A LIFE SAVER.
What it Means to be a Surfman-Hard- AilIp and Injury His Chief Reward.

ship and Injury Hts Chief Reward.
 From u,e WoonSocket (R. T. Reporter.
 One midwinter night, in binding snow storm, Captain Arthur l.. Nickerson, in command of the gallant little schooner Allen Green, ran out from Vineyard Sound before the northeast gale and made for the open sea. The storm was at it's height when the wind shifted so suddenly that before the skipper realized his situation his ears caught the sound of the breakers booming on Point Judth's treaeherous shore.
 Fifteen minutes after the Allen Green struck, Captain Herbert M. Knowles crew of hardy life savers had begun the work of rescue. Captain Nickerson, when brought ashore, was in pitiable condition. As he later stated in his official report of the disaster (see Government Reportl made to Superin- tendent Kimball of the Life Saving Service, q suffered much from cramps and pains caused by the bruises 1 received before l went ashore, having been at the wheel fifteen hours cOntinu0usiY"
 The life savers wrapped the brave young sailor in warm blankets and gave him Pain- Killer freely The famous old remedy ac. complished an immediate relief, and Captain Nickerson slept as peacefully as child that night and awoke next mo rning in condition to face another tempest, if necessary. He feels that the prompt use of Pain-kil Ter after his fearful experience rescued him from un- utterable suffering and even saved his life.
 Brave Captain Know les is now assistant superintendent of the life saving district He says the life savers all use Pain-Killer, and consider it the best and most reliable "all-around" remedy they can have by them
 Captains Asa Church, of Point Judith sta tion; Albert Church, of Narragansett Pier; Davis at Watch Hill; Saunders at Quono- chontaug-and their gallant crews, endorse Captain Knowles in his unstinted praise of Pain-Ki as an invaluable remedy for emergencies encountered in daily life.

wolseley's Opinion of the Chinese.

It was Lord Wolseley who regarded the Chinese as the greatest race in the world. His opinion was formed about 1860, when he was in China, and he never renounced it. He said to a representative of The Strand Magazine: ''The Chinese people possess all the clements of being great people. They have courage, physical power and absolute contempt for death. Today in that country soldering is looked down upon. Only tho failures in life enter the army. Let Bismarck or Napoleon rise up among them, and in two generations they would be the greatest nation and conquering power in the world. They only need a leader. Give them progress, and they will conquer. Three hundred years ago they were the head of the world, but their growth was stunted. China wants a modern man with modern ambitious. Let their leader come, and they must re- vive again. Brooklyn Eagle.
