eighteen He took up yachting with
the same intensity that he ran his
business; and that is why he has pro-
duced so much impression on the Amer

Upton is of Scotch-rish blood He

years old he sailed for America to seek
his fortune. The capital with which
he started business was $500, lent TO
him by his father. He came into prom

The new enterprise., 1903-09-10

That. however, included 100000 which
ne paid to Count Florio Of Italy for
the fine yacht which the count called
the Aegusa, and which is now known
as the Erin. This would leave bis
actual racing expenses in 1899 at S4OO,
600. 1t is probable that the cost OF
the second races TO him was a little
over that figure, but still within S0O'
600. In other words, including the
sum Of S500,O00 or thereabouts for
the purchase and reftting of the Erin
the total cost to the challenger in the
last two series of races was somewhere
In the neighborhood OF $l,3OO,OOO,
But the cost of the Erin Is not or
course, a legitimate factor In the esti'
mate of the actual racing expenses
Probably these last for both series
were about Ss50,000.
Leaving the yacht proper and coming
TO the collateral expenses, there is as
the largest item the cost Of running
the steam yacht Erin, for, say, the two
months she actually is in service in
connection with the races This was
estimated by a man familiar with the
subject at $4,000 a montb-S60,0O0 In

REVIVAL OF OLD PEWTER.

REVIVAL or OLD PEWTER.
The antique platters and basins that
have been hidden away on remote
shelves or in garret rooms have been
brought to light again, and as trui'
dishes and table centre-pieces pewter
trays, tobacco jars and beer sets are
now quite the thing.
The best quality of pewter taxes q
high polish and outlasts any other ar
tIcle in the house. 1t is costlier than
nlckled or lacquered ware, and Is ap'
preclated for the reason that 1t Is unu'
sual.
Among the articles into which 1t Is
made are quaint boxes for the dressing
table, incense holders, Japanese and
Chinese rose jars, some OF these arti'
cles initiating ivory carvings very ef'
fectiyely. In the old pewter work are
found grotesque designs, such as fab
uous birds, mythical beasts and dra-
gons and celestial bodies. There are
also curious medallion frames and pic
ture mountlngs,
The modern pewter wares are mostly
reproductions Of the old work, this
metal seeming to lend itself more read
fly to the quaint, unusual designs.
Beer sets on FURNISHED trays, and
loving cups, showing fat, Jolly frlars
and monks at table, or gay peasants,

An English Idea of a Safety Lamp.

A prize Of $50 or $3.50. was offered at
the grocers' exhibition at the Agricul-
tural hall in London recently for safe
lamp for burning kerosene, that is, for
those who use lamps as missiles.
The lamp was not to cost more than
1s3d at wholesale. The kind of lamp
which is looked upon in London as a
safety lamp is Interestingly set forth
i'll the following abstract from the Pc
troIeum Industrial and Technical Re
view:
The desire of directors was to produce
n cheap lamp, which could be sold even
in the poorest districts, and which could
be used with the maximum of safety.
and one which required the minimum Of
technical knowledge III handling. They
did not require lamp which needed the
inventor sold with it in order to enable
it to act; they wanted to find lamp
that would be safe when man came
home drunk at night One of the most
serious problems of London was as 10
how they could protect those afflicted
with drunkenness against themselves.
Therefore. they wanted to find a lamp
which. if thrown by a drunken man at
his wife or children, would automatically
put itself out, so that the man, if he un-
fortunately inflicted any injury on his
wife. should not, Mt the same time, burn
down his house and set fire to his chill
dreu.-Scicntilc American.

THE WINDOWS OF THE SOUL.
Honest Eyes and the Other Kind-The
Speaking Glance.

The eye is the most honest and the
most daring feature of the face, and
sometimes it is the most beautiful 1t is
the window through which the soul looks
If it is a dauntlcss soul, we recognize it
and see ii as plainly as a face reflected in
IL mirror for character filings it's banners
to the world from this human oriel.
The eye cannot be taught the restraint
and dissemblance to which the mouth can
be trained. Should You doubt n woman S
words look in her eyes-they are certain
to bctr0y her if her speech be false. The
utmost they can do is to assume cool in
difference, and that is a Eimsy mask for
deceit
Beware OF shifty eyes. that seek to
evade your questioning glance. 1t would
be a waste of time to listen to the
tongues dcnials or excuses after they
have hung out the signal "Untrust-
worthy"
This expression cannot be taken for
timidty. There is "A world of difference
between the two. Timid eyes are dcpre-
eating and cntrcating questioning the
world, which is their apparent bogie. In
reality they are Self-Oppressed, more
afraid Of their own feelings than of the
folk surrounding them, and they need
encouragement.
Eyes are even more democratic than
their owners. They wait for no intro
duction and invade the most carefully
guarded privacy with inSistenr, search
ing chances. Women need an expression
of amiable Indifference as a safe armor
as they mingle in the crowds Of great
city In their days Of domestic seclusion
the caution dinned into the ears Of Ewes
daughters, "IIave guard upon your
lips" was well enough justified by the
mode of life and its narrower interests.
but to fit il to prescnt-day needs il should
read "eyes" instead of lips" Many a
young girl. by her too frank and familiar
glance, invites the advance which offends
and sometimes even insults her One
should not take the public too readily
into ones confidence. and the ''speaki
glance" does this often nvoluntarily.-

THE MISSION OF HUMOR.
Philosophy of Laugh and Grow Fat
The Man Who Never Smiles
is Morbid.

There is a mission for humor. The
man who can make others laugh may be
a great blessing to his fellows. There
are times in ones experience when bit
of fun is better, more means of grace
than a serious sermon would be. There
are times when the best help we can
give to Il friend is 10 make him laugh
"A merry heart is a good medicine
says the wise man. A hearty laugh
would cure many a sickly feeling, driving
away the blues and changing the whole
aspect of lie for Il man.
They tell us that laughter is dying out
among men. If so, it is pity. 1t would
be sad thing if laughter should be alto
gether crowded out of life, There are
other exercises which we could much bet
human beings with no laughter-men and
women wearing everywhere and always
FERROUS, solemn faces, with no relaxing
OF the sternnesS on any occasion. Think
Of the laughter of childhood departing
from the world, ana the laughter of youth
