PORTHCAWL BATHING. FA^LITY.…
PORTHCAWL BATHING. FA^LITY. INQUEST ON BLAENGARW BOY. The body of Thomas James Harries, aged 14 (son of Mr. and Mrs. James Harries, The Strand, Blaengarw), who was drowned' while bathing on Bank Holiday, was recovered from the sea on Friday morning by Mr. John, Evans, of Mardy, a visitor at Porthcawl, wno saw it being washed in by the sea near the point where the boy met his death. The police were informed, and the body was con- veyed to the town mortwary. THE INQUEST. Notification was immediately sent to Mr. Howell Cuthbertison, district coroner, who held an inquiry at the Police-station. Formal evidence of identification was given by Mr. Charles Sansom, licensee of the Queen's Hotel, Porthcawl, the boy's father not being present. The witness stated that he believed the boy to be 14 years of age. Evidence of the finding of the body having been given by John Evans, the Coroner said the circumstances of the case -were perfectly clea:r. It appeared that the boy was bathing when the tide was receding, which was a dan- gerous thing to do. There was no doubt that the point it which the lad bathed was none too safe, but the jury which investigated the circumstances of a similar case on the previ- ous day, had passed a rider calling upon the Porthcawl Council to place a warning notice board near by, and he would communicate that recommendation to the Council without delay. The jury returned a verdict of Accidental Death. The Foreman (Mr. W. Williams) said the jury desired him to express their sympathy with the parents of the unfortunate lad, an expression with which the Coroner said he de- sired to associate himself. I THE FUNERAL. The body was conveyed' to Blaengarw m the afternoon. The funeral, on Saturday, was largely attended, the school children, of the valley attending in large numbers. The Rev. ±J. M. Evans officiated, assisted by the Rev. W. A. Williams. Much sympathy was shown towards the sorrowing parents, and a good sum was collected to defray the expen- ses.
IYALE OF GLAMORGAN RAILWAY.I…
I YALE OF GLAMORGAN RAILWAY. I 4 RECORD TAKINGS. The thirty-first half-yearly meeting of the Vale of Glamorgan Railway Company was held on Friday at the Barry Railway Com- pany's offices, Barry Dock, the Chairman (Mr. E. L. Evan-Thomas) presiding. The directors present were M'r. Robert Forrest and Mr. T. R. Thompson. The proceedings I were of a formal character, and lasted only a few minutes. The report of the directors submitted showed that the amount expended on capital account during the half-year amounted to JE860 103. Id. The sum available for dis- tribution was £ 11,277 8s., and a dividend1 at the rate of 4 1-16 per cent. per annum was recommended, aborbing £10,826 lis. 3d., carrying forward a. balance of JE450 16s. 9d. to the credit of the current half-yeaa-. The Chairman, in moving the adoption of the report, said that, the earnings of the company last half-year slightly exceeded the record of any previous summer half- year. The previous half-year also had a record over any previous winter half-year. He hoped, therefore, that as a company they were entering upon an era of increased prosperity which would enable them to enjoy a yield of more than, 4 1-16 per cent., the. amount of dividend guaranteed by the Barry Company. The report was adopted, and a dividend as recommended was agreed to. On the proposition of Alderman F. J. i Beavan, a vote of thanks was passed to the chairman, and directors.
NEW PITS AT OGMORE YALE. )
NEW PITS AT OGMORE YALE. ) The ceremofty of cutting the first sod' of a pair of pits which the Coedcae Colliery Co. are sinking at Ogmore Vale was performed on August 5th. Sir William Thomas Lewis, who is largely interestedl in the company, atten- ded the ceremony with other directors, and afterwards a luncheon was served at the Cor- bett Arms, at which Sir W. T. Lewis presi- ded. The company have acquired' a very large taking in the Ogmore Valley. and in- tend to sink three pits to work the lower steam coal measures. Mr. Thomas Davies, of Ynyshir, is the engineer in charge of the work. Further developments are expected, and the work will no doubt prove of great benefit to the Ogmore Valley.
ITHE SIXTY HOURS CLAUSE. I…
THE SIXTY HOURS CLAUSE. 4 IMPORTANT TEST CASE. During the recent coal crisis in the South Wales coalfield, owing to the operation of the Eight Hours Act, one of the vital issues be- tween the employers and the workmen's repre- sentatives was the demand of the former that the workmen should work the extra 60 hours permitted under the Act. When the settle- ment was arrived at it was tacitly agreed1 be- tween the parties that the right of the em- ployers to the extra hours should be the sub- ject of a test case, and on August 5th, at the Porth Police Court, before the Stipendiary, Mr. D. Lleufer Thomas, proceedings were taken by Messrs. Insoles, Limited, against four of their workmen for damages for breach of contract in refusing to work the extra hour per week as demanded by the plaintiff com- pany. Mr. Montagu Lush, K.C., and Mr. Trevor Lewis (instructed by Mr. C. Kenshole) ap- peared' for the company, and Mr. J. Sankey, K.C. (instructed by Messrs. Morgan, Bruce, and Nicholas) appeared for the defence. Among those present in court were Mr. WT. Abraham (Mabon), M.P., president of the South Wales Federation; Mr. Tom Richards, M.P., secretary; Mr. A. Onions, treasurer; and Mr. D. Watts Morgan, agent of the Rhondda district. Mr. T. Griffiths, J.P., I agent of the Cymmer Collieries, and a promi- nent member of the Conciliation Board, was also in attendance. The defendant cited was William Robinson, collier, Porth, and it was agreed that this case should be argued' as a test, and that the decision should govern all the other cases. The plaintiffs, in addition to claiming 2s. 6d. damages for breach of contract, asked the Court to state if the amount of damages should be deducted from the amount of wages earned by the defendant. Only formal evi- dence of the demands made by the plaintiff company to defendant to work the extra hour on two occasions, and the defendants' refusal was given by Mr. E. S. Williams, manager of the colliery. The other facts in the case were admitted, and it then resolved itself into a legal argument as to whether the employers could insist upon the workmen working the extra hour. Mr. Montagu Lush contended that the re- fusal of the defendant to work the extra hour per week was a breach of the Conciliation Board agreement, which laid an obligation upon the men to work the hours permitted under the new Coal Mines Regulation Act. Counsel argued that Clause 3 of the new statute gave absolute power to the manage- ment at the collieries to call upon the men to work this extra hour. Mr. Lush main- tained, in regard to the second point, that it was within the powers of the Court that any damages which might be awarded1 could' be ordere.d to be deducted by the company from the wages earned by and due to defendant. Mr. Sankey, K.C., maintained that all the new Act of Parliament did was to limit the hours of work, and that the Legislature did not compel the men to work even eight hours per day, much less the extra 60 hours per an- num. All the Act did was to bind the men not to work more than the stipulated eight hours. There was no obligation passed by Clause 3 upon the workmen to work the extra. hour, as the clause was only an enabling clause, permitting an extra hour to be worked in order that there should be no transgression of the Act. Counsel, dealing with the issue as to whether the company could deduct the dama- ges from the wages of the men. argued that inasmuch as no claim had been formulated1 by the workmen as to any wages due, the Court had no jurisdiction to made any adjustment on the lines asked for by the plaintiff. The Stipendiary reserved' his decision for a fortnight, and in reply to Mr. Lush said that owing to the importance of the matter he would cite a case for the purposes of an ap- peal.

- J DROWNED NEAR LLANTRISANT.…
J DROWNED NEAR LLANTRISANT. I --+-_u GALLANT RESCUE EFFORTS. A sad bathing fatality took place at an old feeder at Llantwit Main, near Llantrisant, on Tuesday afternoon, the victim being a young man named William Henry Pine (23), of Brynsteg Cottage, Llantrisant. Mr. Pine and two companions—Messrs. Charles Regan and Richard Morgan—went to the feeder, which is of considerable depth, to bathe. Deceased, who could not swim, accidentally got beyond his depth. Mr. Morgan swam at once to the assistance of his companion, but tli.4 Latter clung to his legs and he, too, nearly got drowned- in the attempt, being only saved just in time by Mr. Regan. Gallant efforts were made to save the drowning man by his two comrades as well as by Mr. Mort, of Llan- tranisant. who dived into the water and suc- ceeded, but. unfortunately too late, in re- covering the body. P.S. Jonec, and others also rendered valuable help and endeavoured1 to bring about respiration, but Dr. Lodie, who had also arrived on the scene, pro- nounced life extinct.
FISHGUARD AND THE MAILS. ,—«.
FISHGUARD AND THE MAILS. ,—«. CU-NARD STEAMERS TO CALL ON HOME- WARD JOURNEY. ADVANTAGES OF THE ROUTE. The Cunard Company -officially announced on Sunday night that they have decided: to call at Fishguard' with their. New York steamers eastward bound, weather and other circumstances permitting, commencing with the Mauretania, from New York, August 25th, for the. purpose of landing passengers ariid mails for London and the Coninent, and other places which can be served by the port of Fishguard. The Cunard Company trust that the call at f ishguard, having for its object the shortening of the journey between America, London, and the Continent, will prove of great advantage. to the travelling public. There seems to be little doubt that the facilities afforded by the harbour at Fish- guard show a material saving when compared with other ports, as will be seen from the fol- lowing tuble:- New York to Fishguard, direct .2902 miles New iork to Holyhead, direct 2043 miles New York to Plymouth, direct 2957 miles New iork to Liverpool, direct .3015 miles New York to Southampton, direct'3076 miles Compared with Liverpool, therefore, the saving in distance to Fishguard is 113 miles, and owing to the. slackening of speed neces- sary to the luersey, the time occupied in sail- ing this distance is material. It is recognised that the steamship compan- ies have to cater for the Continental as well as the English traffic, and there is no doubt that Plymouth is the best available port of call for liners making their home at South- ampton. For vessels making their home at Liverpool, however, there can be no question that the most convenient and serviceable port of call is Fishguard. As at Plymouth, the most complete ar- rangements exist at Fishgaurd for dealing with vessels of the largest capacity, and the experience of the Booth Line, which regularly makes use of the port, is that the facilities are quite up-to-date. Commodious tenders meet the vessels, which anchor inside the breakwater, where there is ample depth of water for. the largest ships, and' the con- veniences at the station are of the most modern description. The quay space is over half a mile in length, and an additional sta- tion has recently been opened' on the break- water itself, equipped with the necessary waiting rooms, Customs depot, and telegraph office. The depth of water alongside this ocean quay station is 40ft. The distance by rail from Fishguard' to London is 261 miles, and the time occupied on. this journey by an ocean special with a stop at Cardiff to set down passengers for South Wales and the Midlands is no more than 4t hours. Then. again, the splendid service which is given twice a day by the turbine steamers be- tween Fishguard and Rosslare is available for passengers and mails for Ireland if landed at Fisbguard.
A POLICEMAN'S EXPERIENCE.
A POLICEMAN'S EXPERIENCE. MADE EXECUTOR BY A DYING MAN. A Grimsby police-constable has had a strange midnight experience. Mr. Francis Jeffrey, an aged taxidermist, who lives at the Bull Ring, called the officer to his house. On entering he found Mr. Jeffrey to be ill and alone, and so sent for the police surgeon and a nurse, but meanwhile Mr. Jeffrey said he felt his end approaching, and bidding the constable sit down he dictated to him his will, gave him the address of his relatives, and then appointed him trustee of the estate. A little later, despite medical treatment, the poor old fellow died. He had lived in the house for many years, and was a clever taxi- dermist and great naturalist. A few days ago his wife died suddenly, being found dead by his side when he awoke in the morning.
LONDON AMBULANCE SERVICE.
LONDON AMBULANCE SERVICE. The text has been issued of a bill which will enable the Metropolitan Asylums Board to establish and maintain an ambulance ser- vice within the London county area, and will empower a Commissioner of Police of the metropolis to enter into agreements with the managers and with the Guardians with re- spect to the use of the ambulance. A com- mittee appointed by the Home Office to con- sider ambulance provision in the metropolis I reported that the present sy.stem wa-s gravely defective, and two of its three members ex- pressed the opinion that an efficient service should be provided by the Metropolitan Asylums Board. The present bill follows that recommendation. Another billj. entitled the Metropolitan Ambulances Bill, in which the power to establish a service is vested in the L.C.C., has already passed second reading in the Commons and stands referred to Stand- ing Committee.

KING PETER DANGEROUSLY ILL. According to a despatch from Vienna, King Peter of Servia is extremely ill, and it is doubtful whether he will recover. Prince Alexander (now the Crown Prince of Servia) has passed through Vienna on, his way to Bel- grade, but the state of Servia is very dis- quieting, and, in t.he event of the death of the King, it is impossible to say what will happen. The ex-Crown Prince George has many warm (supporters in Servia, and it is not unlikely that the death of the present King- might result in a revolution in his favour.

BRITISH FLYING MACHINES. <-
BRITISH FLYING MACHINES. <- FLAN TO CARRY PASSENGERS. Sir Hiram Maxim is constructing a new flying machine at. Crayford, Kent. A ep^pial track has been prepared on the old motor track at the Wolseley works, and thirty men are employed building the new machine. Sir Hiram has taken living accommodation near the ground. It is believed that the new machine has been designed to carry several people. A retired engineer, with the appropriate name of Britain, is looking forward with great hope to the completion of an all-British aeroplane, which is being constructed for him by a cycle and motor manufacturing firm in Enfield. In appearance the new machine is not un- like the Wright aeroplane. It has three planes, one above the other, and is driven by two propellers in the front, which are worked by a motor of lew power. The most curious feature about the aeroplane is the construc- tion of the tail, which is compocsed of movable planes, so that it can be worked in the same manner as a bird's tail, which in shape it greatly resembles. The machine is being con- veyed in parts to Forty Hall, the residence of Colonel Bowles, where a flight will probably be attempted shortly.
ZEPPELIN'S TRIP TO BERLIN.…
ZEPPELIN'S TRIP TO BERLIN. CHILDREN AND JAPANESE TO SEE IT. Count Zeppelin is suffering from a slight inflammation of his throat. Arrangements had been made for his debut before the Berlin public on August 2Gth. The Emperor, how- ever, with his characteristic forethought, sug- gested that the children of Berlin should not be deprived of an opportunity of seeing him sailing over the city. Saturday being a half- holiday, and falling on August 28th, the Em- peror has requested the Count to postpone his suggested trip until then. About thirty Japanese officers are expected to arrive shortly in Germany. In many of the towns of the Fatherland the appearance of Japanese and Chinese officers is no unwonted sight. The peculiarity of this new influx, how- ever, is the characteristic desire of the Japa- nese to remain an fait with the latest de- velopments in aerial navigation as applied to war. The commission is composed of officers belonging to the Japanese Army and Navy who have already undergone a course of study in aerial navigation in their own country. One of the best-known members of the com- mission is Colonel Yamada, an officer who dis- tinguished himself during the Manchuria campaign by the construction of an airship, which created a great stir in aeronautical circles during the most critical periods of the war. The airship, it is stated. has been per- fected since then, and is provided with aerial torpedoes. In Germany the visit is viewed with mixed feelings, and the Kaiser's memo- rable expression, "Inventors of Europe, pre- serve your best ideas for your own country," is being recalled.
RUSSIA AND ITS BUDGET.
RUSSIA AND ITS BUDGET. EIGHTY MILLION ROUBLES SHORT. A wire from St. Petersburg on Monday 6ays: It is expected that the Council of Ministers will begin its examination of the 1910 Budget towards the close of the "esent week. The deficit to be faced has increased considerably beyond estimates, and now ex- ceeds eighty million roubles, but it is pos- sible that at the coming conferences further reductions in the various departmental votes will be arranged. A rouble is worth about 3s. 2d. of English money. M. Kokovtzoff will lay the Income Tax Bill before the Duma in November. The Minister of Finance expresses his firm conviction that the position promises great improvement, the deficit notwithstanding.
DOUBLE TRAGEDY AT ACTON.
DOUBLE TRAGEDY AT ACTON. MURDER BY A REJECTED LOVER. A terrible double tragedy was enacted shortly before midnight on Saturday in Colville-road, Acton Green, West London. A man named Jack Bee, who was a painter, cut the throat of a young woman named May White, aged twenty, daughter of a carpenter,, and then gashed his own throat with the same razor and tore open the wound until he bled to death, both deaths resulting within a- few minutes. Bee had been engaged to May White for eight months, but owing to his habits, through which he lost his situation, the en- gagement was broken off, and certain pre- sents, including a watch and an engagement ring, were returned to him on Good Friday last, a short note terminating the engage- ment. He wrote several letters asking for forgiveness and a renewal of the engagement, but no notice was taken of these. While the girl was waiting for the return of her parents at the garden gate Bee suddenly appeared, and, after a short conversation, in which a neighbour said she heard the girl say No," the man attacked her in the manner de- scribed. The murdered girl was a good-look- ing, healthy, i athletic girl, and was a. photo- grapher's assistant.

ROBINSON CRUSOE BY CHOICE.
ROBINSON CRUSOE BY CHOICE. ISLAND WITH ONE MAN ON IT. DISCOVERIES BY THE NIMROD. Interest in Mr. Shackleton's Antarctic ven- ture does not oncl with the experiences already narrated by the gallant explorer—nor with the monetary statement published on Monday. For the Ximrod has been at work under the Southern Cross these Just few weeks, and has discovered a modern Robinson Crusoe, in addition to disproving the exist- ence of certain charted islands. The vessel left Sydney on May 8th, and pro- ceeded south in order to visit Macquarie Island. On May 18th, 'in fine, clear weather, the vessel passed over the position assigned to Royal Society Island, with no land in sight. A sounding was taken in the neighbourhood, and bottom, reached with. 2,430 fathoms of line. Captain Davis then stood east and then south, but saw no sign of land in the vicinity. After satisfying himself that the island did not exist, he proceeded to Macquarie Island, in order to make zoological collections. As she drew near Nugget Point, from which a reef of rocks extends for some distance sea- wards, two huts were seen on the shore, as also the wreck of a vessel high and dry on the beach. In his report, which is just to hand, Cap- tain Davis says Suddenly, to our surprise, a column of smoke rose from the smaller of the two huts. As we liad heard nothing of anyone living on the island, this was extra- ordinary. Presently, with the glasses, we could make out the figure of a man standing at the door of the smaller of the huts watch- ing our approach. We came to anchor, and the boat was lowered and headed for the shore. The man, who had been watching us from the hut, now walked down to the beach, accompanied by two little dogs. There was a heavy surf, but our Crusoe-like friend, after pointing out the best landing-place, walked into the water and assisted in beaching the boat. We soon ascertained that his name was William McKibben, and that he had been a member of a party which had visited the island in the previous season in order to obtain seal and i penguin oil. When the season was over and the party's vessel filled with barrels of oil, he had elected to remain on the island by himself in order to collect oil for the follow- ing season. II-i did not mind the loneliness at all." Captain Davis made further collections on the island, and then proceeded to the charted position of Emeraid Island, over which he passed on the night of May 31st, with a bright moon shining. On June 9th the Nimrod arrived in the vicinity of the position assigned to the Nimrod Islands, and again found no land. Dougherty Island also appeared to be non-existent; Captain Davis thinks it was an iceberg long since melted." The Nimrod afterwards steered for Monta Video on her way home.
; WHISKY COMMISSION'S REPORT.
WHISKY COMMISSION'S REPORT. WHAT CONSTITUTES "WHISKY": The final report of this Commission has just been issued as a. Blue Book. It com- ments on the curious divergence of view among the witnesses as to the definition of whisky, and comes to the conclusion that whisky, as a commercial product, is regarded both by manufacturers and the public as a. spirit made from no other materials than malt and unmalted grain, and is, as a matter of fact, so made at the present time and the Commissioners feel confident that the restric- tion of the term whisky" to a product manufactured from malt and grain would meet with no opposition from any of the traders in Whisky. They see no reason for prohibiting the use of foreign barley or maize in the manufacture. In regard to processes of manufacture, there is no evidence to shew that the form of still has any necessary rela- tionsliip to the wholesomeness of the spirit produced; and the Commissioners are unable to recommend that the use of the word "'whisky should be restricted to spirit manufactured by the pot-still process. They do not think it desirable to require that de- clarations should be made as to the materials, processes of manufacture or preparation, or age of Scotch whisky, Irish whisky, or any spirit to which the term whisky may be applied as a trade description nor can they recommend compulsory labelling as a means of protecting the consumer. The report pro- ceeds to deal with brandy, describes the com- position of British, Hamburg, and: other brandies, and observes that their conclusion is that the term "brandy" is properly applic- 1 able to a potable spirit mailufact-ured from fermented grape juice and from no other ma- terials. The report deals at length with the question of the compulsory bonding of spirits, and expresses an opinion unfavourable to any undue interference with the blending of whisky.
!ACCIDENTS AT EUCHARISTIC…
ACCIDENTS AT EUCHARISTIC CONFERENCE MANY PILGRIMS INJURED. The termination of the Eucharist Confer- ence in Cologne was accompanied unfortu- nately by a number of serious accidents around the cathedral, where the greatest crowd congregated. About 400 persons fainted owing to the great heat and the excitement of the occasion. Ten children were driyen over by passing vehicles. At the central railway station 550 trains that had been selected to convey the immense number of pilgrims back to the various- homes were so crowded that the interference of the police was necessary in order to avoid greater catastrophes than had already occurred in the streets surrounding the station. The slamming-to of doors by anxious rail- way officials desirous of fulfilling their in- structions resulted in injuries to thirty-two persons. It was not until an early hour in the morning that normal conditions were re- "tored in the ancient town.

HINTS FOR THE HOME.i .I
HINTS FOR THE HOME. BUTTERMILK'S PROPERTIES. Buttermilk, so generally regarded as a waste product, has latterly been ooming eomewhat into vogue not only as a nutrient, but as a thera- peutic agent. Buttermilk may be roughly de- scribed as milk which has lost most of its fat and a email percentage of its caeein. and which has become sour by fermentation. Long experience has demoniPtrated it- to be an agent of superior digestibility. It 1S, indeed. adds Health, a true milk peptone — that is, milk already partially digested, the coaguLation of the coagulable por- tion being loose and flaky, and not of that firm indigestible nature which is the result of the action of the gastric juice upon sweet cow's milk. It is a decided laxative to the bowels, a fact which muet be borne in mind in the treat- ment of typhoid fever, and which may be turned to advantage in the treatment of habitual consti- pation. It is a diuretic, and may be prescribed with advantage in some kidney troubles. WATER DRINKING. T am decidedly opposed to the indiscriminate drinking of cold water in large quantities, writes a well-known medical man. One cannot under- stand in what manner these large imbibitions are to operate so as to be useful in the animal economy. We know precisely what becomes of the water soon after entering the etomach; we can trace exactly what course all this water must take—what channels it must traverse between its entrance and its exit. We are perfectly well acquainted with certain physiological effects pro- duced by it after it has been received into the system. It dilutes the blood, it lowers the tem- perature. and therefore diminishee the vital power of the stomach; it puts certain systems of capillary blood-vessels on the stretch, to the great danger of bursting, and it overtax ee the kidneys. TRUST ATTRACTS THE BEST. It pays to trust a child. Because it is the surest way of bringing forward the best that is in him, and because, lacking that attitude, parenthood loses its strongest tool for the fashioning of character in the child. There is still another reaeon. A kind of personal atmo- sphere exists in all human relationships. Through this atmosphere people must speak to one glnothe r-oven a mother to her child. A taint of suspicion colouring thie medium through which. a parent's words must travel to reach hia child will so disturb the relationship existing be- tween them that it will soon be impossible for either to be frank, and hard even for them to meet each other's eyes. WASHING BLANKETS. A woman who has some blankets ten years eld that are as fluffy as the day they were bought says she washes them with soap jelly. She shaves a half-bar of yellow laundry soap and pours this into a pint of boiling water; she ptirs this until it becomes a thick jelly and pours it into three buckets of lukewarm water. Into tbia she puts the blankets and washes thoroughly. She does not rub soap on the blankets. She puts them through a wringer and in another tub of clear lukewarm water. Then she keeps on rins- ing In clear water until every particle of soap is removed, and hangs them in the hot sun, tak- ing care to hang them perfectly straight. She leaves them in the sun for several hours until perfectly dry then she beats them with a rattan beater, as she would rugs and furniture. This brings up the nap and makes them fluffy. TO MAKE SLEEP COME. If you cannot get sleep try a sponge bath made thue: Into eight ounces of alcohol put two of ammonia and two of camphor. Shake thoroughly, and when well mixed add four ounoes of sea-salt and enough hot water to fill a quart bottle. To apply it, pour a little of the liquid in a shallow dish, moisten the whole body a little at a time by dipping a small sponge in it. Rub on a very little, then finish with a vigorous rubbing with a coarse crash towel. Get into bed. and await the quick arrival of Nature's sweet restorer, balmy sleep." HELPFUL WIVES. It is not always the wife who stands behind her husband's counter, or shares his office or labours with him shoulder to shoulder, who is the greatest help to a man. Many women distinctly feminine, and. to all appearances, hopelessly un- businesslike, are first aids to the busy husband, and they seldom or never enter the shops, offices, or factories over which their husbands rule. A woman blessed with the faculty of say- ing or doing the right thing at the right minute is bound to be a help to ber husband. lhe woman who can make herself indispensable to her husband as his social mentor and co-enter- tainer has many pleasures which the less tactful sisters miss. Everyone Tecognises as a, bore the woman who is for ever quoting the clever say- ings of her husband, and dwelling at length upon his good points, his success in business, &c.; but the wife who knows when to drop a. hint that counts is the real helpmeeti I u TO PRESERVE EGGS;, One way of preserving eggs is said to be the following: For every three gallons of soft water put m one pint of fresh slaked lime and half a. pint of common salt. Mix well, and let the barrel be about half full of this fluid. Then with a dish let down the fresh eggs. tip- ping the di.h after it fills with water, so that the eggs will roll out without cracking the shell, for if the latter should happen to be broken the eggs, of course, will ppoil. If fresh eggs be put in. fresh ones will come out. BE PATIENT WITH THE BOY. The boy has some rights! Thev are too often overlooked. Older sisters frequently recent them. Even Inothere (sometimes fail to recognise them. The growing boy has scant courtesy snewn him at home. What if his tracks are teen occasionally on the clean floor? What if he doee leave dooTe open when they 6hould be shut? What if he does make noise enough to raiee the dead? t It muet be remembered that theee are not crimes or shortcomings. Time and patience can remedy these a*d many other thoughtless acts. Time. patience, and judicious encouragement will prove more effective than fault-finding. Is there'any member of the family who lieare more complaints of his methods than the boy? Yet he really does many mtle helpful tilings that we would-oxiss-if they were omitted.
