CORNWALL

Almost exactly at noon on Friday last an alarm of fire was sounded by voices and telephone from the store and post office of MT. Wilcox It is not known how the confagration started in the back room of the store as no one had entered it for an hour or two when smoke suddenly began to pour into the front part of the building and out of the door. MT. Calhoun's chemical engine speedily arrived and soon reduced the fire so that none was visible, but it broke out again and nothing succeeded in checking it as there were several bar rels of kerosene close by that quickly took fire and burned so furiously that buildings 200 feet away were hot to the touch. It was astonishing how many assembled and how quickly, and bring ing such variety of means for fighting the fire. There were fire extinguishers, pails, ropes, ladders, axes, crow bar. blankets, wash boilers, dish-pans, a force pump that did good service, and baskets filled with snow balls. Some of the young ladies gave material assistance. For long time it was thought the chapel was doomed and all it's contents were removed to distance. The build- ing formerly used for the library and later for girls school was also in dau- ger but both were saved-the chapel by an extremely close escape, due partly to slight change of wind and happy combination of other causes, besides con stant and strenuous exertion, to the limit of human endurance on the part of some. MT. Wilcox is said to have been moder- ateIy insured, about $2. 500 and is the l chief loser. The insurance of the chapel will more than cover the loss, which is mainly the charring or scorching of the whole south end so that all of that will have to be renewed. On Sunday morn. l ing there was still fire in the cellar of the store in spite of rain and snow and the safe had not been opened but MT. Wilcox had taken out the $500 worth of postage stamps and the post office records among the few things recued so that not much was left in itA Water was brought from the parsonage by hose attached to the village supply and by pails from the private pipe at Miss Kellogg's and scooped up in hollows where the heat melted the snow, but at times could not be used where needed because of the heat.

TO BE USED IN MODERATION
Garlic Too Strong a Seasoning Unless
the Utmost Care Is Employed
In the Cooking.

Garlic Is a Dubious plant formed
with a thin husk containing several
bulbs known as cloves. This condi-
ment is little appreciated by people Of
the north, who consider it rather as a
medicine than. an aliment.
Some have the firm conviction that
garlic is powerful preventative
against fevers and contagious dis
eases, but it is suspected that they
have invented this pretext to excuse
their immoderate liking for this terri
BILE condiment. A small crust OF
bread on which a Glove of garlic has
been rubbed Is sufficient to flavor the
contents of a large salad bowl. The
garlic genus comprises the plants
known as garlic, leek. onion. chives
and shallots.

"Oh. he's we'll enough in his way,

WRESTLING

Wrestling is one of the greatest
games in the world for developing the
shoulders and jaw muscles.

Those who say wrestlers never re.

Moths Do Not Like Green,

In the Woman's Home Companion a
contributors tells, as follows, how she
made an insect-proof bag:
Il put into common green cambria

the neck of the bag closely, and
packed it in my trunk. During win

clothing in my trunk suffered severely
from the ravages Of moths and other
insects. Apparently the green dye is
abhorrent to the insect tribe"

RICHES IN COMMON
Earth's Beauties for All Who
Can Enjoy Them.
Title Deeds Not an Absolute Requisite
When One Can Put Away Envy
That 10 Foolish and un-
worthy. tr

The habit OF feeling rich because you
have developed the faculty Of extract
ing wealth from everything you touch
Is riches, indeed. Why should we not
feel rich In all that our eyes can carry
away. no matter If others happen to
have the title deed? Why should I
not enjoy the beautiful gardens of the
wealthy and their grounds, just as II
owned them? AS pass by l can
make the wealth Of color my own. The
beauty of plants, and lawn, and flow
ers, and trees are all mine. The title
deed Of another does not cut off my
esthetic ownership. The best part Of
the farm. the landscape, the beauty
OF the brook, and the meadow, the
slope Of the valley, the song OF the
birds, the sunset, cannot be shut up
within any title deed: they belong 10
the eye that can carry them away. the
mind that can appreciate them. .
Did you ever realize, my poor COM
planning friend, how rich you really
are? You say you have no land, no
home Of your own; that you are only
j
OF what a lot Of pleasure envy robs
US! 1t is small soul that cannot
enjoy what he does not own, that goes
through life allowing envy to rob him.
We ought to be able to enjoy every
thing that is enjoyable. no matter
who owns it. How foolish to envy
others the things which We do not
happen to have or cannot afford. Al
ways learn to enjoy what you cannot
own. Be like the birds who do not
care who holds the title deed to the
lands where, in their migrations. they
joyously build their homes. ~
Did you ever stop to think how
small part of the community really
belongs to the individual? The Streets
the roads, are free; the parks are
yours; the public Libraries are AZ
much yours as the rich mans; the
schools are yours; the rivers, the
brooks, the mountains. the sunsets.
the marvellous mysteries and beauties
Of the heavens are yours. Mr.. Rookie
Teller cannot get more out of the sun
than you can, or from the beauty OF
the moon. The charms of nature, the
change of seasons, the joys the Crea-
tor has reflected everywhere, are
yours. The landscape belongs to you
Just as much as to the man who pays
the taxes on the land.-Trom 1.-THE
