SUGGESTS TUBE TO SHORE
Engineer Lackey Thinks This More
Feasible Than Bridge.

Plans for enlarging and otherwise

with Carrere & Hastings and Smith
& Harrison, of New York, the city 5

York. but is still connected with the
fQuartermasters' Department of the
army in civilian capacity, having
recently been transferred to the Blu

Mr. Lackey said that he was very

Bay bridge project. Whether the
Government would approve of a
bridge, unless sufficiently high to per

connecting the Eastern and Western
Shores, he suggested tubes for We

stated, could readily be constructed,
because there is little rock to be en-

Strong in her love, though always
somewhat frail;
She leaves on earth a saddened fami-
ly circle
She waits for them beyond life's
shadowy vale.

Matter of Gender.

The bell of a Scottish church was
giving out a very poor tone. and a
committee was appointed to inquire
as to what was wrong and to report
on the best means of putting It
right After an examination the men,
hers were divided In their opinion, and
the kirk officer, who was in attendance
with the keys, was asked his view.
Fine. A ken what's wrang WI the
bell" he remarked. ITS a shee-yln"-
meaning that 1t was of the feminine
gender. Pressed to explain, he added:
ITS tongues owre lang-lt's needln'
to be clippitP' And this turned out to
be really the fault. The tongue. had
become loosened to the extent of an
inch or so, and was overlapping the
curve at the rim, and therefore not
striking truly.

ter--anyIhing. de walked up Tie
stairs and tapped at the door Of the
private Office.
AS nobody answered he walked in.
He heard hum Of voices suddenly cut
short; he was conscious of q stir and
hustle, and then ne looked up in amaze
ment, to see that things were just as
they had been years before. All the
old staff were In their places. There
was old Jones the superintendent, and
the supervisor, Simpson, with little
Cosgrove, and Brown, and Backman,
And at the window, just where he used
to sit, was his own desk, vacant.
There was a hush of surprise, and
then in a moment everybody was on
their feet and running toward him. Old
Jones was wringlng his hands hard
and shouting:
'It's Peter. It's Peter come back to
us!"
Peter stared In bewilderment at the
welcoming faces, the outstretched
hands. Simpson snatched up a sheet
of notepaper and held it In front of
him. "That's how much we think of
you, he shouted. And Peter read:
IF Peter Lessard, formerly of 10
Scott street, will communicate with the
place of his former employment, he
may learn of something to his advan-
tage."
AS Peter laid 1t down Jones grasped
him by the arms. "Don't say you're
going to stay with your present job"
he yelled. Rabbit is willing to pay
you anything. He wants you, and he
says we've got to get you, no matter
at what price, because there may be
men with your brains, but there isn't
one with your brains and honesty. For
the Lords sake, Peter, open your
mouth and speak. How about it?"
mo, 1 haven't got job" muttered
Peter.
"Then you're coming back to us?
You can start in todayP
"Do you mean to say the old shop
has opened?" inquired Peter.
"You didn't known Then what
brought you in here2 Mr. Rabbits
got the whole gang together again.
He has all the backing he needs, and
he's going to have that process just
as fast as you can pick it out of the
books. It's a three years contract
for all of us, Peter. We tried to get
you, but you had moved, and, as you
know, it wasn't matter we could
make free inquiries about, with all
those wolves on the scent. What
brought you here, if you didn't know.
Peter"
Il guess 1 did know, in a sort of
way" said Peter. And he realized that
he had known, as Clarice had known.
For every dream comes true for man,
sooner or later, when woman wishes
1t hard enough.

Education Not a Prerequisite.

Charles Darwin was a misflt child,
misft youth, and misfit in young
manhood. He failed miserably in math-
ematics, the classics, and in theology.
He was an Indifferent student Of medl-
cine, yet when at last he was guided
into the paths of his natural capaci-
ties he soon became the foremost nat
uralist of his age and probably Of any
age before or since.
Emerson was an educational misfit,
and so were Froebel and General
Grant, and the list of distinguished
men in all walks of life who were mis-
fits in childhood might easily be ex-
tended almost indefinitely. They prove
cOnciusively that much of what is COM
monty called education is not prere-
quisite for success in life.
