Democratic Sentinel, Volume 16, Number 6, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 26 February 1892 — Consumption of Smoke. [ARTICLE]

Consumption of Smoke.

The following simple method for the consumption of smoke is given by a German paper: Start the fire ns usual and let it burn until the coals are in a bright glow; then rake the coals on the grate to the right and left, so as,to form an empty space along the middle, and put the fresh coals into this space. The smoke which is formed from the fresh coals is consumed by the glowing fires on either side. If the grate is very wide two such open spaces in the fire are advantageous for the addition of fresh fuel.

Wide, soft French felts, twisted and pinched into becoming, fetching shapes, are even more worn than the regular shaped hats. More peopio can be suited wjth these, os they are pliable and can be mudo to look becomingly on most anyone.
