GIVING A MAN A CHANCE.
1t somstimes Proves to He the Making
of Him.

of Him.
A commanding officer who has stud
led human nature. he states, will oc-
casionally make a brilliant hit when
he gives a man what is called a
chance" says the Culver. The fol-
lowing illustrative case was told to
me by the colonel who tried the ex-
pertinent. One day, when out for
walk, he met a man of his regiment
who was only too well known to him
on account of his frequent appearance
in the orderly room. My friend stop
six feet three in height and yet you
don't think you are making a precious
ass of yourself with thirty-six
'drunks' in your defaulter's sheet?
Suppose, now, that l were to put a
lance corporal's stripe on your arm to-
morrow how would it be??" The
man was so surprised and delighted
that he took the total abstinence
pledge and never drank any more in
toxicatng liquor. Four years after
ward he married, and the colonel at
tended the marriage feast. The BRIDE
groom took his commanding officer
aside, and said to him as he pointed to
the different kinds of liquor that were
on the table: You see all that, sir?
Well, | have not tasted a drop even
today, and won't, for if l did l must
get drunk"

Bush fires annually devastate thous-
ands of acres of crops in Australian
colonies. Many homesteads are de-
stroyed and lives lost at the same
time. The problem of combating
this destructive agent has been handed
over to the consideration of the royal
commission of forests. This body is
busily collecting data. The losses from
fires have been quite heavy this year.
Whole fiocks of sheep have persisted,
and many cattle and horses succumbed
to the flames,

Steam raising from town refuse is
a comparatively old topic, and the fuel
value, from this point of view, of all
that is implied by the words town re-
fuse has been discussed on many oc-
casions, and has been practically illus
trated as we'll in several instances. The
latest proposed refuse disposal scheme
is simply to convert the stuff into fuel
gas. This, later, is to be used in gas
engines for electric generator driving
for power and lighting, leading
eventually to an energy system beside
which all present and Immediately
prospective steam power plants would
appear hopelessly antiquated. With
the gas generated, of course, at one
large producer station and utilized
presumably right on the spot, and that
spot located on the water front of such
cities as have any the question of
power station coal would be satisfact-
orily disposed of at once, and that
of water as we'll, for the only water
that would be needed would be that
for cooling the gas engine cylinders,
and that could be pumped from the
river and discharged into it later. The
scheme would solve some municipal
by private corporations; but, for the
present, unfortunately, matter-o fact
figures to give a substantial, practical
base of operations are entirely lack
