Mink Saved the Auto.

A farmer named Richter, Of Mill
wood, in Westchester county, N. Y.
sacrificed a load of milk the Other
day to save a new touring car, in
which two women were riding, from
being destroyed by fire. The engine
of the car began to spit flames. Final
ly 1t took fire. The occupants ther
abandoned 1t for fear the gasoline
tank might explode. Richter came
driving along with several cans oi
milk. With him was his eighteen
year-old son. He alighted from the
wagon, and seizing ten-qlart car
filed with milk threw the contents
over the flames. The floor Of the Cal
was afire and burning briskly. He
saw he would have to waste severa
more cans of milk to save the auto
Come, hand me those cans quickly,
he said to his soI. He emptied then
over the auto as fast as he could. Th'
flames were checked. but not unit
nearly one hundred and fifty quarts
of milk had been sacrificed. Th'
owner Of the car asked him what tl
milk was worth. Richter fixed h
loss at seven dollars, Gut the LAD!

Attractive ways of furnishing and

endeavor should be to avoid the ap-
pearance of newness and unused

read in It without injuring the eyes
In the older apartments and houses
where there are only the middle lights
in the room, the only way OF solving
this difficulty is by the use OF table
lamps. These should be selected IN
view of their usefulness, as well az
their decorative merit. Good looking
and practical lamps are made for ootn

staying at home primarily. But II the
interest-the invitation-is lacking

The living room is the one place in the

effect the appearance Of home may
