Mr.. Charles Hawksley in his presidcn-

Civil Engineers reviewed the progress
of civil engineering in the nineteenth
century, reports London paper. In
1911 mail coaches took II hours for the
journey from London to Holyhead.
Even in 1887 the journey took 81 hours.
The first railway for passengers came
into service in 1928. During the cen
fury about $1,000, 100000 was invested
in building railways. In 1910 the total
number of lighthouses in the British
isles was 169; in 1900 the number was
LOO. The early lighthouses were
Lighted by oil lamps. The oil lamps Of

In 1919 the Savannah, propelled part

house-a rusty. bent, decrepit-lookiug
old man, With an old handsaw he
was. with painful effort, Wrestling
from the trunk OF a fallen piuiou the
wood with which TO cook his dinner.
The former senator is perforce his own
an.of-all-work. His appearance in
these small duties is even more pathet-
ic than that he presents when, every
evening as regularly as the neigh or-
ing whistle blows he appears upon
the streets in faded garb of ancient
cut, bending upon his cane, looking
neither up nor aside, recognizing no
one, doing his few errands, again to
return from his self-chosen isolation
Of the crowded streets to the greater
seclusion Of his home. He bears ever

mn RS. DUMLEIGH had gone out
lW shopping, and Dumleigh was read
ing the evening paper and waiting for
her return, when the postman came
with the late afternoon delivery. There
was one letter, addressed to Mrs. Dunn
leigh in a strange masculine hand.
Dumieigh weighed the letter in his
palm, turned it over two or three
times, scrutinized the address, and
battled with his conscience ovep the
questions HAS a man the right to
open his wife's mail?" At last he de-
cided that he had. Besides, he was
Just a little curious as to what might
be in the letter. For the next ten min
utes Dumleigh sat and stared at the
open letter, muttering to himself. 1t
read:
Dear Mrs. Dumleigh: Replying to your
welcome note of yesterday, | hasten TO
s2y that I shall be only too glad to see

office. The door will be open. l remain.

"Hah!" exclaimed Dumleish "And

FROM "THE PASSAGE"

Onward ever and outward ever, over the
uttermost verge of the earth,
With ever before US the perilous vista, be-
hind us the laughter and ligth of the
hearth.
With the wind of the wilderness fresh in
our faces, the rain in our hair like
> chaplet of light,
As the silent low light of the Dawn, like
a dewiall, is sifted and shed through
the raiment of night,
And the airs shall be smitten In sunder
Before us
With lightning and voices of thunder
In chorus.
We shall pass over desolate places, strange
forest and measureless plain,
And the moon shall relent and the spaces
of midnight be severed IN twain;
Over meadows that murmur with foun-
tans, where rivers like serpents lie
curied,
We shall pass the wall of the mountains,
crouched low on the edge of the
world:
TIL the last low ledge of the lea
Makes division,
Till the wild wide waste of the sea
Fills our vision
And the bonds of allegiance that fetter the
spirit, the oaths of obedience sworn
in the past,
Shall be words of the lesson of life we in
herit, embraced. understood, super
seeded al last;
We are done with the gods of our old adj
Grafton, we acknowledge they served
in their turn and were fair,
Brt we go, for behold after long prepara-
tion what no man has dared to dis
cover, we dare.
Till the body and soul and all time
Shall be blended,
Aspiration and virtue and crime
Comprehended.
We must fathom the sense and the spirit
till We stand self-possessed of the
whole
Onward ever and outward ever. over the
uttermost verge of the Soul!

flowers and nearly every foot of her

looked thrifty and bore evidence of
care. The little white house back
of the flower garden had plants in
the two front windows, and climbing
vines completely covered the small,
