LIFE ON A %scHooLsHlP.
Queer, But jolly %schooldays of the
Present King of England.
From ST. Nicholas.

~ .Nh-iiSids.
George v. who was last month
crowned king of England in the grand
old abbey OF Westminster, had rather
strange schoo.days. From the time he
was IL years old his school was a ship.
and many of his teachers We're naval
officers. Sometimes his schoolroom
rolled So much that it was impossible
to read or write, to sit or stand COM
%fortlbly, n this was very trying to
the temper But whether the weather
was windy or rainy. calm or rough.
'school" went on like clockwork." and
the prince soon earned to adapt HIM
self to changes.
Their first ship schoo. was the old
man of war Britannia. lying in harbor
at the little Devonshire seaport OF
Dartmouth. There the princes lived
exactly like the other naval cadets"
as the boys training for officers are
celled. They learned to handle ropes.
shifts sails. n use carpenters tools
They harmed their own socks and
mended their own clothes. 1t they got
into a quarrel (Which. l fancy. was not
very often), they were left to fight il
out themselves. In cricket and othe,
sports they learned to play the game.
worked hard enough to find a real yes.
in holidays, and lived SO plainly that
when they went on shore they otter
spent some OF their pocket money,
like the other boys. ON tarts and cakes.
I'm 1879. after two years on the stay
at-home old Britannia. they were pro.
noted to the cruiser B%acchante. and for
the next three years hard work and
some "roughing it" was swcetened by
plenty of fun and change. Their two
long voyages in the Bacchcnte, taken
together, made a journey of over $4,000
miles, during which they landed i'm
many different countries and saw many
strange sights.

acter than the Sphinx, but the
4 I aim OF the Old Time Post was
49, Espionage and Taxation-the
Service of the Old Time King. The
Modern Post Office is our Mutual
Express Company; it's business is to
save the citizen from exploitation by
the Modern Railway King.
nr lnaugurated by Rowland Hill, of
FEngland, in the Establishment of the
Uniform English Penny Letter Post
of 1889, the Modern Post Office rests
upon this fundamental law: THAT
IN public transportation the cost of
the service rendered is regardless
the distance traversed by any unit
OF traffic upon the moving machin-
cry" This law not only governs the
postal world today; it is so general
ly applied in the railway world-it is
IN common use in city trolley traffic
and in through carload freight traffic
that it's application to the entire
!. business Of public transportation I'M
der the Post Office would be little
more than the establishment of a..
widespread railway custom as a COM
mon law under the law making
power.
The modern American city owes it's
growth and prosperity to it's uniform
cent fare. To the postage stamp
stem of rates in through carload
ight traffic, more than to anything
say our great railway authori-
is due our national prosperity.
pm it's continuance, says Mr.. Tut
LOT Droac 0f o
1Taine Railroad, depends the exis-
tence of New England's industries,
and it not only keeps old industries
going, said the Railroad President;
it creates new industries, and in ev-
ldence of this truth, he points to the
fourishing paper mill town of Mil
linocket, Maine, that came into being
only after it's projectors had been as
Sured that their products should be
carried to Chicago and other great
markets on the terms allowed towns
close to those markets.
AS to the possibilities in this d.
rection, please note that even with
the present Wasteful management of
our great post-roads, waste that may
be reasonably estimated at well nigh
a billion dollars a year-the average
station to station railway rate is less
than $1.08 a ton, but a trif1e over
10 cents a 20O-pound parcel, for the
average haul of al miles; and about
63 cents for the average 33-miIe trip
of a passenger.
