HOW TO USE KINDLING WOOD. Those Born to Wealth and Those Who Very Little Really Necessary Have Sufficient. Starting the Fire. There are really only two classes of happy people on' earth the people who work hard for thelf simple needs, and the people who are educated from birth to enjoy their wealth and the leisure which It brings. The middle class is eternally regretting either the, days of happy poverty or the unattained days of enjoyable leisure. The daughter of a cannot be happy In the lonely drudgery of a cottage, and the daughter of poor folk, who has struggled all her life and who has never had the advantages to fit her for a life of leisure can never be happy In a gilded parlor where she has nothing to do but fold her bands. She does not know the game well enough to even reverse the twirling of her idle thumbs. There is nothing more pathetic In all the world than the hard working business man who has retired upon a fortune which he grows to hate because of the inactivity which It enforces unless It be his wife, who suddenly finds all of her share of life In the care of servants and has nothing with which to replace 1L multi-millionai- Box Parties Manners.

In the 80s, When In all the great United States then is a cry for kindling wood. No housefire can keeper seems to think that be started without burning up all the wood in sight and buying still some more "just to keep It going. In reality, kindling Is not absolutely necessary In lighting a fire, and when It Is used, only three small pieces are required, which should be arranged like the rails of a fence, leaving plenty of space for air to create a draught. Extravagance in kindling wood is a rather serious matter nowadays, for wood Is growing scarcer and scarcer. Fire lighting is an art, and the only needful thing to know ia that a full draught must be created, which means that the wood should be quite small and that it should not be placed closely. By economizing In kindling, an Item of no mean importance In tbe household, the fuel account may be reduced by half, and surely that Is worth trying. CALLS HIMSELF MAN OF PEACE. John D.
