The Liquor She FIoated In.

On their arrival in New Zealand
party of English people drank the
health of the vessel which had
brought them safely to their desti-
nation. One of the gentlemen who
was asked to join in this ceremony
replied:
mo; | am a teetotaler, but I'll
willingly drink success to the ship
in the liquor she floats in"
A friend disappeared and return
ed with a glass Of water.
After a complimentary apostro-
phe to the ship the recipient tossed
the water off at once, but immedi-
ately spluttered:
"Ugh-ah -oh-this is-oh-
what-what on earth is this ?"
sThat ?" said his friend. "Why,
you've drunk success to our noble
ship in the identical liquor she
floats in. London Tit-Bits.

Now that Bellingham has been
voted dry and the liquor dealers
there are given until January l,
1911, to close their places of bust
ness, the Bellingham Municipal Lea
que composed of 500 of that city's
best and most influential citizens,
has promised that it shall be kept
dry and to see that both the spirit
and the letter of the law are enfor-
ced. The Islander hopes the League
has not undertaken too great task
and that it will be able to fulfill it's
promises. If the city is made to be
truly dry it will be but short
time until it is all the better for it..
A dozen or more ''blind pigs .
would be far worse than to have
the forty-four licensed saloons as at
present, provided these are con-
Quoted in strict accordance with the
law. There is no reason why the To-

but the Municipal League will have
to 'get busy ndskeep busy to see

HIS INTRODUCTION.

Acquainted at Home.

The Happy Way a Young Fellow os.
Acquainted at Home.
How young fellow who had got
into the habit of spending all his
evenings away from home was
brought to his senses is related in
the Baptist Commonwealth:
One afternoon his father came to
him and asked him if he had any
engagement for the evening. The
young man had not.
"Well, I'd like to have you 60
somewhere with me-"
Call right" said he. "Where
shall I meet your"
The rest Of the story is in the
young mans own words.
t1He suggested the Columbia no.
tel at half past Z, and I was there,
When he appeared he said he want
ed me to call with him on lady.
tOne I knew quite well when I was
a young man. he explained.
eve went out and started
straight for home.
"sShe is staying at our house, he
said.
sI thought it strange that he
should have made the appointment
for the Columbia under those cir
cumstances, but said nothing.
HWell, we went in, and I was in.
troduced with all due formality to
my mother and sister.
fsThe situation struck me as fun
ny, and I started to laugh, but the
laugh died away. None Of the three
even smiled. Ny mother and sister
shook hands with me, and my moth
er said she remembered me as a
boy, but hadn't seen much Of me
lately. Then she invited me to be
seated.
1T wasn't q bit funny then, al
though I can laugh over it now. ]
sat down, and she told me one OF
two. anecdotes Of my boyhood, at
which we all laughed for little.
Then we four played games for
awhile. When 1 finally retired
was invited to call again. I went
upstairs feeling pretty small and do
ing good deal Of thinking"
And then" asked his compan-
ion.
Then | made up my mind that
my mother was an entertaining wo-
man and my sister bright girl.
I'm going to call again. I enjoy
their company and intend to cult
vate their acquaintance"

Lucky Escape.

It was poor effort made to defend

! Revolution In Art.
BEFORE the days Of Reynolds,
t1a;nsborough and Constable Eng
lish artists did not expect any one
IL to- nav such prices for their pictures
a for those of foreigners or even to
Inv ANYTHING but portrait. What
e ~ / do with itY' an English con-
no;sseur is said to have replied to q
aent1eman who had asked him why
6e did not purchase historical pic
tire he greatly admired. "You
surely would not have me hang up

house unless it was a Portrait
The cause of this low estimate Of
Enolish art may be seen in the facts
mentioned by Mrs. Bell in her Life
and Works of Thomas Gainsbor-
ouoh." She says that the first at
tempt made in England to represent
a modern historical event exactly as
it occurred was made by Benjamin
West in his famous picture of the
sDeath of Wolfe," exhibited in
1T71.
Such was then the rage for
NEUROLOGICAL subjects that when it
was rumored that West was paint
ing a picture in which the actors
were represented in modern cos
tune George Ill, the archbishop of
Canterbury and members of the
ROYAL academy declared that they
would have nothing to do with the
bold innovator.
Sir Joshua REYNOLDS and the
archbishop visited West in his stu
dio to urge him to clothe English
and French soldiers in the costume
of antiquity. West refused saying
that the event to be commemorated
happened in the year 1853 in a
region unknown to the Greeks and
Romans and when no warriors who
wore classical costume existed. His
visitors went away, but returned
when the picture was finished.
Reynolds seated himself before
the picture, examined it for half an
hour and then, rising, said to the
archbishop: "West has conquered.
He has treated the subject as it
ought to be treated. I retract my
objections. | foresee that this pic
ture will not only become popular,
but will occasion a revolution in
art"
The picture turned the tide
against the classicism which had
prevented the English artists from
producing original pictures.
Even portrait painters, except
Gainsborough alone, represented
their sitters as Psyches and Cupids,
Dianas and Junos, the Graces and
the Fates. One artist painted the
portraits of a lady and daughter as
Virtue and Beauty Sacrificing to
Diana"

4 WINDOW MIRROR.
Transparent From the Inside, but !
looking Glass Outside.

looking Glass Oueeide.
In transparent mirrors, used -
screens and in windows, the coating
Is placed on one side Of the glass
just the same as the silvering on the
mirror and has the same properties
of rejecting the rays Of light and
color. The difference, however, is
that when looked at from the back
the coating is entirely transparent.
To one sitting indoors the view
without is not DISTRACTED in the
least, but a pedestrian peering into
the window or doorway is greeted
by his own reflection. The glass is
used largely in lieu Of screens where
privacy is desired without obstruc-
ton Of light from the outside OF
barring the vision of those inside.
The method of securing this eff
feet is as follows:
Dissolve one part by weight Of
silver nitrate in ten parts by weight
of water and label No. /. Prepare
another 10 per cent solution Of sill
yer nitrate, but in larger quantity.
To this add ammonia water, drop
by drop, stirring carefully until the
precipitate formed at first is COM
pletely dissolved, and label No. 2.
Now add solution No. l to solution
No. 2 until the odor of ammonia is
no longer recognizable and the
liquid has again become very tur-
bid. Now add 100 parts by weight
of distilled water for every part of
silver nitrate originally used in So
luton No. 2 and filter until clear.
Label this No.A3. Prepare a reduc-
ing solution by dissolving g part
by weight Of Rochelle salt in 384
parts by weight of distilled water,
boil and to the boiling solution add
gradually a solution of three parts
of silver nitrate in ten parts by
weight of distilled water and filter
when cool and label No. 4. Clean
the glass to be coated thoroughly,
lay it on a perfectly level surface in
a room at temperature Of about Is
degrees G. (77 degrees F.. Mix
equal parts Of No. 8 (the depositing
fui6 and No. 4 (the reducing fluid)
and pour over the glass. The glass
may, if preferred, be dipped into the
solution. The time required for the
deposition of the layer of silver of
just the correct thickness has to be
determined by the judgment of the
operator in each case, and this may
be aided somewhat by observing a
piece of white paper below the plate
of glass. When a sufficient deposit
of silver has been made, and much
less is required than for an ordinary
mirror, pour off the silvering liquid
and rinse thoroughly with the dis
titled water and stand the mirror
on edge to dry, coat the silvered
side with a solution of colorless
shellac in alcohol and finally frame
the mirror with a backing of clear
glass to protect the mirror surface
from hpinC scratched

Patronize Home Concerns

There are doubtless some who
will be benefited by the opening
Of a big Grange cooperative estab-
lishment in Seattle, but the Islander
fails TO see wherein the farmers OF
this county, who have subscribed
for stock in the concern, are to be
benefited to any great extent. AS
we view the matter it is chiefly a
nroposition to add another big es-
tablishment to that city and to fur
nish lucrative employment for few
who have been active in promoting
the enterprise. What good reason
can there be for residents of this
county, who have toiled for years
to build for themselves fine homes
here, sending their money to Seattle
to help build up that city whose
residents care nothing more for the
farmers here than to get what they
can out of them? 1t is true that
the man who works hard for what
he acquires should not be criticised
for spending his money as he sees
fit. but would it not seem more
reasonable for him to spend it at
home and by so doing benefit the
community in which he resides and
makes his living? Every time the
property holder does something to
help his own town or county he does
just that much to increase the value
of his property, while on the other
hand every time he sends his money
away from home he does that which
lessons its value.
All who reside and make their
living here should lose no oppor-
unity to boost and boost hard for
every proposition that looks good or
that can in any possible way be Of
benefit to this community. Don't
let us take a backward step. Have
you ever heard of Seattle man
boosting for Friday Harbor or San
Juan county unless he had some
selfish motive in view? No, and
you never will.
Those at the head Of this co-opera-
tive movement promise to furnish
the farmer with goods at prices less
than they can be had for at home
and this is what appeals to the ones
who purchase stock in the new con-
Germ. The Islander questions
whether there will be any saving
and if there is we perdict that it
will be so slight that the customer
will have to be do considerable figur-
ing to ascertain what the percentage
has been.
The average cost of doing business
in Seattle, according to the very
best authorities, is 81 per cent,
while in San Juan county it is about
Is per cent. Add to this 81 per
cent the first cost of the goods, plus
the freight from Seattle here and
the interest on the amount invested
in stock in the corporation and
where does the man sending his
money away from home "get off" ?
Competition is so keen in nearly
all lines of business that merchants
must sell goods on very close mar
gin in order to hold trade and this is
what your home merchants are doing
They buy close and sell close, so why
not patronize them? Don't send
your money away from home:

 Manager Larkie said after the meet ing that he has already begun to sign players for the West End team and one of the surprises he had up his sleeve was a pitcher from California, who was said to be a wonder The other managers said that they also had their scouts out and the ground was being thoroughly looged over for the best talent.

FISH THE STRONGEST.
Football Captain Leads Harvard Stu
 dents in Tests of Strength,

Hamilton Fish, Jr., Of New York. is the strongest man at Harvard, accord ing to the strength tests made by Dr. Dudley A. Sargent for the first half of the college year; H. H. Bush is second 1; Paul Wilmington, third: Perry Smith, fourth. and F. H. Leslie, fifth. All but one were members of the Harvard foot ball team last fall. Fish, who heads the list. was captain of last years team and made an average in excess of 1900 points. He Is at present on a leave of absence until June, when he will re- ceive his degree. Bush, his nearest competitor, was his understudy last fall at tackle. Paul Wilmington, the third man, is with his brother, Lo- throp. the only two men in the univer- sity who have won their "H'' in two sports. Paul is also a crew man, the best swimmer at Harvard and cham pion amateur heavyweight wrestler of New England. The fact that four of
 Dr. Sargent recently stated that the the oarsmen do not get down to serious work until the second half of the year. tests were not made in competition. Every man exceeded 1900 points. The the first five men were football play CTS is accounted for by the fact that real strong man is often not the one that scores the most points. Lothrop A. Wilmington, who does not rank among the first five( has until now been conceded the position of Harvard's s strong man.
