MENDINC CHINA.
China may be mended as firmly as a rock by the following recipe:—Two persons will be needed for the work, however, for the manipulation must be rapid. The necessary materials are a little unslaked lime, pulveri.-ed; the slightly-beaten white of an egg, and a small hair brush, such as is used for mucilage. Put the white of eggs on the broken edges of both pieces to be joined, and imme*liately du-t one edge with the powdered lime : put the two edges accurately and firmly together, hold in place for a minute or two, and then lay aside to dry.
Irene odd-time rival,: ‘Maud, dear, that’s a lieautirul ring on your finger. May I ask how mueh it cost ?’ Maud , maliciously,: • I didn't a-k Harry how much it cost. Irene, love.’ Irene sweetly,: • I always had a curiosity to know, tt hen I wa- wearing it mvself, vou know, I couldn't verv well a-k him. " 3
