Mackay, printers, in London, in th» King's Bench, on Monday, for damages for libel in a pamphlet entitled, ''The sanctity of marriage and conflict of sex," written by Mrs. Georgina Weldon and printed by the defendant. Mrs. Mackay admitted the. libel and pub- lication, and pleaded that she had published an apology. Mr. Infield said his wife became ac- quainted with Mrs. Weldon, and subse- quently there was domestic unhappine-ss, and eventually a separation, and in 1908 Mrs. Weldon's pamphlet was circulated in Brighton. Mr. Infield complained that it falsely accused him of ill-treating and de- serting his wife, and of secret drinking. He said that every allegation was un true. The defendant did not attempt to justify any part of the pamphlet. Mrs. Weldon was not sued, although she had attempted to get herself made a defendant. After a consultation, counsel for the de- fendant made an unqualified apology, re- gretting that the pamphlet was published. and stating there was not a word of triith in the charges. A verdict Was given for the plaintiff for an amount agreed upon between the parti to cover damages and costs.

"Married three couples." "That makes only six." "Well, do you think I did it for nothing?" A big motor-car had just passed, and two small urchins were staring after it. What does f I.

Jones: "Why, you, see, I am Eng- lish, ray wife is Irish, the nurse ia Scotch, and the baby wnils." A diner in a restaurant sighed heavily in the hearing of a waiter. "Anything wrong, •ir?" queried the attendant. "Not nine]-, was the reply. "I was only wondering whether I should live to be as old as this chicken Dobson: "There goes Figgers, the expert accountant.

A restaurant-keeper noticed that some of his customers annexed the current day's papers for an irritatingly long time. He hit on this little piece of sarcasm. Prominently displayed on the walls was the announce- ment: "Those learning to read are re- quested to use yesterday's newspapers." First Burglar: "Hark! I hear someone I talking."

Two youngsters were observed a few weeks ago earnestly gazing at a magnificent statue which had recently been erected. A gentle- man who is a lover of art stopped close by in order that he might observe what effect so fine a specimen of the sculptor's art would have upqn the rising generation. He had not long to wait. After gazing with raptur- ous eyes for two or three minutes, the young- sters walked slowly away, and one of them said with a sigh: "I wonder if that police- man over there would see us if we was to throw mud at it?" "Tickets," said the collector, as he opened the door of a carriage in which sat a man who looked as if he was anchored to his seat. The man handed over the required paste- board, which was duly inspected. Then, looking round, the collector said: "Is there another gentleman in the carriage?" "No." Is that other portmanteau yours then, too?" "Other portmanteau?" "Yes; on the floor there by the other." "Those," said the traveller, with dignity, "are iny feet." A countrymen, while sauntering along a City street, saw a sign, "Please ring the bell for the caretaker." 'After reflecting for a few minutes he walked up and gave the bell buch a pull that it nearly came out by the roots. In a few moments an angry-faced man opened the door. "Are you the care- talker?" asked the bell-puller. "Yes; what do you want?" "I saw that notice, so I rang the bell, and now I want to know why you can't ring the bell yourself." When Governor Head was in office in New Hampshire, Colonel Barrett, of the Go- vernor's staff, died, and there was an un- eceIIllyscramble for the office even while his body was awaiting buriat with military honours. One candidate ventured to call upon Governor Head. "Governor," he asked, "do you think you would have any bjections if I was to get into Colonel Bar- rett's place?" The answer came promptly: "No; I don't think I should have any objec- tion, if the undertaker is willing. A boy was holding a lighted candle for his master, a plumber, who was engaged upon some repairs on a water-pipe in a dwelling- house. The boy, being a little careless, put the candle too near his master's head, and up went his hair in a blaze. The master turned round in a rage, and after inflicting punishment upon his apprentice, said: "You stupid ediot, can ye no' watch what ye're daein'? The fowk of the hoose '11 think we he been singeing a sheep's head wi' the smell we're settin' up." "Aweel," returned the boy, sukily, "they'll mebbe no' be far wrang."

Coarse salt sprinkled occasionally on iN floor before sweeping is said to be a good preventive of moths.

In washing dishes, begin with, the glasses^ cups and saucers, and other similar articles, reserving till the laet those which have beett used for greasy food. Soda-water, which is an exceptionally good cleanser for most kitchen wear, should never be used on aluminium utensils, or they will speedily lose their bright look. Wear sufficient clothing. Remember that flannel underwear often saves a doctor's bill, and that warm stockings and weather-proof boote are cheaper luxuries than bottles of cough mixture. When preparing the vinegar for pickled cabbage add a small piece of washing soda, the size of a nut, to every gallon of vinegar, before boiling the spice. This will keep the cabbage crisp for a year or more. To clean patent leather and prevent ft from cracking, take French harness paste used by saddlers.

Boil steadily in a well- greased mould for three hours. Serve with sweet melted butter sauce. A simple but effective means of preventing the juice from running out of fruit pies is to I insert a funnel-shaped piece of white paper in an opening made in the centre of the top crust, through which the steam will escape. ¡ A Dainty Dish.—Make a stuffing of som# 11 breadcrumbs and half the quantity of the latter of suet, some parsely, a little grated lemon peel, pepper and salt.
