PHOTOGRAPHY AT SEA.

Not the least attractive feature OF
the modern ocean liner is the COM
pletely equipped dark room placed
at the disposal Of passengers. One
or more cabins are set aside for the
purpose. The dark room is supplied
with metal tanks, running water,
racks, trays and all possible equip
ment, together with electric ruby
lamps which may be switched on or
off. AS a rule, this room will per-
NIT several people to work together,
if they desire. An experienced pho
tographer is placed in charge, who
will coach amateur photographers If
desired. A complete stock of pho
tographic supplies is, of course, car
ried aboard. 1t is a common sight
to see a tourist who has taken a snap
shot on deck, for instance, appear
a few hours later and display the fin
ished mounted photograph.

ROOM CAREFULLY SEALED.

An eerie tradition is recalled by
the death a few days ago of Squire"
Thomas Green of the Old Hall. Poul-
ton-Lancelyn, Cheshire, England
whose family have been in possession
of the estate since a period prior to
the Norman conquest. There is in
Poulton Old Hall a mysterious
locked room which has never been
opened except by representative Of
the Green family. The hall and its
lands have sometimes been let, but
the Green family have always re-
tanned possession Of this mysterious
room, which is supposed to contain
several relics and other family treas
ures. The last tenant would have
given an increased rent for It If he
could have had access to this room
or could have cleared away the mys-
terious contents, but the owners re-
fused to give up possession, and SO
the tenant left.

DUTY OF HAPPINESS.

There is no duty we SO much un-
derrate as the duty of being happy.
By being happy, we sow anonymous
benefits upon the world, which re-
main unknown even to ourselves, or
when they are disclosed, surprise no
body so much as the benefactor. A
happy man or woman is a better
thing to find than flve-pound note.
He or she is a radiating focus Of
good will; and their entrance into
a room is as though another candle
had been lighted. We need not care
khether they could prove the forty
seventh proposition they do better
thing than that, they practically
demonstrate the great theorem Of
the liveableness of life.-Robert

RAvAeEs OF FOREST FIRES

~ Of Wocdsmen..

With a total estimated forest fire
loss for the entire country last year
ranging from $4,000, 900 to $780,
100000, and causing the death Of
several hundred persons, uneasy in
deed must rest the knowledge upon
any woodsman, experienced or ANA
teur, that he caused a fire which
may Bse contributed in this lpss Of
life and property, says Guy Elliott
Mitchell in the Review Of Reviews.
On the other hand, the man who en-
tinguished an incipient fire may take
Just pride in the act.
The way TO prevent big fires, az
Chief Forester Graves says, is to put
them out while they are small. II
people are careful not to start fires,
or II in case fires do start there are
enough people available to fight
them, they win gain no hesdwsy.
The forest service in its posted mo-
tice lays down a few simple rules
to keep in mind when in the woods
and particularly requests in case Of
fire that the forest guards be noti-
fed. If the fire has not gained too
large Roadway it may be very pos
sible to check and extinguish it, al
ways remembering that fire runs
rapidly up a slope, burns slowly on
the crest and travels down hill yet
more slowly. Many an incipient
fire has been put out by a single
guard or ranger, or an experienced
camper, using his blanket or green
branch for beating the fire or throw
ing on loose earth or sand.

is BEST OF BURGLAR ALARMS
Man Refused to Sign Lease Until He
Learned Neighbor Was Taking
Fresh Air Cure.

Every reader has his own idea of
what constitutes a desirable neighbor-

tenant hung back from signing a lease
for six hours the other day because
could not tell him whether anybody
in the block was taking the fresh-air
cure He was so insistent that final
ly made inquiry and learned from the
janitor at No. 225 that a man on the
third floor of his building sleeps every
night with his head stuck out Of the
window and then the tenant signed
the lease.
His precaution was due to fear of
burglars. He has learned, he says,
that the best burglar alarm ever in
vented is the fresh-air cure. Not even
the doctors who advise 1t know so
we'll as the second-story men how
many people sleep with their heads
out OF the window. They know be-
cause the habit interferes with their
business. Whole blocks that used to
be profitable hunting grounds for
burglars are now so much waste space
because two or three persons In the
block go to bed with the upper half
of the body protruding beyond the
window sill. Outdoor sleepers may
sleep comfortably, but they sleep
lightly. The second-story man can
not make a noise half a block away
without waking them and giving the
