away from the scene of death and
devastation.
The origin of the fire is a mystery
and will probably always remain so,
but Fire Chief Vaughan is of the opin-
ion that the child started it itself. The
report was freely circulated upon the
street this morning tina the first fire
men to effect an entrance had found
both of the doors to the room in
which the child was imprisoned lock-
ed, indicating that the child had been
shut up in there, presumably for pun
ishment. However, Mr. Vaughan
would not say that this was true, as
when he entered, both doors had been
battered down.
The house was owned by John Dan
but was run by Mrs. Lee as a room

on both the furniture and house.

EnqIand,s Crest Wall.

Directly across the north Of Eng
land, between points near Carlisle and
Newcastle, ran Hadrian's wall, the
northern boundary OF the Roman en-
pire. 1t is generally supposed to have
been erected by the Emperor Hadrian
between lit and 1873 A. ID. The wall
was of stone and was eight feet thick
and twelve feet high. II was guarded
by eighteen military stations, CUR
risoned by cohorts of Roman soldiers,
and at intervals Of mile were forts
built to contain eighty men each. Be-
tween every two forts were four watch
towers. South Of the stone wall was
q series Of earthen ramparts, and be-
tween the two ran the great military
road, still In use as q highway. Of
this vast work comparatively few por
lions remain, a matter Of wonder, per
haps. when one sees the solidity Of
the sections Of the wall which still
stand, but easily explained by the fins

HOW TO CURE A SOFT CORN
Nitric Acid IL Used With Care 10
Usually Effective.


A painful thickening of the skin
sometimes occurs on one OF the ser
eral surfaces Of the interdlgital regions
Of the toes. This is ordinarily known
as the soft corn.
The development of the lesion ex-
plains the resistance which 1t offers TO
topical medicaments. In fact, the cpl
dermis, being In an irritated condition
all round the small tumor. gradually
encircles 1t with enlarged horny layers
until 1t IS completely covered. The
first thing to be done, therefore, ia to
remove this circular epithelial barrier.
For this purpose the parts must be
carefully washed with soap and wa
ter and then with alcohol. This suf-
ices to render visible a little hollow
covering ON the top Of the conlcal
thickening. forming a kind OF hood
over the tumor. Ii may be gently re
moved by means Of the point OF fine
scissors without drawing blood. In
this way the small corn, the source OF
all the trouble, Il laid bare.
All that IL now required Ii to place
q drop of nitric acid on the tumor by
means of a small wooden rod and 70
leave 1t to penetrate the corn. The
natural moisture Of the parts fayors
the infiltration of the acid
After a few minutes the tumor i
carefully washed with diluted water
which quickly soothes the smartins
resulting from the chemical cauteriza
ton. A moist dressing Of aseptic cot
ton wool Is then placed over IT, This
should be removed the same evening
On the following days the part should
be washed with soap and water and q
small roll of cotton applied. Towart
the third or fourth day the brOwnisf
crust caused by the cauterizaion is cu
out with fine scissors, and then small
wound is laid bare. This is soon heal
ed when dressed with boiled water.
In case the first operation has NO
been sufficient, fact which may b.
easily determined by touching tn,
parts to find whether there Is still an!
painful hardening. new cauterizatioI
by nitric acid Is practiced, followed b!
a similar series Of dressings.
1t is rare that a soft corn Of averag
dimenslons-that is. Of the size Of |
millet seed or a lentil-resists a thir'
cauterization.-New York Herald.

How 10 Avoid Divorce.

My advice to husbands who wish 10
avoid divorce is this: Don't quote
mother. Call up your wife while at
business and ask how she Is and tell
her that you called her up just to hear
her voice. Take her box Of candy.
one Of the new books that she is In
terested In, flower, even IL it Is
faded and you have picked 1t up OF
the street: pretty pin or handker-
chief. and don't ever lay your head on
your pillow at night without having
done something to gain and obtain a
firmer hold on your wife's love. Kiss
her every day. At least once a month
meet her downtown and take her 10
dinner and the theater. Don't ever
stop counting, for as soon as you do
some other man win begin. Make
your wife your companion. Take her
out with you, and when you have tc
have big time take your wife along
and the divorce evil will be lessened
