Mason and the AZ Brakes.

1t was in the time of the old BIOS
ton & Providence railroad that air
brakes were first introduced, but even
then railroading was so little under
stood that few men realized their I'm
pOrtance. Supt. Mason of the BoHtOn
& Providence was one of these. al
though he had the reputation of being
an eminently practical man. One
day ar agent of an air brake company
was explaining to him the working of
the main reservoir, but Mason could
not seem to ge it through his head.
You say you pump air into it?" he
inquired. Yes" was the reply. well
amt it full of air, anyhow; and how
are you going to fill it any fuller?
Think you can make a pail hold twice

"Our baby had that dreadful com

covering his whole body. His suffer

in fact, there was nothing we would
not have done to have given him re-

the Cuticura Remedies, and in about
three or four days he began to show a
brighter spirit and really laughed, for
the first time in a year. In about
ninety days he was fully recovered.
Praise for the Cuticura Remedies has
always been our greatest pleasure,

Best Things to Do When Caught In.
Burning Building.

Chief Crocker, Of the New York
fire brigade, offers the following ad,
vice as to conduct in case Of al out
break of fire:
Keep cool; no matter how hot
everything around you gets, retair
a cool, calm equilibrium, and you'll
come out all right.
Send in the alarm Immediately;
do not take it for granted that some
m else has rung up the FIRE de.
partinent.
Fight the fire yourself before the
iremen arrive. Very few fires, 10 dis
covered at the outset are beyond the
control of the people on the premises,
If only quick, intelligent action IL
taken. Fight the flames with pals
of water; smother them with rugs
and blankets; beat them out with wei
brooms.
Block the spread of fire. If tho
burning room or rooms can be shut
off from the rest of the building, IL
will take considerable time for the
fire to spread. Shut all doors, tran,
SONS and windows opening on shafts.
and, If possible, those to the exterior
By closing up the burning rooms you
prevent draughts, and cut off a new
supply Of oxygen. The fire, after ex'
hausting the oxygen, will only smoul
der.
Never ascend to the upper stories
of a burning building. The upper
are always the most dangerous. The
smoke, superheated air and poisonous
fumes which it is death to inhale, col
lect first in the top of the house. Fire
spreading through a building, burns
straight to the roof. usually by way
of the halls and stairways, and then
widening its course, eats back to the
stories below. The lower floors are
the safest in time of fire.
Never try to climb up the stairs t
the roof, and never open the scuttle
A hole through the roof to the oper
air would serve as a chimney, anC
magnify the conflagration almost in
credibly.
Keep out of the halls. The safe
way to await the arrival of the fire
men is In a room as low down in the
building as you can get without risl
of smoke-laden halls. Shut all doors
and transoms in room in which YOU
stay, and open the windows wide t
keep the air cool and pure. If smoke
breaks in, lean out of the windows
Be careful not to get excited, ant
not to breathe in the hot, smoking at

Make your way from the building
if the fire is dangerous, and you ca
escape without Drawing too great heat
A wet towel held over the mouth ant
nostrils will enable you to live in al
otherwise deadly atmosphere. Blu
