FEBRUARY
BY STUART MAGICIAN.

Thou clustering short-lived, busy February,
Thou month different from the ordinary!
For, introduction-a preliminary,
First comes the ground hog, tmorous and wary,
To spy out elusive luminary;
And then the Carnival, when customary
With mask and mirth to quaf your good brown sherry
And laugh and Jest let yourself be merry.
Follows the day for lovers literary
To dream of Cupid, Loves auxiliary;
And then comes Lent when, armed with breviary.
We do confess much necessary;
And last the day of tales imaginary,
OF George, refusing comfort temporary
BY ying-that old fable of the cherry.
And in between all these, It's necessary
To marry, work and live and die and bury
So hail, thou extraordinary,
Thou clustering, short-ved February!

Orioin of the Doawateh.

The dogwatch on shipboard is
either of the short spells from 4 to
6 o'clock in the evening or from 6
to s to break the monotony of the
regular four hour watches, so that
the same men will not stand watch
during the same hours every day.
If, however, you should ask the most
nautical person of your acquaint-
ance OF, indeed, all the nautical peo-
pie you know why this is so called,
you would probably find them un-
able to tell you. The true answer
is this: Dogwatch is a corruption
Of dodge watch. The dogwatch was
introduced to prevent the same men
from always keeping watch the same
hours of the day; hence onrthese oc-
casions the sailors are said to dodge
the routine or to be doing dodge
watch.-Philadelphia Record.

A SPELLING LESSON.
With aWiss child's Comment About
The EnaIish language.

The following illustration of a
shilfs spelling lesson and her apt
conclusion in regard to the orthog-
raphy of the English language is
taken from New York publication:
"Spell toes" said the mother,
who was teaching her little daugh-
ter, seven years old, to spell.
-"T-o-z-e," answered the child.
mo, dear, that's not right.
Toes spells toes"
"But it sounds like t-o-z-e."
81 know it, but you cannot go by
the sound"
Then in order to enforce the
proposition the mother called upon
her daughter to spell frog.
"T-r-o-e-s," said the child.
"No. You're wrong again. This
time we do use the e and spell the
word f-r-o-z-e."
"Huhp exclaimed the child.
Nov spell rose," said the moth
err.
The child hesitated. Finally she
said, 81 don't know whether to say
r-o-z-e or r-o-e-s."
"Spell it r-o-s-e," said the moth
er, Though there is another word
pronounced just like it that's spell
ed r-o-e-s. That word is the name
Of the spawn of fishes"
The child looked perple1ed.
Gust one word more" said the
mother. "Tell me how you spell
blows"
vWell," said the little girl, who
had had quite enough nonsense, as
she viewed it, from her mother and
had suddenly made up her mind to
pay back in kind, 81 spell it three
ways. | spell it b-l-o-s-e for break
fast, b-l-o-e-s for dinner and
b.i-o-z-e for supper"
81 spell it blows" said the
mother.
The child was silent for a minute
as if wrapped in thought. Then,
looking up, she solemnly remarked,
81 think, mamma, that the English
language was made for persons very,
very well educated"

Nelson,s Sianalman.

1t was in the winter of 1916 that
Nelson's signalman--the man who
hoisted the famous England ex-
pects," etc.-was discovered by one
who had served as surgeon on board
the Tonnant at Trafalgar. The sig
mailman. John Roome, was selling
water cress and red herrings, in
Blackfriars. He had deserted from
the navy after the battle, and this
had disqualified him for a pension,
but representations were made to
Captain Pasco, signal lieutenant on
the Victory at Trafalgar, who used
his influence on the old mans be-
half. Captain PascO was at first
unsuccessful. He was informed by
the authorities that There were
many more deserving candidates for
tireenwich. Shortly afterward, how
ever, room was found at Greenwich
hospital for old John. Had he lived
in our time he would probably have
received a princely salary for re-
peating the signal nightly at music
halls.-LondOn Chronicle.
