ing bold-faced ads in the garb Of
confidential confessions of great new
scientific discoveries. He was skim
ming through it, making routine
of lifting the envelopes, withdraw
ing the contents, looking at them
blankly and dropping them into the
wastebasket.
1t was several minutes before he
was aware of the conversation going
on outside in the reception room.
He couldn't hear what was being
said, but he recognized the voices
of vi and Mrs. Smith. They
laughed from time to time and
seemed to be getting quite chummy.
He had just dropped the last let
ter in the basket when the outer
door closed and vi opened his door
and came in.
Gee, she's a nice little girl" vi
said. "She doesn't seem like the
type to be living the way she does.
That dress looks like it's just about
to fall apart"
"a tough case," Gale replied.
"Baby coming in a couple of months
and her husbands left her."
vi stared out the window, shak-
ing her head. I'D have murder in
my heart if a man did that to me,
but she seems absolutely thrilled
because he finally broke down and
sent her a few dollars"
"Hmmph," Gale began. He al
most blurted out the truth, about
his sending the girl that money,
then abruptly changed his mind. vi
would probably think he was crazy.
And she'd be right. "Well, I hope
he keeps it up long enough to see
her through"
"I wonder where she came from,
Gale. Did you ever ask her?"
mo, of course, not. None of my
business. and I certainly don't think
she'd enjoy talking about it,"
I'D like to find out. I'm going
to see if I can"
Gale looked at his wife sharply.
You mind your own business, vi,
and let other people mind theirsi
He didn't realize how that sounded
until he saw the sudden suspicion in
Wis eyes.

Blasting Cap Hazards
Stressed by Safety Group.

The Minnesota Safety Council ha!
begun a statewide campaign to reduce
accidents to children who come in con.
tact with blasting caps. This accident
! prevention work, according to the
Council, will be directed toward COM
plete elimination of such mishapS nc
matter where they might occur.
For this purpose the Council is con-
tacting all local safety councils so that
warnings may be given at all of their
meetings held in every community
! Folders which tell how these accidents
occur and how to avoid them are being
| distributed through schools and in
dustrial establishments.
In this work, the Minnesota Safety
Council is cooperating with the In
stitute of Makers of Explosives, a trade
| association composed of the leading
manufacturers of commercial explosives
in the United States, who are working
with safety organizations for the pur-
pose of reducing these accidents.
During the past three years, Min
neSota has had fifteen such accidents
involving sixteen children. Four of
these accidents were in 1887, five in
1888, and six in 1899. Last year such
accidents took place at International
Falls, Red Wing, Sterling, Willow River,
Maple Lake and near Motley.
The Minnesota Safety Council points
out that this state is a large user Of
explosives in quarrying, mining, stump
ing, ditching, road building, and other
operations. Blasting caps are absolute
ly necessary in the use of commercial
explosives 1t sometimes happens,
however, that after the blasting work
is done, the caps are left lying care
lessly about where children can get
them. The little ones throw them in
bonfireS, hammer them, pick at them
so that from time to time explosions
result. When one of these caps is
detonated, particles of metal fly in all
directions. 1t is possible to have fingers
blown off, limbs mangled, eye sight des-
troyed and other injuries which unfit
the child for useful work in later life.
About eighty-five per cent of the &C
cidentS occur in rural sections and the
Minnesota Safety Council wishes to
warn all parents and teachers to advise
children not to play with blasting caps.
If by chance they do find one or more,
they should Immediately notify some
responsible adult or an officer of the
law, so the danger can be removed.
