MRS. ". v. THORNTON
HAS NARROW ESCAPE

Mrs. W. V. Thornton, who with
liet husband spent Sunday fishing on
Beatet, met with what might have
been very serious accident during
the trip. Having been caught in a
rain storm, returned to camp and
after putting on dry clothing, was
standing by the fire when her cloth
ing ignited. She at once tried to
throw off her outer coat, and before
she could do so tho blaze had leaped
to her neck and shoulders. Realiz.
ing that it was impossible to put the
fire out she threw herself into n
puddle OF water and after rolling over
so veral times succeeded in quenching
the blaze and escaped without serious
Injury.
Ia this connection our attention hns
been called to the fact that often
people will carelessly throw pnrlor
match on tho pavement, which has
been known to result fatally. We re.
call an incident in Denver few
years ago when lady who was
standing ON remote street corner,
stepped upon parlor match. her
clothing became ignited and before as
sistance arrived death overlook her.

OTHER CITIES WORKING
TO GET WHAT We have

The first legal steps wefe taken
last week looking toward the purifica.
tion of the water of the Arkansas
river.
The complaint was made in behalf
of the city of Pueblo, but Canon City
and Salida have joined forces with
Pueblo against the Twin Lakes plac-
ers and the contest is to BIO waged un-
til the matter is settled.
All Of this reminds US again of the
good fortune which is the result of
wisdom) Of Florence in having such
a fine, pure. soft water supply. This
/, such an important asset of Florence
that too much can scarcely be said
about 1t. Next to the air we breathe,
water plays probably the most impor-
tant part in our physical comfort and
we'll being. We have no desire to
crow over other communities less
fortunate than ourselves, but when
we read of their having to drink
water that is pronouno ed undrink.
able and to use for domestic purposes
that which is unfit and makes work
distasteful and !aborious. it does
make us appreciate in a special way
this clean. pure. soft mountain
water.
