From all these, their relations to England. TO

swarm OF questions Of the greatest delicacy and
intricacy, requiring no ordinary amount OF both
knowledge and diplomacy, not only to produce
good but to prevent evil. Fortunately, in the
person of the governor, His Excellency Sir
Cecil Smith, the empire has a man who COM

NOT QUITE FAST ENOUGH.
The only criticism / have ever heard passed
upon his attitude with regard to this group of
questions-and for a colonial to criticise his
governor is as natural to eat his dinner-is
that sometimes he does not go quite fast
enough Possibly he himself would regard
this as compliment, or perhaps there is some
restraining influence again behind him. 1t
must be remembered that it is in his power at

eye, Nelson-like, to the telescope. With one
matter, and, perhaps, the most important Of
all, that of the development OF the whole
peninsula by judicious railway constr uction,
his name will be always and most gratefully
connected. But this set of questions is SO varied,
so big and so unknown, that shall return to it,

There is considerable folly and nonsense
about keeping yourself in condition Most

good thing for young fellow to do who
wants to become a boxer is to join some worthy
athletic club of amateurs who hold sparring
contests every once in while. In short
while he will learn enough to put on the
gloves with some of his fellow members After
few bouts he will find out whether nature
intended him for a champion or not. For all
men are not born champions and young boxers
will discover this fact sooner or later.

BOXING AND QUARRELs.
1t has been argued by some narrow-minded
cranks as an objection to the study of boxing
that it leads men to be pugnscious, to seek en-
counters in order to show their superiority
with their fists. This is not true. ! know per-
sonallv of many instances where professional pu-
gilists have been positively insuted by weaker
men, and yet the boxer, having such perfect
self-possession OF his powers and not wishing
to take advantage of his helpless opponent, has

knows that public opinion is against him be-
cause he's member of the prize ring and. in
the second place, he does not consider it any

Two children romping in fowery field,
Gathering roses and berries red,
Thoughtless happy, the angel shield
OF innocence over each guileess head.
Midway the sun in a cloudless sky,
Fragrant the blossoms on bush and tree:
Farmers sowing their wheat and rye
To the song OF the bird and the hum Of the bee.
Out spake Malcolm 10 her at his side.
when I'm man farm / shall buy,
With wee white cot and pony 10 ride,
And then must marry before die"
Marian blushed at the gleesome thought,
Malcolm, and who will your good wife be-"
when my farm and my cot and my pony are
bought,
"why then. quoth Malcolm I've both shall see"
The young days came and the old days went,
The snow fell and melted again and again.
And ripe grew the blossoms boughs well bent
And warm shone the sun after winter and rain.
And Malcolm he owned the farm and the cot
While Marian dwelt in her home on the hill,
But IL seemed as II Malcolm the wife had forgot
Though the maiden remembered the lad words
still
Ahorse Jockey reared a colt for the fair,
The nag Was both trim and tidy OF make,
And Malcolm he tried him with skill and care,
And paid for him just what the jockey would
take.
"And now have bought farm and a cot,
pony and all that ask in life;
But one thing Is wanting yet, wot--
The maiden love must have for my Wife"
When the autumn fields we're mellow with grain
And the air was crisp both early and late,
The old church bell rang merry refrain,
For the bride Malcolm chose was his pretty play
mate.

FUNNY OLD SWORD GUARDS.
How They Illustrate the Tit Willow
Song and an English Nursery Poem.

The casual observer viewing the little col
lection of Japanese sword guards in glass
case at the National Museum would see moth
ing in them but few nearly round disks Of
brass. bronze and iron with some little design
upon each, slightly raised from the surface of
the metal
A student Of curios, however. will be inter-
ested to discover on one of the disks design
& very ancient one it is-representing a melan-
choly-looking bird seated on willow tree
branch and apparently gazing down with sad
refectiveness at stream that flows below
Upon seeing it you cannot mistake the pal
pable fact that the author of the ''Mikado," Mr..
GiIbert-in his search for ideas Japanese to
use in the opera-took from this source the
suggestion for the song:
"On tree by the river little tom-tit
Sang, willow-tit-willow-ti willow;
And said Little Glcky bird, why do you sit
Singing, NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS."
And so forth. The final suicide of the discon-
ISOLATE bird by drowning in the river below will
be remembered with pain. Doubtless there is
SOME JAPANESE LEGEND

quent design, though what i, is THE STAR re-
porter was not able to find out. The story
iliusIdlcu ny al e qutIly CURIOUS ucslBn on one
of the other sword guards was learned how
ever.
This latter represents gentleman in long
flowing robe, gazing interestedly upon frog
that Is in the act of leaping. The story. Of
great antiquity, is that a philosopher. while
walking along stream one day. observed a
frog that was trying TO get up Oh the bank. In
fortunately the frog very little and the
bank was high and steep. so that the
luckless batrachian seemed unable to accom-
plish its object. Leap after leap was tried
unavailingly, until it did appear proven i'm
possibility. But froggy was not discouraged,
and. persisting iii its efforts, at last gave one
surprising hop and landed triumphantiy OH the
bank. The philosopher was so impressed by
the incident that he went home and immed-
ately wrote poem. regarded to this day in
Japan as a classic, which begins
''If at first you don't succeed,
Try, try again"
The English poem to that effect, you see is
only plagiarism. On a third sword guard is
the figure OF magician, who has just shaken II
full-grown horse out of double gourd-a IA
yorite instrument of prestidigitation in Japan.
The design on a fourth sword guard represents
a wine carrier who became such sot that he
finally turned into beast. You behold MN

Barton hesitated. He hadn't had any
communication with the government for
some time, and liked to remind them in
the capital now and then of his exist

reluctance, "ef you're sarlin, why, here

away with palpitating heart, quite for
getting to purchase the supplies which
the cook had commissioned her to bring
home for dinner.
In the NEST secluded spot In the dark
pine wood she broke the seal and read

the photograph more closely, This is

Mabel said that she thought it was,
and blushed again as she said it.

friendship between Dudley and his new
acquaintance, and an awkward silence
ensued.
