HE DARKENED HIS
GRAY HAIR

Mr.. j. A. McCrea, we'll known

called Daddy and Grandpa on ac-
count of his white hair. and who
darkened it with a simple home

Here Is Tip on How to Keep Fireplace
In Action With Very Little Attention

Where a fireplace is available wood
can be used to good advantage, af-
fording both heat and ventilation, but
there is a secret about fireplace man
agement. 1t is not generally, known
that a wood fire can be kept burning
day and night in fireplace with very
little attention and with small con-
sumption of wood. The secret in
keeping wood from burning too rap
idly is a plentiful supply of ashes,
say foresters of the United States de-
partment of agriculture. One user
who adopted this plan reports contin-
uous use of a fireplace for over a
month, with dry chestnut wood,
where the amount of ashes formed
by months use was not enough to
require removal.
Ashes should be kept level with
the andiron, the foresters say. AS
the blocks burn, an accumulation OF
glowing charcoal forms in the ashes.
This keeps on burning slowly y1a and as Is
the andirons. A pocket may be
formed in the ashes into which the

Two hundred and eighty-two per-
sons were murdered in New York
City in 1913. The figures were made
public in the annual report of DR..
Charles Norris, chief medical exam
iner The murder figures are separ-
ate from those relating to persons
killed in the streets by automobiles,
street cars and other vehicles. Those
deaths totaled 1,128, while the citys
yearly toll of life by suicide was
placed by DR.. Norris at 751.
Of those who were killed, 165 were
shot to death, 80 were stabbed, 40
were victims of assault, / was burn

by illuminating gas. Strangulation
accounted for 2, infanticide for II

| hot charcoal may fall, forming a
heat storage. Two or three blocks on
the andirons with the hot charcoal in
the ashes will form an excellent fire.
To check the fire, ashes are SHOW
eled over one or more of the blocks
covering lightly all the burning wood
This will not put out the fire; it will
only check the rate of burning, so
that red charcoal will be found when
the ashes are removed for addition of
fresh fuel.
Fireplace wood is usually cut in
longer lengths than stove wood, but
the ordinary sixteen-inch stove length
is convenient. Any kind of wood can
be used. provided it is dry and sea-
soned.

twelve hours, and will send some heat

tenn in any residence. It's value is to

SIX MILLION
MOTOR VEHICLES
INUNITED ESTATES
One Million Were Bought
During 1918 and World
Peace Spells New Boom

Practically 100000 motor We
hicles were in use in the United
States by the first of the year, as
tration in the various states. The
actual total according to the latest
figures, was 5,945,442 vehicles.
On January 1, 1918, statistics
showed that this country had a trifle
less than 5000, 000-4, 941, 276, to be
exact-so that the increase during
the last year, despite the war con-
ditions, higher prices and the stor-
age of many cars, was 1,O04,176 We
hicles. This is in itself remarkable
indication of national economic
strength under many financial and
personal war burdens.
Automobile statistics have come
to be considered during recent years
somewhat like iron and steel reports,
and if closely studied they reveal
even more interesting facts than
these metaI1urgical statistics.
Automobile registration in the
United States during the war show
ed a gain, the rate of which rose
until 1916, and then decreased. An
unparalleled rise, in the cost of 1iv-
ing, together with a series of loans
more stupendous than anything ev-
err dreamed of in the history of fl
nance. explains why the rates of
increase fell after 1916. 1t is safe
to say that during the war very few
automobiles were acquired as mat
ter of luxury.
Eighteen States now show a regis
tration in excess of 100000. New
York still leads, the latest figures
from Secretary of State Hugo gov
ing the state total motor regis
tration of 463, 900. Ohio is a close
second, having passed the 100000
mark during the year.
Using the automobile registration
statistics as an Indicator of section
al wealth, it is interesting to note
that two agricultural states, Iowa
and Nebraska, have one motor We

And now for another phase of the case
The aunt made peculiar provision in her
will. AT the conclusion of the trust pro-
vision the instrument provided:
"And upon the decease of the said Hetty
Fl. Robinson, I direct and order the said
trustees and their successors in said Office
to pay over, distribute and divide the whole
of said residuary estate to and among
all the lineal descendants then living of
my grandfather, Gideon Rowland and if all
the lineal descendants aforesaid then living
are in the same degree of kindred to the
said Gideon Rowland, they shall share the
said estate equally and shall be paid in
cordng to the right of representation, and
the said trustees shall pay them respective
~ such portions shall according to the
right of representation belong to them"
1t is quite apparent from the reading of
this clause of the will that all of the de-
scendant. of Gideon Rowland would share
in the estate, but in what proportion be-
came the question. On this would depend
the method of distribution, at the time of
Hetty Green's death, of the 81 800 900 in
