FIRES FROM KILLING. INSECTS.
Industrial Alcohol and Playing Chill.
dren.

Each summer, homes are burned
by fires started by houskeepers u.s.
ing gasolene to get rid of bed bugs
These bugs live and rear their fam
lilies in cracks in bedsteads, in floors.
behind base boards and under wall
! paper.
The fires started in trying to kill
them are not from pouring gasolene
into a crack, and at once setting fire
to it,as is often done. Usually they
come from splashing the gasolene
about a-d then, after it has given
off it's >Apor, striking a match to
light some dark crack. Sometime.
the gasolene is used at night with
lamp to give light. When the vapor
from the gasolene reaches the match
flame, or is drawn up into the flame
of the lamp, there is an explosion
| which fires the house.
The Story CT the Bug.
To get rid of an insect pest we
must know it's habits.
The bed bug belongs to the cim-
icidae family, the eleven other mem
bers of which make their homes in
the nests of birds, especially the
swallow. That "the bed bug has no
wings at all"has not always been true
1t once had.b lost them by disuse
after it fell from the position
of an active bug which made it's own
living, and began to live on the
blood of men. Now . it has become
flattened SO it can enter cracks In
beds and walls that pin. cannot
and it can live for months without
food.In reaching full growth the bug
outgrows five shells, and if the gen
tleman or lady, upon whom it de-
Ponds for its meals, sleeps at home
one night in each of eight weeks.
it can reach full size in that time;
one meal only being taken for each
now shell.
Each female lays several punches
of IL to SO eggs. The new bugs are
brown from the coloring matter of
human blood. The odor common to
the insects OF this family, serves to
protect those of them that live in
nests from being used for food by
the birds.
During summer, in one state,
to kill bed bugs, fired sixteen house
Five persons were burned badly and
four were burned to death, two of
them being children who were help
ing mamma.
Industrial Alcohol.
Every man who makes alcohol
from corn, wheat, or potatoes, must
pay the government tax of two dol
lars a gallon on it if it is to be
used in making whisky. If he asks
a government officer to put wood
alcohol in it, so it can't be used in
making anything to drink, he does
not have to pay the two dollars a
gallon. So this industrial" alcohol,
as it is called, can be sold for TWEEN
ty-five cents a gallon.
| When alcohol is made at that price
it will take the place of gasolene for
many uses and the loss of homes
and lives from gasolene explosions
will be very much less. One who
drinks industrial alcohol, dies or is
made blind by the wood alcohol in
| it.
Alcohol gives off vapor half as
fast as gasolene but it rises and is
