Tho Baronet and the peggar.

In the East Riding of Yorkshire the
name of Sir Tatton Sykes Is household
word A good story is told of the present
baronet's father, who died at the age OF
93, which exemplifes his characteristic
Yorkshire cuteness. Sitting one day on
a fence near Sledmere, Sir Tatton was ac-
costed by tramp, who mistook him for
farmer, as well he might, the old gentle
man affecting the dress of the yeoman.
"Nay, my lad, he replied, Il can gle ye
nought. But dost see yon houseY Sir
Tatton Sykes lives there, and he'll gle We
summat." The man trudged off up the
road, and the baronet slipped back to the
hall by path and gave the butler instruc-
tions to let tho tramp have gooo meal
and handed him q sovereign to give to his
strange guest. Half an hour later the
tramp, returning again, saw the old farm
or still seated on the fence. well, my
lad, A" said the latter, show did ye get onf''
ooh, thank you; got splendid dinner,
and the ale was the best ever tasted.
"Did We get nought elsep" was the remark
of the astonished farmer. Here, come
along back with me-" Letting himself
and his companion in by eide entrance
Sir Tatton rang for the butler, who turned
ashy at the unexpected sight which mel
his gaze. Looking sternly at him Tor
minute or two, Sir Tatton said; There I
no occasion for me to make your mouth
call your face liar. You've been will
me a long time, SO I'll let you of light
| Give this man 92 and send ESQ to the Yori
| hospital, or pack your traps up and go.

The Basis of Credit.

A mans past record, with but few
executions, should determine the ques-
ton of his eligibility for credit in the
future. If he has been slow pay in the
past, he will probably be slow pay in
his next purchases Ii he has been
prompt and satisfactory, he will likely
be the same again. AS an instance
might mention case which recently
came under my notice. A trader who
had gradually got to be slow and unsat-
isfactory was compelled to assign. His
failure was not due to any misfortune,
such as fire or flood, but seemed the
natural consequence of his Incompetence
and lack of management A wholesale
house which had been supplying him
lost heavily, but compromised, and as
he continued they still sold him, but on
80 days time. For awhile he promptly
attended to his payments, but after q
time he got slower and slower, and as
he was liberal buyer and his purchases
were allowed to accumulate he soon
owed bill far larger than his means
would warrant. AS this dragged along
for some years compromise was grant
ed upon this indebtedness also. Still he
chung to his old creditor and again or
dered goods, promising to send the
money within 80 days. But his past
record was too much even for so lenient
creditor. He was told plainly that he
would get no more goods on credit and
that If he ordered anything cash must
accompany the order in every case
Now, o man of this stamp is positive
detriment to man who pays his bills.
| After thus being refused credit by the
old house he will try and get it else
where and no doubt will succeed. But
II his record is known it should be
final answer to the question Of granting
him credit. -Hardware

EARLY FRENCH EXPLORERS.
TIE work OF Cartier, ChamplAin and 9th
ers In the Great Lakes.

TIE Work Of Cartier. Champaign and 9th
ers In the Great Lakes.
w. s. HARDWOOD writes in st. Nicho-
las OF 1.-The Great Lakes Mr.. Har-
wood says:
Jacques Cartier, who shipped from
st. Malo in 1884, explored the coast of
Newfoundland and made the circuit of
the gulf of st. Lawrence, and he did
much else, too, for New France in OPEN
ing up negotiations with the many tribes
OF Indians who thronged thousands
strong and friendly from all the regions
in and about Quebec and Montreal and
Ottawa and Kingston. Another mariner
OF st. Malo-Franois Greve-began the
colonization of the land. About 1870,
in France, Samuel de Champlain was
born, and when he reached the age of
early manhood he, too, joined in the
new world exploration in the region
above the great lakes. The kings of
France were much interested in the
new land and did all in their power not
only to explore the region, but to colo
nize and develop it. Champlain. in
1915, made an expedition up the Ottawa
river and penetrated as far as into
Georgian bay, thus touching on the wa
ters of Lake Huron.
In 1918 Etienne Brule, an old inter
prefer, came into Champlain's camp
with the news of the discovery Of Lake
Superior. Lake Erie, with Ontario, was
probably discovered some time earlier
than this. Nicollet, in 1884, started in
canoe from the head of Georgian bay,
skirted the eastern and northern shores
of Huron and at last found himself al
Sault Ste. Marie, or the falls OF St.
Mary, now shortened to "Soo"-ths
first white man, it Is believed, to reacf
this key to the noble lake beyond. HI
went as far as Green bay, ON Lake Mich
igan, and so the various lakes at las
came into the actual knowledge OF thu
explorers and were no longer myths.
But as these French explorers con
tinued to develop new and hitherto un
dreamed Of possibilities Of empire tn
English began to take deep interest II
the region--an interest little less marke'
than that they were then taking Il
their schemes of colonization in Viz
ginia and Massachusetts. Again an
again through the years that follow tn
threads cross and recross, not weavin
beautiful garment Of harmony, bu
tangling in wretched snarl, patcf

ment, wars harassed the land, until
last the English were masters OF tn
northern lake region for all time-ui

BURIED BY SAND.
How Dunes Are Formed and Buildings
Are Covered by Wind and Wave.

How Dunes Are Formed and Buildings
Are Covered by Wind and Wave.
Along the shores of oceans and other
large bodies of water, especially in the re-
giou of the estuaries Of large rivers, there
are usually immense masses of shifting
sand. 1t Is not within the scope OF this
article to describe the formation of these
sand banks. 1t Is sufficient to say, there
fore, that they usually begin as long sand
bars, behind which there are sheets OF still
water. These shallow bays In the course
of time fill up with mud, becoming salt
marshes intersected by thoroughfares,
salt ponds and winding creeks. In the
meantime the long, fiat sand bars have de-
veloped into sea islands or beaches. When
the tide falls, the sand Of the shore, ground
into powder by the waves and dried by
the sun and wind, is blown in the direc-
tion of the prevailing winds, usually in
land The sand moves like snow until 1t
meets an obstruction, when dune or
sand hill forms, equal In height to the OBJ
struction. A section through dune shows
beautiful qualification, the sand having
been deposited in thin layers always vary
| ing, however, with the nature of the sand,
| the velocity of the wind and the obstruc-
lions, large or small, which 1t encounters.
These dunes are not hurled bodily by the
breezes, but little by little, forming and
reforming, forward and backward, chang
ing, In fact, with every caprice of the
wind, gentle and almost impercoptible
during light sea breeze, but singing,
blinking sand blast in times Of gale In
spite, however, of all these minor changes,
the sand mass is generally moving, per-
haps only few inches year, in the direc-
tion of prevailing winds. A great deal de-
ponds upon the day Winds In that at
night the sand is damp and firmer. And
so mountains of sand are formed which
are often held temporarily by hardy plants
which have gained a precarious footing,
but which sooner or later, unless watched
and fixed, begin to shift, engulflng mead
ows, farm lands, lakes, bays, inlets-ir
fact, anything unable to check it's course.
There are several instances where light
houses have been increased in height be
cause of the sand which had engulfet
them. In one place on the New Jerse,
coast once stumbled upon the corner
an old rail fence which had been buriet
and exposed again on the ocean side. L
marked the site of an old field. On tn
North Carolina dunes, chimneys project
ing above the sand belong to tho house
of an old fishing village. In France AM
other parts of Europe villages have beel
buried. At Soulac, in Gascony, eros
? was discovered projecting above the sand
