the jurors no doubts as to the prop
er manner of discharging their du
ties to the commonwealth and will
be very helpful to them In reaching
an equitable conclusion in the many
cases to be brought before them.

tle town of Whites Vnlley, a half

to the scene only to find the fire be
yond control. The plate glass In the
door was quickly broken and sev
eral rushed to the Bleeping apart
ments and found them unoccupied.

What Class
are YOU In a
The world has always been divided into two classes those who have
saved, those who have spent the thrifty and tho extravagant.
It is the savers who have built tho houses, the mills, the bridges, the
railroads, tins ships and all the other great works which stand for man'p
advancement and happiness.
The spenders are slaves to the savers. It is the law of nature. We
want you to be a saver to open an account in our Savings Department
and be independent.

I This Bank will be pleased to receive all

tho Ranch," at tho Lyric Theatre,
building at nino o'clock. Between
twelve and one o'clock several pass
ed, returning from the party, with
out seeing any sign of fire or de
tecting the smell of smoke. At
twenty minutes of two the north
wing was a mass of flames beyond
control. Mr. nnd Mrs. Fisher were
staying that night nt the Allen
House, this city, and the little son
and daughter were with their grand
mother, Mrs. H. W. White. How
It originated is a great mystery as
there wns no fire in the house for
several hours before It burned. The
loss Is partially covered by Insur
ance. Dangerous Rubber Bands,
Elastic bands are tabooed In a cer
tain large office In New York city,
and employes are requested to dis
pense with the rubbers altogether or
to keep them with great circumspec
tion. The reason for the precaution is
that the bands are known to be
hardly less slippery than the dread
ed banana peel, with the same pro
penslty for causing severe falls, es
neclally In conjunction with the
oiled wood floors of modern build
Ings.
A valued woman employe of the
office In question had a severe fall
owing to one of these mischief mak
ers, which resulted in an Injury to
hips and spine which has Incapacitat
ed her for all active work for some
time to come, If, Indeed, it does not
prove permanently crippling.
Stoves In tho Shoes.
People who are troubled with cold
feet may take heart. In Germany
there has been patented a contriv
ance described as a "beatable shoo."
The heel Is hollowed out, and in
this hollow Is a receptacle for a
glowing substance similar to that
used In Japanese hand-warmers.
Between the soles, imbedded In as
bestos covers. Is a rubber bag which
Is filled with water.
The heating substance In the shoe
keeps the water warm, and It clrcu
lates while the wearer Is walking
thus Imparting a pleasant warmth
to the foot. A small safety-valve Is
provided, so that the bag cannot
burst.
The warmth given by the sole neV'
er rises above 70 degrees Fahren
belt and will last about eight hours.
It Is claimed that the sole Is not un
reasonably thick, being only slight
ly thicker than that of a wet-weather
shoe.
