TORONTO "‘One finds again in this work," says Prof. Thiersch, "this man of resolute character, who did not shrink even from the sacrifice of his own flesh and blood." ‘"In his [Ahab‘s] days did Hiel the Bethelite build Jericho ; he laid the foundation thereof in Abirnam, his first born; and set up the gates thereof in his youngest son Begub." The inner wall, which is â€"badly preserved, is the original Canaanâ€" itish defence, which fell to the blast of Joshua‘s trumpets. The outer wall is identified as the work of Hiel, whose achievements are deâ€" scribed in the First Book of Kings : The chief work of the past year, he says, has been the laying bare of the great outer wall of the city, which is described as ‘‘something extraordinary, even in its present reduced stateâ€"something majestic and overwhelming.‘"" The excava~ tors found proof that this outer wall is Israelitish work.

In the Journal of the German Palestine Bociety Prof. Thiersch gives interesting particulars of furâ€" ther excavations carried out on the site of Jericho by Prof. Sellin. Purchase a few tin spoons, bend the handles double about an inch from the end. This will make them shorter and stiffer. Put one in each of the cans of soda, baking powder and all other powder inâ€" gredients that are measured by spoonfuls and see how convenient it will be, Most convenient work aprons are made by turning up the bottom on the right side to form a generous pocket, stitching once up the cenâ€" tre to hold in place. When setting the house in order in the morning these aprons save many steps. The top of & child‘s stocking is usually the first place to show signs of wear. If the new stockings are lined down as far as the knee, the garter fastening will not tear it so quickly. Do not fasten the lining at the lower edge, as this would make an ugly seam., In washing muslin curtains they will look more sheer if you boil two quarts of wheat bran in six quarts of water for half an hour and strain and mix in the water in which the curtains are to be washâ€" ed. Rinse lightly in clear, cold waâ€" ter and dry. > If a garment becomes badly soilâ€" ed with perspiration, put it in soft, lukewarm water and wash with Inâ€" dian meal instead of soap. This will remove stains of long standing if the meal is well rubbed into the soiled places with your hands. To renovate and brighten gilt frames of pictures or mirrors, wash them very gently with a small sponge moistened with spirits _ of wine or oil of turpentine. The sponge must be sufficiently wet to remove dirt and fly marks. For painted valls dissolve two ounces of borax in two quarts of water. Add ons tablespoonful of ammonia. Use half this quantity to each bucket of water. Do not use soap. Rub with clean towels till dry. _ In warming a steamed pudding or in steaming a stale cake never put the article on & fiat dish. Place the pudding in a colander in the steamer, and you will be surprised how light and delicate it will beâ€" come.
