He had investigated the grievâ€" ance and was satisfied it was â€" not coming from the sewer â€"manholes, but he found that there was an odor comâ€" ing from the stormâ€"drain. He found that there was a large volme of steam coming from the stormâ€"drain ‘ manhole, and in consultation with the 'Town Engineer they had come. to the conclusion that the Central Heatâ€" ‘ing Co. was using the storm drain ‘in this vicinity and the force of the | exhaust stcap. was forcing the oily ]msttcr passing through the _ drain {back and thereby causing the odot, | which at times was unbearable and Ithe Board of Works should deal with {it at once. In his opinion it was an | intolerable nuisance. Messrs Geo. Moser, Hy. Winterhalt and Geo. Ziegler addressed the Counâ€" cil briefly in regard to the nuisance. After a brief discussion the matter was referred to the Board of Works for immediate investigation. $ Ald. Sheppard asked the Board of Works to find out whether the bare spots on the streets caused by the Heating Co‘s manholes could not be remedicd.

When money is not scarce, a home can be made very beautiful, a joy to look upon.. It is no wonder, therefore, that the model home prepared by the T. Eaton Company, in the Manâ€" ufacturers‘ Building, was one of the teatures of the recent Toronto Exhiâ€" bition. From the kitchen cabinet to the cupids on the ceiling of the drawâ€" ing room, everything was elegant and tasteful. . The drawing room, particâ€" ularly, was most attractive. Mahogâ€" any and gold seemed the prevailing tints, while the rug, the hangings, ind the beautiful paneling . of the walls harmonized exquisitely. But the finishing touch to the design was provided by a rich Gourlay piane, of Sheraton design, whichâ€"stood in the cornetr. The work of this firm, Messrs. Gourlay, Winter and Leemâ€" ing, is always of the finest type, and it was no wonder that the Eaton Company went to them to procufe a piano in harmony with their model room..
