"There Is an expression common
among sailors abiding to the division
of the watch bet ween A aud s O'Clock

dog Watches each of two hours. 1t
is commonly said that the expression
is derived from the idea of a dog sleep

to have a classical origin-the double
headed dog of Yama, called the four
eyed (cvanau C aturaks au); whilst
one head slept the other Kept watch.

Agricultural

The Sugar Beet.
The following hints regarding b
beet are from The Sugar Beet:
Recent experiments upon beet-seed
show that the terminating qualities
depend upon the changes their oily
substances have undergone through
the Y g of the air. If seeds have
absorbed too much moisture, or ifthey
have been gathered too soon, they are
not easily preserved. A good seed in
one locality is not necessarily good In
another, hence the importance of pro-
ducing the seed in those districts
where it is to be sown. The larger the
seed, within reasonable limits, the
better the quality. Many recommend
heavy seed; the lighter ones should,
in fact, be rejected. A curious fire
test fol- the terminating qualities of
beet-seed has been suggested. 1t con-
sists in submitting the seed to heat
ifit burns without noise or disturbance
it may be considered of a poor quality.
Sugar beets, in the colder climates, go
to seed only after the second year as
the flower forms so does the sugar di-
minish in warmer climates beets
frequently go to seed the first year.
Hence the impossibllity Of profltably
growing these roots in the Southern
States for other purposes than stock
food. When selecting mother roots
for seeding purposes give preference to

Notes and Queries.
Makers Of Violins.

At present, SO far as the writer
knows, only one English violin maker
has had the honor of coming down to
posterity in verse. This is Young,
who lived In ST. Panl's Churehyard,
in 1928, and who. together with his
son, formed the subject of the follow
ing catch, by Purcell:
"You scrspers that want a good fiddle, well
strung,
You must go to the man tina is old while he's
Young;
But If his same fiddle you fain would play
bold,
You must go to his son, who'll be Young
when he's old.

You call Me the Light, and you do
not look to Me.
You call Me the Way, and you do

Sewer Gas in Houses.

Professor Kerr, Ia a late address be-
fore the British Civil and Mechanical
Engineers Society, expressed views
on the sewer-gas question very similar
to those urged by Drs. Hamilton and
Doremus, OF this city, in the discus
sion of the same question here last
March. They knew, said Professor
Kerr, that gas was generated by the
decomposition of the decaying matter
in sewage when deposited, in however
slight a degree, upon any interior sur
face. What followed? They knew
this gas had two qualities which were
extremely obnoxious; n quality
was that it assembled to the highest
level by reason of deficient specific
gravity and the second quality was
that when it reached the highest level
it exercised a pressure, being an ex-
tremely elastic gas. He need scarcely
point out the effect OF these two con-
siderations. When the sewer-gas "a
ulost tAccllcut hahhCt "Atho"0 guns
into particulars as to whether it should
be called gas or vaper the name
sewer gas carried an idea of offensive
ness which was extremely convent
ent)-when the sewer gas had reached
the highest level, it exercised a pow
| erful elastic pressure to force its way
out, and succeeded in forcing its way.
1t got into the house and If there
were no other grievance, there was
this to complain of-that this pestifer.
Gus and poisonous gas forced its way
| from the sewers into u houses, and
of course reached the vital organs OF
those who occupied it.

AS H WIND BLOWS.

The VIM blows north, the wind blows south
rhe wind blows east ana west;
No matter how the free wind blow,
Some ship will find It best;
Some one out on the wide, wide sea
Shouts with a happy air;
"Hoi ghipmates, no set all the sails,
The win is blowing fsiri"
One ship sails out into the east,
Another to the west;
One has to struggle fierce and hard,
BY wind and waves oppressed,
Under bare masts, tossed to and fro,
BY rain and salt spray wet;
The other flies before the gale
With all her white sails set.

"You can't have me, aunt" Cliff
Forester had explained, laughingly,
when Mrs. Russell asked him down to
Broadbeach, ''unless you have King.
He's the best fellow going tip-top on
charades and that sort of thing far
more good than I am to keep people
amused"
Accordingly, that night, Cliff was
the bearer of a highly-perfumed,
dsintily-tinted missive, requesting the
pleasure of Mr.. Kings company at
the merry-makings at Broadbeach.
King and FORESTER had been close
friehds since boyhood. AT school, at
college, and even now in business,
they occupied desks side by side.
Their friendship was a subject of re-
mark among those who knew them;
people said it would last until one of
them fell in love, and then it would
ole a sudden death. In the meantime,
however, it fiourished with its accus-
toned vigor.
King lived with an uncle. a gentle
man thirty-eight, rich, handsome, fas-
cinating and single. They occupied
chambers in regular bachelor style,
situated in the heart of the city. 1t
was said no feminine foot had yer
crossed their threshold that all with
in was dedicated to strictly masculine
pursuits.
Broadbeach was a large villa MI.
Russell lad ought to spend his sum
mers in accompanied by his family
and as many friends as could be stow
ed away under its hospitabie roof. An
invitation to Broadbeach was looked
upon as one of the things which makes
life worth living, for the Russells
spared nothing which could in any
way add to its many attractions.
1t was not surprising then that
when King received his invitation he
resolved, either by fair means or foul,
to go; and as he and Cliff had had
more leave of absence than they could
rightfully claim he was obliged to
draw on his powers of invention, with
what success we already know.
The young men arrived in the nick
of time! Everybody had been on the
scene of action q day or two, but nc
great spirit had arrived who was ca
pable of filling the part of master o.
ceremonies. Such q post was just ia
Ernest Kings liking and not a week
had passed before he was pronounced
on all sides a decided acquisition.
Among the guests was a young lady
Bessie Norton by name, who hat
known Ernest as a child. Between
the two there still existed a careles
brother and sister affection. though
nothing more. Bessie was very pretty
