a miming match, torch or open flame of nuy description should never be employed for this purpose. To wrap the pipes with oil-soaked rags and set thorn on flro Is worse limn folly, It is incendalrism. Pipes are almost Invariably adjacent to walls or partitions where thcro 1b an ascending current of air 10 leou ana spread a flaino. Even if tho (lamo does not start a fire Its sudden local heat may cause the pipe to break and flood the promises with water. Recommendation.

Wrap tho frozen section of the pTpo with cotton cloth and pour hot water upon It (evou If tho hot water must bo obtained from a neighbor) uutll the ice In tho pipe gives way. Rags on the floor at tbo base of or under tho pipe will absorb the waste water. If tho freezing Is too severe to yiold to this treatment send tot a plumber. Reputable plumbers always avoid running water pipes along outBlde walls whero It la possible to do bo. Property owners when building should look out for this.

It may some time buvo money and vexation. i DEATH OF ANDREW (UHNAHAN.
