If the asbestos of stoves or fire- places becomes discolored or black- ened from the gas, the thing to do is to sprinkle the feathery fibre with common table salt, then light the gas and let it burn the same as usual. The sooty appearance of the asbestos de- parts like magic and the mineral soon resumes its natural whiteness again. It happens, too, that the tiny apera- tures throug h which the gas flows becomes gummed and partially filled up; when such is the case, run a hatpin through the holes, or a round toothpick, and it will readily free them. Lamp wicks hardly ever need trimming and not onen removing if they are turned up to the line of charring and then carefully wiped off till the solid part is reached. Occas- ionally a "point" or :1 stray fibre will call for the scissors. Unless one takes ice, lard Will get so soft in summer that it does not make good pie crust. A good way is to buy beef suet and fry it out, then melt the lard and mix the two togetherâ€"two-thirds lard and one- third suet. When this gets cold you will have the finest of lard that will not get soft and does not taste of the met and that makes much more flaky pie crust than ‘lard alone. A homemade beverage is easily made by pouring two quarts of boiling water over four and a half pounds 0 fsugar. Add one cupful of molasses and four ounces of tataric acid. Both together for a few minutes, and when cold add one ounce of sassafras extract. Bottle cork tightly and keep in a cool place. Take one-third of a glass of the mead, fill the glass nearly full with water; add a quarter of a teaspoonful of car- bonate of soda; stir and drink while it effervences. Do not use soap in cleansing marble tops and metals. it yellows them. Better results are had from washing with water softened with ammonia. Eat parsley and vinegar mixed after eating onions and you need not fear that you will advertise your fondness for the loudâ€"smelling bulbs. IR.

A very pretty wedding took place at five o’clock Wednesday afternoon, 5th August, at the home of Mrs. Joseph Junkin, when her daughter, Lillian, was united in marriage with Mr. Hero bert Nicholls. The ceremony was performed upon the lawn, under the blue dome of beam, by Rev. H. W. Foley, of Bobcaygeon circuit, in the presence of about 150 guests. The bride was attended by Miss Retta Ni- cholls, of Bethel, while the groom was ably supported by Mr. Leslie J unkin. The bride was given away by her bro- ther, Mr. R. Junkin, while Miss A. Mann played the wedding march from Mendelssohn. The bride’s gown was Walker, supplied-him with blank- ets to “arm him up Walker asked for his blankets in the morning and he gave them to him. On arriving in Toronto he received a telegram that his watch was found. the same was produced in court. but did not know whether Walker took his watch or not. To Mr. Weldon he admitted having taken some liquor. Mr. Arthur Parsons was the next witness called for theprosecution. He said his watch and four dollars were stolen. He and his Toronto friends went over to the landing on Goose Lake where they met the prisoners and asked them for his property. but it was not forthcoming. He did not see the boys again until they arrived in Lindsay. where he met with Walker who gave him his revolver, but he did not know anything about his watch. When cross-examined by Mr. Jordan, Parsons admitted he went in for a swim on his way to the Point and was quite chilled when he landed. Someone. whom he thought Under the cross-examiation by Mr. Weldon, he said he did not have five bottles of whiskey and eight. bottles of ale and he did not know within two hours of what time he arrived at Big Island. Parsons was the worse of liquor. The first witness called was Mr. McKeen. He said that he was camp- ing on Big Island. He retired late one night and on awakening in the morning a valise, a hatchet and a bottle of whiskey were missing. He paddled over to where the accused were camping, and upon landing met Bates and Holihan who denied know- ing anything of the stolen property. He said he had a few drinks in him but was sober. He came back to Lind- say Monday afternoon and went home to Toronto Tuesday morning.

McKeen, at Big Island. This beings): indictable ease. the accused had tha choice 3! a trial by magic- trate or a judge and jury. They all chose to be tried by the magistrate. G. W. Walker was the first called. The charge against him was that he stole a gold watch from the parties mentioned in the general charge, but he pleaded not guilty. The charge against Houlihan and Kineer were withdrawn. W. H. Walker was called and charged with stealing a revolver to which he pleaded not guilty. A.- Bates was the next elected to be tried by the magistrate, and pleaded not guilty to the theft of a hatchet.

He will be missed by his associate friends on The Even- ing Globe, which he edited for many years, and by a host of friends inside and outside of the journalistic field. Veteran Newspaper Man Passed Away MR. T. D. S. MOORE. OF TORONTO GLOBE, DEADâ€"EDITED EVEN- ING EDITION FOR YEARS. Apparently contradictory evidence was quite prominent all through Geo. Walker's testimony. He said he told his wife all about the missing of the watch when he came home Monday night. On Tuesday when he went home at noon his wife asked him where the watch came from that she had found in the blankets. He said his wife was quite surprised about finding the watch. He did not know why he sent the telegram to Toronto asking Mr. Andrews to withdraw the charge. The magistrate ordered him to be placed in jail for one week till his previous record was examined and then His Worship would pass sen- tence. Mrs. George Walker's evidence was then taken. She said that Mr. Walker was away camping at the time men- tioned and she knew that the boys were accused of stealing some parcels. but her husband said nothing to her about the watch. She was putting the blankets out to air when she found the watch and did not know who own- ed it till her husband came home at noon on Monday and told her all about it. Hannibal then took the stand and declared he knew nothing of the valise that was stolen. He saw it the night before lying near his canoe. His party had four canoes amongst them. H. Walker testified that he spent the evening referred to with the rest of the boys. He did not know any- thing about the watch and thought the Toronto boys were all drunk. but did not think anything was stolen. Mr. A. Bates was the first of the six to give his evidence. and stated that he was at Big Island at the time men- tioned; there were six boys with four canoes. He saw Toronto men com~ ing to the island and they were all drunk. They said they lost a suit case with four dollars' worth of whis- key and eight bottles of ale. The next evidence was given by Chief Vincent, which 'was the story told him by Walker before his arrest. Mr. A. Andrews testified thst he met the six boys accused at the island. After Parsons came in from his swim he removed the watch and money from his pocket. When he awoke in the morning two of the boys accused had left. Mr. Davidson, of the Great Northern Telegraph Co., recognized a telegram sent by Walker to Andrews. Mr. 1'. C. Hatchet: gave evidence to the elect that the watch was given him for the purpose of being express- ed to Toronto. He recognized the telegram as one sent by him for G. Walker to Mr. Andrews, of Toronto. PAGE THREE
