When from any cause there is diff
ficulty in slipping ring over the
finger joint pass the end Of piece
of fine Irvine under the ring, pull
an inch or so of the Irvine toward
the hand and wind the rest of it
around the finger upward nearly to
the nail. Take hold Of the end
nearest the hand and unwind it
gradually, when the ring will slide
slowly off. If the experiment does
not succeed the first time it should
be tried again with a longer piece
Of string.
Toasted Bread and Bacon.
First cut the bacon thin, then cut
as many slices Of bread as there are
pieces of bacon, leaving the bread
nearly an inch larger all around
than each slice Of bacon. Trim off
the hard crusts. Set the bread in
a dripping pan, lay slice of bacon
upon each piece Of bread and set in
a hot oven, where it will cook in
from two to six minutes. AS soon
as the bacon is well crisped transfer

An Improvement on Lookout"

Hes what they call crow" said
a welI-informed police witness at
Brentford OF certain youth, explain
ing that :crow'' is one who stands
on guard willie, his associates are busy
robbiAg, to warn them of approach
ing police os other undesirablese The
word is thieves slang of considera-
BILE standing. In 1862, for instance,
The Cornh:ll Magazine mentioned it
as the technical term for woman
who kept slch 4 watch for a burglar.
An explanation that at once suggests
itself is that this confederate is ex-
pected to -'crow" or give some warn
ing noise, But the word may well point
to some study Of natural history in
criminal circles. Those familiar
crows :ooks-are accustomed to
post sent.nels to signal the coming
of danger.-London Chornicle.
