How London Crew..

Britain's great empire has grown
Just as the great city of London grew.
sYou ride on a bus from Hampstead
to the Strand, and you pass at least
four High streets, each nee the main
thOroughfare of a former village"
says Samuel p. Orth in the Imperial
Impulse. London is only a fortuitous
collection of villages. 1t was never
planned, it could not be planned. 1t
has no community of interest save
trade. 1t was never governed as a
municipality.
'For years each parish had it's own
government; today it is governed by
a county council. 1t is an anonymous
aggregation Of novels, shops and pal
aces, with no limits or plan to its
spreading.
Like a terrible Brobdingnagian
ameba, it pushes it's ~tentacles hither
and thither, prompted only by the in
sstinct for food"

STEVENSON IN HIS YOUTH.
And a Satiricai Forecast That Became
a Reality.

And a Satiricai Forecast That Became
a Reality.
/ do o think that in these early
days Stevenson appeared to any of us
as specifically a genius, an exceptional
man set apart for great accomplish
ments. Indeed, had we been solemnly
assured hat he would share the honor,
with only II or two possible competi-
tors, of being the foremost English
writer of the latter half Of the nine
teenth century we would certainly
have received the assurance with a
smile. What! Louis! So simple,
kindly, natural; so all round a good
fellow so like all the rest of us, only
nicer!
And / am quite sure that in his in
most heart at this period he could
never really have looked forward to or
expected the fame which later came to
him and which grows and expands as
time gives Is the perspective where
with to view it In all its roundness and
bigness and essential simplicity. In
AOSt, mil ONuSAu6 hAAAcClA I uuC AC
remarked simply that he was "a writer
chap" or hoped to be one.
l was told of a rainy afternoon
plague party" at which / did not
chance to be present, during which
Bob Stevenson amused himself by fore
casting the future careers Of those
present. When he came to his cousin
he remarked with a satirical little
smile: '"There sits Louis, as SINUS and
cOmplacent as any old type de bour-
geois. l have not the least doubt that
he fondly imagines that one of these
days they will be publishing all Of his
dinky private correspondence-'the let
tiers Of r. l.. Sin boards"
And Louis Joined as heartily as any
one in the laugh which the sally rails
ed. Bob, at least, did live to see the
publication Of the 'Vailima Letters"
and l have often wondered il he re-
membered this little incident as he
thumbed their leaves.-Birge Harrison

Squid Ink Baq.

Ancient ink was made by a squeez-
ing out of dead cuttlefsh after the
body was perfectly relaxed. Painters
got their sepia from this same squid's
bottle. This likewise is the true source
of the genuine and original india ink.
for which there has never been any
satisfactory substitute found.
The ink bag OF the cuttleish is as big
as a mans thumb and can squirt six
feet, darkening more than a hogshead
OF water, SO the squid can make un-
seen a dart and dash and get away
when squid eating sea fish come round.

OUR ECONOMIC HOUSE.
Il May Re Rebuilt, as . Railway Sta
ton Is. While In Use,

=
ton Is, While In Use.
Sometimes, when | think of the
growth of our economic system, 1t
seems to me as X, leaving our law just
about where 1t was before any of the
modern inventions or developments
took place, we had simply at haphaz-
ard extended the family residence, add
ed an office here and q w0rkrOom there
and q new set OF sleeping rooms there,
built up higher on U foundations AMI
put u little lean-tos on the side until
we had q structure that had no char
acter whatever. Now the problem is
to live In the house and vet change it.
Well, we are architects in our time.
and our architects are also engineers.
We don't have to stop using q railroad
terminal because a new station is be-
ing built. We don't have to stop any
of the processes Of our lives because
we are rearranging the structures in
which we conduct those processes.
What we have to undertake is to sys-
tematize the foundations of the house,
then to thread all the old parts of the
structure with the steel which will be
laced together in modern fashion, ac-
commodated to all the modern knowl-
edge of structural strength and elias
ITCHY, and then slowly change the par
titiOns, relay the walls, let in the light
through new apertures, improve the
ventilation, until finally, a generation
or two from now, the %scaffolding will
be taken away and there will be the
family in a great building whose noble
architecture will at last be disclosed.
where men can live as a single COM
munity. cooperative as in a perfected.
co-ordinated beehive, not afraid of any
storm of nature, not afraid of any arti-
fetal storm, any imitation Of thunder

dations go down to the bedrock of

they please they can change that plan
again and accommodate it as they

Where He Would BE Useful.

After many efforts the aspiring
singer had managed to get permission
to give a trial performance at the local
music hall. The house was full, and
he warbled in his sweetest tones.
Everything seemed roseate until sud-
denly a hoarse voice came from the
side of the stage.
sHere, you come off ~. ordered the
stage manager. "Can't you see you're
semptying the house?"
EFT don't seem to be a success,
then?" said the amateur, timorously.
Success! HUH" snorted the man
ager, angrily. AT clearing them out
you're the most successful chap / ever
met. Now, for goodness sake, go and
sing outside and drive EN- in again y

CHAMPION TREE FELLERs.
Beavers Are More Expert Than the
Best lumberiacks.

The most expert lumberjack is in
ferior to the beaver as a tree Teller.
He cuts down trees in the most scien-
tiic way. He can fell a tree so it will
fall toward the pond where he wishes
to construct his home, thus saving
himself unnecessary work.
After the trees are felled the con-
struction work begins. He works
chiefly by night, for he is a nocturnal
prowler. The moor is his lantern, the
quiet of the night his inspiration, his
sharp teeth are his Ratchet and chisel,
and his little paws are his means of
conveyance, his spade, his hammer
and his trOwel. His hard, fiat hairless
and scaly tail is a propeller when
swimming and a balance when he is
cutting timber, for he stands on his
hind legs while gnawing down trees.
The beaver is a strict vegetarian,
and his diet consists chiefly of banks,
tender shoots and water plants.
To food low grounds the beavers
sometimes have to build a dam ex-
ceeding fifty feet in length. They
usually lay it out with the curve fac
ing upstream. The foundation is built
of poles four or five feet long by an
inch OF two thick. These they lay
crosswise, filling all crevices with mud.
The beaver digs up mud with his
fore feet, then holds it close to his
breast with his fore legs, swims to
where he has started his dam, and
having deposited it in its proper place
beats the mud down with his paws
not with his tail. as has been believed.

Henley and Stexsnson.

w. E. Henley once met Robert Louis
Stevenson and found his friend dis
tressed because he was not a Voltaire

ment which ought to have made him

down to the weakness Of his lungs.

Watching Sponaes Grow.

Outside the harbor Of Sfax, Tunisia.
in the shallow warer Of the clear Medi-
%terranean, is situated a biological lab
oratory for the study Of sponges. 1t
is one of the most unique in the world
and affords opportunity for observing
the development OF the sponge from a
tiny larva. 50 small that 1t car only be
studied under a microscope, until five
years later it has developed into q per-
feet sponge.

IT WAS HIS OWN FIGHT.
So PIucky Enver Pasha Wanted the
SCRAP All to Himself.

----- IS
So PIucky Enver Pasha Wanted the
Scrap All to Himself.
| have known Enver Pasha for some
years now. said a British vice consul
to a traveller who writes to an ex-
change. The beginning Of our friend
ships dates from the Young Turk
luton of zoos. On the morning that
the revolution broke out in CONSTANT.
nOple | went to the bazaars with q
guard OF marines to see that the shops
OF British subjects were not attacked.
/ found the Hindus unmolested. but
the shops Of the Armenians, Jews
Syrians and Greeks were being ruth
lessly plundercd. and l observed men
dead OF wounded lying on the pave
ment or across the doors Of shops they
had tried to defend. The climax was
reached when a hulking trooper cam
staggering out owe the body of a MUIR
dered Armenian rug merchant, carry
ing a sack OF loot in one hand and with
the other dragging by the hair a half
%senseless girl OF fourteen or fifteen.

and yelling. reeled after him.
| had been ordered to refrain from
interfering. except to protect British
subjects. and ! was still hesitating
when an Ottoman cavalry officer gal
loped. up. leaped from his horse and
flung himself upon the soldier. A
vicious saber cut. shearing through the
turban and scalp. sent the hulking
wretch to the pavement. Instantly the
youthful Galahad stopped to raise the
fainting girl. and it was only by a cat
like spring that he was able to oppose
any guard to a descending saber that
n of the other hooters aimed at the
exposed back of his neck.
A moment later he had backed into
an angle of the wall and was calmly
meeting the furious but i'll directed at
tack of the ruffians.
l wish the fight could have gone on
to a finish. for so coolly and adroitly
did the young officer stand his ground
that ! am confident he would have out.
matched his clumsy assailants. But
my jackies got out Of hand and start
ed in to equaliZe a contest that out
ragged their sense of craftsmanship.
The BazOukies scattered at the sight
of the ominously leveled bayonets, but
it was a very angry Turkish officer
who strobe up to the big sergeant of
marines and in voluble French de-
manded to know what he meant by
mixing up in another mans fight.
Il am X. of the British embassy" l
interposed in hating Turkish. 1.-THE
marines thought you were in danger
and with the best of intentions tried to
create a diversion in your favor"
II am Enver, captain in the Young
Turk army" he replied stiffiy in pre-
else English. ''In the circumstances
your apology is accepted. AS you and
these men appear to have wandered
away from that portion Of the city
where protection has been provided
for foreigners, may l not requite your
kindness by conducting all of you safe
~ back to the British embassy
And, in spite Of my protests to the
contrary, come he did. But he unbent
on the way, and our meeting Of that
morning was the beginning of a warm
friendship.
