Cake tins and molds are frequently very difficult to get clean after they have been used. A reliable method of thoroughly cleaning them is to mix a quantity of whiting and water to a smooth paste. This should be smear ed well over the tin and then left to dry. Rub with a chamois leather or a very soft cloth and a beautiful polish will result. Any of the powder which sticks should be brushed off. If the tins are very soiled or greasy, rub them with powdéred bath-brick mixed with water. ~ Germless Spitzbergen.

Mrs. D. Veno, Union Square, N.S. says: -- 'With a feeling of gratitude I write to tell you what Dr. Willfams' Pink Pills did for me. I had become badly run down, and reached the stage when I could not do my housework. I was not only weak, but my nerves seemed complétely shattered. The least noise would startle me and I was subject to nervous headaches. Worse still, I could not sleep at night. Perhaps I would get an hour or two sleep, and then le awake for the rest of the night. I had reached a stage when I actually feared 1 would lose my mind. Up to the time I decided to take Dr, ! Willlams' Pink Pills, nothing IT had { taken seemed. to do me any good. I got a few boxes of these and soon there was no doubt they were the medicine to help me. As I continued the use of the pills I gradually grew stronger, ate better and could sleep at. night, and now I am as well and strong as a woman could wish to be. I hope some other weak, nervous person will be benefitted by my experience."

Franz Schubert, like Beethoven, was accustomed to carry with him a note "book in which he could jot down musi: cal Meas as they happened to occur to him. Many a beautiful theme would have been lost had it not been for this practical habit of these great com- posers. There are times when the muse is asleep, when the tdeas will not come; then it 1s that such a note-book becomes valuable and. the. inspirations of other times may rouse the dormant muse, ... Wherever Schubert happened. to be, jin the city or in the flelds, in the i tavern or the beer garden, did a valu- able fdea occur to him, out came the note-book, and it was hastily scratched down for further treatment. When he was seized by an idea it must go down ion the first scrap of paper that came to hand. This wae the manner in which that beautiful and wellknown "Standchen" first appeared, though it vis also told of "Hark, the Lark." One Sunday, during the Summer of 1826, Schubert, with several friends, was strolling about among the subur- 'ban villages in the vicinity of Vienna. As was their custom, they stopped at a beer garden, where they sat chatting and enjoying the good company they found. Schubert picked up a book of poetry one of his acquaintances had laid down, and, after turning over the leaves, suddenly stopped and, pointing out a poem, explained: "Such a delici- ous melody has just come Into my head; if 1 but had a sheet of music paper with me!" i a few staves on the back of the bill-of- fare and passed it to him, and in the midst of the hubbub of a German beer garden Schubert wrote out that beauti- ful melody, Schubert's Serenade, that has pleased such a multitude of music lovers since his day. ai Where Eves Score.
