Protect Your Home!
Everybody fears fire and every effort
should be made to prevent them starting,
even more than to extinguish them after
they have started. A long as our homes
are built of lumber the is a certain amount
of danger from fire, both from within and
without. Therefore, any chemical prepa
ration that render lumber fire-proof is a
thing very much to be desired.
Such a preparation is now on the mar
ket and the public is invited to test its
merits. It is called Plutanica. It ren
ders all wood work fire-proof and at the
the same time acts on the pores of the wood
in such a manner as to preserve it indefi
nitely. It costs very little and is easily
applied to any wood work.
B. V. Reeves has the agency for Plu
tanica in this district. See him and have
a practical demonstration of the merits of
this preraration and get his figures for
applying it to your home.
Strayed or Stolen.
One brown yearling horse colt, slim
