most of the damage to water piping from freezing was due to lack of a proper understanding of precautionary measures to be taken. He said that to allow water to run from a faucet in the front yard does not protect the piping between there and the house or keeping the water moving plan is used. it Is necessary to let the water run freely and from a faucet at the ex- treme end of the house piping system so that the water will keep moving in the entire spur line of piping. The safest means of protection. is to drain the pipes, by turning of the water at the stop and waste" cock and open ing all faucets in the house, so the air pressure will force out all of the water through the waste cock.
 All closet bowls, from which water cannot be drained, should be well salt ed-a handful of coarse salt to each bowl being sufficient.
 After water has been turned or, 1t should not be again turned into the cold pipes. until after the air tempera- ture has risen to at least 70 degrees.

 The rains. which continued well into Sunday night, were so general and heavy over the section drained by the Alabama River, as to considerably aug ment the rise in that stream. Moder- ate flood stages now prevail from We tumpka to below Selma.

 'iOf course, you have some letters to burn." Jin said 1t with an insidious conviction that made Jack stammer yes before he realized what he was saying.
 s'Now, Jack, l have the incest plan. You have some letters and I have some. Let's exchange and each read the cther's, and then burn them to- xether. Will you? You will bring them up tomorrow night, you know? Jill had her arms around Jacks neck and she rubbed her cheek against his in her favorite caress while she waited for an answer. Now If Jack and Jill had been sober old Darby and Joan, sitting by their own freside with all the TO- nance worn away, those clinging arms about his neck and the feel of soft cheek against his own would have had small influence on Jacks answer. As it was. they exerted a great deal of in- fiuence.

 He brought the letters up next even ing. a fat bundle of envelopes cream and white. pale blue and demure gray, most of them addressed in the Lean ing Tower of Pisa Style of chirography which the modern girls affects. Jill produced a much fatter bundle of let ters of all shapes, sizes and conditions, some of them written on precise and proper stationery, some hurriedly scrib- bIed on once letter heads. The packet was tied with a blue ribbon and Jill reIinquIshed it grudgingly. She would not have yielded 1t at all had not that other bundle of letters been temptingly outspread upon the table. She was dying to read them.
