holland's Way.

In several places the rivers In Hol.
land make their entrances to the sea
over extensive sand-beds, the water
being so shallow that large vessels
cannot sail In 1t. Rather than remove
the sand.beds, which were looked upon
In olden times as n defense, since they
then kept men-of-war at q distance,
the Dutch adopt the plan OF sending
out two large flatbottomed craft to
the small trading vessels that wish
TO enter the harbor. Arrived on
either side the ship. three pontoons,
as they may be called are partially
sunk by admitting water, and when
their slopIng sides are well under the
hull of the ship to be carried. the
water Is pumped out, and they rise
buoynntly with their burdens between
them. Across the shadows they then
bear II In triumph, and lower 1t gently
into the deeper water Of the harbor.
With equal care the return journey
Is made when the merchantmen Is
ready to sail away.

TOLD BY THE FINGERS

The ambitious person has long .in-
gers.
The amiablc, easy-golng person mas
short fingers.
large fingers mean slow intekec-
iuality and common tastes.
Thumbs that curve downward show
shrewdness and miserllness.
II his fingers are fat, he's lazy. The
same applies to his fiancee.
Markedly pointed fingers Indicate re-
llglous fervor and Imagination.
Small, thin fingers bespeak clever,
acute mind, somewhat given TO de-
cet.
A coarse, brutal nature Is disclosed
by fingers as large at the tips as at
the roots.
Lean fingers indicate simple tastes,
perhaps leaning too much toward pc
nuriousness.
The strength Of your Will power Is
measured by the length Of the upper
joint Of the thumb.
Thumbs that are coarse, heavy, and
undeveloped belong to rude and igno-
rant persons.
II your fiance has square fingers
you may count on his being firm In
his opinions, reasonable, and quite an
orderly person.

POKER GAME DELAYED TRAIN
Group OF "Tlred Business Men" See
Blue Chips In Plenty, but No
Azure Skies.

The twin propellers keep up their
"poom, poom" while the tired business
men are pouring over the gangplank
for the homeward trip down the bay,
for the Sandy Hook flyers take pride
In sliding away from the pier at rail-
road speed. But that musical "poom,
p0om" Is MS stimulating to the tired
business men as the tom-tom Is to the
dusky dwellers of the Congo country,
for 1t calls them to mysterious rites OF
bridge, poker, hearts and what not
with which to beguile the trip to At
lantic Highlands.
So fascinating are those rites with
the clicking OF red, white and blue
chips, that the card players still lin
ger over their game after the speedy
Monmouth or the Sandy Hook has
tied up at the Atlantic Highlands pier,
and II Is with difficulty that they are
shooed ashore to board the trains
waiting to carry them to their summer
homes. And that makes problem for
the railroad men, for the starting OF
the trains Is delayed by the dawdling
Of the votares Of the Goddess Of
Chance.
Especially hypnotic is the "poom,
poom" Of the 5 30 boat which carries
crowded convention Of tired bust
ness men TO their homes in Monmouth
county. Their one thought seems to
be to exchange the excitement Of
stocks for the excitement Of cards,
and the boat becomes floating ca
sino. Blue water. flying clouds, ocean
traffic and sea breezes-all are dlsre-
garded, because the tired business
man insists on playing exactly as he
works.-New York Sun.

MAY BE OUT FOR REVENGE
French Fishermen Uneasy Over Pres
ence Of Mate Of Sailfish They
Had Captured.

A huge sailflsh, fish rarely met
with In the Atlantic, has been cap.
tured by fishermen Off Concarneau, In
France, and towed TO that port. The
fish measures eight meters long and
four meters in circumference and
weighs four tons.
The fishermen are greatly disturbed
over the presence in the vicinity OF
the fishs female companion, who fol.
lowed her captured lord throughout
the whole of the night he was be-
Ing towed to port.
