"Brang your own jam pot«," is tho latest edict of London grocers. ]n some areas jam is among the rationed articles of food, and when tho allowance works out at a pound and threequarters, for instance, it lias to bo specially weighed out. Many people, however, do not appreciate the. extra trouble involved, and whon a grocer made the usual request to one woman she indignantly retorted. "I suppose the next tiling will bo that you will expect us to bring our own frying pans to carry homo tho bacon." Percy Kirkby was before tho court yesterday on remand, charged with tho theft of stores from the Government steamer Hinemoa, and was further remanded for eight days, on the application of tho defendant's counsel.
