LOUIS RAYMOND,

"PRAISE FOR BRAY: Essex made a dour fight at Lestou against Worcestershire, but, although they prolonged the game until dve minutes past five, ther suffered defeat by forty-two runs. Worcestershire, in registering this success, gained their first win in the County Championship since thes beat Middlesex by six wickets in June. 1927. Victory seemed in sight for Essex at the tea interval, as with four wickets in hand they needed only eighty-one runs, but Root and Gilbert, with the new ball, decided the issue, when play was resumed, the last four batsmen being put out for thirty-eight."

DIFFERENT WAYS WITH»

FISH.

It is hard sometimes to know what to do to get any variety in the cooking of fish.

Here are a few ways that perhaps you have not thought of..

The combination of fish and fruit sounds a bit alarming, but you will be quite satisfied with the experi-

ment.

Choose as many small eod. atexks as there are people to be served. Season with pepper and salt and dip in beaten eggs and cover well with white bread crumbs.

Now allow a banana for each steak, and cut each in halves lengthwise, dredge with flour and placed in a buttered baking dish. Sprinkle with a little sugar and a few drops of lemon juice. Bake for ten minutes in a moderate oven.

Fry the steaks in butter and place in a dish with two slices of banana on each. Serve with Hollandaise

JEWELLED FOB BROOCHES.

Fab brooches with a watch on the end are newer than jewelled wrist watches.

They are of old types, some quite elaborate, and looking like an elaborated brooch rather than a fob.

One, shaped like a cigarette and of about the same size, is covered with diamonds in various cuttings and sizes. A miniature watch-face is concealed at the pendant end.

Another fob the watch "conceal- ed in a half-melon shape composed of onyx decorated with diamonds- is formed of delicate onyx strips in imitation of silk cord,

The strips hang from two dia- mond and ruby bows worn an inch or two apart, so that they form a "V." At the base of the "the two cords are caught together by a jewelled slide, and from this bangs the watch.

JUDGE AND ACTOR TWICE DIVORCED.

TO-DAY & TO-MORROW

“I see that this is the second time that this man has had a decree against bim," said Mr. Justice Hill in the Divorce Court when he granted a decree nisi, with costa, to Mra. Yvette Julietta Lloyd, an actress; of Wymering-mansion, Maida Vale, because of the miscon duct of her husband, Mr. Frederick William Lloyd, an actor, with a woman unknown.

Mr. Justice Hill complained of the dificulty he experienced in hearing Mra Lloyd's evidence,

"Keep your voice up, and try to get it over the footlights," he told her. "Imagine that I am your audience."

He asked whether an attempt had been made to find the identity of the woman in the case.

"It is to be hoped that if this woman should have thought of marrying him," added Mr. Justice Hill, she will take warning, and will not do it."

Extraordinary disclosures of a man's three "marringes" made in the Probate Division, in an action brought by Mrs. Annie. Elizabeth Stonebridge, of Elling- ton-road Ramsgate.

She claimed to be the widow of William Stone- Mr. Frederick died intestate last May. The value bridge, a retired greengrocer, who

of the estate was stated to bo 21,400. Her claim to be entitled to this aum was contested by three

children of Mr. Stonebridge's first marriage.

They denied that Mrs. Stone bridge was the lawful widow, as they contended that their father's original wife, Alice Jane Mark well, whom he married in 1880, WAS alive when the "marriage | with Mrs. Stonebridge took place in August 1916,

Mr. Terence O'Connor, K.O., for the defence, said that there was no doubt that Mr. Stonebridge

committed bigamy twice.

Mr. Justice Hill: And there is apparently no doubt that he and the plaintiff in this action lived together for twelve years as man and wife. Apparently these children want to aggravate the wrong done to this woman by i denying her right to the money of the man with whom she lived as a wife for twelve years.

She is an entirely innocent party, and now these children want to deny her the position of widow.
