GENERAL NEWS

*Barley Scomes.

Lady Rhonoda, speaking at the Economy Exhibition" said that some people still thought they ought to bare white bread. She believed that some doctora were being pestered with requente to aive dertificates for white bread. "It is most unpatriotic." sbe added. "If they don't like the. war bread they should get some barley four and make some bar- ley Boones. It is not necesesTY to bave white bread; in fact, before the war many people used to tell us we were not right in baring white brend." Mro. Budson Lyall said she did not think it was generally known that there would be a very serione shortage of tea before long. "If we go on as we are at present,” abe added, “we shall not have any tos st all at Christmas. Let gs cut down a cap bere'snd neop thereland take our ten wesker.

The Ladies' Gallery in the House. Although no definita announce- meat has been officially made that the grille in front of the Ladies' Gallery in the House at Commone is to be removed, fol. lowing the recent agitation in favour of that course, that's de- finite and favourable decision bas been reached is indicated in the fact that asopplementary estimate providing for the cost of the work

as been duly prepared, eub. mitted to, and #pproved by the Treasury, and was publiebed recently as a Parliamentary White Paper. This caly et cut the original cuimats and the revised estimate of the smcust to be epent on maintenance and repsire of Parliament buildings for the year 1917-18, and then follows: -"Maintenance and Repaire.- For the removal of as grille in the Ladies' Gallery in the Homes of Commone, „£5.”

The sight of a ballorn about to come down in the neighbour- hood caused all reria and con ditions of people, from cook shop women to grave lawyera, Ind Lincoln's Inn toran belter-ekelter inta Holborn so as to be in at the death. A general cheer was raised when the car trached the gronad and the seronauts got out. The sna shone brjabily on the strange yellow obstractifn which seemed": Es fit the street with hardly a foot' to spare, so appropriate were the dimensions of the balloon to ita environment. But the spectacle was soon over; a few pulle brought the slready fligging volu6, decreasing. at each baal, lower sad lower, until little remained to the sense of sight and not much to that of smell.

German Gold and Diamonds.

All gold and diamonds in private possession it was en- Dounced recently, were to be confi-cated by the authorities in Westphelis. For monthe there have been ineresting indications. in the Germán papers of the immediate recessity for gold. Up to the present time the Gor." rament has con-idered argent appeale in the press sufficient, but it is evident that fresh sup- plise of gold are now imperative in order to keep up the steadily diminishing reserve. Themtuation has become more serioas owing to large gold exports to Holland. Tie
