Most farmers fully realize the i'm
portance of salt to the farm ami
mails, but they too often forget to
supply it at the proper time and in
proper quantities. Possibly sheep
should be treated a little more eau

aspect, and small quantities doled

animals can safely be trusted with

which they may have free access.
Even the swine will do better if a
lump of rock salt is put in the cor
ner of the trough, although it is
usually the better plan with them
TO season the slop given them with
more or less salt. This is also the
olter plan of furnishing salt to
'owls-putting it in the mash each
day, but in small quantities -just
about as much as the housewife
would use in seasoning a mixed dish

An Episcopal clergyman, of Chi

ed out of a bad break the other day
by the quick wit of his wife.
On the day in question he saw {
lady about to call whom he was
anxious not to meet. So he said
to his wife: Nov I'm off, my dear.
I'll run upstairs and escape till she
goes away"
After about an hour he quietl!

he began to descend, and while do

phatically called out over the balus
ter: We'll, my dear, has that ole
bore gone at last?"
The next instant a voice from be
low caused the cold perspiration tc
bedew his ministerial brow and
rooted him to the spot.
Then there came a response
which sounded inexpressiblysweet tc
him. 1t was the voice of his wife
who, with womanly tact, replied;

friend, Mrs. Halls, whom lam sure

CONFEDERATION Narrowly Averted

The stiffness of Sunday afternoon
last was broken by a fire alarm,
which, Notwithstanding that at the
time the streets were practically
deserted, called forth several hun
dred people in afew minutes. About
six o'clock great clouds of heavy,
black smoke were discovered COM
ing from the roof of Mrs. Ida Shep-
pard's home, and as the fire was in
the attic the building at first SEEM
ed to be doomed. However, several
young men, forgetful of the danger,
scaled the roof even without the
aid of a ladder, and cut a hole
through the shingles. Mr.. Vaughn,
one of the electricians at the mill,
who apparently possessed the nerve
and exi e fence of a veteran city
fireman, defed the heat and smoke
and plunged down into the attic
where the fire was spreading, fol-
lowed by several young men of the
town. While the hole was being
made in the roof, a bucket brigade
composed of all colors, sizes, ages and
sexes were rushing water to the
roof in buckets, pitchers, saucepans,
tubs to be poured upon the
flames. After access was gained to
the fire it was soon gotten under
control and the splendid building
saved. This residence was erected
by DIR. w. E. Prescott in 1890, and
being constructed of the best heart
material that the county afforded at
that time the fire could not have
been controlled Lad it Let Teen
discovered early.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
Possibly due to rats and matches"
It caught beneath the roof hut not
near the chimney. Besides the dam
age to the Building, Mrs. Sheppard
sustained some loss through the re-
moval of a portion of her furniture,
all of which is covered by insurance.
While r~egretting the misfortune,
Mrs. Sheppard's friends rejoice with
her over the fact that the confaera-
ton, which at one time threatened
the total destruction of her home,
was not greater.
