Boats Made of Aluminium.

Some of the boat builders in New
England have discarded the use OF
aluminium in the building of shells. At
first the extreme lightnesS of this metal
made it favorite. but it has been found
that it will corrode, and the shell will
then be full of pin holes. On the other
hand, musical instrument makers are
using aluminium in the manufacture
of drums. Made of this material, they
are not only of light weight, but give
out a better tone than the ordinary
article.

II eXacts IA larger measure of preparation
than go to make the successful sermon,
the successful store or the successful con-
duct of a law case or a disease. Too often,
the equipment of the newspaper worker
is notably inferior to the equipment of the
preacher, the merchant. the lawyer or the
physician. The one point which l am de-
sirous of emphasizing lis that, whether
well or lll-fitted for his task, the man
who helps to make a newspaper puts his
labor into a thing that lives less than one
fourth of Il single day. Can we wonder
that sometimes in IL mood of discourage
ment which even the incesSant velocity of
the chase for news and novelties cannot
forever ward off, the writer for the press
for the moment loses faith in his vocation,
and let's slip, a chance to cast the best
thoughts within him before the stamped
ing throng?
The artist who paints a picture be It
good or bad, does something which car

or the doctor who treats a disease has
week or u month in which to prepare his
plea or concoct his curatives. But the
newspaper man, mayhap born of the same
kin as the artist, the author, the composer
or the preacher, has before him "a margin

There are journals which believe in leis-
ure and encourage wholesome thinking as
prerequisite TO writing. These jour
nails, when printed daily, perhaps live
longer than five hours per day. At a

the fact that five persons read the five

But, in this country. they are not The

standpoint of the investor, is not that
which uses the best brains under the best

But 1t is ever a poor consolation for the
men whose labor goes down in the daily
chaos.
There Is a brighter side to this gloomy
picture. To the conscientious newspaper
worker 1t fully balances the account.
While the conditions of the business keep
that business from overshOoting the heads
of the masses, under penalty of financial
loss, the very existence of the business
foretells public Improvement. Men who

The Napoleonic revival continues to
supply a large proportion of the con-
tents of our leading magazines. The

The Century for March contains in
addition to its Napoleonic literature and
miscellany, three notable studies of
great men--H. Il. Krehbiers paper on
the Belgian violinist, Eugene Ysaye;
Thomas Commerford Martins study of
Professor Won HelmholtZ and an install

The March Cosmopolitan leans some
what heavily toward European themes.
The post of honor is given to a profuse-
ly illustrated article descriptive of
Mont-Saint- Michel. Then FIR. Tn. Sis
son occupies number of pages with a
running narrative of biography and
gossip. about the famous models OF
Paris. Next to that, Ernest Daudet
under the title "A President of France"
adds to the now rapid apotheosis of the
assassinated executive, M. Sadi Carnot
An elaborate article ON the Observatory
of the Vatican, with another concern
ing "A Portrait In Bruges" carries the
European tendency to an unusual ex-
treme. These various transatlantic
subjects are good enough, in their way;
and the literary and pictorial charm
connected with their exploitation goes
far to reconcile one to the expatriation.
But are there no longer any topics of
interest in America?

while the gifted Conan is making hay
without waste of sunlight, he does not
deteriorate in consequence thereof. But
