A peculiar process of hatching eggs is adopted in China, The eggs are placed in tiers in large baskets twice the size of an ordinary barrel; thickly lined with hay, and carefully closed from the air by a tight fitting cover or straw.: In three days’ time the eggs are taken out and replaced in different order, those at the surface being put in the lowest tier. This is repeated every third day for a fortnight when the eggs are: removed from the basket and placed oh a shelf in another room, being carefully covered with bran. In a day or two the chicken chips the shelland makes its appearance. The success of the method is attributed to the',faetthattheanimal heat of the eggs being retained by the basket, * which is formed of non-conducting material, is sufficient to support animal life and foster its development.

Simple Fire-Extinguishers can be produced by anybody at a slight cost, says a German paper. Dissolve two pounds of common salt and one pound of sal-am-monic in two qnarts of water, or in these proportions, and fill the mixture in quart bottles of thin glass. The extinguishers thus prepared are suitable to smother small fires. The bottles, which should be securely corked up and sealed, to prevent the contents from evaporating, are thrown into the flames of the starting fire or its immediate vicinity with enough vehemence to cause them to break.

Scott’s Wa-hae, Wa-ha, Wa-hoo (Loasby’s). More enthusiasm. We get numberless letters, thanking us for the benefit that Loasby’s Wahoo confers upon dyspeptics, who spend their half-crowns rightly. One of the latest and best known is Mr W. Berry, of Woodlands, near Invercargill. This gentleman was a sufferer for over two years from indigestion, sick headache, depressed spirits, pains in chest and back, and was quite unfit for work. He started and took every advertised remedy in turn. They all failed until Loasby’s Wahoo was taken. Result—- “ Never has anything been made to equal it,” is how his letter ends. Mr Berry’s experience of Loasby’s Wahoo will be yours. There is no need to suffer. and muscular pains is the very best embrocation made for athletes and cyclists. Post free for 2s to any part of New Zealand. Loasby’s Wahoo Mfg. Co., Ltd., Dunedin.—(Advt)
