GLASS UTENSILS.

A New York glass manufacturer
is experimenting with the making
of cooking utensils of glass. Already
glass percolators and stewpans have
been made which, although they rest
on the flames, give no evidence of
cracking and have proved heat-resist-
ing and nonexpansive. These uten-
sils are apparently not affected in
any way by the intense heat under
them or by the contrasting tempera-
lures of the articles which they con-
tain. Glass is for many reasons su-
perior to either enamel or aluminium,
being affected by none of the acids
or alkalies formed or used in cook
ing and not subject to the insanitary
cracking which is characteristic of
most enameled ware.

HOLDS CABBAGE REAL ESTATE
Pennsylvania Judge Renders a Deei-
sion That Seems to Border on
the Ludicrous.

Wonders never cease in American
law, remarks the Pittsburgh Press.
Here comes a judge in our own state,
trying a case Of a man who entered
his neighbours garden and pinched a
head of cabbage The judge decides
that it was not larceny of personal
property at all, and hence not a basis
Of criminal action but the cabbage
heads are real estate, and that the
neighbours remedy is to bring civil
action contesting title. We have
eaten garden truck-spinach and let
tuce, for instance-which tasted like
real estate. But we never knew be-
fore that to steal it was not theft
And after cabbage head is eaten
what good is the title2 Now, if it
had been a franchise or an election
that was stolen, it would have been
less surprising in the law to let the
culprit go free; but who would ever
have thought that the science of ju-
dicial hair-splitting would finally be
successfully invoked to protect
plain, everyday cabbage thief?

SMALL COMFORT IN PROMISE
Psrson Readily Agreed to Preach Fu
neral Sermon, but insisted He
Must Speak the Truth.

In preaching funeral sermons cler-
gymen often have a hard course to
steer, but here is an instance where
it was all plain sailing.
The Rev. E. B., who flour
ished in a rural district in the west
Of England a good many years ago,
was strictly honest but painfully
frank old man. One dey he was
approached by one Bill M, a
man of doubtful reputation, who
said:
~Look zee here, pazzon, / want to
make a request Of zee, an tits this !:
| want ZEE to promise you'll preach
my funeral sermon, if so be you out
live me-"
"Why, certainly, Bill-certainly."
Gan | want zee to preach it from
the words, AN honest man is the
noblest work of Cod"
'I'll do it, Bill-I'll do it for you
with pleasure" replied the parson.
"And III add that Pm sorry there's
such very poor specimen in the
coffin"
