COKE AS DOMESTIC FUEL, AND HOW 1 0 USE IT WANTED Known— Coke may be used either in a grate or range. In making the fire a little coal should be used first, and then the coke on top. In renewing the I fire, rake out the ashes, put a little coal (slack will do very well), then place coke or the cinders on top ; the coke should be not larger than an egg, and will burn better if damped; coke and coal should be mixed together for a range. If, instead of throwing on half a scuttlefull at a time, the coke (foi a grate fire) is put on piece by piece with the tongs, it will repay the trouble, giving a clean brilliant fire, and throwing a much greater heat than coal alone, and at much less cost. May be had of all coal dealers and wholesale and retail at the Welligton, Coke and Coal Depot, Tory-street. S AMU EI '.BROWN.
