A DYNAMITE EPISODE.

Early IN the sixties a foreign IL
ventor offered the secret Of a new
explosive that he had discovered to
the British government. He asked
for it an insignificant price, some
thing under 5000. After he had
been kept waiting three months and
had made repeated applications for
a decision he was informed that his
offer was declined with thanks, as
neither the war office nor the board
of trade saw anything in his inyen-
ton. The foreigner was a Swede, by
name Alfred Nobel. His invention
was dynamite. Ny friend has only
too good cause to remember the incl
dent, for Nobel had offered him a
half share IN the profits if he would
finance him to the extent of 500
kroner. Unfortunately for him, my
friend was young and still cherished
illusions in regard to the wisdom
of governments and their officials,
and the consequence was that when
he learned the views of the British
experts he also declined the offer
with thanks. But for his simple
faith he would today be a million
aire.-London Truth.

The chloroform AGE.

There was nothing new in DR.. Os-
ler's little joke about applying chic
reform at the age of sixty. The
idea antedates the discovery of chic
reform by twenty-five centuries or
so. One Of the Greek islands in the
Hgean sea is called Coos. The ira
ditions of this island are exceedingly
old. The place is chiefly renowned
now for its raisins, but there was a
time when it was famous for its
laws. The excellence of these laws
was so generally recognized that the
phrase "Cean laws" passed into a
proverb. One of these excellent"
laws, which forbade a citizen" in
the language of the Encyclopaedia
Britannica, "to protract his life be-
yond sixty years, affords a curious
instance of the application of the
utilitarian principle"

Tho Rritiah Rathino FaIIaoy.

One Of the earliest impressions Of
an American in London is that Eng
lishmen regard a bath as a luxury
and not as matter of course
luxury to be paid for. At the hotel
he has landed in he must pay 2 shil-
lings for warm bath. And his con
clusion is that the Englishman, in
spite Of his traditional tub, is not a
clean man. He cannot afford to be
clean in a London hotel.
Two warm baths a day. That is
the Americans average. -Four shil-
ings. He has a wife and a son and
daughter. Sixteen shillings a day.
Reckon out the expense, and you
viii find that this man must pay
about $500 year to keep himself
and his family clean. The Ameri-
can visitor has figured out that at
least twelve calls on that bath ar
made every day. Nine hundred a
year profit from a bathroom thf
certainly did not cost 5000 in t
building l-London Chronicle.

While boarders gainst a dented wall

As they glanced the table DER
And recognized, in a chowdered form,
Some things they'd seen before.

Fresh Ioaves and tender meat?

They sought a bit to eat

American capitaI saved EnaIand.

Were there no United States
would English society be solvent?
asks Marmaduke in the London
Graphic. That question has never
vet been asked or examined. Sew
eral millions have been brought into
our society during the last forty
years by American heiresses, and an
enormous sum has been received in
exchange for land, paintings, en-
cravings, old furniture, works of
art, jewels, plate and books. More
over, American capital has been IN
vested in this country mostly
through the Intervention of titled
Engishmen, who, of course, have
generally benefited by the transac-
ton. Probably $100,0O0,0O0 has
come to the west end through these
various transactions. Would the
west end have been bankrupt had
that sum not been procurable?

Miss Agnes Kersey. the captain. Is
the foremost exponent Of swimming as
an art among the sextet. She Is Il
graduate of the Melton High school
and was the best basket ball player at
the school. She is of rugged consti-
tuition and delights in all kinds of ath-
letics. Learning to swim three years
ago, she proved SO proficient pupil
that she soon distanced the professors
who were her instructors. All the
various styles Of swimming, floating.
treading water and all the other diff
cult feats of aquatic sports are at her
command. and she is apparently tire
less when in the water. Her friends
call her "the amphib" because. they de-
clare, she spends more time in the wa
ter than on land. In the summer Of
1902 she saved ten-year-old boy who
had gone beyond his depth. and last
season she assisted several persons to
shore who would surely have drowned
had 1t not been for her assistance.
The Kersey family Is family Of
swimmers, and Miss Mary Kersey, a
sister of the captain, is another young
woman who is entirely fearless in the
water and who swims for recreation
distances that would make most male
swimmers tired to contemplate. Her
delight in the surf even exceeds that
Of her sister, and she says that were
1t not for the notoriety 1t would at
tract she would swim each day, winter
and summer. A year ago she rescued a
woman and her child who were thrown
out Of a catboat by a sudden squall,
picking them up and swimming with
them until help arrived.
Miss Georgina Milne is another Of
the crew who has two lives to her
credit in rescues. She saved two chill
dren at savin Hill beach last year and
made both rescues in one day. Miss
Milne is one Of the few young women
who understand and appreciate base
ball game, she being one Of the most
enthusiastic fans on the eastern coast
Of Massachusetts.
Miss Margaret Mills also comes nat
urally by her ability in the water.
Her family are all good swimmers.

Hill beach stretches along the shore at
the head of Dorchester bay. a long,
ideal bathing beach, and the visitors at
the seashore frequent the surf there In
crowds. Each day during the bathing
season there is some one among the
bathers who either through poor swim

mems life saving crew at the beach,
composed of volunteers from the men
at the beach and in Dorchester. For
two years this crew of men watched
the beach daily during the bathing

who had ventured out too far In the
surf from meeting q watsry grave.
