All united in saying that it was the
finest trip they ever took and the

the pilgrims was afflicted with NAL de

deed record, as few escape twinge
of seasickness on their first trip
across the briny to the island.
The flying fish they encountered re-
suited in bets being made among the
official family that someone could
catch the nimble fish, but they all
failed to get their hands on them.
Exalted Ruler Tom Homer and his
staff led the rush from the shore to

 But if you are foolishly going to let the lads future drift until 1t Is too late. take warning by the criminal statistics. gathered from representative prisons. They have a positive bearing on the mat ter. Criminals in the greatest majority of cases. aside from the aftermath of degeneracy ana envInonmrnt are made by the lack of good trade. Over ninety per cent of the crimes against property are committed by young men who have neither the ability nor skill to honestly earn money enough for the qualification Of their tastes. They are men without a trade. Of the exceedingly small num- Der of jailbirds who have trades. over fifty per cent are men who have some trade of the unremunerative or jackleg sort A

Walking and Shaving

How far doss an ordinary man walk in n lifetime? Different men have divers strides and occupations, but 1t can be safely set down that tine average man walks at least two miles a day-even If 1t Is only his strolls around his office. to lunch and at home. If many many men-and they are not canvassers nt that-had a pedOmetcr attached 10 their leg. Ii would regist r over three miles at bedtime. The average man. who walks only two miles n day. will at the end of 30 years have walked 2l.9OJ miles, and will only fall 5000 short of having walked around the world.
 How far does n razor travel over a mans face in the average lifetime? Dur ing the span of life the razor blade prob ably scrapes about twenty miles. On the dark skinned man it will travel fur. ther-because of the number of double strokes and re-shavings necessary on the light haired man much less. How are these Interesting figures arrived at? By carefully noting the length of strokes in the average shave over the average face. the blade is found to travel about Gs inches. The wellgroomed man. who slaves every day. can easily see that he has scraped over 2.OS0 feet-or less than half q mile in year
 If there Is any moral in the foregoing, t Is In showing up the importance ot the little things of life. For instance, bad habit, however trivial. may become dreadful monr' 1T ut the end of one year.
