the remarkable diving feat of Ha-

The working crews of the islands
were quartered in suitable camps near
their field of labor. They were native

Der one who excelled in diving. On a
certain occasion, when the placing of
a deep-water mooring had just been
accomplished, it became necessary
to detach under water the end of a
ilawser, which had been made fast to
the submerged part of spar buoy,
about 40 or so feet below the surface
of the sea. The man was told to take
his sheath-knife down with him and
cut the hawser as near its end as he
could. so as to lose as little as possi-

Sir Frederick Treves has spoken
wisely and truly of the romance of
medicine, viewing the subject from the
standpoint of the physicians own life
and discoveries. 1t has always seemed
to us surprising that this fact has not
been more emphasized, but that which
is of the supremest Importance to men
and women is. by an old law of pro-
gress. precisely the last to which at
tention is directed. More wonderful,
however, than this aspect of the ply
sieian's life is the fact of the tragedies,
comedies and romances of which ne
becomes the spectator. No r~e is al
lowed to see SO deeply a-d frankly INTO
the hearts of peopIe, into the very heart
of the world as he. BY the nature of
his callips there can be no secrets kept
froIr him, even if desired, and the
strange longing of the human heart for
a confessor becomes an aid in the rev.
elation which even to the priest can
never be quite so complete. In these
days when novelists spend half their
lives in seeking "local color and a
knowledge of the realities and condi-
tions of the lives of their fellows, it is
remarkable that they have so little
sought the sad, the bright, the true
truth of life, which presents itself ev-
cry day to the kind and conscientious
doctor. There is more romantic and
tragic material here going to waste-so
far as relates to chronicling-than all
the literature makers are finding else
where. This concerning the Dichtung.
and when it comes to Wahrheit, no
historian or psychologist has yet
dreamed of the extent to which, con-
sciously or unconsciously,- directly or
indirectly. sickness dictates and DOM
mates the actual lives of nearly every
one of us.-Philadelphia Medical Jour-

Worms as Soil Renovators.

Earth worms are not soil formers.
for they are seldom met with in soils
that are destitute of organic matter.
They are simply renovators. Every
time a worm is driven by dry weather,
or any other cause, to descend deep, ii
brings to the surface, when it empties
the contents of its body, a few particles
of fresh earth. At the same time it
fertilizes the subsoil by opening UP
passages which encourage the roots of
plants to penetrate deeper, these pas
sages being lined with excreted mat
ter, which provides a store of nourish-
ment for the roots. On meadow land
Darwin found these worm casts
amount annually to eighteen tons an
acre, and on good arabic land to about
ten tons.-American Fertilizer.

PEARLS or THOUGHT.


Better the feet slip than the tongue.
There are more men threatened
than stricken.
Friends unjustly gotten are seldom
comfortably enjoyed
The best little difference is betwixt
good deferred and evil done.
A good many people would be more
charitable if charity was more fash
ionable.
To measure a mans worth by his
success is a square often false, al
ways uncertain.
The spoke in the wheel which creak-
eth most doth not bear the greatest
burden in the cart
Some have sluices IN the conscien-
ces, and can keep them open or shut,
as occasion requireth.
Every fool knows what is worst to
be done, but what is best to be done
is known only to the wise.
Determining to win that which was
lost instead of pondering the past,
las kept many men out of asylums for
the insane.
There is something divine in march
ing straight to death for the sake of
people of the future whom we have
never seen.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

+ Like the bee, we should make our in
dustry our amusement.-Goldsm
If you will not hear reason, she will
surely rap your knuckles.-Poor Rich
ard.
Politeness induces morality. Sere-
nifty of manner requires serenity of
mind.-Julia Ward Howe.
After so many have coldly repeated
that vice leads to misery, is there no
generous man who will proclaim aloud
that misery leads to vice?-Landor.
The human race is divided into two
classes-those who go ahead and do
something, and those who sit and in
quire, why wasn't it done the other
way 20. w. Holmes.
Taken in its widest sense, culture
means preparation for complete living.
Acquisition of fitness for carrying on
the business of life is primarily a duty
to self, and secondarily, duty to 9TH
ers.-Herbert Spencer.
The aim for which we give our best
strength is everything, the visible sue
cess is nothing. True faith may be the
greatest, goodness and fidelity at the
highest. when visible success is at the
least--John Hamilton Thorn.
Men, though never so thickly clad in
dignities, sit not inaccessible to the in
fiuence of their time; especially men
whose life is business; who at all turns,
were it even from behind judgment
seats, have come in contact with the
actual workings Of the world. Carlyle.

But we don't know where the shop is.

The Law Business.

Overcrowding is the motto of the
day. The factories are oyercrowded.
The theatres are overcrowded. The
only reason why one does not say that
the street cars are overcrowded, is that
they are something worse. All such
overcrowdings. however, are sparse
ness and loneliness compared with
the overcrowding of the bar. In 1891
there were fifty eight law schools with
6073 students. Now, according to an
estimate made by Professor Huffcutt.
of Cornell, there are 120 schools with
1900 students. Meanwhile the num-
Der of full fiedged lawyers in the
United States is said by the last census
to be about 114.000. No ether profess
sion, with the exception of teaching
and of medicine, Is SO popuious.-C Chi
cago Tribune.

Growing Blueberries From Seed.

The Maine Agricultural Experiment
Station reports that they have found 1t
comparatively easy to grow blueber-
ries from seed They used good pot
ting soil, to which leaf mould had been
added. washed the seed from the pulp,
and allowed it to freeze during the
winter, then sowed it in the spring
thickly on the surface of the soil,
packed it down with board and COW
cred with a slight sprinkling of soil.
They were handled once, and later in
the summer Were transferred to cold
frame, where they were covered with
litter during the winter. The next
spring they We're transplanted into
beds, shaded until established and
made a good growth during the sum-
mer. They say the low blueberry,
"vaccineum Pennsylvanicum," will
fruit in three or four years. while the
high bush, s'Vaccineum corynbosum,' =
requires from four to six years. We
think the shortest period they name for
either is at least a year too long. but
will not dispute the matter. Both
these varieties are relatively easy to
transplant either from swamps or up
land, and they may be propagated by
grating or division of the roots. AS
we called attention to the possible cul-
tivation of these berries several years
ago we feel an interest in this matter,
and hope to see them grown as COM
monty as strawberries and blackberries
are now.-The Cultivator.

Emergency Luncheons.

A luncheon was hastily evolved In
a suburban home the other day out of
what seemed an empty larder. A few
cold boiled potatoes. with pail of
eggs. was all that the hostess found
wneh sne ran to the kitchen and the
ice box to see what there was for
luncheon on the arrival of some un-
expected company, whereupon a dish
of scalloped eggs and potatoes was
suggested. Six eggs were boiled hard,
chilled quickly in ice water and sliced,
some cream sauce prepared and the
potatoes sliced. These three were ar
ranged in alternate layers in shallow
crumbs added and baked in a moderate
oven about ten minutes. Brown bread
was sliced thin, buttered and made into
roll sandwiches; cocoa. with whipped
cream. served as drink, and dish of
olives and radishes added as relish.
Fortunately, the dinner strawberries
were in the house, and, with some
timed sweet biscuit. served for a
desert.
An excellent luncheon dish unused
by, if not unknown to, most families,
is simply prepared by making desic-
Gated Goldfish into croquettes. instead
of the ordinary fishcakes, and cooking
them in wire basket in deep fat.
Serve with garnish of sliced lemon
and parsley, and offer with bowl of
tartare sauce. This will be found so
novel and delightful as to put it on the
list of things for high days and festi-
walls.
One luncheon dish leads on to an
other, for suggestions are always in
order for the meal which is Of the three
most difficult to plan. This is eggs a
la Caracas. One-half of pound Of
shaved dried beef is mixed with cup
of tomatoes, two tablesp0onfuls of
grated cheese and one of butter. little
onion juice, salt and pepper; last of
all. four eggs are well beaten together
and stirred in, and the whole is turned
into the frying pan and quickly cooked
until the eggs are set like an omelette.

The MIND OF THE CHILD.


Be Happy IL You Have BOfster0us N
fant-The New Scholastic Ideal.
In the next annual report of the Com
missioner of Education will appear
paper entitled "Inhibition: A Study of
Child Character which will deal with
the ideas that dwell in the brain of a
very young child and are developed
into thought The data concerning the
development of the child mind were
gathered from recorded observations of
hundreds of children, while they were
at work or play Deductions are made,
from the facts presented, that over-ex-
ertion, particularly of a mental nature,
is injurious TO the child; that the
young mind in the course of growth
may be permanently injured by over
study; that when a child is growing
rapidly he is disinclined to exercise.
and on Hle other hand, that too much
exercise viii check growth.
The report says that restlessness in
children up to six or seven years of age
is a good sign. but a bad sign after
that age. The report says: "The rest
less child should naturally develop into
a man of action. Mothers who have
restless children can get comfort out of
the fact that this condition shows a

A quiet child. the report says, is not
necessarily one that will develop into
bright man or woman. Such condi-
tion in a child is often the result of

always wore. and he knew that the
grace which made her home-spun gown
seem picturesque and appropriate was
none of the dressmaker's art. The
choking sand swept down from the red

When they were opposite the window
they could see a woman seated at the

Eulalie saw the lily whiteness of her
face. the great blue eyes, the yellow
hair. the soft. light hand that rested an

must have dreamed the smile, it was so
beautiful, and the voice. bell-llke and

and beaming like the morning, said:

Eulalie had not turned her eyes to
him before Swinton was down, flushed,
eager and trembling He held out the
end of his bride to Eulalie and she
took it mechanically, her lips apart,
wondering as she always wondered.
The angelic face had vanished from
the window and Maurice had gone into
the car. but Eulalie sat there in the
furnace breath of the sun and held his
pony. She did not hear the locomotive
bell nor the voice from the platform
