There are thirteen islands in all,
nine Of which are connected at low
tide by a treacherous beach. which
it is possible to drive over with the
guidance of one who knows the
quicksands and tides. Fifty-three
miles from north to south makes an
island of respectable size. Then,
farther north, lies Byron island, a
summer fishing station leased and
peopled by a merchant on the main
islands, but almost deserted in win
ter. Ten miles still farther is the
famous Bird rock, we'll known by
reputation to naturalists. watched
over only by millions of birds and
the lighthouse keeper and his wife,
with two assistants. On this six
acres of rock, perched 1875 feet
above the water, approached only

The Pill and the COATING.

Joseph Savador, the French his
torian, and Jules Sandeau, a novel,
list, made their meeting at public
reception the occasion for dispute
as to the respective places which
they occupied in the world of let
ters.
"lhe reading of history is like a
pill-it needs the sugar coating to
make it palatable," argued the nov
elist.
"Ah, but it is the ingredient
which cures, not the coating" re-
marked the historian.
'"Then let us divide honors," said
Sandeau, 'for if it were not for my
sugar coating your historical facts
would dry on the shelves"

MAGDALEM ISLANDS.
Five Months Year They Arc Isolated
by Wild, Raging Seas.

Out in the center Of the gulf of
st. Lawrence, where the ocean
waves dash over them for five
months of the year so fercely as to
close all communication with the
mainland except by cable, lie the
Magdalen islands. Nine out of ev-
cry ten Canadians have never even
heard of them, and the other one
remembers dimly that he encoun-
tered the name at school in the list
of the Canadian islands. Nine out
of ten of the islanders themselves
have never been farther from their
birthplace than the trips to the fish
ing grounds, and the tenth has
gone no farther than Pictou or on
a long to be remembered trip as far
as Halifax or Quebec.
Seventy miles to the southwest
lies Prince Edward Island. Cape
Breton is the same distance south
east. Newfoundland's rough coast
faces them hundred miles east.
From away to the north the wild
waves crash down unopposed from
the forbidding shores of Labrador,
800 miles distant.
During but five months in tho
year, and then only twice week,
is there any opportunity for the
islander to see the outside world.
For the remainder the sea runs
with consistent wildness known
only to this region, and the hun
dred miles or more of coast line
show the wrecks that have marked
with failure the puny attempts of
man to combat tho oloments.
In the midst of all this fierceness
OF nature live 1000 French Acadi-
ans and 1000 English in q quaint
ness and quietness Of life that are
truly remarkable. And year by
year the population increases until
even now the land is overcrowded

PHOTOGRAPHIC PLATES.
The Way the Glass Sheets Are Clean
ed Coated and Sensitizsd.


First Of all the snail sheet of
glass destined to form the support
for the sensitized film is carefully
cleaned, SO as to be ready to re-
ceive the preliminary coating upon
which the sensitive film will after
ward be placed The sheets Of
glass are passed through machine
which first scrubs one side Of the
plate and then the other y
stream Of clean water flows over the
surface OF the glass all the time.
The work is all done automatic
ally, and after all the plates are
well scrubbed they travel under fine
Jets OF water, which squirt away ey-
cry trace Of dirt. The plates then
travel still further through the ma
chine in order to receive the prclim-
mary coating or "substratum," q
special liquid flowing over the sur
face Of the plates
in This manner the glass passes
in at enc side Of the machine, COM
ING out at the other side cleaned
and coated with an adhesive. The
plates 50 treated are placed in
racks and conveyed to Il driving
room. OF course all these prclimi-
nary operations take place in the
day lielt
The rczt operations, howcvcr,
are carried on in almost complete
darknce2, rs otherwise the light
would spoil the sensitive film which
is now placed on the glass. The
technical name of the coating
which is now applied is the "cmul-
sion," which is a preparation of sil,
yer salts, extremely sensitive to ac-
ton Of light.
The body of the emulsion is
formed Of kind of gelatin. This
is kept liquid by the application Of
heat. The plates are carried on an
endless band, and as they pass
along an even film of the emulsion
flows on to them. In the latter por-
ton of their journey along the end
less band they pass under a refrig-
orator, which cools the warm film
and so causes the emulsion to set.
BY the aid of ingenious machin-
cry the plates are separated during
the journey. Finally they are taken
to another set Of drying rooms, the
finished product being white sub
stance coated upon a plate of glass.
OF course the plates made use of
by photographers are of different
sizes. Hence the glass sheet passes
through another machine, in which
guides are so fixed that the glass
passes over a diamond point, This
scratches each sheet so that it can
be broken into the exact size Of the
"dry plates" which are sold in the
Photographic shops.-London An

Microbes and Man.

As a man grows older and learns
things he is inclined to wonder how
he escaped all the microbes he en-
countered in the days of his youth.
But even if that consciousness
makes him skeptical the scientists
probably are right. The point is
that a man or boy in good phys
zeal condition, with plenty of fresh
air and exercise, can whip brigade
of microbes without much trouble,
1t is only when he allows himself to
run down that he becomes easy
picking for the germs.

Chinese Nomads.

In the plains on the western bor-
ders of the Chinese empire, in the
heart of Asia, there live roaming
tribes who seldom visit towns ex-
cept for trade. They dwell in tents
made of felt and usually low, small
and conical. The wooden door
frame is no higher than half win
dow frame in English houses, but
tho tent, although not equal to the
waits of large family, is snug and
comfortable in summer, but cold in
winter.-London Graphic.

Two Expensive Banauets.

The costliest meal ever served,
according to history, was a supper
given by Aelius Verus, one of the
most lavish of all the Romans OF
the latter days, to a dozen guests.
The cost was 5000 sestertia, which
would amount to $242,500. A cele-
brated feast given by Vitellius, a
Roman emperor Of those days, to
his brother Lucius cost a little more
than 100000. Suetonius says chat
the banquet consisted of 1900 diff
ferent dishes Of fish and 1000 diff
terent fowls, besides other courses.

 The signal in the fire department failed to register the alarm, and after the whistle had been blowing for some time a man ran into the fire department to tell them an alarm had been sent in.
 The department hearing the tail end of the signal started down. or in a easterly direction from the fire house, but before they had proceeded far they got the right number of the box and turned around and started westward on the gallop to the Staples block where the blaze had been extinguished and their services not needed, upon their arrival.
