during the summer, and when fires are
started up in the fall, or they are put
TO severe test during the first very
cold weather, blaze is likely to re-

safety first have become national slo-
gans, the Importance of careful SUI
pervision of heating apparatus and
fiues should be recognized by every
good citizen, and thorough inspec-
ton should always preeede the first
use of heating apparatus.
There is special need of unusually
careful attention to fiues, smoke-pipes
and heating apparatus generally this
season, because of the abnormal fuel
conditions. Millions of householders
will be compelled TO use soft coal who
have heretofore used hard coal, and
the change viii necessarily introduce
many serious fire hazards, unless great
care is taken to see that flues and
smoke-pipes are kept clear and that
proper safeguards are provided for
the other dangers which viii develop.
Fires due to faulty furnace pipes
and smoke pipes have been unusually
numerous this season, especially where
there was dampness. Where the sur
face was already corroded by the heat
and fumes, the dampness soon rusted
the metal so that a pipe which looked
all right on the outside would col
lapse with the slightest strain. The

Consumption Can Be Prevented
Consumption is caused by taking
into the body, particularly into the
lungs, the very living germs that are
coughed up and spit out by consump-
tives. If the consumptive spits about
carelessly on floors or sidewalks, the
spit dries and is scattered in the dust.
To breathe this dust or TO eat food
solled with it causes consumption If
the consumptive destroys everything
he coughs up he will not spread dis
ease 10 others.
Don't give consumption TO others,
and don't let others give it to you.
Consumption is preventable. and it is
durable. Avoid patent medicines, and
quack doctors. See your doctor early,
and follow his advice. Good food. rest,
abundant fresh air night and day, and
sunlight help make the consumptiye
well.
Every person, including physicians,
who knows of a case of tuberculosis
is required to report the case at once
to the local health officer.
Anyone with tuberculosis of the
