LONDON MARKET
NERVOUS BUT HELD

LONDON. Oct. B.-Operators on the

Although the settlement was concluded
without any actual failures. certain diff

business transacted was not sufficient to
withstand the potent influences, includ-

closed steadier.
Americans opened weak on New York

moderately steady at parity. Later,

II will be seen from the musical nota-
ton. sent herewith, that Sir Charles has
written the melody in forms that in
crease in length from the first quarter
To the hour. and which also have suffi-
cient variety TO prevent monotony. At
the end Of the completed chime the
hour is struck on the big tenor bell.
Not Easy Task.
To write melodious chimes may seem
to be easy. because of the brevity of the
melodies. Musicians know, however,
that II is just the simplicity and the
brevity which constitute the difficulty
The aim is TO write something that
constant repetition will not make tedi-
Gus. Sir Charles V. Stanford thought It
desirable to submit what he had written
TO Sir Walter Parratt, master of the
Kings musIc, before 1t was actually set
to the bells. The chimes have also been
approved by Sir G. Hubert II. Parry
professor OF music at oxford, and direc-
tor of the Royal College Of Music.

Ability to Wash Dishes


Can be taken as a sure test of a maid g
ncatness. carcfuIness and adaptability, for
it is not the simple process some would be-
lieve and not every one can wash them
acc ptably.
one Of the primal ventures in a wel-ors
dered household is the duty of dish wash
ing and if you are in doubt as to what you
nav expect from your new maid observe
when and how she washes the dishes after
the first meal she serves. Then you Will
know lust what you may depend upon IN
everything else she does. II she tumbles
all the dishes In at once or If she neslects TO
change the water when it has become con
and dirty she is not neat, and unless you
wish TO train her you will dispense with
he.' services.
This is the science OF good dish washing,
First, do not allow any length of time 10
clause after the meal before the soiled
dishes are removed. Have everything ready
before the washing begins. Make a Saos
with soap and not too much soda. Inc
soap must not be left IT the water. Glass
must always be washed first, next the fine
cups and saucers take their turn and any
other pieces of fine china. Following these
| comes the silver Then the things that are
| least greasy and finally the large meat
| dishes and the pots and kettles.
Everything, of course, has been maze
ready, plenty of drying towels. towels FOR
| the glassware, wash clotn, mopS Tor soap
| the ammonia and a knife cleaner. 1t is a
| &c cd plan to put dishes of one kind in at
one time and of another the next. Every
| glass should be emptted before 1t is placed
| in the pan. which is a rule that applies TO
| other dishes. Any dishes that have had
milk In should be rinsed before they go INTO
| the dish water.
After the dishes have drained awhile, hot
water poured over them cleanses and rem
| ders them easier to dry. The silver should
be placed in fresh suds and the different
| lines Of dishes should be submitted to the
| same treatment. Dishes must never be left
lying In the water and the pan should not
be crowded First it retards progress and
renders breakage more Imminent. Delicate
! china placed in hot water Will surely crack.
II the day Is exceedingly busy and some
thing must be neglected do not allow that
son ething to be the dishes.
Wax Candles
Improve by keeping q few months. If wax
candles become discolored or soiled they
| can easily be cleaned by rubbing them over
with a clean flannel dipped in spirits of
wine. When lighting candle always hold
| the match TO the side of the wick, and not
Oh the top of It, as is generally done Can

| unless they are firmly fixed In fiat candle
| stick and even then they must be carried

| In Town Houses
Ferns, palms and ivy growths which
adorn the rooms quite spoiled In appear

them. Ornamental foliage in rooms should
