n Bright Christmas.

Christmas! What a food of memories
the word revives! To tell of the happi-
est Christmas l ever experienced is al
most an impossibility-there We're so
many happy n e when my father was
alive to teach me how to enjoy them.
The first Christmas that I remember
seems now like a scene from a long for
gotten comedy. was a very little boy
then, but the day is impressed upon my
memory by a mishap never to be forgot
ten. Who has not some time been given
a drum by his dearest friend and closest
confidant-his father? The drum that I
received then was almost as large as I,
and the very first use to which l put it
was that of stepladder.
My ambition at that moment was to
reach the lofty altitude of an armchair.
The drumhead, however, refused to sus-
tain me and 1 fell through with a bang.
How long l might have remained there
it is impossible to say, for I never could
have extricated myself alone. The hearty
laugh in which my father INDUCED when
he rescued me from my ~predicament is
still a bright spot in my recollection

Finds at Sea.

In respect to derelict or abandoned
property at sea the ancient rule gave
one-half to the salvor, but now the usual
course is to allow the award to be gov
erned by the same principles as in other
salvage cases, taking into consideration
the risk and labor employed in the serv-
ice. Often a ship fortunate enough to
save an imperiled or helpless vessel will
make more money for her owners than
she would on two or three voyages
