EVEN THE UNDERTAkER.

~ s'fS StNSSN SNFN1hs
A certain temperance lecturer at one
point In his address is in the habit of
taking out his gold watch and say
ing. 81 will give this watch to any
one present who will arise and tell
me one class OF people in the world
that has ever been benefited by the
saloon"
He made that offer all over this
country, and no one ever took 1t up,
until one gentleman stood and said:
Il think / can tell you one class"
Whats that?"
THE undertaken
My friend was about to unchain his
watch and hand 1t over, when an old
man arose and said: Hold on! Be-
fore you give away that watch allow
me to say that have been the under
taker in this community for 35 years,
and / have buried great many of that
kind Of people; but whenever l am
called upon to lay away an old soak
or any member of his family l al
ways know it's a charity job; that !
shall never get the money. l should
be much better of today IL had never
had to bury one such CASE"

Fire Fighting in the Home.

The State Fire Marshall of Kansas
recently issued the following rules for
fighting fire in the homes:
The first thing to get is the ladder,
so one can quickly carry water up to
put upon the fire started in thejshingles
of the roof by sparks. A ladder is need
ed at the country schoolhouse too, for
nearly all fires in these houses start in
the roof or in the attic, and a ladder
must be used to get into the attic with
water. II is also good plan to have
bucket of water or fire extinguisher
always ready for use in the attic.
In farm house kitchens there should
always be bucket kept fnll of water
ready for use for putting out starting
fire. In winter salt is put inio the wat
er in the fire bucket SO that it cannot
freeze. Fires resulting from grease or
fat boiling over on the stove should
not have water thrown on them, as
that spreads the blaze. Use ashes,
baking soda, salt or flour to smother it.
The best thing in the house or store for
putting out fire is one OF the metal
tanks known as the carbonic acid gas
fire extingisher, one OF them holds two
buckets full of water, and is three times
as high as it is thick. At the top it has
a piece of hose yard long. From one
of them water is thrown by the force of
carbonic acid gas made in the can,
when it is turned upside down ready
for use. Water may be thrown through
the hose to the top of three story
house. This extinguisher is more valu
able inside the house where a stream
can be thrown on fire in many places
which cannot be reached with bucket
of water Water takes more heat away
from the burning material than any
other FLUID Or substance. Things other
than water used to put out fire, either
smother it by keeping air from it, or
make gas which pushes the air away.
If the blaze is just starting, pour water
on the material that is burning not at
the blaze. One bucket of water will
do more good if thrown on by the hand
full or with broom, than if dashed on
at once. Small fires may be smothered
out with a rubber blanket or beaten
out with a wet broom. Salt or sulphur
should be used to put out fires in the
stovepipe or chimney. A gasoline fire
can be put out by smothering it with
wet rags, wooden cloths, sand, ashes, or
flour. If water is used, put it on in
large quantities. A small amount
spreads the flame. Do not throw wat
er on flames which start from kerosene
oil, as this tends to spread the blaze.
Smother the flames with a carpet, quilt
or heavy clothing. Do not leave door
open when you run out to give an
alarm. If the doors and windows are
closed when the fire starts, one can get
the firemen in time to put it out while
il is only in one room.

Household Helps.

Boiling water will remove tea or
coffee stains and many fruit stains if
poured over them before any soap is
used.
A raw potato cut in half will clean
marks off black material. A black serge
garment can be made spotless and as
new, if washed in potato water.
If black cashmere aprons are wash
ed in cold water with little soap, then
rinsed in plain cold water and hung in
the air to dry, they will keep very
good color. Warm water will turn them
a rusty black.

A baby who could not get complete

An alarm clock that did not give a

A bed-bug that did not delight in dis

A collar button that did not prefer
the dark recesses under the bed to its
