To Charles Palmer, Member of the His-

torical Society of Prince Edward Island.

lR:-Accompanying this letter

_,Sym will find a volume which I ask you to place in the archives of your Society for the benefit and instruction of future generations. It possesses no in- trinsic value, and but little antiquarian interest, but it is historical in its char- acter and may hereafter Supply a fund of information not obtainable elsewhere. It contains a faithful record ol the doings of cin-Police authorities, and with a single eye to the claims of veracity, it registers the hours of duty of the Police Oiiicers, their waking and sleeping moments the hours they are on duty, oil” duty, and unllt for duty. llow it came into my possession, it is not necessary to inquire. Dnringtlic silent waiclics ofthe night,

ANI- I swim

between the hour when the God of Day sinks betncath the western horizon, and

the sllliy calm of that supreme moment where he appears again in the east to eu- lighten our planet with the`respiendant- rays of his countenance, a lonely traveller strayed into the sacred precincts ot the Police Station. All was quiet and serene, and the stillness of the night was only broken by the snorinir of the oflicers, who wrapped in the embrace of lilopheus made nighthideous with their deep and sopulchral grunting. I have kept the precious volume ever since that midnight adventure transferred it to my custody,

and l uowhand it over to a society- for whose wclfarcl have the very best wishes.

I am, Sir, your obedient servant,

Sunow Mrrcnntn,

LMOST all animals know how to

A- swim Without having to learn lt. As soon as they fail into the water or are

driven into it they instinctively' make the proper motions and not only manage to keep atloat but propel themselves without trouble.

Exceptions are the monkey, the camel,

the giralie, the llama, which cannot swim without assistance. Camels and llamas

have to be helped across water and giraffes and monkeys drown if they enter it. Now and then both of the latter species manage to cross waterways when they are driven toextremities, -just as human beings occasionally can keep them- selves above water throuzh sheer fright.

A funny though able swimmer is the

lrahblt. He suhmerbes his body, with the

exception oi the head and tail. Theiatti r

sticks away up in the air, and his hind lens make “soap suds" as he churns the water madly to get away. But, with all his awkwardness, he is a swift swimmer. and is beaten only by the squirrel among the land animals.

The squirrel swims with his heavy tail

sunk away down in the water and his head held high. He cleaves the waves like a duck. and a. man in a rowboat has all he can do to keep abreast of the swiur ming squirrel.

One thing that none of the land swim ming animals does is to dive. No matter how hard pressed A swimming deer, rabhit, squirrel, or other purely terrestrial animal may he, it will remain above water. But the muskrat, henver, ici- benr, and utter dive immediately.
