Often when light seems dim and unsatisfactory it merely means the housewife has neglected to wash the globes. Use warm suds and am- monia, All unsightly porches, the clothes line poles and other disfiguring things should be covered with vines. Plant early and their sum- mer beauty will repay you. If the brown or powdered sugar has heen bought in a hag, transfer it to a tightly covered jar when you arrive home and thus prevent it forming into hard lumps, One housewife who packs her hushand's lunch makes her pies in ramekins as molds for the pastry.

The vinegar gives the pane a lovely sparkle, and it isn't as much work a8 it sounds. I really hated to clean windows until I saw this method in the paper and decided to try it. The other day I clean- ed five large windows, inside andy out, in three quarters of an hour, and they all looked lovely, not a streak to be seen. Cleaning win-' dows isn't such an easy job, and it's discouraging to have unsight- ly streaks show after all the hard work. ns It the brown or powdered su- gar has been bought in a bag, transfer it to a tightly covered jar when you arrive home and thus prevent it forming into hard lumps. i The joy of so many of the bet- ter grades of coffee nowadays is the tio container in which it comes. Then, even if we are cereless and do not remove the coffee to a glass jar, it will stay as fresh' as when hought in its tin bos. Before heating water measura the exact amount you will need. This saves fuel. Never use both the oven and the top of the stove burners for one' meal. This is extravagant, The black-white vogue spreads to handkerchiefs.

While is is impossible as yet to estimate the exact total of the loss, it is believed that it will amount to between $15,000 and $20,000.

Mr. Russello's loss was partly covered by insur- ance, and it is also believed that the garage and the hotel buildings, which belong to the Gatzke Es- tate, were partly insured. ONE PERSON KILLED WHEN MOTOR CAR PLUNGES IN RAVINE Port Arthur, July 3.--The pleas- ure of the Dominion Day week- end, a perfect, nearly unmarred holiday, was spoiled three quarters of an hour before midnight last night. At the corner of Dawsua street 'and the Algoma Bridge a car failed to make the turn on to Algoma street from the steep Daw- son street gradient, © crashed through the railings and plunged into the ravine. Of six men in the car, al} of whonr were thrown out, one, Adolf Erickson, aged 55, pain- ter at the Provincial Mills, bad his Pack broken, dying two hours later in the General Hospital. The oth- ers were practically uninjured. Seven men were in the car re- turning from the Provincial Mills picnic at Kakabeka Falls.
