FURMACI UNBREAKABLE FiRE-POT The lower portion of a fire -pot is usually nearly or partly filled with dead ashes, leaving the live, red-hot coals in the upper part. The result is that the upper portion expands much more than the lower. This uneven expansion causes g strain 116, too great for a one-piece fire -pot to stand. Sooner or later it will split, allowing precious heat and sickening gases to escape. But the fire -pot of the Sunshine R.1 is constructed to meet this con•_•dition. It is in two sections. The upper half expands, as much as necessary, independently of the � lower. When cool, it contracts . back to its original size, fitting to the lower half perfectly. /� And this strong, unbreakable, J gas and heat -tight, two-piece fire -pot is just one of the many • 0 super tor featuresof the Sunshine. if your local dealer does not handle the " Sunshine," write direct to us for FREE BOtIRLET.

Some eighteen inches below the surface the skeleton of a man presumably an Indian was found. At the time of burial, a very small bole had evidently been dug and the body chucked in, as the remains were in an upright posi- tion with the knees drawn up to the chin. No solution of the tnystery can be given, further than that it is thought to have been an Indian, as the farm has belonged to Mr. Bice for the past flfty years and he was unaware of any burial having been made on it. —The farmers of this district, who a few weeks ago had nothing but dismal tales to tell of the crop prospects, are now wearing broad ensiles and acknow-, ledging that there is little to "kick about.
