Jumping Jack Tars.

The rhythmic jumping Of $50 blue
jackets saved II. NJ. s. Commonwealth
from the fate of the Montagu when
she ran aground In dangerous place.
The battleship Montagu was aban-
doned as hopeless wreck off the Cor
nish coast, but her sister ship, the
Commonwealth, was safely got off by
the muscular exertion of her crew.
The Commonwealth ran on to an
uncharted rock when returning from
target practice, and was badly dam
aged. She was so nicely balanced in
her lodgment. however, that it was
decided, after reversing the engines
had failed to extricate her, to try the
experiment Of mastering all the avail
able hands on the extreme aft, and
setting them to Jump In unison. The
regular jumping of twenty-five tons
of sohdly-built seamen had the effect
Of making the huge vessel rock see
saw fashion until she gradually foated
off with the rising tide. In fifteen
minutes she was afioat, and saved.

MADE A THING OF THE PAST
PhyelcaI Culture in Schools Has Done
Away With the old-time
Shoulder Braces.

Some things of common necessity
have been passing away without no.
tice of their leave taking, Not infre-
quently, a few years ago, at the break

In that yesterday every drug store

The reason for the passing of the

due to the fact that more attention Is
now paid to physical training In our
public schools than was the case a
few years ago, The girls are greatly
improved thereby. They walk better
and carry themselves better AS for
the boys, they are encouraged to en-
gage in athletic exercises which tend
to better them physically and carry
out the old Roman saying of "a sound
mind in a sound body"

The story came out = In police
court, when young laborer waa
charged with breaking a plate glass
window in the Salvation army shelter
in Whltechapel road, The accused
testified that after he pulled himself
out of tho river he had applied at
two police stations for permission TO
have his clothes dried, and was re-
ferred to the casual ward of hos
pital, but an official there would not
admit him because he had no order.

turned away from police station and a
