The scoId's Bride.

A recent traveller in England, stroll.
ing through a small museum, declared
that the suffragettes had much need
To work in a country where such q
thing had ever, yes, ever, been per-
nitted And she pointed scornfully to
scold's bride, or Drank, which was
unblushingly presented for exhibition
III the Stockport collection.
The label attached affirms that:
This Drank was formerly used to
check the tongues of refractory wom-
en-. The gag, containing nine pins,
was put into the culprits mouth, the
collar was clasped about the neck and
fastened by the hasp to the back. By
the chain and strap the woman was
led through the market-place.
1t appears that a certain squire
named Chester, of the town of Wal
ton, presented the authorities with the
Drank, in revenge for his own suffer
ing through a ''gossiping. lying wom-
an" On it he caused TO be placed the
following inscriptions:
Chester presents Walton with a bride

Salt is excellent for cleaning the

nickel will wear off. On no account
should aluminium or nickel ware ever
be washed in the ordinary way. To
clean it, rub with soft paper till the
paper remains clean after using. When
cold, fry piece of fat in il, and then
rub as before. This, by the way,
should always be done TO a new pan.

FOLLOWING up five years of active

Estimated Growth of Gotham Population

All OF these estimates are based, or
course, on rapid-transit betterment,
and according to the compiler's own
words: The only thing that can seri-
ousIy retard the growth and prospect
ty of New York city will be the failure
to provide proper transit facilities"
According to the estimate, Manhat-
tan will never have a. population OF
more than 100000. In stating this
Mr.. Caccavajo explains: That the
population of Manhattan will decrease
is beyond dispute Within a very few
years there will be practically no resi-
Dental population south of Fifty-ninth
street, leaving less than 5000 acres TO
house the residents of the borough, or
an average of more than 500 persons
to the acre.
THE rapid progress uptown of bust
ness buildings points to an early and
much to be desired solution of the
city's great social problem, the cons
gested East side tenement districts;
as within decade property south OF
Fourteenth street, and probably south
OF Thirty-fourth street, will have be-
come too valuable for use for residen-
tial or tenement house purposes"
Mr. Caccavajo evidently expects
Brooklyn and Queens to profit largely
from Manhattan's loss, for there he
places the greatest number of resi-
dents in 1910. The Bronx, according to
his figures, will have the largest popu-
lation per acre, while Staten island
with its great area is expected to have
only quarter of million residents.
In his summary Mr.. Caccavajo
shows that there are still available in
the entire city 10000 acres OF land.
not including parks, cemeteries and
swamp lands.

Words to the Wise.

After each meal, rub on the spots
left from coffee butter, etc, lump
of magnesia or starch. A little of such
care will make the cloth last twice as
long without washing.
To make French toast it is not
enough to toast the bread and serve
with the white sauce. After toasting,
if the bread is stale dip ii in hot wa

When cooking with sour milk use an
egg heater to stir up the curds. Beat
thoroughly, or until the curds and

that sour taste and smell is avoided,

dost thou lack?"
Whereupon his orderly, who. un-
