Special attention is being called
by the fire marshal to chimney
flues at this time of year. An inves
tigation may be made ns a safe
guard. The net of running a stove
pipe through a celling or a partition
is especially hazardous, and flue
stops opposite a pipe leading into a
chimney is especially dangerous in
case of a flue burnout. Oitimes
these stops blow out and cause dis
astrous fires, caused by combustion
of gases in the chimney chamber.
