and Leigh suddenly took his departure
and went to Herttord, n. G., where he
secured position as princi pal of

Taking the above into consideration,

us by our intormants, we felt justif-
able in publishing the following para
graph in regard to Mr.. Leig CHS de
parture from Cana, and which appear
ed in our issue Of Septemb Der 9th, 1889:
Prof j. HI. P. Leigh, principal of
Cana High School, was too fond of
his lady pupils, and as he was mar
ried man, this could not be allowed by
the good people of Cana, so his place
is now vacant"
For the publication of the above
paragraph, suit has been instituted in
the Superior Court of Perquimans
County by said Leil h against the
editor of The Times, together with
Messrs. E. Frost and j. II. Cain, of
Cana, and will be heard at the next
term of the Superior Coult of Per-
quimans County.

A gargle of salt and water used

strengthen the throat and keep of
bronchial attacks.
Biscuits can be warmed to be as
good as when just baked by plac-
ing them in the oven dry, covered
closely with tin. It is q great
improvement over the old way of
wetting them.
If one wishes to cool hot dish
in hurry, it will be fonnd that if
the dish be placed in vessel full
of cold, salty water it will cool far
more rapidly than if it stood in
water free from salt.
Delicately colored goods of any
kind should never be washed with
out saltwater bath first, but care
should be exercised in reference to
materials which are likely to shrink
when immersed in water.
