Life Aboard an Arctic Boat,

The days and weeks pass without our
taking any account of them. We get
up at $50 In the morning. At we
feed the dogs. AT we have breakfast,
and at II we dine. Then we work till
$50, when we have supper, after
which we smoke and play cards or
chess till bedtime. 1t is not at all cold.
Rarely does the thermometer descend
below zero. Yesterday the sun shone
gloriously. The ice reflected it with
binding glare and in brilliant colors.
The ship has withstood all the as
saults of the ice. 1t is splendid to see
how it breaks up ice that is sometimes
three or four feet thick. At other
times, when 1t is even thicker, the ship
is rushed against 1t at full steam. The
shock splits and breaks it very often
for distance of 40 or so yards. The
Duke Of Abruzzi is always on the
bridge and loses no opportunity of get
ting ahead. Sometimes he does not
even come down to his meals. When
ever we get the smallest opening, he
orders us to go on, and we are glad of
1t, because the more we advance at the
present time the less we shall have to
do next year.-Leslie's Monthly.

Dom Paul Kruger's prophesy that the
South African war wsuld cost England
"a price that would stagger humanity"
has been fulfilled. The war costs
England $7,0OO,OO every week, and on
Monday, May 6. the London war Office
gave out the following statement: "The
total number of deaths in the Sonth
African war is ia officers and 14,264
men. Four officers and 3l4 men have
been invalided home and subsequently
died. Two thousand four hundred and
ninety three non-commissioned officers
and men have left the service unfit for
duty" The war has also caused the
death of Queen Victoria and many of
the nobility or aristocracy of England.
And still the war continues.

against the extension. Thousands OF
names could be got for petition for
the opening of the new road, Hart

The forthcoming quarterly report Of
the New York, New Haven & Hart

Every bit of this business could be
handled more cheaply and more oxpe-

A frequent trap in French for the IN
wary is the difference of meaning in
similar phrases. For example, "faire
feu' means to fire a gun, while "faire
du feu'' means to light fire; "tomber
par terre" conveys the idea of falling
to the ground from ones own height,
whereas ''tomber a terre" means to
fall from any height-in other words,
to tumble down and to tumble off. In
the same way ''traiter de fat means
to call man a fop and "traiter en-
rof' to treat him like a king. The
English word bore" may be expressed
in two ways-'un raseur" gives the
idea of an active bore and tune bassi-
noire" of a passive bore-Academy.

More, 10 fat volumes of them, for
something like S2.25. They became a

how to get rid of them. "As for selling
them, it is not so easy to sell 10 vol
umes of a stone dead author, particu-
larry II you live three miles from rail-
way station and do not keep trap"
Mr.. Birrell resorted to desperate ex-
pedient: II had to do something, and

volumes in the back garden. Out of
