TwTCO Lining of Chimney _ Is Important Item Defects in Furnace or in Flues Cause Many Fires at Residences. (By M. B.) There are comparatively few house owners, in this day and age, who do not carry fire insurance and, whereas it is a great comfort, after a more Or less destructive fire, to receive at least a proportion of the cost of making reâ€" pairs, still, there is no one, in such cireumstances, who would not prefer to have foregone the trouble, inconâ€" venience and expense of the conflagraâ€" tion if escape had been possible. Fires in the home are due to many causes but the greater proportion orâ€" iginate through defects either in the heating apparatus or in the flues. There are thousands of residential chimneys built each year of only half brick thickness. Such chimneys sOo erected, either through ignorance or inâ€" experience, using improperly made mortar, are a menace. Especially ars: they so since they are cleaned only at infrequent intervals by persons unâ€" accustomed to the work. A soot fire, in a chimnsy of this construction, will inevitably discover the poorly filled brick joint or the joint which has deâ€" teriorated and the result will be damâ€" age to the interior of the house from fire, smoke and water. A chimney fire may cause a fire on the roof eithsr of the owner‘s house or to that of his ieighbour, but irrespective of whether property damage is caused or not, a fire is an unpleasant experiâ€" ence.

Furthermore, vitrified wars, ‘jeing practically nonâ€"absorbant, will come to no harm when subject to the freezing and thawing cycles of Canaâ€" dian winters. Vitrified clay chimney linings add to the efficiercy of the chimney. They have a lower coâ€"efficient of friction than brick so there is less resistance to the flow of vapour and less liability for age is caused or not, @ i accumulation of soot.

Such linâ€" ings are made in a large range of sizes, and can be Obtained in round, square and rectangular shapes, and in length of 18 and 24 inches. The long lengths reduce to a minimum the number of joints in the chimney and the â€" fire hazard from ‘this source, is reduced accordingly. Vitrified clay linings can be grouped in a chimney to provide multiple flues where more than one sutlet to the atmosphere is necessary and, in such cases the cost of brick dividing walls can be saved, provided only that the joints between the lengths of the linings are staggered as between one flue and its neighbour. stoneâ€"like hardness.

(By M..â€"B.) Much can be done through the art of the interior decorator to remove the cramped atmosphere of small living rooms, and to give an air of spaciousâ€" ness to those of ordinary size, through arrangement of furniture and furnishâ€" ings and the judicious use of colour. oOone of the first rules of the art is to keep the centre of the room clear, with the heavier pieces of furniture and the rugs parallel or at right angles to the walls. Small pieces of furniture or round tables may be set across the corners. Attention should be paid in arrangement of furniture ing of pictures and other ments.
