You may lose everything from a nearby fire's spark on an Inflammable roof, or water may lind Ks way through a leaking roof, and spread ruin lu a less ex iting way. All the old forms of roofing are nil of dangers. Wood shingles quickly catch lire, and when they are wet they begin to decay, then they curl and split between Hines. Plates weigh the roof so heavily that they menace the structure, and when it's very hot or very cold they crack and fall off-especially so In the case of a neighboring lire. Tar and felt roofing is merely high-priced fuel. Pl?ltl tin lacks beauty of appearance and has other defects too well known and too numerous to be men tioned here. Hut there : a form or roofing that unites all the good qualities of all other kinds of roofing without a single one of the objections that can bo raised to each of them. This roofing is made of tin. but made in the form of shingles and slates, giv ing homogeneity of lin with Its lire proof and waterproof qualities, yet fastened on like shingles without sol. der, with fewer nails and willi less effort in lifting. This model rooting ls called Cortrlght Metal Shingles, and like tin ls readily fitted on and about any slope roof, having a work ability preferable to tin because of its patented construction.

Prince Edward Albert, oldest of King George's six children, who now becomes Prince of Wales and Heir Apparent to the British throne, will be Hi years old next month. Two years ago ho entered Osborn College, and immediately became popular with his classmates. One of these was heard to describe the royal pupil ?is "a good fellow, who doesn't put on any side even if he is a prince." The prince is not a bril liant scholar, but a hard worker. His special hobby is pet animals, and he lias enough ol' them to make a me nage ric. The importance of Iiis place in Hie machine of slate lias now become much magnified by the death of Hie King, which Illings him one step nearer the Iii rone. H n less present plans are changed, the prince will bo a sailor, the intention heine; to send liim to sea in Hie training ship Bri tannia. His only sister is tia? Princess Vic toria Alexandra, who is now thir teen years 'dd. Allier! Frederick, the second boy, is I I, and studies at home with his sister and younger brothers. He is more grave in temperament and is more quiet than Prince Edward, but, like him, lie loves animals and out door sports. Albert and the princess are inseparable companions, and al though Edward still occupies the im port ant position of big brother in tho family, his absence at school has raised AMiert lo thal rank, except at holiday Hine. Henry William, the third boy, is Hi years old. The next in age is George Edward, now s. His chief amusement is In sailing toy boats.

Dean's Kidney Tills Have Done Great Service for People Who Work in Walhalla. Most Walhalla people work every day in some strained, unnatural posi tion- bending constantly over a desk -riding on jolting wagons or cars doing laborious housework; lifting, reaching or pulling, or trying the back In a hundred and one other ways. All these strains tend to wear, weaken and injure the kidneys until they fall behind In their work of in tering the poisons from the blood. Doan's Kidney Dills cure sick kid neys, put new strength in bad backs. Walhalla cures prove it. J. R. Hughes, Faculty Hill, Wal halla, S. C., says: "I have been a locomotive engineer for many years and the jolting of the engine weak ened my kidneys. I had a pain across the small of my back and at times lt extended into my shoulders. Sev eral years ago I began using Doan's Kidney Pills when I was suffering from one of these attacks, and lt was not long before 1 was free from the trouble. I procured this remedy at Dr. J. W. Bell's drug store, and lt did not require more than a few doses to give me relief. 1 do not think there ls another preparation for kidney trouble equal to Doan's Kidney Pills."

According to statistics compiled by the government, lt would seem that life on the farm is a little safer than life in the city. It ls shown thal liv ing next to nature wards off disease and death, although probably a lit tle more conducive to suicide than living in cities. The principal factor in favor of the farmer is his freedom from tu berculosis, due undoubtedly to his out-door life, in 1908, for instance, in the eighteen States covered by the ligures, the white plague was respon sible for li?.M per cent of the total deaths, while only l.*>.r. per cent of the farmers who died thal year were victims of the disease. Even more marked was (ho dis parity in tile case of Bright's disease. Only U\-> per cent of the farmers' deaths resulted from it. while it claimed some S per cent of the total deaths. In the case of heart dis ease and penumonin, there was also a difference in the dent li rate favor ing the farmer. On the oilier hand, owing probably to insanitary condi tions on many farms, and without a doubt in many cases due to Improper location of water supply, typhoid fe ver claimed more victims among the farmers than among city folks. Can cer, too, made greater inroads among the farinerg than among tho city res idents, the ligures beting 5.820 per (..?nt and 4.9fi percent, respectively. The most startling fact arrived at, however, by the compilation, is thal far imus seem to have been more prone to suicide than other people, for :'..TJ."> per cent of their deaths were* self-inflicted, while 3.5 lier cent of the complete mortality list com prised deaths by suicide.
