NEWSPAPERS FOR SATURDAY NIGHT BATH Newspapers have a variety of uses besides furnishing news and helping the manufacturer dispose of his prod- ucts through advertising. In many countries they are used extensively for wrapping parcels while in Mex ico they furnish fuel for the. Satur- day night 'bath. Water is heated in cylindrical wood -burning water heat- •ers which have a small storage cap- acity and fuel ranges from old news- papers to wood kindlings, according to the Industrial Department of the Canadian National Railways. Cooking is done generally over charcoal burn- ers, which is practically the only cooking stove used by the poorer classes, while practically all the homes of the higher -income classes are equipped with grates for charcoal fires. There is no use of coal for dom- estic purposes and wood is only em- ployed in open fireplaces and water heaters, and, therefore, coal and wood stoves are unknown except in the area near the American border. Oil stoves are coming into greater use in recent years, the Mexican Governmenten- deavoring to change the cooking and heating methods of thepeople in ord- er to conserve the forests which have suffered serious depletion as 'a result of the tremendous consumption of charcoal. Electrical stoves, ovens and. other heating appliances are used only by the more wealthy classes. Briggs—"Poor old. Horrrocks has had two unhappy marriages." Gregory—"That's pretty tough."
