a minute: Maybe they were not QlIt6 wasted. You see, Mrs. Lyle was good to him in many ways. Her money helped him rise-he would have gone up anyway, but he got in his stride of doing good without waiting over long. The two of them have been a sort of special providence to so many, many young fOlks-and old. She would have been lavish; he held her to generosity. l never heard his love story, but he told me of all he owed your grandfather, and how he felt hOnor-bOund to pay as he had bidden. You never saw his name, and rarely hers among big givers-dOnors, I believe. is the word for them. But that Is more than offset by what know. I've been with him five years, remember. IT couldn't bear to look at him when he read your aunt's let. ter. No, his wife didn't suppress it out of jealousy; she was slow-witted, though. and thought it would hurt him to know the truth" ~ : .s'

SHIPS THAT EATEN SAILORS
Modern "Tank0rsn Are Now Blamed for Added Weight Taken On
 by the Seamen.

Shipping experts continue to. argue regarding the advantages of oil fuel over coal. At present the question is occupying the attention of medical men.
 The adverse effect of oil fuel upon such surfaces as steel, canvas. rope and other shipping accessories are widely known; ships doctors are now divided on the question as to whether 1t is harmful or beneficial in its effect upon sailors, a writer in London Tit Bits states.
 Sailors on Oil-fed vessels are fatter and bumper than those who work on cOal-fed ships. Some naval surgeons declare that the fattening effect Is pro- duced by the slight fumes exuded by the dormant oil fuel; others ridicule the suggestion, and maintain that the former are fat simply because they have less work to do.
 "Coaling ship" is one of the finest exercises In the world for reducing superfluous flesh. It Is hard work that has to be maintained at high speed all day. Ships vie with each other in get ting their coal aboard in record time and even after the operation Is finished the sailors still have a few more ounces of avoirdupOis to work off in cleaning up the mess below decks. Usually three days are occupied in cleaning a vessel after a bout of "coal ship" On the other hand, oil-fuel ships perform the task in about three hours.
 Doctors are asking themselves: "Ts the fat a healthy fat, or an injurious parasitic growth?" If a hammock is splashed with oil fuel, all the scrub bing and boiling in the world will not prevent hole from appearing in it md if it eats through dOuble-ply can vas, what will oil fuel accomplish in the case of human beings?
 Tanker" hands are noticing that after two or three voyages they begin To put on flesh.

FAMED FOR ITS MARASCHINO
DaImatian Town of sSbenico Really Has Little Right to Other
 Claims to HonorS,

Sebenico vainly boasts of being the Roman colony Sicum, where Cladlus Quartered his veterans, and So styles itself in public inscriptions and Latin documents. But Sicum stood farther south, near Salona, at a spot still marked by Roman remains.
 It Is to be feared that Sebenico had a sadly ignOble origin, says the Manchester Guardian. The name is said to be derived from a word that means the fort from whence bandits watched the sea for ships which they attacked and piundered. The little DalmAtian pirates lair remained quite unknown until selected in the early Middle ages by Croatian kings for their favOrite residence. Apart from pos session of a picturesque land-lOcked harbor, the only cathedral in the world built entirely of stone and metal, and the ancestral house of the Orsinl. Sc benicO has few claims to distinction. However. by some people Sebenico will always be held in high honor for being the place where they make maraschinO, an insidlOus liquor dis titled from small black cherries.

channad Eather.s Text.

eve will take as our text this morn ing" announced the absent-minded clergyman, consulting his memoran' dun, "the sixth and seventh verses of the 31st chapter of Proverbs"
 Never suspectingi that his vivac' AOus son and heir had found the mem Orandum in his study on the previous night and, knowing that his papa had composed a sermon celebrating the increased severity of dry law enforce. ment, and diabolIcally changed the chapter and verse numerals to indi- cate a very different text, the absent minded clergyman turned to the place and read aloud these words of Solo mon:
 "Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.
 "Let him drink and forget his past poverty. and remember his misery no more."-New York Sun.

Electrical Inertia

There is a curious experiment with an electric discharge conducted round a right-angled corner. The corner iS formed by bending sharply the con- ducting wire. 4 photographic plate incIosed in a hard.rubber holder Is placed under the wire in such a way that the discharge will descend to- ward it, then turn at right angle and pass horizontally above 1t.
 It is found that when a negative discharge passes down the wire to the angle the electrical particles keep straight on their way instead of turn ing, penetrating the rubber cover and affecting the inclOsed plate. But when the discharge is positive, no such ef- feet Is produced. The current ap- parentIy turns the right-angled corner without, so to speak, shooting off at the bend.

TREE USEFUL IN MANY WAYS
Practically Every Part of the carnau. ba IG Utilized fer Food or Other
 Purposes.

Probably no other tree in the world, unless it Is the bamboo, is useful in so many different ways as the carnauba, a species of palm that grows in north. eTn Brazil. Not only is the tree pretty, says MT. Harry A. Franck in "Working North from Patagonia" but it is use full from root to crown.
 Fibers and wax from the leaves were used to make the first photograph rec Ords and some of the first electric-light f1lamentS. The wax indeed is one of the important exports of Brazil. To get it the natives thrash the leaves until the wax falls from them in the shape Of 8 white powder. The pow der is later worked Hp into many forms, from seals to shoe polish. The natives make their candles of it.
 The f1bers of the leaves they weave into hats, mats and baskets. They also make brOoms of them, and they use the leaves to roof their. houses and to make palm-leaf fans.~s Useful f1bers also come from. the inRide of the trunk, the irOn-hard wood Of which they use to make many things. from musical instruments to water pipes. From the roots they make purGat;ve and kind of farina that is of inesA timable value to them in times of famine.
 The pulp of the fruit has an agree able taste; and from the seed, which Is of agreeable taste when roasted. comes a saccharinR substance thS! can either be used as food or turned into wine or vinegar. Finally they use the seed as birros; that is. the knobs to which the lace makers tie tha% aRda of their threads. The clickety-clIck of the btrros can be heard all over northern Brazil.

 Friendship Important.
 To build life that brings joy to old age you must build friendship into the days as they come. Antagonism may compel attention from the world. But soon the world will find a way of avoiding your coercing power, and you will be left despised and desolate tO spend JoGr declining years amidst hos tile environments.

The Wr0no Saint.

ChildhOod's propensity for getting names mixed was well illustrated a Sunday morning or two ago whcr little Richard, on the way to Sunday school with his mother and sister met another little boy afflicted wtI St. Vitus' dance.

 Poor child" the sympathetic moth CT replied. "'He has St. Vitus's dance

 "De bill O'-fare," said the old man, "aIn ham, eggs, cohn bread and coffee"
 "Then I'll have ham, eggs, corn bread and coffee, uncle," said Mir. Cobb.

snalIs in London Rsstaurants.

English officers who served In France during the war acquired in many cases a taste for frogs legs and snails, hitherto unknown to London menus. When they returned home they demanded the same tidbits in London and now both frogs legs and snails are conveyed daily from France to London by airplane. Some of the London restaurants are. doing an enor. nous business in serving these two articles of food.

Valley Liliea in Winter

It is no trick at all to have the fragrant dainty white bell of the lily of the valley in bloom in the window of the living room for the greater part of the winter, according to the national garden bureau service. If you have a patch of lilies of the val ley growing in your yard, dig up few pips this fall, selecting only the plump ones which contain flower buds, pot them up, say eight OF ten pips to an eight-inch pot. Let them remain outdoors until thoroughly frozen and then bring them fin as they are wanted. As soon as they thaw out the lilies will send up their bloom with surprising speed. A number of pots may be planted and left outdoors to be brought In from time to time.
 Canada Pushing Honey Industry.
 It is expected that Ontario's honey crop next season will be marketed largely on the cooperative system, as a result of the activities of the committee appointed recently by the Ontario Bee Keepers association, and with the assistance of the Ontario government. The honey will be graded and have a registered brand for the protection of consumers. Each pack age will have distinguishing number, by which 1t can be traced back to the producer.

Iceland Ponies.

Iceland ponies run well in company. Out of fifteen or twenty, one or two will soon be recognized as the leaders, and the rest will follow these; but no amount of whipping will persuade them to go even a short distance sep arately-a fact which the traveller soon finds to be very inconvenient if luis pony does not happen to be a lead. er and he Is yet anxious to deviate occasionally to examine objects of in- terest off the track. This inability to run except in company has gained the Icelandic ponies a character for stu pidity in this country, where they are seldom used except in the coal mines
