How the Gorilla Walks.

The gorilla has not only a crouchins
habit, but he walks on all four of his
legs and has the motion Of most quad
rupeds, using his right arm and left
leg at the same time, and alternates
with the left arm and right leg. 1t is
not exactly a walk or trot. but a
kind Of ambling gait, while the CHM
panzee uses his arms as crutches, but
lifts one foot from the ground a little
in advance of the other. He does not
place the palm of the hand on the
ground, but uses the back of the fin
gers from the second joint.

A ieCend of Nantucket,

whom he threw into the sea there. He

Of that old Nantucket captain who was
accustomed to make his reckonings by

some earth brought on board ship from

MARINE ART.
Virtues and Defects of the Ships
That sailors Paint.

It is an axiom with sailors that there
never was a man who put in three
years before the mast who did not
think he could paint a ship better than
the most skillful landlub6er that ever
welded brush. In the homes OF re-
tired sea captains specimens of TINS
kind of marine art are often displayed
on the walls to admirng friends anu
are handed down as family he.r.ooma.
A good place for the man who has NJ
seagoiny relatives or friends to see
such pictures is in soine of the win,
dows Of ship supply stores on South
street IL New York. Sailors buy then
caSionaly.
Ships that sailors paint are absolutely
correct in every detail. From n brig tc

ADVANCE IN COTTON GOOCS
Canadian Mills Put UP Price Because
Of Price of Raw Cotton.

st. Johns, \. b, Dec. An advance
in the price Of cotton goods ordered by
the Cornwall and York mills here, is
not an exceptional move in the trade.
1t now develops that an advance is be-
ing made by Gotten mills throughout
Canada on account of the increasing
value Of raw material. The Gibson
mills Of MarysVilie, the largest in east
ern Canada, have ordered an advance,
and the mills at Moncton and Mill
town, in this province, and those of
Nova Scotia will meet the increase.
It is further announced that the Can
adian Mills company, the combination
which controls majority of the fac
tories in the country, in a day or two
will send out circulars, ordering an adj
vance in the price Of goods, running all
the way from IA to 3-4c per yard.

Music the Kernel of welsh Nature.

Music is the very soul and kernel Of
the Welsh nature \ musical ear is the
national birthright. Every Welsh
preacher who migrates to an English
church finds the greatest difficulty in
abstaining from that weird, peculiar
intonation Of his sermon Which is
known us the hwyl ana which is often
strange and Objectionable to English
ears.
a remarkable and subtle fact which
will be interesting to English readers
and at the same time significant OF the
scuSitivcncss of the Welsh musical ear
is that it is positive dlscord 10 many
among the Welsh congregations if the
minister, in giving out the first verse
of the hymn, does not so pitch his voice
that it shall be in harmony with the
key in which the tune las prelh1ina-
rily been played by the instrunentalist.

The Christmas turkey has but a few
weeks longer to live.

From away out in Oklahoma there
comes a new decision relative to kisses
and breach of promise suits. An at
tempt was made to reflect upon the
character of the plaintiff. a young lady
on the ground that she had been seen
hugging and kissing the young man.
The judge, who eyinces the wisdom of
a Solomon in judging human nature,
promptly ruled that this was no evi
dence of bad character because, said
he, all men hug and kiss women and
for every woman that is kissed there
is man who does the kissing, 50 wo-
men have from time immemorial con-
sented to being hugged and kissed. For
this reason he refused to condemn the
trait as bad one.
