The Preach Canadian.

The impression carried away by the
tourist that the French Canadian speaks
patois is not well founded. He en-
ploys words and phrases not recognized
by the academy, but that is not alto
gether his fault The first settlers had
to invent a Technology for their new
surroundings. They accepted the Indian
names for some Of the strange birds,
fishes and fruits. In other cases there
was nothing for it but to coin words,
for what did the French Of France know
Of sleighing, canoeing, snowshOeing,
portaging, clearing land, barn raising,
driving logs or making maple sugar!
In the lower parishes the habitant gets
married "at the herring" baptizes his
child lat the capelan," does something
else. "at the squid, the seasons when
the fish "run'i-i. e., strike the shore to
spawn-being as important in his reck-
oning as are the vondanges to the peas
ant of France. Some Of his phrases date
from his struggles with the Iroquois.
Thus he speaks Of going to the fort "
when he means the village, the first vii
lagos having been provided with stock
ados and 10 frighten a naughty child
be threatens to call in les sauvages. He
has preserved a number of words that
were good French in the seventeenth
century, but have since changed their
meaning or gone ont Of use in France.
He also employs sailor phrases in an
odd way, as when he "moors" his horse
to his sleigh and "disembarks" from
that vehicle with his "dunnage." TAX
ing it altogether, however, his French
is better than that Of the French peas
ant Of today. The worst that can be said
of il is that it is rather archaic by cont
parison. His pronunciation of st" and
I'd" is marked by nasal twang, due
possibly to the climatic agencies that are
supposed by some to be responsible for
the twang Of the down east Yankee.
The educated French Canadian speaks
as good French, Of course, as the edu-
Gated Partisan, but he uses fewer ges-
lures. Edward Farrer III Forum.

Some New stamps.

Stamp collectors will be interested to
know that Korea has issued new
stamp bearing curious combination
Of hieroglyphics which are interpreted
to be symbolical Of life and death, night
and day. General Pierola celebrated
his accession TO the presidency Of Peru
by issuing new stamp with valiant
looking, bearded warrior. Uruguay has
a new one that is similar, but little
more gay. Portugal celebrated the sew
enth centenary Of st. Anthony with a
new stamp bearing picture Of that
quaint monastic saint. France has re-
Gently issued new series for Madagas
car. Perak has a Lew one carrying ii
ger with very large, open mouth.
The Grand Duke Of Luxemburg has
published his portrait in the shape Of il
stamp. Prince Boris Of Bulgaria has
followed his example. Mauritius has "a
new series which, instead Of the per
trait of her majesty which oruamouted
the old enc. presents its own coat o..
arms, consisting Of a key, ship and
something that looks like q lighthouse.
The finest works Of art in the stamp
line are those issued last summer by
Greece to celebrate the Olympic games.
They are embellished with pictures Of
the Acropolis, the Mercury Of Praxiteles
and other interesting subjects. -Chica-

London and Food.

American cities, above those Of any
other nation, possess the advantage Of
being able to provide food promptly and
at short notice for great number Of
people in excess of their normal popula-
ton without enhanced cost to local con-
sumers. British and continental cities
confronted with such a contingency find
it difficult to meet. The anticipated in
hux of a great body Of strangers means
weeks of preparation; prices of edibles
are at once raised far above the average,
and not only visitors but residents also
are put TO considerable inconvenience to
procure a sufiiciency. Already in Lon
don much apprehension is felt in regard
to feeding the estimated 1900, 600
strangers who are expected to be present
at the celebration Of the queens jubi-
lee.
AS is well known. England is mainly
dependent for its edibles upon foreign
sources. London is proyisioned only
from day to day, and any interruption
Of transportation facilities from the con-
tinent for few hours would practically
exhaust its supply of many perishable
commodities. The Daily Telegraph is
already INDUCING in gloomy forebod-
ings on the subject Ii asserts that per-
ishable food such as milk, fruit, vege-
tables and fish, will be scarce and extor-
tionately dear. On the actual day Of the
procession it fears an actual fight for
edibles. Caterers are already contract
ing to supply luncheons and dinners for
the sightseers on June %.
From the terms demanded 1t Is con-
ceded that only millionaires will be able
to feed satisfactorily. Alarm is inspired
by the possibility that for several days
previous to the celebration the demand
upon the passenger service of the rail
ways will be so great as TO disorganize
the transportation Of food from rural
England and the continent. New York
can absorb an influx of strangers far
more numerous. in proportion to its size,
than London, and no one will have evil
dence that all comestibles are not as
plentiful and cheap as usual. New

Ian AIaclaren's Creed.

Some one curious in oriental lore has
discovered that Ian Maclareu's much
admired creed is really taken from an
Indian formula dating back 20 years at
least and probably as much further az
anybody cares TO 60. There Is no proof
that it is not il substance as old as the
Rig-Veda or the Institutes Of Manu-.
Whatever its origin or antiquity, it Is
a generous and liberal minded declara-
ton Of faith, and neither the pope nor
the grand lama Of Tibet ought to find
any fault with it, The Scotch Presby-
terry is against it and threatens 70 turn

does almost any denomination will be

whether it was entirely Of Drumtoch-

A Beautiful Legend.

There is beautiful old Scandinavian
legend which says that our bodies and
minds and souls renew their beauty and
freshness and power in the magic spring
time. The story is told Of some great
mythical hero who lived when the evil
spirit Of strife ruled the world. This
hero conquered many kingdoms and
made them his own, and one fierce and
bitter winter he entered into a mighty
contest with the only remaining coun-
try he had not yet overcome.
But the bitter north wind wrestled
with him and finally laid him low in
its icy embrace, and the hero slept long
and did not move nor come to life again
until the sweet and gentle spring, in
beautiful humility, came stealing softly
through the world and left her loveliest
blossoms and her deepest sunlight at the
fierce north winds feet Her winsome
beauty and her tender caresses won the
north winds icy heart, and with tears
in his eyes he hurried away and gave mp
his powerful reign to the gentle sway OF
spring, and when the great hero awoke
his wrath against the unconquered
country melted away and his brave
heart grew tender with love. The gen
tie beauty Of spring had changed him,
too, and the smile on his face was like
the radiant glory Of a fair April morn
ing, and the flush in the rosy east was
not more rich and beautiful than the
clear color that stole into his pale, cold
cheeks. The dew starred violets were
not more sparkling than his happy eyes,
as he flung his mighty arms above him
and cried out; 1.-THE world is beautiful
when bitter strife is gone. My enemies
shall be my friends and those | have
despoilod shall be comforted with four
fold reparation. "

Six years ago he could barely read.
Since then, according to the Chicago

LOGGING CRAZE IN ENGLAND.
Gone Daft Over the Raising Of Various
Subscriptions.

The approach of the end Of the CEN
tury in England finds the people gone
daft over the raising of subscriptions.
If there be one thing above all others
that characterizes the Britons of today,
it is their persistent fondness for Great
ing Funds" and they seize every pre-
text for arousing the interest Of the ma
ton in this project and that The fad,
for such it must be, is illustrated by the
present outcropping Of schemes for in
Vulnerable purposes, all seeking to draw
money from the purses of the charitable
and inspired by the approaching cele-
bration of the completion of the sixtieth
year Of Queen Victoria's reign. This
fashion of appealing to the public for
money because of some national cere-
mony has not taken root in this country,
and the citizens of America may be de-
voutly thankful, if the present expert
ence of the English nation is to be taken
as an index of the logical development
of the craze. Subscription papers, it is
said, fiutter in every corner of the United
Kingdom.
All classes are appealed to for pounds,
shillings and pence. Shillings lists are
popular. 1t is related that certain
great project was put forth on the basis
of national shilling subscription. 1t
was planned to acknowledge each con-
tribution in the columns of three Lon
don dailies. 1t soon appeared that it
was costing / y shillings to acknowl-
edge each shilling, and then the plans
were changed. Here are some of the
projects for which these various funds"
are being raised, all in the name of the
queens jubilee: To raise the debts Of
the London hospitals; to create public
libraries by the score; for the benefit of
the hospital nurses; for the sustentation
of the clergy; for the spread of temper
ance; for the creation of new parks; for
the purchase of lifeboats; for the benefit
of home for incurables; for the cree
ton Of "Victoria cottage homes, pre-
srmably for the benefit of certain ele-
GAM paupers; for the relief Of the spin
sters of the nation, for the relief of dis
tressed Irish ladies; for the prevention
Of cruelty to children; for the benefit,
in some unstated manner, of lady may
dresses; for the erection Of IA home for
the dying, and the climax is capped by
a fund for the creation of lethal cham

Facts Most Appalling.

Public baths, if one may judge from
a report recently published in England,
are not always, as one would naturally
suppose, conducive to public health.
Professor Raginsky, who has issued the
report, has been investigating the con-
dition Of the water in several public
baths, and the result is something ap-
palling. Before any one entered the wa
ter it was, he said, so full Of microbes
that it hardly seemed possible that one
more could find room. But II hours
later, after about 200 Of all sorts and
conditions Of bathers had been in, it
contained no less than 80, 600 germs to
the cubic centimeter, and the germs
were Of a distinctly unpleasant charac-

How Fast wild Geese Fly.

During the three days ending March
% numerous focks Of geese were seen
migrating northward, or, rather, north
eastward. since they were following the
general trend Of the coast line, which,
in New England, is nearly northeast
ward north Of Cape Cod. On the morn
ing Of March %. while A. f. Sweetland
and Iwere measuring clouds at the ends
of base line /, 1854 meters in length,
extending from the Blue Hill Meteoro-
logical observatory to the base of Blue
hill, we succeeded in measuring, with
our cloud theodolites, the height and the
velocity of flight of one Of these fiocks
of geese. So rapid is the velocity of
fight that the flock was visible to the
observers only about two minutes, but
during that time two sets of measure
ments were taken with the theodolites
on the leader of the flock.
The first measurements, at 40 a. M,
were accurately taken at the observa-
tory station, but were only approximate
at the other station. The second meas
urements, at 500 a. M, were accurate
and simultaneous at both stations. Us
ing the second set Of observations at
both stations for the height and the two
sets of observations at the observatory
station for the velocity, the calculations
gave the height as 800 feet above the
Neponset river valley, of 900 feet above
sea level and the velocity of fight US
44.3 miles an hour. The direction of
fight was from southwest to northeast.

A Way Out For All.
Tn the way Of practical relief for all

voice that is worth listening to ON this
subject is the voice Of Christianity.
which is the voice of Almighty God.

fallen timbers she was heard singing,
Il am going home to die no more.

An ancient warrior saw an overpow-
ering host come down upon his small
company of armed men, and mounting
his horse he threw a handful Of sand in
the air, crying, LET their faces be COW

heard his voice, and history says it
seemed as though the dust thrown in
the air had become so many angels OF
supernatural deliverance, and the
weak overcame the mighty, and the
immense host fell back, and the small
number marched ON. Have faith in
God, and, though all the allied forces Of

you in battle array and their laugh Of
