THE DAILY EXAMINER, CHARLOTTETOWN, JANUARY 28, 1899,

’ “The Clotater and the liearth.” The pains Charles Reade took with

this book, called first ‘‘A (ood Fight’ and afterward ‘The Cloister and the earth, '’ were almost super suman. His letters at this time are full of it. ‘‘I am ender weigh again,’’ he writes, ‘‘but rather slowly. I thiuk this story will a’most wear my mind out.’’ Again, ‘‘I can’t tell whether it will sucoeed or not as a whole, but there shal) be great and tremendous and tender things in it.”’ i¢ is interesting to trace through these fetters the gradual evolution of charac- ters and scenes that have charmed mil- lions of people since. In one of them he says: ‘‘Gerard is just now getting to France after many adventures ia Ger- many. The new character I have added ——Denys, a Burgundian soldier, a cross- bow man—will, I hope an: trast, please you.”’

Never was hope better founded. Since those words were written many and many a reader has lived over again the sayings and doings of this adventurer, with his everlasting ‘‘Cov rage, le diable est mort.”’ Denys’ ‘‘foibie,’’ as we are told, was wonsn. “When he met a peasant gir! on the road, be took off his cap to her as if she was » queen, the in- variable effect of which was that she guddenly drew berself up quite stiff like a soldier on parade and wore a forbid- ding aspect.'’—London Academy.

A Trick That Won.

**Onoe, when ‘Long Joon’ Wentworth was mayor of Chicago,’ says The Jour- nalof that city, ‘‘a hot campaign was in progress. The rougi element was showing signs of Jobn’ knew that the police force was totally unable to cope with it if there ahould be a riot. There wasn’t much of any police force in those days. The few

officers that there were didn’t havo any |

uniform outside of a plug bat. On the front of this was a semicircie of tin, with the man’s number on it.

‘*There was no money to pay for ad-

turbulence, and ‘Long |

day the different mem ders of the force wexe stationed conspicuously where the trouble was most likely to break out. Tke roughs saw the numbers, °250,’ 290,’ ‘350,’ etc.. where they had be- fore seen only ‘25,’ ‘29' and ‘85.’ The word went around that ‘Long John’ had

acided several hundre:| men to the po- lice force, and the tor zh crowd were so intimidated that they uever dared to do @ thing.”’

Spanish-American Words. Many English word: ure ta ly from the Spanish. When you speak of a Piccadilly collar, you are not using slang.en.The ‘‘piccacallo’’ is a collar which at one time was worn by all men of position in Spain.

A few years since many American cities boasted of companies of volunteer soldiers called grena:iers.

The first grenadiers were in Grenaia. Onur marines, of whom we are specially proud just now, got their name by clip- ping the last syllable off ‘*marineros,’’ which is the equiva'ent Spanish word.

Rye bread without caraway seeds would not be rye bread atall. Caraway is a purely Spanish word, derived from “‘aloara hueya.’’

The hammock on your veranda got its name from the Spanish ‘‘hamaca,”’ although that is not purely a Spanish

s- lien Ben Girect-

word. Columbus got it from the In- dians 400 years age There are tnany other examples.

“‘Banana,’’ “‘apricot,’* ‘*Canada,”’ “duel’’ and ‘‘palaver'’ are all directly from the Spanish. hh

Another Ticht Squeeze. “*John,”’ said Mrs. Younglove, *‘do you know that you forgot something

Mr. Younglove thought for a mo- ment, and then replied:

**No, Ididn’t know that I had. was it?’’

She put her handkerchief to her eyes and sobbed. Finally, when sbe could trust herself to sp-ak, she answered ‘*You—-you kissed the baby before you started, bu-but you did-didia’t kiss auyh-b-body else. ’’ ‘*Oh-ho,”’ he laughed. notice it, eh?’’

_ Only those who have telt the agoniz-

In acother week I was able to get out of bed and dress myself, and a few weeks later, when | had gained strength enough I was able .o attend to all my household duties and I have ever since enjoyed the bo-t of health.

Cowboy Adoration Vor Nordica,

Once, when Mme. Nordica was sing- ing at a concert in Texas, she forgot her warm overshoes. A cowboy, whom she had utterly fascinated, offered to bring them to her, and he did so, but he brought only one at atime. When Mme. Nordica thanked him and in her gra- cious wuy regretted to have given him so much trouble, he said to her: ‘‘Don't name it, ma’am. I wish you wers a centiped.’’—Philadelphia Ledger.

There are & great pumber of curions euperstitious as to the timeof day when a dying person is most likely to draw bis Jast breath, and the tide, moon and the wind have al] been supposed to have some share in the matter. According to The British Medical Journal, who bas analyzed 25,474 cases of death and 36,515 of birth, where the exact time of day was noted, finds that tbe maximum number of deaths in the early afternoon (2:07 p. m.), ana the minimum in the iast bours before midnight, while the maximum number of births occur in the early hours of the morning, and the minimum in tie early hours of the afternoon.

As regards the out the hocrrs of the maximam uami of deaths are precisely those when the pulse rate aud the temperaisre are at their highest in health, ard when thes is a febrile exacerbation in illness,

The Fiying Fox, The flying fox is a very onrions in- babitant of the forest near Moreton bay in east Australia. It lives in flocks and moves generally toward the dusk of the evcning, and the noise produced by the heavy flapping of the so called wings ig very eingular. The flocks like quies places, where there are large araucarian pine trees, with an underwood of scryp and creepers. The foxes hang in vage pumbers from horizontal branches of the pine trees. When there is a clear space amo the trees, an enormous number of the animals may be seen, and their noise can be beard, for directly they ses any- thing unusual they utter a short bark, something like the sound made by young rooks. Often every branch is crowded, and the young foxes are seen etther flap- ping their wings and holding on with their hind feet and with their heads downward or snarling and fighting for places. Suddenly the whole take to flight and flap their furry, winglike sides and wheel around like heavy birda, fly with their young holding on to them, The creature is not a true fox, and there isa fold of skin which reaches from the fore to the hind legs. Thig ig called the wing, and it enables the pteropus, as the animal is called, to float and tarn in the air.—Philadelphig Press.

Kirghis Music,

One of the Kirghiz came into my tent, and, syuatting down, began to play the kaumass, a three stringed ingtra- ment played with the fingers. The music was monotonous and of a melan- choly cadence, but it harmonized wel] with the surroundings and the moods they inspired. In a word, it was typio- ally Asiatic. I sat and listened to it with pleasure, giving my imagination captive to the music, the soft moaning of the night wind, the gentle crackle of the fire. How many and many a night did Inot spend thus during the long years that followed listening to the dreamy sounds of that primitive Kir- ghiz instrument!

How mapy a dark, solitary winter afternoon did I not while away in this foolish fashion! In course of time I grew accustomed to the kaumuss and derived as much pleasure from it as the Kirghiz did themselves. In fact, I grew fond of it. Its soothing music carried my mind away into the fairy realms of day dreams. My thoughts flew far away to my home amid the dark pine woods of Sweden.—Sven Hedin in ‘Through Asia.”’

Lifeboats of the World.

The lifeboat service is one of the very noblest of philanthropic institutions, and many civilized nations pay special attention to these means for the resous of perishing mariners. England's life- boat service is a voluntary one. The Royal National Lifeboat institation, which controls the bulk of British life boats, was founded in 1824. It now has over 300 lifeboats on the shores of the kingdom, and has been instramental iz saving nearly 30,000 lives. The French lifeboat service was established in 1865, and has 83 stations, while it has been the means of saving over 900 vessel and 7,500 lives.

The French service has one great ad- vantage over ours. It is that the publid

board of works always builds the first lifeboat house at each station as iti

established, consequently relieving the service of a great outlay. The Germap service was established in 1965, and has 104 lifeboat stations. The United States has 233 lifeboat stations, Tbe eost_of tbe United Stutes service i about £290,000 a year.—London Tit Bits.
