what Blue Flame Means.

A steady blue flame indicates perfect
combustion Of gas, full heat and no
waste, says the editor Of Gas Logic
(New York;. It shows that the
proportion Of air and gas fed to the
burners is such that every bit Of heat
In the gas is being developed. A yell
low flame indicates that part OF
the gas Is not being consumed and IL
therefore being wasted.

cations of the disease. The railroad
company provided both with transpor-
tation to Denver and paid his full sal
airy for three months.
At first herseemed to improve but
isoon the doctors told Mrs. Durham
that life was matter of a few
months. He died there last Thursday
A short funeral service was held at
the cemetery where the body was
immediately taken from the train. 1t
was conducted by Rev. L. B. Grant
ford Of the Baptist church.
Many friends were at the station to
meet Mrs. Durham on, her arrival and

floral offerings.
