Fires From Carelessnes. As a senslblo contribution to tho lit-craturo lit-craturo of tho cigarette as a Btartor of llre, big and little, let us recommend the following, from tho Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin: "Tho announco-men announco-men that a recent 1700,000 flro was duo to tho dropping of a cigarette Into a rubbish heap Is not so aevero a condemnation con-demnation of tho despised 'collln-nair as of tho man who smoked It." It Is qulto likely that tbo man who Is caro-lesB caro-lesB enough to drop a lighted clg aretto where it may causo a fire would bo careless enough in somo other respect re-spect to causo a flro or somo other damage.
