There is a family in Nehawka who felt the twinges of cold and did not think of the automatic heater, so put on an extra cover for the even ing, last week, and the mercury slip ped rapidly downward after they had retired and when they had gotten soundly asleep the point was reach ed when the furnace automatically lighted and away wer.t the spark and the heating plant wan in oper ation. After a short time the tem perature ros? ar.! the extra cover was kitked off ar.d also the lighter cover which had been u-;cd, and they began to get warmed and they had to turn on the electric fan and in that way they got through the night find after they had ariscm. it being terribly warm the Mrs. closed down the windows and drew the blinds to lretp out the heat when the husband chanced to pass near the register of the heating plant and thinking he felt waves of warm air coming from them extended his hand and touch ed the radiator and he drew it back fcV I quickly, as It was hot.
