year has been
most favorable for an extraordinary

highly inflammable Every wide
awake farmer will at once plow fire
guards as a protection to his property.
He cannot afford to omit doing so.
Every body should also be careful not

Now is the time for the wide awake

HINT FOR SOME RICH MAN.

A Mexican miner with an income
of $25, 600 day proposes to liquidate
the entire national debt of Mexico,
says the Minneapolis Times. Pedro
Alvereda is the name of this genuine
Mexican, and his great wealth is the
result of lucky strike in the mining
field. Pedro discovered a great vein
of virgin silver, and, having no use
for the enormous store, is willing to
assume the debt of Mexico. His
wealth was found in the soil OF his
native land and he is therefore ready
to return it to the nation.
Incidentally Mr.. Rockefeller great
wealth came from the (s)oil Of the
United States, and was further aug
mented by wise management and
familiarity with the possibilities of
the enormous freight which he had to
offer to the railroads.
A reduction in the national debt
would be good thing, but the stop
page of the deficit would be better. If
congress will only use little wisdom
it will have no trouble arranging a
plan for the stoppage of the deficit.
The government debt is not worry
ing Uncle Samuel. The rate of inter-
est is very low and the bonds issued to
care for it are an excellent backing
for the currency circulation, making
every dollar good, without recourse
to the bank detector or the fear of
having currency debased over night,
as in ante bellum days.
However. Mr.. Rockefeller, Mr..
Carnegie, Mr.. Hyde or Mr.. Depew
might look into the matter as fairly
good way Of devising their property.

DOOlSsheIyPs.

People have become educated to see
ing bookshelves in library or sitting
room in preference to bookcases, for
these always seem designed more as
showcases for books and their bindings
than to hold books ready for intimate
use. Fewer bookcases are sold nova
days than formerly, for everybody
seems to appreciate the charm of the
low bookshelves built in around a
room or occupying some special nook
or corner In bay window or alcove.
On the top Of these shelves one can al
ways have plants, photographs, maya
zines, all the hundred and one little
furnishings that add to the beauty of a
room. The high corner bookshelves
are always good, for they use space
often otherwise wasted, and this is an
important factor in these days OF
apartment houses.

SEWING HINTS.

Always use double thread for gather
ing.
Always use as fine thread and
needle as the garment will allow.
When threading your needle make
the knot on the end broken from the
spool.
The rule for frilling is one and
quarter the length of the edge to be
trimmed.
III facing a sleeve turn it and place
the facing inside the sleeve before sew
ing it on.
Gathers should always be set on the
right side, but never with n needle.
Use large pin.
When sewing on n button place the
knot on the right side of the cloth d.
rectly under the button.
In sewing a seam put the stitches
closely together, but lightly, into the
cloth. being careful not to pull the
thread tight, as this causes the seam
to draw.
