should be used as garage, never a
building, any part of which is used for
public meetings.
2. The floors should be of cement.
B. Allow no flame, fire or fire heat,
stove, boiler, furnaces forge or torch
in the garage. Heat with steam.
Use electric, incandescent lights,
protected by wire basket guard, never
lamps, candles, lanterns or othenop
lights.
5. Store all gasoline in an approx
cd Underground INK, equipped With
standard pump Never keep gasoline
in open vessels, nor allow gasoline to
run or drip on the floor nor into the
drainage system.
6. Use approved safety cans or ap-
proved portable tank in transferring
gasoline to machine.
, I. Make sure that the gasoline tank
the machine is free from leak and
that the caps are secure.
s. Provide standard metal waste
cans on each floor, especially near the
work bench, for oily waste. Destroy
this waste each evening.
8, Allow no shavings, refuse or
waste to accumulate.

preventable. The rules and cautions
found above, if strictly observed, will
prevent most of these fires.

SPECIAL SESSION OF CO. BOARD.

Last Friday the necessary number of
signatures to the petition for the call
ing of a special session of the county
board were obtained and the board
will meet tomorrow to again consider
the question of taking advantage of
the provisions of the state highway
law and procuring for use on the roads
within the county the money required
by this law to be raised for highway
purposes. Last year this county was
compelled BY the provisions of this act
to contribute over $1,000 as its share Of
the state fund, and because the county
had not chosen to take advantage of
the provisions of the law in building
or repairing any of its highways, all of
this money went to other counties.
During the present year six towns -
Cato, Gibson, Kossuth, Liberty, Two
Rivers and Two Greeks have raised a
total sum of $3.50 to be used within
these towns for building roads. Under
the provisions OF the road law the
county is required to raise its proper
tion of the funds and then the state
contributes an equal amount, so that in
case the board at its meeting tomorrow
decides to take advantage of the law
practically all of the money required
to be raised in this county will be re-
tained here for use on local highways.
The call for the meeting is signed 10y
the following members of the board:
Chris. Muth, G. w. Sweeting, Mic
Trossen, w. f. Brandt, George Pfef1er,
Adolph Strouf, Jos. Willott, A. e.

The agitation by the city admins
tration for lower telephone rates
brought j. Il. Qunlan, district ma
nager of the Wisconsin Telephone Co.,
to the city Tuesday. Mr.. Quinlan
stated during his visit that the Rail-
road commission had passed on ques-
tions similar to those involved in the
local situation three years ago in de-
Gliding an application for lower rates
filed by the city of Marinette, and it
was then held that the rates in force
in Marinette, which were the same as
those now in force in Manitowoc, were
reasonable.

Hurt of unkind Worda.

Unlind words are sharper than
swords. If you cut your finger there
Is but temporary pain. II your heart
IS hurt with sarcasm or brutal speech
the suffering continues as long as your
memory is working Since we all
know the agony of injured feelings 1t
certainly behooves all OF us to he
sparing with singing conversation.
As one grows wiser and older one
pays little heed to what others say.
jnkind things then apparently don't
have the power to hurt, The older,
wiser ones just twirl their thumbs and
smile. II Is n great relief when ono
gets to that point Of perfect tranquil
lity.

Relief From influenza.

Influenza, as is believed by the ma
iority Of medical men at present, Is
caused by microbe which Is pres
ent In the atmosphere, when the epi-
demic Is raging. The surest safeguard
against disease arising from mi
crobe is to use antiseptcs; of these
carbollc acid and eucalyptus oil have
been found of most use for the preven-
ton and cure of influenza. The best
way Of, using these Is in the form Of a
smelling.bottle containing. in addition
to carbolic and eucalyptus. camphor.
charcoal and ammonia.

Thomas Finch CT Liberty died last
week. He was one of the early set
tiers of the county, and man in every
way deserving of the high esteem in
which all his neigbbors held him.
Thoroughly honorable in all his deal
ings quiet, unobtrusiye man, he
lived without blame and in his old age
enjoyed that respect which is due Il
good man. He was the father Of j. w.
Finch a man quite well known in this
county.
Roger White OF Newton died lately
after a long period OF sickness. Some
years ago he suffered from a paralytic
stroke from which he never fully re-
covered. lie was one of the early set
tiers of that section and very indus
trious ana conscientious man.
Kress is violating all the time honor
ed principles of an impocunious pro.
fesson. His latest onslaught is the
purchase Of horse. The local editor
who can afford to keep horse is out
of place.
1t is to he hoped Milwaukee will
never again have visit from Presi-
dent. The whole affair seems to be a
constant turmoil. Why couldn't Cleve-
land have come to Oshkosh? He could
leave his wife in the parlor of some
hotel and 20 out and learn more about
mixed drinks than he ever knew be-
fore, and there would be no trouble
about committees. All Grover would
need to say is "What'll you have?"
and this touch of nature would make
him kin to every man in Oshkosh.

returned home and is using crutches,
having received bullet in the leg at
the battle near Gainesville, Va. His
wound is not dangerous, and he will

killed; Joseph Helms, wounded slight
ly: Christian Lemke, wounded slightly.
The new vessel being built by
Messrs. Rand for Platt & Villas is now

as ship builders. She will he command

best seamen on the Lakes. We wish
him and his splendid vessel fair winds
and prosperous voyages.
EXEMPTIONS FROM DRAFT.-Com-
missioner Villas has been attending to
his duties the past week, and many
people from town and country have

from draft.

one takes place.
