the chances are the person was un-
der a tree, If not there. then the like.
lihood is that he was by wire fence
or reaching up to a wire clothesline
or holding a pillow with metal sinking
into the damp earth. or in touch with
the large damp bodies of horses or
cattle. If in the house or barn, the
victim will usually prove to have been
by an open door or window, where
pass currents of air. forming an cleo
trical conductor nearly as good some
times as one of more substantial
character, or by a chimney sinking to
the earth and rising above the build

summer; or near a sweating haymow
or load-which does much to explain
why so many barns are struck"

The Summer
Oil Stove

Many women seem TO have an I'm
reasonable prejudice for an oil stove
until after they have used one. Then
they would never do without. II gas
could be had in the country ii would,
of course, be more satisfactory, but
since the majority Of us cannot have
it, good oil stove is not bad sub
stitute. And every country woman
for the sake of her own comfort and
convenience ought to have one. Think
of half cooking ones self over red
cooking, baking, washing and ironing
The oil stove is not luxury; it is an
absolute necessity.
We have used one ever since the
one-burner, lamp-like affair came on
the market. To be sure, this some
times smoked terribly, but yet it
saved some warm hours in the kitch-
en-. Now the oil stove has been SO
improved that it is almost as good as
a gas range and if it is well cared for
it will do splendid work without CIV
ing off bad odors or backing pans and
kettles.
When buying stove order one with
three burners and an oven. This will
provide ample heat for all ordinary
cooking. Choose one with blue
fame instead of yellow, and also
see that your selection has a solid oil
tank with the opening covered by a
perforated cap. Also make sure that
your stove may be lighted at any time
without waiting some time for oil to
drip. A stove of the latter kind gave
us no end Of trouble, though 1t was
splendid for cooking after we once
had IL started. The oil had to be
turned on for few minutes before
the stove could be lighted. In case
we forgot it, which happened more
than once, the oil proceeded to run
until it had covered nearly the whole
floor. After being lighted and burn
ing up well for few minutes the oil
was turned off. When the flame had
burned low it was turned on again
and after that better stove could not
be found. But this was the only
troublesome one we ever had, and
since then we have used a stove
which can be lighted at any time.
Your success with the stove depends
largely upon the care given it. Use
the best oil and keep the stove clean
and wicks trimmed. Keep the wicks
turned low for few moments after
lighting, then adjust them. When
using the oven place it Immediately
over the burners. 1t will heat in
from fifteen to twenty minutes. Place
your baking in the lower part for ten
or fifteen minutes, then remove to the
upper. To save time and expense buy
a compartment cooker, in which you
can cook several kinds of vegetables
\ at once upon one burner-E Elizabeth

PEARY'S LATE START
DELAY MAY SERIOUSLY INTER
.FERE WITH HIS PLANS.
Unable Now to Reach Open Water Be-
fore End of Summer and This Is
Expected to Result in a Whole Year
of lnactlon-His Hard Luck.

p. T. McGrath of st. Johns, N. f.,
who is an authority on northern voy-
ages, writes to The Daily News as foi-
lows: The delay In diEpatching
Peary's steamer Roosevelt threatens
TO interfere seriously with his plans
for getting TO the far north this sum-
mer. His original intention was to
have her leave New York on July
and get away from the Newfoundland
coast about a week later, declaring
himself in several interviews that any
detention after July 10 would seriously
handicap him in his endeavor 10 at
tain an extreme northing before the
polar channels freeze up again, so that
he might, If possible, get into the open
polar sea and establish himself there
before the brief summer months end.
! However, he only left Sydney, n. s.,
on July 81, where he had been coaling.
He is, therefore, about three weeks
! behind the date which he fixed as his
latest, and, although his ship is much
! faster than previous exploring boats,
! IL must be evident that he has no
time TO spare if he is to reach any
PARKWAY point within the frozen zone
this year. His hope was that he could
get as far up as the Polaris and Thetis
went in 1871 and 1882, which ships got
right into the Polar sea in the one
season, being favored by brief spell
of open water, and this would be a
great advantage to him, as he would
have his advanced base within about
500 miles of the pole itself or SOC
miles nearer than he could otherwise
reach. He would, therefore, be able
TO make his dash across the paleo
crystic ice TO the pole next spring and
have a second year in which TO repeat
the effort If he failed the first time
But if he is unable to reach very

Fruit as an Anti-Fat.

Many persons become over-fat
because they have not the will
power to reduce the amount of
food taken at each meal. They
cannot refrain from eating till sat
isfed. Such may be helped by eat
ing a great deal of fruit at meal time.
The fruit increases the bulk Of food
taken, but does not add very large
amount Of either fat or muscle-making
food. One can thus eat till satisfied
and yet reduce the amount of nu.
trients taken. II there is danger OF
overeating, take the fruit at the be-
ginning of the meal instead of at the
end.

Thouoht the Spots Were Movino.

The graduating class of the inter-
mediate school, as 1t was then called,
in Waltham, Mass, in the year 1870,
were having their exercises in the
schoolroom. The children were dress
ed in their prettiest, and in one of the
seats in the back row sat a colored
boy. Back of him was a blackboard.
On the platform sat two of the
school committee, one a small, wiry
man, and the other a large, portly
man and very near-sighted. This
near-sighted committeeman, after
looking a long while in the direction
of the colored boy, and seeing that the
whites of his eyes were moving, and
not distinguishing what they were,
leaned forward to his friend and whis-
pered: Are those white spots on
that blackboard moving?"

Shaken Up.

Illinois was shaken by an earth
quake shortly after IL o'clock last
night the most severe in recent years.
The shock. in the southern part of the
state, especially in the region sur
rounding East st. Louis, was severe
enough to rattle dishes and furniture,
cause dogs TO bark as If in alarm and
children to awaken and cry. Houses
creaked and in many instances their
occupants rushed out in terror, fear
ing that the straining beams and joists
would give away. AS far north as
Springfield the shock was distinctly
felt. Farther north 1t grew less per-
ceptible, until in the region Of Chlca'
go 1t was not noticed.
Not only Illinois, but western Ken
lucky and parts of Tennessee and In
diana were shaken. Messages from
the different towns in those states
say that three distinct shocks, In
quick succession, were felt. The
waves of earth motion seemed to be
from east TO west.
