Sporting Term "Recover the ashes’ uieans to I win a return contest after a previous defeat.

The body will be cremated and the ashes taken to Australia." o Observing Rainbows The rainbow nitty appear to be of varying size. It is always seen along the <ircmnference-tof a circle whose center is on a straight line with the e.ve of the observer’, hence no two persons see strictly the same bow. The width of the colored bands increases as the size of the raindrops decreases. o— Stepping Rooster’s Crowing Nothing is entirely efficacious to stop the crowing of roosters. A good plan is to place the rooster's roost so that when he stretches up to crow he will strike his head gently on the roof. This will stop ; iiis crowing. —o .. Why the Apostrophe? The apostrophes in our ordinary possessive case —as in "Rob ert’s book"—ls a relic of "Ills."
