STARTLING EV^FNCE, Dramatic evidsa<i8 was given t L« ic .• tlx on Monday in the course of the inquest upon the body of the baby which was discover- <1 in ( an allotment, which had been held by a Great Northern Railway clerk named Frederick Beeton, who is now undergoing a, term of im- priao-nment for kidnapping a baby at Canning Tewn. The most important witness was a man who was undergoing a term of imprisonment, and who had come forward to give evidence. His name was not publicly disclosed. Frederick Beaton was in the same ward with liim. at f Wormwood Scrubbs. He asked Beeton what he was imprisoned for. Be-eton said he had stolen a child because he had lost one of his, which was illegitimate, and that its mother was a boarding-house keeper at Letchworth. He seemed very much worried. Some time later Becton said, "About the child. I did away with it, and buried it." Bect-on said he drowned the child, and was anxious to get out of prison as he had buried the child's body, and was afraid some one would find it. Beeton said he buried it in his Great Northern Railway allotment about an arm's length down, and that he had planted ItOWI cabbages OTer it. Beeton said that his tenancy of the allot- ment would expire in March, and he wondered if there were a chance of escaping fTom prison so as to get the body away. He told witness that he had "tolen the child in London so as to take it to the mother of the illegitimate child, and that, to hia surprise, he had been arrested. "I told him," went on witness, "that he was in a mess, and had better own up. He replied that he would get the body up, do away with it, and get another child. I was much dia- tressed at all this, and, having got permission to do so, I wrote to the police." Police evidence showed that as a result of information they dug the allotment and found the body of the child. A doctor said there was nothing inconsistent in the state of the child's body with accidental suffocation. The jury said that in the absence of a re- port of the analysis of the remains they thought there was insufficient evidence to es- tablish the cause of death. The inquest was accordingly adjourned for the analysis to be completed.

SANDWICH-MAN'S SAVINGS. With £3 8s. in silver in his pockets and two bank books showing deposits of nearly £60, an old man named De Lacy, dressed in rags and with no laces in hia boots, was charged at Westminster on Monday with beg- ging on Sunday outside Westminster Cathe- dral. One of the bank books was a Poet Office one, showing deposits of £ 28 10.. in his own name, and the other showed over E27 in the National Penny Bank. Accused, it was stated, declined to have p.ny tea or other refreshment on the ground ,that he could ill afford to pay for it, but the police that morning stopped 3d. for his break- fast to his evident chagrin. The officer who had taken him into custody deposed that the prisoner said that he had been twelve years a sandwich man paid at the rate of Is. 2d. a day, and that on the way to the station he said, "I've saved every farthing of it out of the Is. 2d. aday." The Prisoner: "I don't drink, and I save every halfpenny. It's my money! Mr. Francis advised prisoner not to be eron again about the catnedral, and ordered him to enter into his recognisances to be of good behaviour for six months.

| Gen. Baden Powell, when reviewing' the Boy Scouts of Leicestershire and Rutland at Leices- ■ ter, said the way our boys drifted into wage- i earners without learning a trade was recruit- < ing for unemployed. The wastrels here would be greater wastrels in the colonies.

"DID NOT LEARN HONESTY." "Education has been his downfall," was the plea put forward at the Clerkenwell Police- court on behalf of Thonraa Drew, aged sixteen, who was accused of stealing opera-glasses from Messrs. Gamage, by whom he was employed. Drew was a pupil at the Hugh Myddelton Council School, it was stated. He, wex a scholarship for four and a-half years at lJni- versity College, and finally passed the London University matriculation examination. He was out of work for somre time, but ob- tained a temporary place at Messrs. Gamnge's shop. There he received his board and 8s. a week, of which he gave 3s. mother. He had mixed with people of a better class, and was tempted to take these articles in order to buy finer clothes. "T have heard m:ny excuse* for dishonesty," said Mr. d'Emcourt, the magistrate. "I hare heard of ignorance, want of education, and large families as excuses, hut never before of a good education. Very poasibly there is some- in it. "Education is always partial. One cannot 1. -1. a -1. 1. f. ivniu CYViY \.oUHI, AppArvubi^ tuie uuj uiu uvu learn honesty." The magistrate, treating the case as one of illegal pawning, fined Drew P.3 and ordered him to pay, in addition, £1 18s. 6d. to the pawn- broker.

.P 11 .<? fTTTvHpR Finely powlered moistened C:J. f t:- To entirely remove corns brush the corns with a tiny brash dipped in turpentine. Be careful not to touch the surrounding skin. When cooking or baking, especially with a gas-stove, if a large oven-cloth is wrung out of warm water, and suspended above the oven, it will absorb all the greasy steam, and entirely prevent any disagreeable odour. Also, the kitchen walls and ceiling will last clean much langer. An egg that has been too lightly boiled may be put into the r,aucepan again even after the top has been taken off, if an ordi- nary pin be dropped into it in a conspicuous place, when it will be found that none of the egg has been lost. Care should be taken to remove the pin. When a knife-board is employed in lieu of any of the patent machines which represent so much saving of labour, it should always be warmed before the f :e before it is used. This has the effect of considerably hastening the operation of polishing the kniT, IRONING FACED CLOTH. in ironing a dress of faced cloth, two important poinfs should be borne in mind. One of these is the fact that pressing on the right side would ruin the shine of the mate- rial, and the skirt should always be reversed beforehand. The other point to remember is that in ironing, Ii"; in cutting out, the fabric must be examined in order to see that the point of the iron runs in the same direction as the nap of the cloth. If this is not done, the most careful ironing cannot but result in a patchy, streaked appearance. TRUB MANLINHSS. Teach yqur boy to be true to his word and work; to face all difficulties with courage and cheerfulness; to form no friendships that can bring him into degrading associations; to respect other people's convictions; to reverence womanhood; to live a clean life in thought and word as well as in deed; that true manliness always commands success; that the best things in life are not those that can be bought with money; that to command he must first learn to obey; that there can be no compromise between honesty and dis- honesty. CLEANING WATSR-BOTTLKS. Water-bottles, decanters, etc., if not cleaned out frequently are very difficult to keep nice. You will find that a raw potato, cut into small pieces and put into the vessel with equal parts of vinegar and water, and shaken about for a few minutes, will cleanse the glass better than anything else. Especi- ally is this treatment valuable where hard water has been kept in glass jugs, as it re- moves every trace of the brown deposit which is one of the distinguishing properties in hard water. ECONOMICAL. I In sending a dress to be dyed or cleaned, oversew the rough edges of the material, and it will not draw or strain. A rusty black felt hat may have its colour restored by sponging it well with cold tea, which has been strongly infused. A pretty screen for an empty grate is made by a bright Japanese fan of the largest size, costing between sixpence and a shilling. Blacking bottles, Aspinalled or painted v.-ith bronze paint, make artistic- 1 looking jars for holding pampas-grass, pea- cocks leathers, etc. PERFECT CONFIDNNCX IMPOBTAWW. I When a mother and daughter stand on proper terms with each other there is a firm friendship underlying the natural love. The mother, with the memory of her own girlhood days in her mind, is not too severe on the mistakes that the young daughter is sure to make. And the daughter, sure of a ready sympathy and comprehension, is not afraid to confide in her mother. The same rule ap- plies with father and son. Perfect confidence between father and. son is quite as important i as it is between mother and daughter, and the experience of the parents ean often save the young people from many mistakes.
