someone was responsible. Too long have we
shrugged our shoulders when fire destroyed
home or factory, or RACED city block. 1t has
not entered our minds that some one may have
been personally responsible for the cause of the
fire If the blame for every preventible blaze
were fixed on the guilty one, and punishment
meted out in court, the number of fires would de-
crease by a perceptible number annually.
The social loss from fire is nestimable A
person may have his property insured, but seldom
is the insurance sufficient to pay for the entire
loss of the building or it's contents. Very few
homes carry insurance that covers every article
Of furniture or of equipment.
Every fire entails loss for which there is no
recompense. No one can restore the wood, steel,
iron and other materials that have been des-
troyed. They have disappeared. And the labor
which the housewife has put into the making Of
many household utensil, and the furnishings of
her home is irretrevably gone.
"Any plan that will tend to diminish the num-
Der of fires should be encouraged says the Ind
annapolis Star, "and the insurance men point to
the city of Cleveland, where such law as that
described is in operation, to prove its benefits.
The number Of fires has SO decreased, it is al
legged, that the city employs 226 fewer fire
men than were on the rolls previous to the enact
ment of the ordinance while the fire losses have
been cut more than so per cent In Cincinnati,
under the same regulation, there has been effect
ed saving in insurance premiums paid by the
people of $85O,00O.(
"a special effort has been made for several
years by insurance people to educate the public
to take greater precautions against fire, and
while this has no doubt had good effect, the ap-
plication of a penalty for carelessness that re-
suits in destructive fire is likely to be more
rapidly educative than any other method The
cost of the fire department of city is of it's
heaviest items of expense. To reduce it by re-
quiring the persons who heedlessly started the
fires to pay that cost would tend to the lowering
of taxes as we'll as to the protection of property
1t is method at least that deserves investiga-
tion.'

ly to draw them into your nose and

killing the germs before they spread

Hyomei inhaler is small and can be
conveniently carried in a handbag or

throughout the day take it out and
draw a few breaths of it's pure healing
air into your nose and throat. BY do
ing this you can prevent infection and

even though you are coming in direct

treatment as the Inhaler will last a

store for a few cents.
NOTE: Oil of Hyomei, so strongly
recommended above for the prevention

covery but is the application of an old

in the treatment of catarrh and colds
for over twenty years and is sold by
druggists everywhere. Hundreds Of
people in Richmond and vicinity keep

use it. If you haven't one, go to the

for his own sake, but for the commu-
nifty to do all in his power to prevent
further spread of this epidemic and to
stamp it out.-Advertisement.

Our Fire Loss

In an era when conservation is imperative, be-
cause of reduced production and extraordinary
demand, it behooves us to prevent the destruc-
doubly SO when it has been assembled into a
structure machine or commodity of any sort.
Our fire loss is stupendous. No country in
the world exceeds us in the number of fires and
the loss which follows. Other nations stand
aghast at our negligence and unconcern. It is
estimated that 81 per cent of the national waste
from fires is due to carelessness. Only IL per
preventible one.
Richmond has been exceedingly fortunate in
having had no big fires in recent years. Part of
this is due to the vigilance of the fire depart
1nent in making careful inspections, and part can
be attributed to the campaign of education which
has been waged here for many years against the
accumulation of combustible matter.
A bill has been introduced in the Massachu-
sets legislature, which would allow municipali-
ties to collect from individuals the cost of fight
ing fires when it has been proved that the fire
resulted from criminal neglect or carelessness
At first glance the provisions of the measure
seem harsh, but if one remembers that the per-
son who permits combustible matter to accumu-
late in places where a blaze may originate is in
viting loss not only to himself but also to his
landlord and neighbors, the measure becomes a
just and fair one
More than $4,000 persons were either burned
to death suffocated in fires last year. If 81
per cent of these blazes preventible, then
