OPERA HOUSE LAST NIGHT,

The Germans, John. James and
George, of minstrel fame, appeared al
the Grand Opera House last night be-
fore a large audience, in the musical
farce comedy, "Gilhoolys Abroad. -
The play deals with a gay contractor,
who possessed too many sweethearts,
and the complications we're very funny.
The play was enlivened by specialtiee
and the artists were well received. The
singing Of Marie Bayliss was the prin-

ADVICE on
GAS MATTER S.

If your light is poor there is
something locally wrong, as your
gas is the same as is supplied to any
other customer.
If your burners spread the light
like the fingers of a hand, they
should be cleaned out or replaced;
cleaners furnished without charge.
If You have old-fashioned shades
with small openings at the bottom
you should change them at once to
get best results from your gas.
If yoor Walsbach lights are not
as good as they were formerly, they
probably need new mantles or other
attention.
If your stoves do not give out
heat as formerly, the openings may
want cleaning out.
Architects should plan for lib
eral-sized gas pipes in all houses,
even if other illumination is contem-
plated.
Large gas pipes should be put in
all houses, because gas is used in
more rooms than was formerly the
custom, and because heating and
cooking stoves are largely used now
and are mostly placed at the far
thest distance from the meter and
need a full.fow of gas.
Builders and owners of new
houses should see that gas pipes are
put in every house, because pur-
chasers OF renters will expect to
have the advantage of competition
in illumination, even if they do not
want to use gas at present
Houses will sell better or rent
better if they have gas pipes in
them.
Gas consumers should watch their
own meters so as to be satisfied with
their bills; meters are so simple that
any intelligent person can read them
and thus know the cost Of their gas
as time passes.
Housekeepers should admit no one
to their houses on the pretense of
being sent from the Gas Office un-
less the applicant is personally
known or can show the silver badge
and the lettered cap of company.
All houses should have an outside
light burning all night to illuminate
, their side and back buildings, and
should also keep some lights burn
ing all night in rooms and halls to
keep off burglars it is far better to
use few thousand extra feet of gas
each year than to have the house
robbed once.
Dollar gas makes the cheapest,
best and safest light, and the most
convenient fuel yet produced.
Now is the time to order Cooking
Ranges for Summer; ample hot
water for family bathing can be
= supple with them, while the tenn
y perature of the kitchen is bearable
and the remainder of the house left
o cool and comfortable.
! For further advice or information
apply at Gas Office, S27 Market
street, where Sample Lights, Stoves
and Ranges can be seen.

In Blunt's Annotated Book of Com
mon Prayer" the priests address to the
woman, according to the Salisbury use is
given as "Vis habore hume virum in spon
sum, ct oi obedire ct servirc," etc. Tho
words of betrothal in the present marriage
service are said by the same authority 10
be substantially identical with those which
have been used in England from ancient
times. Examples of variations arc given
to illustrate the language in which the
betrothal promises were made from about
the thirteenth to the sixteenth century.
In the Salisbury use the woman is di-
rected TO say, "In sykenesse and hin elthe
to be honour and buxum." Bonour Is ex-
planned by the learned annotator 10 be

be form of boughsome-i. c., plant or

Hereford uso is, "Yn sckenes and helthe
