with hot water and a sponge wash the
canework so that it may be thoroughly
soaked. If the canework is badly soiled
use little soap. Dry in the air and it
will be as good as new.
To remove a grease spot from wooden

Then polish with piece of felt dipped

Upon the whole, this jubilee of
1897, in which the civilized world
will join hearts and hands with
Great Britain, will not alone cele-
brate the cofonation of the Eng
lish Queen sixty years ago, but it
will celebrate the march of pro-

that period towards the lettering
of the condition of the human
race.
Every loyal Britain, when he
drains his glass at table, rises and
drinks toast to his Sovereign,
Here's to the Queen: God bless
her." So the English-speaking
people throughout the world will
bless this good woman on the day
of the Jubilee.

Last Sunday morning there was
a break in the levee near Conrad's
Point below Baton Rouge which
has developed into quite a crevasse
and which will put several parish
es under water. 1t is almost be-
yond comprehension how levee
should be allowed to break under
the circumstances. The river had
fallen considerably, but we under
stand that the vigilance that
should have been maintained.until
the water was within the banks
had been relaxed. This was Grim
inal in the face of past experience
and in the face of the warning
given by the Governor, who spec
tally dwelt upon the dangers to be
encountered in a falling river in
his address published some weeks
ago. This lesson should be treas
tired up by our people along the
river, and they should remember
in future high water fights not to
disarm until the last yestige of
has passed away.
