CRY CAME FROM HIS HEART

Otis Skinner was recounting some
Of his experiences in "Kismet." not

stage play, in which he made such a
big success all over the country a few
years ago.
II remember when we played Gin
cinnati," he said, ''that we had trou-

tested 1t before the show and on this
night, instead of the slightly heated
water pouring through the pipes, 1t
was jets Of steam.
"We sent out and got all the ice we
could procure, but even so, when the
harem girls plunged in, they turned
red as beets. A little later, / was
called on to throw the grand vizier,
Mr.. Hamilton Revelle, into the pool.
"We had forgotten to tell him about
the temperature, and when he struck
the water he let out a yell that we
thought would break up the show. But
1t didn't and you can imagine our sur
prise next day when the critics COM

cutlery he made when I threw him to

GASOLINE TRAGEDIES

In spite of many warnings gasoline
continues to demand its victims. Five
deaths and thirteen injuries is the
1920 record Of this state.
The man who uses match to find
out whether there is plenty of gaso-
line in his auto tank, always finds
enough to explode. Looking into the
tank while smoking is also dangerous,
filling the tank while the motor IS
running is hazardous, as also is fill
ing the tank by the light of lantern,
light, or candle.
The combination of gasoline in open
vessels to clean auto parts, of fumes
ever present in a garage, and the in
veterate cigarette fiend annually
cause number of garage fires.
In these days of equality ladies will
not be outdone by mere man even IN
carlessness. They will wash silk
waists, ties and fabrics in gasoline
in an open dish. The mere rubbing
often will generate enough electricity
to cause an explosion. At other times
the stove fires or lamp flame will set
off the explosion.
Advertisements and magazine ar
ticles often advise mixing gasoline
with soaps, borax, ammonia, etc., for
cleaning cloths, fabrics, rugs, and
other things. A recent article adj
vises spraying closets with benzine to
get rid of moths, and mixing crude
oil and benzine for a "fine furniture
polish" all fool-killing advice. We
are hardly able to keep up with this
suicide advice, and combating it.
To soften the water and make
washing easier the good housewife
will put gasoline into boiler OF hot
water, often to her sorrow. Spraying
bedroom furniture with gasoline,
fortunately is not done as much as in
former years, one lesson learned at
the price of precious life.
To start or quicken a fire kerosene
is used, and the coroner's conclusion
often is "mistook gasoline for kero-
sene," not realizing that no such mis-
take is necessary, as kerosene Is
quite liable to explode if any fire or
live Goals are left in the fire pot. Five
deaths and eight injuries were report
ed in 1921 from this cause.
The use of benzine stove polish on
hot stove caused one death last
year.
Benzine and naptha are in the same
class as gasoline.
Gasoline should be defined as a pet
roleum product more powerful than
dynamite, as sure to explode as nitro
glycerine, as deadly as cyanide of pot
assium, as innocent looking as water,
never fool-proof or danger free; to
be stored underground and used out
doors.
A word of warning may save life,
perhaps a whole family, home, a
store or shop or factory.
BEWARE!

Relieving that the lure of the sea
might prove the winning appeal to
boys who resist the conventional
