That would bo foolish indeed' Don't timst the cfanV y coal stove ui the curious tin burner, neither o' which wanted to burn the fuel whih you were up. After you go to sleep the wood or coal will catch up an< make the greatest heat you ever sa\ "citing your house afire, and yo\ will wake up to find a town fire do partment on top of you with all thing tank-full of water, even if you really get that blessing.
