Maryland Day.

Maryland Day vas appropriately cele-
brated on Friday by the pupils of North
Keys School. The efficient young teacher,
Miss Louise Berry, took great pains to
prepare an interesting program and to
acquaint more fully her pupils with the
history of our state.
The entire school wore the state colors
| and all seemed inspired with the spirit of
the day: An interesting feature OF the
| program was a debate.
Through the efforts of Miss Berry a
paper, to which the pupils contribute, is
edited in the school.
The following was the program for the
day:

Piracy flourishes in the Canton delta
and along the China coast in that vi
cinity. The last report of the British
consul-general at Canton has an in
teresting story of this modern piracy.
During the past year there were half
dozen serious organized attacks on
British steam launches. Chinese pas
senger launches and boats are fire.
Quently held up and plundered. Com
plants are made to the local authori-
ties, but nothing is really done to pro-
tect trade. Even within the precincts
of the harbor pirates and robbers

people are left to protect themselves
as best they may and such is their
fear and dread of having anything to
do with Chinese authorities that no
man, whatever his grievance or wrong,
will readily venture to apply to the
magistrate for assistance or redress.

tells seriously against all develop

Method Of Killing Seals

bulls show fight and rush at the driv-
ers with surprising speed and agility
when pressed too hard AS they are
driven to the killing grounds their gait
is sort of canter, as they raise thSm-
selves. on their fiippers and then pull
their heavy bodies up. They repeat
this movement rapidly for hundred
yards and then fall, painting and ex-
hausted The method of killing adopt
ed infiicts less suffering on the victims
than any other that could be devised.
But one who has witnessed the opera
tion will not wish to see 1t again.
Those who do the killing are ma
tives who are expert at the business,
each armed with stout club about
Eve feet long and three inches thick
at the heavy end. They cut out twen-
ty or thirty of the struggling creatures
and, striking each one on the head,
crush the soft, thin skull. Death is in
Simultaneous. AS the club falls with
thud upon each graceful head those
that have escaped the first crushing
blows seem to become conscious of
their impending fate and their appeal
ing eyes, soft as those of deer, their
plaintive cries and their Intellectual
efforts to escape would certainly stay
the arm of any not schooled by years
and generations to do this work. The
stranger to the scene is forced to turn
away, though he must admit that not
a throb of conscious pain follows the
descent of the heavy club"

Bordering on the miraculous is the
case of Mrs. Benz. Wilson, of this
place. Suffering from Sugar Diabetes,
she wasted away till from weighing
200 lbs. she barely tipped the scales at
130 lbs. '.Dodd's Kidney Pills cured
her. Speaking of her cure her hus-
band, says:
MY wife suffered everything from
Sugar Diabetes. She was sick four
years and doctored with two doctors,
but received no benefit. She had so
much pain all over her that she could
not rest day or night. The doctors
said that she could not live.
Then an advertisement led me to
try Dodd's Kidney Pills and they
helped her right from the first. Five
boxes of them cured her. Dodd's Kid
ney Pills were a God-sent remedy to
us and we recommend them to all suf-
fering from Kidney Disease"

The Joys of Reminiscence

1t makes me forget I'm alone on the sea,
With a half-broken plank 'twixt the bot

For youth is the mainmast and love Is

While "courtship' and smack bear me

And I'm gay as the rest In the mirth or
the dance,
While the night glides away like an hour
OF trance.
And the, lass at my side is the belle of
the ball.
Who keeps even step in her whirl round
the hall,
While with rattle Of heel and with trip
ple-touch toe
We allemande left to the swing of the

stream
We finish the breakdown" the end of

Then wake and review all the struggles

And i laugh at the thought of my being
placed back
Full twoscore of years on life's varying
track.

pIpIonatIst Was Not Worrying.

A story is told in Paris of diplo-
matist who represented South
American republic a few years ago.
There had been so many revolutions
at home that the financiers there had
no time to send him his salary. But
he took this misfortune philosophical
ly, sold all the furniture of the lega-
ton except a bed, table and some
chairs and occupied one room with his
principal attache, who cooked the
meals. Anyone who called early on
the minister would probably find him
cleaning the boots. What would you

"reminiscences of the pre-Christian
DAYS of Baal worship and fire worship

festival of the clavie' takes place in
Burghead, fishing town near Forres.
On q headland in that village still
stands an old Roman altar, locally
called the 'douro.' On the evening of
Jan. 12 large tar barrel is set on fire
and carried by one of the fishermen

John Scudder McLain in his Alas
ka" thus describes the business of se-
curing sealskins: "The killing is al
ways done early in the morning when
the temperature is lowest. 1t was 5
o'clock in the morning when we left
the ship. The killing season was prac-
tically over, but the agents had ar
ranged a drive for our benefit. The
seals lie alone the rocky. shores, the
bulls, or 'beachmasters,' as they are
called, and the cows and their pups
occupying the rocks nearest the water,
while the bachelors, the young un-
mated males, are forced to go farther
up the beach. AS only the bachelors
are killed for their skins, this natural
division facilitates the work of the
drivers in making their selections. Two
or three drivers slip in and cut out,
as the cowboys would say, bunch for
the days killing. They proceed to
make a great noise by shouting, slap
ping pieces of boards together and
beating on tin cans. The seals are
frightened and the squirming, huddling
mass is gradually forced away from
the rookery.
Now here they come, bleating like
a flock of sheep, ambling in their
awkward fashion through the tall
grass. 1'ne young males and the few
females which the drivers will not try
to separate from the herd until the
killing ground is reached offer no re-
sistance. But the two or three old
