really very old, and he is not active.
It is rather a shame for him to have
retired. Now there is Pilot Lahey -

thinks her daughters too inexperienc-

not take up bridge until she is an old

PAINT UPSIDE DOWN:
Pet,, Found 04, Reason For an Extra-
ordinary Phenonienon.
Down in Dundas County, the con-
stituency which Premier Whitney re-
presents in the Legislature, there re-
sided until quite recently a merchant
commonly known as "Pat." His store
was situated in a village back from
the St. Lawrence .several miles, and
it was a real country trading post,
where neighbors withered o' nights to
talk "hos,s' and "crops" and swap
stories.
Now Pat, a typical son of Erin, had
lived ninny years in the vicinity, and
was respected alike for his honesty
and wit. He was known by every
person for miles around, even as far
as Limerick and Connaught (two Trish
settlements farther north in the wane
try),
One day when business was rather
quiet, and no one was about but a
small guard of loafers, a lady entered
the store and thus addressed the mere
ehanti
"I say. Pat, I arn naving a deal of
trouble with the paint you sold me
the other day."
”And how can that be?" inquired
Pat, his interest evidently very much
aroused. -
"Well, it's like this," she replied;
"the paint wilt not stick to the floor
as it should, while everything which
falls on it from above sticks hard and
fast,"
Pitts face Was a study, but his na-
• tive wit did not fail him.
"That paint," he replied, "is highly
recommended. Sure all the neigh
-
bore for miles around speak well of
it. But in your epee there must be
something wrong. Now, you tell me
the paint will not stick to the floor?"
"No, it will not."
"And it will stick to everything else
which falls on it from above?"
ewe,
"Sure, then, there is only one thing
can be wrong. You have no doubt
opened the wrong end of the can and
put the paint on upside down."
A Misplaced Adverb.
Iti is not even the most grown up
of as who can avoid an occasional de-
feat at the hands of an adverb that.
will not go in its ,right place in the
sentence, but a lad in eine of the To-
ronto schools has produced chef
d' oeuvre which the teachers are still
telling with great glee.
Inspector Hughes had arrived at the
school and was couducting a cheerful
little quiz throughout the school. He
walked into a very junior room, and
in his breezy, cheerful way, began to
pry into the little eouls of the chil-
dren before him. Wjndness was his
topic, and he laid his ground by se -
during a few examples out of the ex-
periences of the children themselves.
Would anyone give him an example
of kindness?
One little boy would. His father
often took him to a fine -cent show.
Then every Youngster in the room
would. All the cheiriges were rung on
the subject of parental indeleence
with examines, but still one little fel-
low remained unheard. He got his,.
chance, and bursting With eagerness,
he eterted, but his excitement was

Procession of Icebergs. .
One of the- most remarkable
he-
noni0fla in Newfoundland ecenery is
the stitely procession of green icebergs
passing along, the East Coast in
spring, This year there was not only
an enormous number of towering ice
moiertains, but the field ice was un-
usually heavy and late. The wind
hung the drift ice in on the shore; and
greatly interfered with navigation, as•
well as chilling the air and delaying
vegetation. But no matter how the
wind is the berg are always steadily
moiling south, driven along by the
great Arctie River, known as the
Ienbradoa Current. They move south
mini they rettch the north bend of the
Gulf Stream, which reaches up to the
Grand Banks, and then turns off tor
Europe and Afrtea. When they reach
tine weenier water they gradually melt
away and disappear. •
This great ocean current, which de-
leys Newfoundland Pgriculture and
impedes navigation, however, brings
down the food for the Ash and the
