why
IS NIIDOD PORCH
NODON SHADES
Are Needed

You need Vudor Porch Shades to get
the most out of your porch.
To make it spot where you can
rest or work on the hottest days-out-
doors, yet free from the suns glare and
heat
You can do this with Vudor Porch
Shades; you can add to the house an
other room, cool and shady, where you
may enjoy every refreshing breeze, in
secluded comfort
Vudor Porch Shades are very dur
able, and will last many seasons.
Another good feature about them is
the peculiar fact that those sitting on
the porch can see out, but passersby
cannot see in. In other words, you
have complete privacy, and can use
the porch or veranda the same as an
inside room, with infinitely more COM
fort on hot days.
Vudor Porch Shades are just the
thing for boxing in porches or bal
comics that are to be used as outdoor
sleeping or living apartments
Vudor Porch Shades are made OF

ly bound by strong Seine Irvine, in a

Extreme Heat Kills Three.

San Francisco, Aug. 2.-The heat in

three persons were killed by the torrid
waves. Mrs. c. E. Fashpach was
found dead in bed at Visalia and Ri
serie S. Rugars was overcome by the
heat on a road near Tulare. He died
after rolling into a ditch. The heat is

high as ia degrees within the past
few hours. The third victim was the

Later Report.

When night fell over the ashes of
Ferie Monday 15 corpses had been
found among which were the bodies of
Mrs. Addie Turner aged 70; Walter
Ford aged 40; Mrs. Walter Ford son
aged 2 and daughter aged 8; and
several more who could not be identi-
fed.
1t is believed that the death list in
the vicinity of Fernie will reach $50.
Chief of Police Cook with a number
of deputies has been sesrhcing all day
where ever it was reported lives were
lost and it is believd that many other
bodies will be found.
No attempt has yet been made to list
the missing, as families are separated
in the mad rush to get out of town DUR
ing the fire.
Fires are still burning in the noun
tains all about Ferie, but there is moth
ing left in town to burn.
Blsckened ohimneys and a few tot
tering ruins stand up boldly above the
ashes fitting monuments to the destroy
ed city.
1t is rumored in Nelson that the fires
were started by Italians who hoped
thereby to liberate few of their
friends in prison at Fernie.
Is is said the towns of Hosmer and
Michel. Coal Creek have been saved
from destruction although a few houses
have burned in those places.

The inhabitants of the towns have
