E. NKELLISH “VESTON 3rd Ave., Westmount Manager MILL STREET WASTE BAKES NM STEWS TOASTS Charles M. Teasdale. The deep sympathy of the town and community is extended to Mrs. Teas- dale and family, King; St. Weston in their sad bereavement of the past month. Early last week she received the news of the sudden death of her son Charles. who had succumbed to an attack of influenza while engaged in his professional duties as mining en- gineer at Flin-Flon Mine Northern Manitoba. Deceased was well known in Weston having spent several of his winter vacations with his mother. Four years ago he married and since then had spent the winter months in their city home. He is survived by his wire one little daughter. two years of age, his Mother, three brothers, John of Burlington, Frank ot Concord and George of Weston. Also one sister Miss Clara Teasdale, Weston. _ "Why, why/yes, half-way," replied his listener doubtfully. "But I don't see what you mean by the inside Wires trying to get more juice than they should have." "‘Why, sure," returned the elec- trician. "You see, it's this way: the fuse is a gate, you fnight say, through which the juice flows into your home. There's a gap between the wire that comes from the power house and the wire that. co,ntinues on into your home; and, to close that gap, the fuse is put in between. Now the‘fuse it made of a piece of soft metal that melts more easily than the other wires; this is so that, it, your inside wires try to get more juice than is safe for them to carry, the strip of metal in the fuse will melt, automatic- ally shutting out the electricity. Don't you see ?" "That's so-well, looks like I was too hasty when I jumped on you in the beginning," replied the mollified electrician. "But just you tell that husband‘of yours not to get fresh with your sentries any more, will you? "Indeed I will," she declared, and her eyes snapped with delight. "Just wait till he comes home--won't he be flabbergasted when he finds out I know something about electricity that he doesn't! Oh, Joy!” "Well," he went on,. "it can happen two ways. First if somewhere insula- tions wear form wiring like extension cords, and the wires come in contact with each other. That makes a short circuit; and if it'were not stopped, there might be a fire. But your fuse acts Just like magic; it sees too much juice rushing to the wires, and it says "Stand back," And, besides it calmly melts the only bridge over which cur- rent could come in. And here, you see, your husband's gone and put in another bridge; one that will not melt when a. dapgerous amount is passing; and he's dastroyed the safeguard en- tirely! "Another time the fuse would melt would be wheln too many current-con- suming appliances, like toasters or washing machines, were put on one circuit. You see there is more than one circuit in every home; and you must have your convenience outlets put in for serving these appliances so that they don't all get juice from the same circuit." "But I tell you my husband did it. And he read it in a "r----'-. But won't you explain why he shouldn't have done it? I have some sense, really I have.' Just try me." "Yes, I know that, that's why 1 bad you come," she said, "And then when it tells you there's something wrong somewhere, in plenty of time s0's ydu can get busy and hunt our the trouble and get it fixed up before anything serious happens, what do you do bpt-why, say, it the watchman outside your window bothered you hollering at night when you wanted to go to sleep, I 'spose you gag; him, would'nt you? Be just as logical as what you’ve done here!” "Now, it that isn't like a woman," exclaimed an exasperated electrician who had been summoned to inspect the wiring in a _-------- home last week. "Who ever in the world told you it was good sense to hire a watch- man to guard your home, and then tie his hands and feet and take away his gun and nightstick, so he couldn't shoot, beat on the pavement, run for help, or even wave his hand?" And he inspected with withering contempt a copper cent which he had just fished out from the socket from which he had unscrewed a fuse plug. "What, that penny?" said the wo- man, who desiring to spend a\newly- acquired legacy on a whole flock of peppy new-tangled dish-washers and electric tea-wagons and h'ouse-clean- ing contraptions so as to save time from housekeeping and get around and show the gorgeous new clothes similarly acquired, had summoned the expert to tell her whether her house wiring would carry the additional electrical load--"that penny? What do you call it a watchman tor? And anyway, I didn't nut it there. My hus- band did. He read it out of a scien- tific magazine." C "But, you said, “didn’t/you ,know there was something the matter with your wiring or your equipment some- where, when that happened? Listen, lady, and he held the fuse out in his hand dramatically, "this little fuse, if you’ll just give it a chance, will be the best friend you have. It is the zealous g'uard, the trustworthy, dependable, sleepless, vigilant sentry that stands between the power house that pumps out the electric juice and your home, making that juice abso-1ute-ly the safest form of light, heat, and energy known." Dangerous Practices "Let’s see it," demanded the elec- trician. And when he has been hind- ed a clipping with several semi-tech- nical pictures of "What to do_when a fuse burns out," he sniffed. "That's not a scientific magazine," he said. "It's a paper tor amateur mechanics. And if you'll read the thing through, you'll see that even the paper itself tells you it's dangerous practice, and yet it goes on and tells you how to do it.
