to the pronunciation of the judges name.
"How do you pronounce his name,
any way?" said Lawyer Barrow to Lawyer
Burres, the other day. "Is it Slough to
rhyme with tough?"
"No," said Burres. II think it is
Slough to rhyme with dough-"
SIS it?" said Lawyer Stone, "I
thought it was Slough to rhyme with
cough-at least always speak of him as
Judge 'Stoff.'"
II guess I'm wrong, then," said Law
yer Myers. 81 always call him Slough
to rhyme with through-Judge Stoo,

said Lawyer Maxwell, "but supposed
his name rhymed with plough"
"Maybe it rhymes with hiccouRh after
ALL" rejoined Barrow, "and is pronoun-
ced S.upp."-Chicago Tribune.

How to Mend Granite Ware Cooking
Utensils.
1t sometimes happens that granite
saucepan or chatting dish gets fall, and
in this fall bit of the granite enamel
is loosened and finally peels off. Tht
dish is of little value, for a hole will
soon ensue. Granite is supposed to be
unmendable, but we have proved that
it can be mended. If the granite is not
weakened all around the hole copper
rivet, such as are used by harness max
ers, may be used to fill up the break
There are different sizes of the rivets.
and they come with small head, some
thing like carpet tacks. The rivet prop
er is slipped through the hole in the
granite and then over the end that pass
es through is slipped copper washer
(Which comes with the rivet), then
with few taps of a tack hammer the
rivet is fattened down on the washer
This effectually mends the break in the
granite and makes it practically as good
as new.
If only a very small hole is found, q
bit of copper wire is used to mend it.
The wire is slipped through the hole,
after being cut the right length, and
then with tack hammer it is flattened
ON both sides of the granite vessel which
is being operated upon.
The process is so simple that even 9
woman who is doing light housekeep.
ing need not fear to undertake it, pro
viding she can strike straight blow
with a hammer, which women are no,
supposed capable Of doing. Though il
may be among the new women. there
may be found few who can do this
The only thing to be avoided is strik
ing promiscuously upon the granite sur
face and SO scaling more Of the ename
off.
The mending is almost as simple al
the old method Of putting rag into {
hole to mend it.
