• Country Aroused.
"Wo are all afire. Send us some
help!" was the message that traveled
over the snow fields of Webster township this morniDg to the Webster exchange office of the MicLigan State
Telephone Co., making the operator's
hair raise in horror.
Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Alexander and
Bye little children were prisoners in a
burning house, in a snowbound district. Then miiybe the wires did not
work. Burning-messages most certainly hurried over the lines to the
homes of the farmers. It is said thai
on party lines many country residents
take down their receiver when the
bell rings and enjoy the talk over the
wires. Whoever had their receiver
down at 7 a. m. today received a
shock. Tbe nearest neighbor to tho
Alexander home lives about 40" r,ods
away. Homes miles away caught the
intelligence from the many calls sent
out from the central office and a funny
sijjht followed. A team i.ould not
travel. A man had to, to help another
man in trouble, and from all directions
came snowy figures to help put out
the fire. j
Luckily it was easily conquered and
the damage was not extensive. Mrs.
Alexander had been drying sonit'
stockings by the fire and it is supposed
that a smouldering fire in a'sock start-"
ed all the trouble. A telephone looks
like a good investment to a Webster
farmer today. Edwin Ball is in
charge of the exchange and Mrs. Ball
was the operator who took the startling morning message.—News-Ar*^ us.

The Jumping Off Place.
"Consumption had me in its grasp:
and I had almost reached the* "jumping
off place when I was advised to try
Dr. Sing's New Discovery: and I want
to say" right now, it saved my life.

botlle;*.ari<J*artei' taking-one dozen bottles I was a well and happy man
again," says George Moore of Grimes-

To Cook Bacon.
The breakfast bacon may be broiled
over a dull fire, but -with a loss of fat
which is of value. To avoid this waste
the cooking may be done in the oven.
Lay the bacon, cut in very thin slices,
on the wires of a double broiler, close
the broiler and set it into a moderate oven over a .dripping pan. Let
cook until the bacon is delicately
browned and crisp, then serve at once.
This is oue of the simplest and best
ways of cooking bacon. That the bacon
cook evenly it.niust be sliced evenly.
Lay the strip skin side down, on a
meat hoard, then with a strong, sharp,
thin-bladed' knife cut in slices as thin
as possible, one after another, do-\\;n to
•the rind; then run the knife between
the,-slices.and:the risd, thus detaching
them. all. jo_gether. . Store "the strip" in
a cool,..dry place, .that it rnay not
"mould and, also, tliat it may be.- sliced
more'" readily.

Fences The Best Because
1. Stays are Electrically Welded to the strands forming a perfect union
and au amalgamation with the strands not found in any other feuce.
2. All stay wires are made as heavy as intermediato line wives. A
fence, like a chain, is only.as strong as the lightest material in it. Think
this over carefully.
8.   "No wraps to get loose, to hold moisture aud cause rust.
4.   No projections to injure stock or tear wool from sheep,
o.    Stronger at the joints than any other fence.     Welded together with
electricity.
6.   Guaranteed that the wire is not injured at the joints.
Guaranteed adjustable to uneven ground.
Guaranteed that stays will not separate from joints.
Guaranteed all right in every particular.
Made by tho most modern process and on the latest improved, machinery.
11. Most of tho weak points in other fences aro ou account of the 'vay
the stays are fastened, - *
Our stays are amatgatnatdd with the strands by means of electricity  aud
the strength of the fence increased a hundredfold over  the  strength'of a
fenco where the stays are wrapped or clamped on tho strands.
. You may pay moro money for other fences but you cannot get-as good a
fence &S "Pittsburgh Perfect."
