It makes one homesick in this world
to think tha there are so many rare

many excellent people that scarcely

but regret that twenty or thirty years
Of life, maybe, have been spent with

he is once known, through him open

into a circle of culture and loving
hearts and enthusiasm in a dozen CON

bachelor doubles his world when he
marries, and enters into unknown fell

in popular language as "all his wife's

Keepipa Tracl, OF a yacuurp

There was once a chief engineer in
the British Navy, a patient man who
had spent so many nights by the bed
side of an expiring boiler which never
expired, but kept on bursting blood
vessels and getting a death rattle in
its thousand throats, that he had be-
come reconciled to knowing that he
would be called upon to stop leaks at
all hours of the day and night for the
rest of his natural life His only envy
was the man who could sleep undis-
turbed through the whole night. This
man was Bulstrode, chief engineer Of
another ship. l
One night the assistant engineer sent
a man up to Bulstrode to report the
gradual disappearance of the vacuum
in the air pumps. Knocking at the
door the man sang out:
please, sir, the vacuum is decreas-
ing"
The answer came back in a drowsy
voice:
"All right. Report to me if it gets
lower"
Half an hour later the man raped
again at the door.
THE vacuum is much lower, sir"
"Very good. Tell me if it gets still
lower"
After another half hour:
"Mr. Bulstrode, the vacuum's gone,
sir"

Foreign soverelgns in British Army.


King Edward has followed precedent
in giving rank in our army to foreign
sovereigns. Few persons, however,
have noticed the appropriateness Of
His Majesty's selection of the Oxford
shire Light Infantry as the regiment
which he bestows on his kinsman, the
King of Portugal. The old Forty
third and Fifty-second regiments,
which form that famous corps, were
among the first which landed in the
Peninsula, near Lisbon, in 1903, and
they served throughout the war, un'
der Crawford, until they emerged into
France in the early days Of 1914.
There is, therefore, singular fitness
in giving His Majesty the honorary
command of a regiment which bears
on its colors the name of almost every
action in the Peninsular War. and
which did so much to maintain the
kingdom Of Portugal -London Chroni.
