Boy Scouts Like Knights of Old.
When good King Arthur ruled, boys
were trained for knighthood, says
writer in the Christian Herald. This
began when they were seven or eight
years of age. Their first course was
when they gave seven or eight years
of constant attendance and waiting
upon master and mistress They
were taught religion and morals and
love by the chaplain, They were
taught to walk as soldiers, and to ride
as brave hunters. They were accus-
toned to military exercises and ath-
letic sports. They voluntarily suf-
fered heat and cold, hunger and thirst,
fatigue and sleeplessness in order that
they might become hardened. When
between fifteen and sixteen years Of
age the pages" became ''squires," and
in the ordinary course Of chivalrous
education "knighthood" was reached
in early manhood. There is much In
the Boy Scout movement of today that
reminds us Of the training for knight
hood. The solemn promise made by
Boy Scout at his initiation is Il will
be a friend to every living creature,
man or beast, and brother to every
other scout, fortunate or unfortunate,
rich or poor. will be courteous
to ALL"

Early sport on the Thames.

Sport on the Thames in London's early days was more exciting than boat racing. In the twelfth century, for instance, the young ''bloods" en- toyed kind of ''tilt the bucket pas time and delighted the spectators. Thus William F1tz-Stephens, clerk to Thomas Beckett, on the rules of the game: "In the Easter holidays they play at a game resembling a naval engagement. A target is fixed to a tree trunk. which is fixed in the middle of the river, and in the prov of a boat driven along by oars a young man who is in it strikes the target with his lance If in hitting it he breaks his lance and keeps his position un- moved he gains his point and attains his desire. but If . his lance be not shriven he is tumbIed into the river" It is comforting to learn. however. that the rules then allowed his friends to pick him up.-London Spectator.

Curious Marine Tragedy.

A boarding party put off to the wreck, and some of the crew climbed up on the rounded bottom. Suddenly rappings were heard on the inside. Evidently some one was inn prisoned in the hold. Saws and axes were brought, and a hole was cut in the sch0oner's bottom But the at tempt at rescue brought swift d1sas- ter. The imprisoned air that had sus- tained the captives rushed out, and the schooner began to sink rapidly. AS the water rose on the inside one of the doomed sailors struggled near enough to the hole to cry out that they were five in all, one forward and four aft The capsized vessel was the Russell, and they had been prisoners for five days. Then the water reach ed his lips. and the would be rescuers scrambled into their yawl as the Rus sell sank. carrying the five men down with her,
