Tne daring naviyator was alin: st fam- ished, having had neither fvod nor week, His cooking stove had been washed overbuard, hi vessel's udder was zoue, aud for severa! days ve iad _uided ic vy an oar, In con- sequence he Was amo. worn out, and bis vody was ba tly brused by the many severe kuocks it had got from the end of the oar while keepiag the craft's head to the neavy -e .

He was a most pitiable sight, and C»ptain Sta well fears he will be com- pliely overcowe when he reaches tis destination, W.eu seen oy the crew of L’Oriflamme he was almost naked and his body was chilled through. Fresh provisions and water, together with plenty of warin clothing, were pnt on board the lice craft, and the | foolirdy mariner put off asain «ward Falinouth, his ultimate destinatioa, which was yet 1750 miles discant.

The Flying Dutchman made sail from Shelb.rne, N.S., June 19, bound for Fal- meout , England, and ever since its de- parture trom that piace had met with a succession of heavy gales and high seas. How the bout ever lived through ihe gales Captaiy Gard ner was at a loss wo know. In we height of the storms asea iro.e over the boat, filling lertothe gunwules, and washed him everboard. Le was lashed to the boat's combings, which was the only thing that saved hinn Clinging to the rope, Captain Gardiner succeeved in hauling himself intu the boat again after the storm had moderated, ‘Soon after this the rudder was brvken,and the boat was

| rendered helpless in the trough of the | sea. i

He rig,ed a rudder from one of his cars, and sueceeded in this way to hold the boat's head to the sea.

After hearing his story, Captain Stan- well use i eve: y persuasion to induce him to give up the trip and come on board. This he stoutly refused,steting that such voyages had been i.ccomplished before, and ue intended to ge: to Falmouth or die in the sttem;t. The officers and crew of the L’Oriflamme believe the Au- gust storms will bring his voyage to an

untimely enc.

The first sight of this strange looking

| craft on the horiz -n created quite a lot

of excitement on board the tanker, as it was at first thougit te be a bout con- taining the crew of some vessel that had foundered at sea. As it approached just before supper time the flag ‘*Union down” was noticed flying from the masthead, anda closer observation re- vealed the fact that the craft contained only one man, who was cramped up in the small coc«-pit. The wind was blow- ing a fresh breeze at the time, and the boat wax soon alongside the huge tanker. At that time Captain Gardiner had fall- enin with two other ships that had offered him temporary relief by supply- ing him with fres provisions, etc.

Gardner's sole purpose is to accom- plish the crossing of the Atlantic in a boat smaller than the Mermaid, in which Captain William Andrews crossed in June, 1891. Tie lateer started his trip much earlier in tue year, and pursued a more southerly course, meeting with liner weatihe:,

The Fiying Du'chman, as near as can be ascertained, is but a few inches short- er than the Mermaid. She is about fourteen feet long, twelve feet on the keel, and draws a: out one fopt of water with her skipper ou board. he is built cf half-inch white cedar over one-inch oak ribs, sharp at bo-h ends, and decked over fore and aft with a very small cock- pit. and has no rails whatever, The craft is flat bottomed and has a centre board. There are three thin wooden bulkheads, ou1e forwarl of the mast. Under the floor of the cock-pit is stored abvut 250 pounds of billast. The mast is eight feet above the deck, with a boom twelve and a half feet long, and a nine- foot gaff.

Old-tashioned Greetings,

Tn eastern iands, a man, meeting his friend of a morning, observes that **God is great,” a proposition whic.s, in that old-fashioned 8 wicty, no one is disposed to dispute. But amonz ourselves it is “It's a fine day,” or *Cuid this morning,” that comes most readily to the lips; yet few people concern themselves with epeculating why it is fine, or cold, or wet, or dry, or realize how immensely the daily interest of life is contri- buted to by observation of natural phenomena and acquaintance with their cause,

It was otherwise iu primitive times; all over the habitable g!obe men use to, gnd in some places :o still, invent elab- rate theories to account for fine weather and for foul; baffled in the endeavor to do so by natural causes. they imagine rain gods, sun gods, thunder gods, frost 1 ds, ——— them and propitiated them with costly or bloody sacrifices. But now that scrence has unravelied a zreat part of the my-tery the majority wf men are wholly inditferent to the cause of weather,

Lord Rosebery dwelt not long ago on the amazing cheapness of literature, and observed that one coull buy the whole of Pickwick for 44. It is a vast privi- lege, but sure!y it is still more remark- a le that for 2s. 6 . one can buy Scott’s Elementary Meterology, containing the solution of that proble n of the weather which hitherto v rough all the ages has been the most perple ting and engrossing of enigimas to mankind. “The wind bloweth where it lisiesh, knoweth whence it cometh aml whither it goeth '"—a saving most true in the ears of those Who Leurd 1, but now that we can gather knowledge from a single octavo volfime, enauling us to say exact- ly when the witit cometh and precisely whither it bloweth, no one seems to care much about the matter,—Nineteenth Ceutury.

Awkward Compliment,

There is such « thing as being too persistently complimentary. A candid and well-meaning professor. who had witn»-sed the performance of a little

lay ina private house, in which his Ces had taken the leading t, met the ludy asshe came from behind the curtain.

‘*Madame” he said, rushing up to her “you played excellently; the part fits you to perfection.”

“Oh, no, professor,” said the lady modestiy; “a young and pretty woman is needed for that part,”

*-But madame,” persisted the profes- sor,*you have itively proved the con- trary.” —Youth’s Companion.

PROGRESS,

Itis very important in this age of vast material progress that a remedy be pleas- ing te the taste and to the eye, easily taken, acceptable to the stomach and healthy in its nature and effects. Pos- sessing these qualities, Syrup of Figs ie the one perfect laxative and most gentle diuretic known.

INCESSANT TALKERS. They ore Everybody With Whew They Come in Contact.

To be a goud talker does not mean that vou must talk all the time.

art of conversatio.a lies quite as much ‘np |

knowing how to isten and to draw out by adroit questioning as to babble inces santly. all the time, but never say anyti:iog ifter all that is worth remeimberir:. Such characters are responsible largely for the supposition that omecan be ta!ked to death, and as sorry as we areto say so, the fuct remains that women ar- generally of that order, like the brook going on forever, and driving their |ist- eners mad with their incessant cacile that means nothing.

Everyone of us know such an iadivid- ual. She is generally plain of face and feature and would be a real good sou! if at some period of her existence slie had not been told that she was bright. Tv live up to this reputation she thinks ir necessary to gabble, gabble, telling you always in her coy way that her husbsi.d lovked tor brains not beauty when he chouse her,

Poor man—if ap count for anything he evidently wishes that jie had married a woman dumb in more senses than one,though he would never have the courage to air any convictions of that sort.

There isno conversation where such creatures abound. From beginning to erid it is a monologue of no possible in- terest to anyone but the owner of tie voice that goes on forever. Weare a selfish lotand frankly confess that it isn't a bit of fun to do all the listeni ¢ when we are just dying to get our our in and do a little showing off ourselves. —Pailadelphia Times.

Americans in European Society.

Americans fail to reahze that Euro- peans recognize no social or class dis- tinction in this country. Our pple know that this is a republic, that it Jas been a republic f+ more than a century and that the principal doctrine upou which the entire national fabric is founded is that of universal equality. They cannot, therefore, understand that there should be any kind of class distinc- tion or gradations of society. In their eyes all Americans are equal, and tie question as to what coterie or clique their American acquaiatances belong to in this country weighs but very litile with the grand monde in Europe. It is utterly immaterial to them whether their American acquaintance has ever had a grandfather or not, or if he had, who his grandfather was. They do not care one brass farthing whether he or she happens to be a ‘‘born millionaire.” or a ‘made millionaire,” and they take their American friends purely and en- tirely on their individual merits, ajto- gether irrespective of the social status and prestige they may enjoy on tais side of the Atlantic, :

But once an American has succeeded in getting himself accepted by the best European society his position is really a most delighttul one, since he is regarded as beyond the pale of class distinction and is allowed a freedom and a latitude which would never be accorded to any native, no matter how high Ixis or her rank, Notwithstanding all that is claim- ed to the contrary, there are relatively very few Americans who may really be said to have penetrated the inner circles of European society. — Vogue.

the Face That Attracts,

A clever Boston author, with whom Arlo Bates talked about the artists’ festival, to which all the world went in costume of the time of the renaissance, remarked that it was impossible to get over the habit of looking at the faces of the persons present and of neglecting to examine their costume unless with an effort to turn the attention.

“It is simply because we are so accus- tomed to finding the costume, and especially the costume of men, so unin- teresting that we never think of lookin at it,” one remarked, ‘Iam not sure,” the author returned, ‘‘that it doesn't gu a good deal deeper than that, and that there is not a profound psychological reason there. ‘the face is the tuning which expresses the mind, and the whole tendency of civilization is toward tne keener appreciation of the mental side of being.

**We have suppressed costume in man because we are more interested in his face, and we do uot care to be distract- ed from it, That is only one phase of the process of evolving the appreciation of the mental. We do not, as a matter of fact, care for clothes in this age—I mean asarace. There are of course ex- ceptions, and there is still personal ven as there always must be. It is possible to get up this sort of a show, not because anybody is greatly interest- ed in the costume of others, but because each is willing to admire himself and to allow others to admire him,”

Tho Soldiers’ Pace in Marching.

Colonel Hutton reminds us that the marching value of the army is that of its worst regiments rather than of its best, for we cannot afford to vut-march our worst regiments and thus deplete them of their men, The rate of march- ing laid down in the infantry dril', 1892 —that is, 120 paces of 30 inches per win- ute—gives a rate of 3 miles 720 yards

er hour or, including the five minutes’ |

nalt, 3 miles 220 vards per 55 minutes.

This pace is, in the opinion of this officer, | obviously too great for the movement of |

larger units of command than a batal- lion, or perhaps of a weak brigade with- out baggace train. It is universally ac- cepted Uy continental authorities that the rate for marching under campaigning conditions is 24 miles per hour, incwud- ing 5 to 10 minutes halt.

‘he French, who have the tradition of being the best marchers in Europe, lay down in precise form the rate of march

for their infantry at 248.100 miles per |

hour, including 10 minutes’ halt, giving, therefore, 2 45 100 miles in 50 minutes, or 87 5-100 yards per minute. The Alpine chasseurs—the pick of the French in- fantry, who take special pride in their marching powers—march at the rae of five kilometers, or 3 1-10 miles per hour, including 10 minutes’ halt, or 3 1-100 miles in 50 minutes,—London News,
