Don't throw potato parings into the
garbage heap but into the stove, and
thereby save yourself the annoyance
of having to call out the fire depart
ment to put out chimney fire. The
burning of potato parings prevents
the gathering of SCOT. A man who
keeps up a strong coal fire in his
kitchen range every day during the
winter says you can never find trace
ofsoot on the lids, the bottoms of ket-
ties or any part of the stove, as pota-
to parings are burned daily. Further
more it is safer to burn potato parings
than to throw them out in the back
yard to become pestilence breeders.

charged with stealing chickens. The
negro was accompanied by his law

Washington Thomas, he pointed to
him and said
"Be you the defendant in this case?"
