Mrs. George Edier of Pilkington wan- dered away from home and was found drowned in a creek. Two hundred lady teaohers arrived at Guelph to take a three months' course in the Ontario Agricultural College, At least a thousand persons have been killed in the fights between Moslems and Armenians at Adana, in Asia Minor. Owing to the breakup of the roads the postofiice twill only accept letters for delivery at Gowganda and distriot points, George B. McKinnon of Mooretown, Ont., was shot and killed in a saloon at St, Clair, Mich , by Capt. Ralph Pringle. Thomas Simpson is under arrest at Hamilton for stabbing Ross Wallace in a quarrel about Simpson's wife. Wal- lace may die. According to figures given out by F. S. Spence, of the Dominion Alliance, the sum of $76,867,649 was spent in Canada last year for intoxicating liquors. John Neville was committed for trial at Hamilton on the charge of shooting Constable Smith with intent. Smith swore the prisoner was the man who shot him. Five former and present members of the Finance Committee of Montreal City Connell were disqualified for two years for voting money to pay the ex- penses of relatives of Mayor Payette and Assistant Clerk Bauset on their trip to Paris. A prominent Ottawa lady was fined r30 in the police oonrt last week for having partridges in her possession dur- ing the closed season. The partridges had been given her by a friend and she was ignorant of the law, which makes it illegal to buy or sell or have them in possession at thia time. Keeping Bread. For a bread box, a covered stone crock. The bread will keep much nioer than in a tin vessel. The crook should be placed in a cool plane. Never put the bread in it without covering it with a cloth, to exolude the air. To keep sandwiches that have been prepared beforehand moist wrap them in a slightly damp cloth. This is not practicable if they are kept too long, as they wili get musty. Be careful that not a bit of butter gets into the bread box. It will get rancid and make the rest of the bread taste. Receptacles should be scalded out fre- quently, being wiped well afterward. The cloths need to cover the bread should also bo washed often. Poultry Extraordinary. Mr. H. Broadfoot believes every active business and professional man nhonld cultivate a hobby. In support of that argument he has just started a model poultry farm in Wingham. Although most of the stock are in the embryo state we believe that with good attention results will bo obtained. Mr. Broadfoot is noting partly under the suggestion of B. Cochrane, who it is understood has had a vast and unlimited experience in raising poultry, both utility and table varieties, and we are pleased to see him every morning superinteliding feeding operations. The following popular quotation might be safely attached: " To swallow gudgeons ere they're catched And count their chickens ere they'rehatchad " BORN.
