a more suitable tlma. This rubbish
should not be burned on a windy day.
It should not be piled up near build-
ings and set on fire, and It should
not be left to smoulder through ihe
night. A few sparks of fire falling
on a dry roof are generally destruc-
tive. The better way to treat rub-
bish and refuse Is to dispose of them
promptly, without waiting for them
to accuniniulate^ This would n.ake
spring cleaning easier and lessen the
risk from fires.

tion can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear-

cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh

condition of the mucous surfaces.
