Young NavIgators.

As approached Manikuagon Point,
opposite the red hght-ship, warning
vessels off that dangerous shoal, saw a
very small boat standing in from the
open sea, SO far off that it seemed as
if it must have come up out of the sea,
and did not appreciate the dangers
about it As we both approached the
beach, ! saw that it contained a man
and two children-a bright-eyed boy
about eight years old and a girl about
ten. Tho man jumped from the bow
into the surf and pushed the boat of,
while directing the little boy at the
stern in a gruff, sea-worn voice:
"Heave away, lad: get your oar over
to starboard, or she'll swing around.
Now, Mary, shove her head over
hurry up! don't you see that heavy
swellP Hold hard! Now get hcr head
about, quick as you can. That's it.
Haul in your sheet And at last
those little mites were standing out to
sea again, and settling themselves
down in the stern-sheets as composed
ly as they might sit down on a door
sill.
Where on earth, sir, are your chill
dren going, alone, and on this stormy
coastP viii you ever see them againP''
40 yes. sir" he replied, smiling;
they are used to q boat; they are tax
ing some seals have just brought in
from the nets down to the next bay;
it's only few miles. We don't think
much about such dangers; but We are
| perhaps little too venturesome some
times. One of my friends on Anti
cost sent his two boys to take the
boat across the mouth of their bay for
load of hay. A squall came up so
| heavy that the boat could not beat in
to shelter. and they were carried out
to sea- Nothing was ever seen of
them afterward. Here he scanned
the horizon, and looked after his own
boat with o thoughtful expression.
''But with this fair wind the children
will soon reach home. We have an
other danger besides the weather:
sharks are dangerous here; they some
times follow boat for hours. and now
| and then they capsize her and take q
man down. At least we suppose
1t must be done by the sharks. Last
year, right out there, an Indian was
after seal; pretty soon we saw him
stand up and fight something in the
water with his paddle. In q minute
his canoe capsized and he went under.
| When we got there all we found was
his canoe stove in amidships-"
"But that seems more like the ae-
ton Of the deVil-fish. !"
'Well, yes. but we have never seen
any deyil-fish here, and there are plen-
ty of sharks. &C H. FdTnhanl, IL.

Paris to BE q Seaport.
lFaris letter.


The old idea of making Paris seaport,
ventilated in 1925, has again been taken
up by an engineer, NJ Bouquet de la
Grye, who is q member of the institute.
He proposes to deepen the Seine between
Rouen, where large vessels can sail or be
toWed up from the sea, and Poissy. q
pleasant summer resort of many Paris
ians, within easy distance of the metropo-
lis. The distance to be deepened is some
thing over ninety-three miles The pro
jector, however, says nothing of the
dangers likely to result from the numer
Gus islands which stud the Seine between
Poissy and Rouen, and which would rem
der river navigation exceedingly danger
Gus for vessels of large tonnage, such as
those that pick their way so carefully from
Havre to kouen.
The cost OF deepening the Seine, with
its tortuous windings between Poissy and
the Norman town, is estimated at $780,
600, 600 The engineers who, In 1925,
conceived this gigantic plan spent SO, 900
in studying the problem, but their iabors
were interrupted by the revolution of
$780, and the project has been since in
allegiance.

The Medical View Of Roller Skating.
CA1adiooI paoord

1t seems as if America were peculiarly
susceptible to epidemic influences of
mental kind. We hear of no other coun-
try so violently perturbed by waves" of
temperance crusading, religious revivalst
velocipede craZes, pedestrianism, and,
finally, roller skating, upon which latter
pastime the thought and feelings of three
fourths of the rising generation are at
present conferred. In intensity and ex
tent, the roller skating mania has far ex-
ceeded all its predecessors, and 1t must be
inferred. either that the psychological con
tagium is particularly strong, or that the
susceptibility of young America to affec-
tive epidemic influences is increasing
Modern scientists of the "Psychical
Research" school are putting forward the
theory of brain waves as possibly potent
element in The production of panic fears
and epidemic fashions and feelings. The
mind acts "exoneurally, we are told and
the vibrating brain cells of the enthusiast
tic roller skater communicate their rhyth-
mical pulsations to the previously insen-
sitive spectator. Whatever the mechan-
ism. there is certainly at present a NOR
bidly exaggerated passion for, and indul-
gence in. roller skating. And the ques-
ton comes home to the physician,
whether it is doing any physical or men
tai harm.
On the whole, we are inclined to take a
rather lenient view of the present craze
Considerable inquiry has failed to elicit
any facts showing that roller skating
temperately INDUCED in, does any harm
TO growing children, or produces any dis.
eases and injuries peculiar to the sport
Severe sicknesses have been known to re-
suit from violent exercise in hot, i'll ven
