 On Saturday, as the Rev. MT. O1mstead was holding his horse by the halter in front of MT. Latimer's, while the bridle was being repaired, the horse started of suddenly with the carriage, and in spite of all attempts to stop him, ran to Indian Neck without doing any injury to himself or the carriage The mental and physical equilibrium of the Rev erend was somewhat disturbed by the uncere- monious departure of the horse but on the whole it was very fortunate termination of an unpromising commencement.
 Athletic sports seem to have had their day in Branford. Ball playing is confined to very small boys, and there is only occasionally a very feeble attempt at football on the Green.

 Strawberry picking has commenced in earnest, but the weather will probably make the season 8 short one

a toriter in the Journal of Science
remarks that noise Ia a contributor to
the tear and wear Of modern oity life
to a very grave degree, and wonders
why, while steady war Is waged
against many other anti-sanitary agen-
cies, no really serious and persistent
attempt has been made for the abolition
of superfluous sounds. No complete and
satisfactory account has yet been given
regarding the cause of the injurious ef-
feet of sound in excess upon the ner-
vous system. Nervous irritability and
cerebral disease appear to keep pace
with the multiplication of sounds es-
peolally among thinkers. He proposes,
therefore as a palliative, the absolute
prohibition of street music and Of
church bell ringing, and the preven-
ton of suoh sounds as proceed from
dogs which bark persistently, and from
harmoniums, organs, and wind instru-
ments In general, except in houses
which are detached.

USES OF WASTE PAPER.-A writer
says that few housekeepers are aware
OF the many uses to which waste paper
may be put. After a stove has been
BACKED, it can be kept looking we'll tor
long time by rubbing it with paper
every morning. Rubbing it with paper
Is much nicer way of keeping the out
side Of tea-kettle clean than the old
way Of washing 1t in suds. Rubbing
them with paper is also the best way
OF polishing knives and tin ware after
securing them. If little soap be held
on the paper In rubbing TN ware and
spoons, they shine like new silver.
For polishing mirrors, windows, lamp
chimneys,e etc., paper is better than dry
cloth. Preserves und pickles keep
much better If brown paper instead of
cloth Is tied over the Jar. Canned fruit
is not apt TO mould it piece Of writ
Ing paper cut to fit each can, is laid
d rectly upon the fruit. Paper is much
better 60 put under carpets than straw
1t Is thinner, wal mer and makes less
noise when one walks over it. Two
thicknesses Of paper placed betwenn
the other coverings on bed are as
warm as a quilt. If it is necessary to
step upon a char, always lay a paper
upon 1t, and thus save the paint and
woodwork from damage.

out the omeiette neatly on dish,
