kouse, two on the first floor and one each on the second and tnira uoors. They were of the type that emit a stream of chemical vapor when the container is held upside down, the vapor forming a blanket and preventing the admission of oxygen to the seat of the flames. When the fire broke out the country visitor and the maid reached the stand where one of the fire extinguishers hung at exactly the same moment. His first thought was to get the valuables out. The maid, of course, was on a different mission, for she had been trained in the use of these extinguishers. The maid mado a lunge for the extinguisher, seeing which the visitor gently pushed her aside and grabbed it himself. Out into the street the man ran, feeling important in this hour of bravery. No, sir, he wouldn't let those devasting flames wreck his brother's home. He was about to return to the house to rescue more of those pretty decorations when he was hailed. His brother and sister-in-law were returning home. nf, . , "What in tarnation are you doing with those fire extinguishers? queried tho city brother, his attitude and tone of voice indicating amazement. "There's a fire or something in the kitchen in there," the man remarked, anticipating a word of praise for acting so promptly in rescuing the valuable wall adornments.

(By CARL. E. LEE.) Most farmers would deliver a better grade of cream if they had a suitablo place for keeping it until it is delivered. No one should attempt to keep the cream in the cellar or in a large tank of water where the daily pumping is not sufficient to keep it cool. If a suitable place cannot he built in a well-constructed milkiouse tho following arrangement answers the purpose quite well-
