Camping Ont.

Timely is the warning given by a
well-known actor against the folly Of
sleeping on the ground to which peo-
pie who camp out are addicted. Leav-
ing behind them feather beds. hair
mattresses, close sleeping-rooms and
artificial heat available for cool sum-
mer days, they expose themselves to
the sharp night air OF the open, lying
down OF the cold bosom of mother
earth. They expect to derive imme.
date benefit and much vigor from
this. Well for them If they do not
fall victims Of rheumatism and bron-
chitis.
A safe general principle to follow
is that the higher above the ground
one sleeps the more healthful will be
ones slumber. Campers out should
allow themselves the luxury Of cot
beds, or, at all events, should sleep
in hammocks swung at least six feet
above the ground.
1t is the height of absurdity for peo-
pie accustomed to the ar~tificialitles
of modern life to attempt emulation
Of Indian customs. We are no longer
robust, as in the primitive age Of the
world, when luxury was yet unimag-
ined. Folly of this kind will make the
summer vacation injurious instead

Florence and Venice and the rest
are cursed with the burden of a most
dangerous legacy from their past
the legacy of beauty. Because of this
beauty (Which the people themselves
do not enjoy the rich of all nations
flock to them, bringing full purses and
a disposition to spare no expense. The
native begins to regard these visitors
as his natural prey. Why should he
work when foreigners are so easily
feeced? Accordingly he does not
work-at least in the productive sense.
He touts and begs and sells ornaments
a. three times their real value.
The victory instead of going to
strength goes to weakness. Parents
Of the poorer class look upon a de-
formed or crippled child as a blessing,
since its pitiful helplessness makes it
a more efficient beggar. Into these
cities. where such a fine harvest can
be gathered on such easy terms, the
strong, Industrious %peasantry are
sucked until they become idle, demon
allied gamblers. And all because they
are the most beautiful places in the
world; because their past is so glor-
ious that strangers come from the ends
of the earth to see its grave. Thus
the modern Florentine lives like some
horrible cannibal, upon his own dead
London Outlook.

of the course, with the wind Oyer the

the reach for home, during which the
breeze shifted somewhat to westward,
Reliance gained forty-fiye seconds.

Sir Thomas Upton. on the second
defeat of Shamrock III. by Reliance,
philosophically said: You have all
seen the results, and the only thing I
cal say is that. we did better to-day
than in the last race. which is hopeful.
I figure my defeat at a little over n

in the next race as l have in this one
over the last I'll be a good bit ahead
when the finish line is reached. l was
more than pleased at the way my boat
was handled to-day.
1T is hard to admit it, but the best
boat won. Perhaps if we had had
more wind at the finish the result
might have been different. But i do
not want to throw cold water on the
victory. 1t is hard to win every~race

In returning from the yacht race in
the afternoon the steamboat Mon
mouth, loaded with member Of the
New York Yacht Club, and j. p. Nor
CAMS yacht, the Corsair, were in COLI

The Corsair was on the starboard
side of the Monmouth, and the two
were steaming in parallel lines. The
COrsair suddenly DETECTED to port. ex-
pecting, presumably. that the Mon
mouth would do the same. But the
Monmouth was unable to do so, owing
to the fact that the Josephine, also
loaded with people. was on her port
side. The prov of the big black yacht
struck the Monmouth amidships. For
~tunately she slid off, tearing away the
awnings and the rail of the Monmouth.
The Corsair also was somewhat dam
aged, n of her lifeboats being

rho uDull Season.n

Why should there be a dull season
In business? OF course, some times
during the year business is better than
during others, but that there should
be a really dull season is much the
fault Of the business man himself.
There can be no dull season where
advertising is continued all the time.
There are men in local commercial
pursuits who advertise only when
buying is active: men who ask for
patronage only when everybody is de-
termined to buy something. There
are men who advertise only about the
Christmas season and do not ask for
patronage at any other time, and there
are other men who do not advertise
at all.
These r the men who for the most
part have dull seasons. As a fact
they have few seasons that are. not
more or less dull. The non-advertiser
fails to get the cream of any business
at any time. His more alert competi-e
tor gets it all the time. Nor does in
termittent advertising bring the re-
suits desired. To make success a cer-
tainty advertising should be continu-
GUS, should know no seasons except
in the change of goods in demand, ana
should be convincing and well dis.
played. The man who so stimulates
his business has no time to be dull.
