HERRING BOATS.

Their Peculiar Rig - One of Them Sails
From Cornwall to Australia.
The fleets of herring fishing boats sail
ing out of the ports of Great Britain
are grand seagoing craft, strong and
swift, and able to stand the stormiest
weather. They are usually rugged with
two Sunny masts and carry enormous
square lugsails, which have to be low
cred and raised every time the boats
"come about" In Scotland and the
English and Irish ports they are called
luggers, but in the isle of Man have
the local name of "nickies -
In many cases the crews own the
boats. each man having a share, but in
any case the fishermen have an interest
in the amount of fish sold and are paid
according to results 1t is a glorious
sight to see these boats racing home aft
er good haul, the first boat in having
the best market for the fish.
1t is not uncommon at Tarbot, the
headquarters of the Loeb Prone boats;
Peel, in the isle of Man; Penzanoe, in
Cornwall, and at some Irish ports to
see the fish taken away by carloads to
be used by the farmers for manure at
times when an unusually big catch has
oversupplied the market.
In many places during the summer
there are races organized by the towns
people and visitors for these luggers,
and the interest in the events is far
more keen than in the finest yacht
races. Only recently Penzance lugger
was sailed by her crew to Australia,
and made the passage in wonderfully
quick time. The large boats are manned
by from 90 to 80 men, the weight of
the lugsails making big crew neces-
sity. In most cases the sails are stained
a reddish brown, and Distinguishing let
tiers and numbers on the sail tell to
what port the craft belongs - New

Promoting Marriages In France.

Another curious remedy for the pauc-
ity of births in France is suggested by
the amiabIe scientific Senators Guyot,
Liable and Berthelot, who have intro
duced bill providing that all married
conscripts will only have to serve a
year in the ranks.
The promoters of the measure express
the opinion that the reason the men do
not marry is because military service
comes just at the time when youths nat
urally contemplate marriage, but they
hope by the offer of deducting two years
from their military service to entice
large mum bers into matrimony.
In order to obviate the probability Of
scheming consoripts marrying in order
to escape being drafted into the army
and then divoroing their wives at the
end of years service the bill provides
that conscripts SO acting will have to
return to the army and complete their
three years. service. New York Times.

WHAT SHE NEGLECTED.

He Caught Her.

He Was a Student of Human Nature, and
He Caught Her.
Albert Bloodgood gazed long and
earnestly into his young wife's eyes. 1t
was evident that serious doubts had
taken possession of him. He had been
married to Sylvia Bloodgood for three
days and had thought that he was hap
by, but now, as she sat beside him in
the saloon of the plunging steamer, a
horrible thought suddenly forced itself
upon him.
The sweet girl who had given her life
into his keeping noticed that something
was ont of whack with him, and, look
ing up, more as an innocent child would
look at parent than as wife oontem-
plating the features of her husband, she
asked:
Doesn't 'oom love 'oor little darlie
any more? Tell me, darling, what it is
that troubles you. Don't try to conceal
it from 'oor little lovey dovey. You
know Pm so wise I can see everything.
You told me so yesterday, when guessed
what you had in that pretty jewel box
for me. "
He sighed and said:
"Ah, sweetness, l don It know whether

or not. Perhaps am borrowing trouble.
But I have, as you know, always been
of studious disposition. I have studied

"Well, either my observations and
deductions have been wrong or you
don't love me as wife should love her

"Oh, Albert" the sweet girl cried,
fiinging her arms around his neck and
sobbing pitifully, what has caused you
to form this cruel, cruel opinion? What
has 'oor little daplie done to arouse
such suspicion?"
1t isn't what you have done. he re-
piled, "but what you have not done,
that worries me-"

waited for him to proceed.

Making Soups From Fruit.

Fruit soups are made from sweetened
and thickened fruit juices and can be
made from currants, oranges, cranber-
ries and mixture of ourrants and rasp-
berries. Press sufficient fruit to make
one pint of juice Moisten a tablespoon
full of arrowroot in a little cold water,
add to it gradually a pint of boiling
water and add sugar according to the ma
ture of the fruit used Let this puree
stand a moment, then take from the
fire and add the fruit juice At serving
time fill punch bowl half full of crack
ed ice, pour in the fruit soup, and it is
ready to serve. These fruit soups are
usually served at the beginning of a
company luncheon. Mrs. S. T. Rorer

Facts Ahont Capitalization.

Several weeks ago Professor Won
Hoist, the well known historian, ON his
return from Europe to Chicago univer-
sity gave an account of the great dis
coyery by Professor Won Schroen that
crystals were organic substances and
said he wanted to raise $500, 600 to
help the professor in his Investigations.
Since then letter has been received at
San Francisco from a gentleman who
interviewed Professor Won Schroen in
Naples which throws a different light
on the subject. 1t seems the professor
is studying a process of capitalization
and has taken 1850 photographs to
show the transfer of organic into inor-
ganic matter. Some photographs showed
the successive phases Of crystallizations
from albuminous substances to stone.
His Investigations will be of great i'm
portance, not only to bacteriology, but
to physics, chemistry and mineralogy.

Two New England Churches.

There are Catholic communities, both
in America and in the old world, says
Alvan F. Sanborn in The Atlantic,
where an extreme wretchedness in the
dwellings is at once partially explained
by the richness and beauty of the
churches. But not so in Dickerman. On
the contrary, both the Dickerman
churches are of piece with their sur
roundings. The Congregational church,
more than a century old (Orthodox is
the name it still goes by, was a worthy
structure in its day and would be so yet
had it been kept in good repair. Alas,
it is only the ghost of its former preten-
tious self. Its stills are badly rotted. Its
spire and belfry have been shattered by
lightning and imperfectly restored. It's
roof is leaky, the clapboards of it's walls
are warped and blistered, and its heavy
bell, once sweet Of tone, is cracked and
dissonant. The Baptist church, built
only few years ago, mainly at the ex-
pense Of a church building society, is
one of the shoddily constructed many
gabled atrocities due to the malign in
huence of the SO called Queen Anne
restoration. It's original coat of paint
of many colors has mostly soaked into
the surrounding soil. Its panes of stain
ed glass, as they have been broken from
time to time, have been replaced by or
binary window glass, with piebald un-
canny results.

x RAYS IN MINING.

Ihe1r Use Reveals the Presence of Gold In
Quartz.
To apply the x rays to mining is a
novel idea which has just been devel-
oped by DR.. f. E. Yoakum of Los An
geles. He has fixed the X ray upon a
piece of quartz whose exterior showed
no indication Of gold and has imprinted
upon Photographic plate the shadow
of PARTICLES of the precious metal within.
Recently the physician was photo
graphing a tumor. There was vacant
space Oh the plate, and just Tor luck he
placed there bit of gold bearing quartz.
When the plate was developed there
stood forth upon it the outlines of rock,
with specks here and there showing the
presence of gold. Since then he has ia
ken number of pictures of valuable
ore The x rays pass through the quartz
easily, but the gold stays their progress,
so the ray photograph shows the pres
ence of gold distinctly.
1t is not necessary to take a photo
graph. 1t is possible to hold ore in ones
hand and by looking through the screen
toward the rock the shadow of the gold
is visible. Dr. Yoakum believes this
discovery will be of service to biologists
and mineralogists in studying rocks
He thinks perhaps it will be possible to
use x rays in mining ore.-New York

Making 1t Easy.

Old John S. was rural postman
in a west country district and in a
rather rough fashion was also an anna
teur dentist. On his rounds one day he
met certain farmer about to start for
a six mile ride to town for the purpose
of getting an aching tooth drawn. On
seeing old John, however, the farmer,
distracted with pain, determined to test
the old mans skill as tooth puller. A
pair of somewhat rusty pliers was pro-
duced, and after a few tugs the tooth
was held up for the farmer to see, who
exclaimed:

A Minister startIes His Hearers by This
Statement,
When the Rev. Thomas Needham, an
evangelist, said, "There are no female
angels, y while preaching on recent
Sunday in the Livingston Avenue Bap-
fist church, New Brunswick, N. j.,
there was an audible litter among the
women of the congregation. There was
an expression of incredulity on the faces
Of many of the congregation, but the
preacher went on to say that nowhere
in the Bible was there mention of fe-
male angels and explained that the re-
deemed souls were higher order of be-
ings than angels.
Mr.. Needham then declared that no
minister ought to be allowed to take
charge of church until he was married.
ga man after being graduated should
go out in the mission field and acquire
his experience and then marry and take
charge, said Mr.. Needham. ga min
lister who is not married will be embar-
raised in his pastoral relations and can
not deal with many questions that con-
front him. The young women of a con-
sregation who prefer a young man be-
cause of the possibilities of capturing
the prize do not relish sentiments like
this, but the old, conservative church
members think it is sound doctrine. -

yers can secure for their clients longer
leases of worthless lives, then we no
longer wonder at the desperate means
community takes to rid itself of some
of its greatest human blots. There is
one worse crime than murder. Some
states impose death penalty for it,
and In those states one rarely hears of
lynching for that crime. 1t is gener-
ally in the states which have not
made this crime capital offense that
lynchings occur. Very often the
main reason for Kidding the commu-
nifty in this summary manner is the
desire to do away with the tremen-
dOus expense which sensational trials
always are to a county. In one of the
recent lynchings the fact was brought
out that the criminal was costing the
county $50 per day. We need revo-
luton of some sort in our criminal
laws. If we can afford to hang q man
on circumstantial evidence, we ought
not to hesitate to hang him speedily
after fair trial and overwhelming
proof of his guilt.

look at it from the same mind, it
would seem that these so called labor
organizations are responsible in a
very large degree for the unsettled
state of affairs. If we. have ever looked
at any imYN grafton statistics, we must
have been impressed at the number of
immigrants from all countries who are
classed under the head of "laborers.'
