The Lesson She Learned.

A fair western coed and one of the male seniors fell violently in love and neglected their studies shamefully. Both were expelled The fair coed therupon wrote this interesting reply to the faculty:
 Gentlemen-You have expelled me faf neglecting my studies, yet have learned at your institution more than you will ever know. I have learned the meaning of love. What is the use of studying bot any if I am not allowed to gather roses2 Why should I devote myself to astron- omy If I may not look at the stars? What does it profit me to spend years on mathematics and neglect my own figure? You have expelled my fiance also. Do you think he is unhappy? We were mar ried last evening.

The Woman-Here's wonderful thing. I've just been reading of a man who reached the age of forty without learning how to read or write He met a woman, and for her sake he made scholar of himself in two years. The Man-That's nothing. I know a man who was a profound scholar at forty. Then he met a wo- man and for her sake made fool of himself in two days.-Cleveland Lead CT

with paralysis, which threatens her
life. Physicians were puzzled by
the case and we're unable to give re-
lief. They feared the girl would die
but yesterday she recovered the use
of her toes and today the numbness
left her fingers, although she is un-
able to move them. She is now
thought to have a chance Of recovery,
although she is not out of danger.
The fall from the flying Dutch

the little girl was frightened by a
barking dog. Her back struck the
corner Of a box. The child cried con-
stantly, complaining Of sharp pain
in the bruised spot. Gradually the
pain diminished, and only black and
blue spot remained to remind her of
the incident.
A week after the fall she was
stricken with paralysis, which ex-
tended the entire length Of her body,
and partially left her yesterday as
mysteriously as it came.

LIFELONG
AMBITION
REALIZED

Ottawa, Ont, Aug. 1.-Balked by
his life long ambition to make a
voyage to the north pole, Captain
Bernier, who sailed for the polar re-
gions from Quebec few days ago
on the government steamer Arctic,
under sealed orders, has evidently
been placated by a commission from
the Canadian government to essay
the northwest passage.
1t was Commander Robert Nc
Clure, of H. M. S. Investigator, who,
in 1854, sailing eastward from Beh-
ring Straits, reached the barrier at
Banks Island. There the crew aban-
doned the ship and, walking over
the ice to Berry Island, made the
Northwest passage after a fashion.
Bernier has hopes of being able to
work the steamer Arctic through
this ice blockade.
Whether or not, however, Bernier
succeeds in forcing the Northwest
passage, his intructions are to plant
the British flag and assert Canadian
sovereignty over Arctic lands that he
may visit in the course of his expe-
dition.

Souvenir of Colonial Boston.

New Englan9|visitors to the city Of
st. John, N. g., usually visit Trinity
church, a large and handsome struc-
ture of stone, within which they find
a relic which at once proves of much
historic interest to them. 1t is the
British coat of arms, elaborately
carved upon a single block of wood
about three feet square, and deco
rated in the proper colors and gild-
ing. 1t hangs over the central door
way, directly under a white marble
bust of Queen Victoria. The Amert-
can interest in the coat of frms CEN
ters in the fact that it was once a
decoration of the old State House
Boston, and was taken away by the
loyalists, who fled from the city
when the success of the American
cause was assured. These loyal ad-
herents of George III, who could not
endure the prospect of living in Il
free republic, were the real founders
of the city of st. John, although a
settlement had existed on the spot
since 1886. To the number of sew
eral thousands they sailed in many
ships from Boston and the neighbor-
ing ports in 1898, and the coat of
arms was one of the most cherished
treasures which they took with them.
1t was first taken to Halifax, and
then to st. John, where, since 1884,
it has occupied a place of honor IN
five successive church edifices.-

The Ford negroes ordered tho Jacksons
OF the place and yesterday whom the
