July 23.-After nine days of almost incessant rain. the sun struggled through the cloud banks at noon, today. and the weather bureau sent out the glad tidings that the flood gates had evidently been closed. Sim- ultaneously with this prediction came the .announcement by the manager ot the Rain Coat Makers' Union that its members would walk out tomorrow to inforce its demands for a 4-l-hour week with $44 pay. The umbrella makers quit last week while it was pouring hardest, thereby getting the jump on their brother craftsmen.

' SAVING ICE AND ICE BOX lt is economy to buy fi refrigerat- or oi good quality and good size, as both ice and food keep longer Set thc box in the coolest corner of the liilclicii. All refrigerators should hav,-i an enamel or tile lining. Those types arc easily cleaiicd alid do not nb- sorb food odors. li the ice box already owzicd is metal lined the lining shouhl he painted with several coats of white paint and white en- amel. Refrigerators should be thorough- ly cleaned at least twice a week, using a strong solution of cold soda water and pouring hot soda water down the drain pipe. The food ciiaiiiliers and shelves should be wasliofl out once a week and dried with n clean cloth. Nev- er allow spilled food to remain in the ice box. Wipe it out at once. Ice wrapped in newspapers or a heavy wool cloth melts less rapidly than ice left cxpcscd to thc air. but docs not cool the box quite so quick- ly or so well. llo not set any receptable on the lcc direct, or ict bottles or pans rest against it as anything touching the ice melts it more rapidly. lf water in bottles is loi be coolcd next to the ice, set the bottles ln the ice chamber, but do not let touch the cake, but slip a sheet of newspaper or cloth between bottles and Ice. Food should not be left uncov- ered in tho ice box. Keep milk and butter in glass or earthenware' cov- ered rvccptaiileii. A number of pint and quart glass jars, with glass tops. are ideal l`ood 1-riiitaliiers for keeping lci’t-over or fresh food in thc ice .box. Even eggs, and fri-sh fruits and vegetables should not be laid directly in the ice box slicii-os und floors. Pro- vide wlrc baskets or bowls for such articles to keep them together and up off tim floor. Covered china bowls and dishes are also conven- ient reccptnblcs for holding food to put in thc box.

Don’i. imagine that land always increases, in value even in the city, or that, even if it does increase tho tax collector will allow you to get the benefit of it. 6. Don't buy a lot on which to build a house unless you have some security that houses as good as your own will be built upon the adjoining land. 7. Don't be carried away with the idea that land is worth more to you if you have theyright to do with it as you like as this means that your neighbour will have thc same libertyl to use nts lot as he likes. if you do not do something on your lot to in- jure his property he may do something on his to injure yours. 8. Don't buy land having no local improvements without calculating that it will cost you $10 per foot front, more or less, to make it fit for use for residential purposes. Even if the city docs the work and charges for it as an improvement tax. you have to pay. 9. Don‘t buy water-logged land or land with heavy clay sub-soil or land which is not provided with sewers ami watermains, unless you are certain that these can be provided at reason- able cost whenever you want them. 10. Don't think that because land fronts on ai car line, it is therefore a “sure” site fora store or is more vul- uable than land not fronting on a car line. it may be worth less for that I very reason. 11.

Sirius is, from our viewpoint, the brightest star in the sky. It is a young and vigorous sun, forty times ns bright as ours. If it was as near to us as our own solar orb, we should nil be burned to death in n minute. It would melt the very rocks of the earth’s crust. But its "dark compan-- ion" is nearly extinguished. We have knowledge of one sun, nearly as big as ours, that has gone out altogether. It is n companion of Algol (ln Medusa's Head). and is 830,000 miles in diameter. Like Sirius and its comrades, the two re- volve almut a common centre of gravity.
