others. He came home at noon slightly
intoxicated, entered room where his wife
and her younger sister were, held his wife
around the waist with one arm and fired
four shots from q revolver held in his dis
engaged hand. One shot entered her brain,
producing instant death, He fired at his
own head, failed to hit it, walked down
street till he met policeman and surren-
dered. Her maiden name was Nina S.

The finest lace that is made today is the
point de gaze This is made in Belgium.
The net itself is needlework upon which
the pattern is wrought, while the net is
stretched over background of paper. The
work is exceedingly fine and exacting, and
because of its tediousness those who are
engaged in the manufacture of it are sell
dom able to earn more than few cents a
day Not much better than this are the
wages of the torchon workers, who make
the real torchon in little town in the
south of France called lie Puy. During a
year of ordinary labor they average from
four to six cents a day. although in special
years, when there is greater demand for
their varieties of lace, they sometimes earn
from twenty to sixty cents a day.-New

Some Funny Newspaper Bun.

There were some good newspaper bulls
during the session-all of the genuine Irish
breed. Mr.. Donal Sullivan introduced to
the house one from an Irish paper. 1t was
in the form of an advertisement for a labor
er and boy, and concluded thus: "With
grazing for two goats; both Protestants."
An Irishman writing in The Times on
the late Baron Dowse concluded his eulo-
GUM: "a great Irishman has passed away.
God grant that many as great, and who
shall as wisely love their country, may fol-
low him." A Dublin paper heard that
1.-THE health of Mr.. Parnell has latterly
taken very serious turn, and that fears
of his recovery are entertained by his
friends" Several English papers quoted
this without detecting the bull.
A Cork paper, in describing an interval
of peace in a stormy public meeting, said,

words to pass mile post every sixty
seconds. is very fast going, and q good
many people consider such O -ate of
speed dangerous; this, however, is
largely q mistake, as the question Of
safety depends not so much on the rate
of speed as on the road bed and equip

The cause Of this remarkable success in

What Is good Baking Powder7

It is well known fact that carbonate
Of ammonia is used by bakers in the
preparation Of the finest and most
wholesome bread and cake, and has
been from time immemorial. It is
among the oldest and at the samc time
most healthful constituents OF baking
powders. 1t is all evolved in gas by
the heat of the oven, and lHves no trace
OF itself in the food, and il is this that
gives IL its great value as leavening
agent in the opinions Of the physicians.
