to supply it. There is a iuiinel fastened
to the top of the taiik where the stuff is
let in, with a cork at the bottom. "The
girl failed to pull out the cork, the gasoline ran down tho sides, the blaze from
the jets ignited and in quicker time than
it takes to say it the whole room was a
mass of flame as was the littlo girl. She
rushed to the parlor where Johnny Lamb
came to the rescuo and the little girl' escaped with a badly burned hand and
arm. The fire was put but with a few
pails of wat'?r. Had not Mr. Lamb not
