We £5 t> recommend those who do not w 9 use Coke to adopt tho following Uj W plan:—First, fend to the Gas * Company for a fow bags of their Household Coke; just the quantity that can be taken into the premises conveniently bear ing in mind that, weight for weight, coke is nearly double the bulk of coal. Next, having oleaned the grates of registers and range of ashes, pirtly fill them with coke (the larger, lumps may be used for this pur pose) ; upon this foundation lay your kindlings and local coals. Now start your fire, and re- Sleniflh often with small quanti es of local coals. Those who learn this, the A. B.
