Place. the hanri over the mouth of the vessel and shake it vigorously. After n little while all the coating on the glass will he removed. and the glass will hove a brilliant shine. Glass articles, as soon a5 bought, should by placed in a saucepan of cold water and brought slowly to the boil. If this precaution is cal(en they are not so likely to break. THE CARE OF GLASS How to Avoid Breakage and Wash and Shine Glasses There would not be nearly so many breakages of glass if the fol- lowing instructions were always ear - tied out. When pouring anything hot into a lass a spoon should he held in the enter of the glass. In this way the ambler !e prevented from cracking tscause the metal takes ftp the first shock of the heat. If it can possibly be avoided, nev- er wash glass in soapy water or wat- er to which soda has been added. These pr'epar'ations invariably make the, glass dull. Just immerse the glasses, one or two at a time, in warm water, and then rinse thein un- der the faucet, dry then, on a soft cloth, and polish. There is nothing better for clean• ing the inside of small glass juga, de- canters, or vases than potato peel- ings. Chop the peeling up finely, tg 1. Road Building Big Undertaking Dealing with affairs of the De- pntrntent of highways yesterday, Iron. G. S. Henry said the general policy had been enlargement of road units with- the object of securing more uniformity. Local or town- ship roads had developed intd county roads, and these in turn had become provincial highways. Total mileage was over 52,000, and expenditure $151.,672,512.56. ..-. -_ tussah .._.._.. nem ma. . 1ttarnenam fr.luin uvsumnM ;min .1renva.uv...verrre.tam•.cm.<• ivran,is 1 There are a great many ways to 'do a job of printing ; but quality printing is only done one way—THE BEST.

When that is the ca:;e, with two high tariff walls built up by these respective governments, what would be. the situation if those walls were lowered to a very i:4050n- able height?

The Liberal party was returned to power at the recent metered enaction for two reasons. First, because the people know that the Liberal party has as its leader one who is a real friend of the common people, a Iead- er who in the face of all the epithets of slander and falsehood which was hurled against him and his brilliant leading lieutenant, was -able to con- duct hi, campaign and place the pub- lic issues before the country ht such a convincing and masterly way as n4 only to arrest the, attention but to command the support of the elec- tnrae. Secondly, the Liberal party was returned to power because dur- ing its brief repine in the last par- liament it diel not forget the primary prndueers and the general eonsnm- ers--tlhe men and women who do not importune tariff board:: and ministers with deputations, not because they ars not vitally interested, but he- eeuse in ht, gen-..1 ne:ture of affair they cannot shard to do that kind of thing; it must be dos • for them.
