"AU you oiviliana may call it 'war, war,

chinaware I"
The speaker was Sergeant Thomas Tyler,
late of the 30th Cambridgeshire regiment, and
founder of the Army and Navy Veterans
Corps in Toronto, and tae" lad» referred
to was a reporter. The old man puffed at
his pipe and the scribe kept silent, reflect-

ries two medals and clasps bearing the leg-
ends of "Alma,." " Letterman," besides the
Turkish medal for the Crimean campaign.
The opinions of a man who has fought,
through a four years' war which cost 500,-
000 lives is worth reading.
a MAN 'WITHOUT REAR* •
"You folks talk about heroes, " main-
ued the veteran; " did you ever see one ?
Did you ever see a man without fear?
Look here, when a man tells you he does
nob know what fear is, call him a liar.
When he says that he has faced death
without fearof beingkilled, call him another
kind of a liar, and when he tells you he
would rather fight them eat, you may eall
hint the biggest kind of a liar you can think
of."
"1 suppose it feels rather uncomfortable
to stand up and be made a target of?"
suggested the soribe.
HOW ONE BrEts manBn wtrte,
"Feel 1 I tell you, lad, it is not possible
to say how it feel; You are in a blue
funk. Your tongue is dry and sticks to
to the roof a your mouth, your inside
turns to water, and your boots feel empty.
I have felt that way and I am not ashamed
to say so, But it did not last long, boy, it
did not last long."
" How long ? "
"Only until one of my comrades was
cut in two by a ball and his hot blood
spattered all over me. I forgot my fright
then. I wanted to taste more blood. That
is howl felt at Alma, where I was baptiz-
ed."

HOW ALMA WAS WON. lel'O3-41
The -old veteran gazed out across the blue
waters of Lake Ontario, familiar to him
sine's he did garrison duty at the Fort dur-
ing the Trent excitement, and then said:
"Alma 1 You want to hear aboutAbral
That is the place which we were told was
i
so strongly ntrenohed that we could not
storm it or take it in six months. We did
it in three hours and a half at the point of
the bayonet. Those were days of hard
lighting and hard living. Why, when we
landed at Eupat( ria we had to camp in the
open air without tents or shelter of any
kind. it rained cats and dogs and the only
naan in the whole army who had a roof over
his head was Lord Raglan. He slept under
an upturned cart,. We lay there two days
and then marched to Alma where the Rus -
slam were ivaiting for us."
WIVES AND DAUGHTERS LOOKED ON.
"11 was not a very pleasant kind of a
picnic to go to, was it?"
"Well, the Russians thought it was at
first. They brought their wives and
daughters from Sebastopol to watch the
fun. All the nobility was there to see the
French and English swept off the face qf
the green earth into the sea. But we spoilt
that program. Three hours and a.half after
the first shot was fired there was nob a
Russian left on that field who could use his
legs to run away, and I was eating the
sandwiches that Prince Menchikoff had
brought for his lunch. I took them frone
his carriage. That was the first looting I
ever did.
' WITH TAB COLOR DTVIS/ON.
"But it was a great fight. The allied
army was divided into three corps, the
attack, support and reserve. My regiment,
the Cambridgeshire, formed part of the
attack. I was with the color division,
between the two officers, Ensigns Williams
and Johnston who carried the Qneen's and
the regiment:1 colors. Behind us were six
sergeants, three in the front rank, two in
the next and then one. That composed the
color division and was in the middle of the
battalion.
THE CO3I1LND TO ADVANCE.
"The Russians were drawn up about
eight hundred yards from the River Alma.
That river and a village lay between us.
The word was given to advance and as soon
as we were in motion the Russians opened
Bre, and it was a fire. You on talk about
the boom of big guns, but wait till you hear
the shriek and scream of shot and shell, and
know that every one means a gap in the
ranksof your chums and friends.
"Well, we arrived at the village and as
we gob there it caught fire and flared up as
if by magic, but that was not going to stop
us. We had had our men killed and had
smelt their blood and we wanted blood for
ib.
WHILE THE GUNS THUNDERED.
" We reached the river and commenced
to cross while the guns above uk thundered
and crashed as they sent out red death
among us. In the middle of the river I
nearly lost my right hand man, Ensign
Johnson, who got stuck in a hole in the
mud. I grabbed him by the neck with one
hand, the colors in the other, and dragged
him along.
" Well don; Tyler!' shouts oat Colonel
Hoe, That made me feel proud, lad, and
I would have charged up to the gates of

"A couple of eliek-looking individuals
are working on farmers in Emit ()county.
They receive permission from a farmer to
paint a sign on his barn and then ask hiin
to sign a document statingthat the work
has been done. Later the document turns
up as a promissory note."
The above paragraph, clipped from an
exchange, contains a *hole host of inforrna-
Mon about the credibility and gullability of
the Ontario farmer. City people laugh at
he idea of a man in his senees signing his
name to a document without first examin-
ing it closely, just as they laugh every
time it m reported that a granger has been
found almost asphyxiated through blowing
out the gas in a hotel room. Erequent are
the at:counts in weekly newspapers of ha -
fork men and lightning rod agents going in
triumphant raids throughout the rural die.
Wets- and reaping a harvest of promissory
notes whieh will materialize in tenfold the
amounts which their makers really intend-
ed. The solution of the stupidity of farm-
ers. in matters of this kind will be found in
the method of his "raising," or early train-
ing, and his environment. The first lesson
a child receives in the country from anxioas
parents is to be respectfuhespeoially to inen
of
• EDUCATION AND COOD PRESENCE,
and this olass is exemplified by the school
teacher and the district minister. This is
all very well provided the child were te.tight
to be respectful also of himself. This les-
son ite seldom or never tanght andhence the
bashfulness and timidity do of ten observable
in country boys and girls. The result of
such training is that the children grow into
men and women likely to be abaehed in
the presence of sharp -looking strangers who
have a gifted command of the English
language. Nor is the effect of dress to be
under estimated. There are mea in To-
ronto to -day who were raised in the miuntry
distriots who confess that ip took years of
residence in the oity to remove the Impres-
sion that good clothes indicated worth in
their possessor. This being the case the
hay -fork man has half effected his sale the
moment he crosses the threshold of the
farrner's doorway. His manner is polite-
ness itself and the smile he wears makes
suspicion fly before it. It is just about
noon and he aske if he can purchase his
dinner. He is told that he is welcome to
dinner without the pay, and the farmer's
'Wife bustles about and prepares an extra
good meal while the guileful hay -fork agent
reads a pocket bible or shows the children
his gold watch oalling thetn "pretty dears,"
"merry prattlers" and other such captivat:
ing names. Be finds out the old man's
politica and even ontrivals him in emphatic
condemnation of Mowat or Thompson as
the case may be. He gives them all the
latest news asks a blessing at the table and
talks a little on religion. After dinner he
incidentally mentions that he

or is agent for the Jupiter Lightning Rod
Company, or the latest improved hay -fork.
The price he names is low and he does not
appear at all anxious to sell at first. He is
simply on his way fo another neighborhood
wliere he expects to sell forty or fifty in a
week. He mentions names of purchasers
ell -known to farmers as men of probity
and shrewdness. Finally he presses home
a bargain on his victim, and the rustic
cannot find it in his heart to refuse. He
hasn't ready money, but this nice, religious
agent will wait. A note at six months will
do the trick, and the next harvest will
probably be abundant. So pen and ink are
produced, and the farmer is told to "sign
here 1" He knows but little about business
forms and does not scrutinize the note too
closely. Even if he did his suspicions
could be lulled to rest in two minutes by
his srnoothetongued, deceiver. He signs his
name and fears no injury. He has absolute -
no suspicions of wrong whatever. There
is to him but one type of man in all the
world and that is the plain, honest type of
farmers, his neighbor; with whom he has
associa,ted all his life and who certainly
wouldn't beat him outof money by such mis.
representation. The agent secures this note,
bids all a good-bye, kisses the baby and
proceeds on his way. A few weeks later
there arrives at this farmer's household a
dray -load of hay -forks or enough lightning
rods to protect a country town from com-
fla,gration. Protests are useless; the note
shows that he has ordered the whole outfit,

The term aborigine; or the name Bush-
men, is applied to the original inhabitants.
The application of the word "native" to
the bloke is looked upon ful an 108011 to
the white settlers. '
When a coastal sohooner lauded me at
Geraleleon, on the far west coast of Aus-
trent% 1 had the impression that a trip ei
few miles inland would bring me to nurner-
ous settlements of the aborigines. Not-
evathetanding all 1 had read, 1 did not have

the interior, Dead that their habit of build-
ing no settled homes, but always being on
the move, made a visit to them very diffi-
cult.
I made ai tedious trip of about 350 miles
into the desolate interior, beyond Lake
Austin, and well over to the edge of the
Great Victoria desert, without having dis•
covered a aiugle trace of the savages. ItThw
and then I met a semi -civilized aborigine,
but I began to understand that my deter-
mination to live for a while with or near
these peeple was easier formed than carried
out.
The semi -civilized wretches that I met
were indeed a sorry lot. The worst of the
Hottentots of Africa, of the Caribs in the
interior of Dutch Guiana or the Africans
in Haiti, are a sufficiently bad lot to make
one feel that civilization is hopless in their
case ; but they are all, physically, intellec-
tually and morally, far beyond and above
these degraded creatures.
They had one, and only one, reason for
desiring to ward off death, an that great
reason was—grog 1 Enfarced prohibition
in that region would quickly result in the
total extermination of theme miserable
wretches, who would do nothing to ward
off- their doom if their beloved rum was
taken from them. Nearly starved to -day,
gorged to the verge of illneas to -morrow,
exposed to all possible climatic changes,
they yet imagine that without working for
it they are entitled to all the grog they can
consume—and that having obtained it they
are in possession of civilization's principal
and only important bleesing They are
utterly worthless at lab or,at which they can
be kept only so louts is necessary to pro-
cure the price of a drink. Only on a hunt-
ing trip or cattle round -up do they show
any real signs of life,
As is often the case where the edge of
civilization is encroaching upon the teria-
tory of a savage people, I found the savage
a rather less unlovely being than his semi -
civilized brother. As he wore fewer clothes
and bathed oftener, he was certainly phy-
sicallyanuch sweeter, if not more wholesome
morally.
The aborigines are a black -brown people,
with hanging lower lip, prominent cheek
bones, high but narrow foreheads, flattened
noses, and very long, coarse, black hair.
The latter ohareateristio is their chief diff-
erence from African negroes.
I was warned that "spearing white men"

ages, and I was led to believe that to at-
tempt to live so close to them as to be able
to obaerve their habits would be sure death.
Yet there, as often elsewhere, I found
that the golden rule was an excellent safe-
guard and "open sesame," and that it was
but necessary to once impress upon them
my kindly inteations and my willingness to
share food with aboriginal visitors, to
assure me fair treatment.
In one small community, then dwelling
temporarily on the bank of a dried-up
stream which, when running, emptied into
the salt marshes of the interior, I had the
good fortune to be able to speedily cure a
lad of a bad thorn wound in the leg that
would not heal ; also to remove some snag -
like teeth from two of the older men and
one of the women. These little acts won
their confidence as no amount of gold—a,
well-nigh useless thing to them—could have
done. Trona that time I was as much One
of their community as I could endure
being.
The trying climate, with he long periods
of drought, and the absence of ao,y of the

made the lives of these Australian abor-

When I first visited this camp, one of the
boys bed not yet been admitted to man's
estate and a man's privileve. The period,
eats the ceremonies of that event arrived,
while I wasthere. and I had the opportun-
ity of witnessing some of the rites.
Neighbors were invited in, and, after
emu° talk which 1 did not understand, but
which I vsas told referred to the proof that
the youth had reached a suitable age, or
about IS years, theinclividual to be honored
was led torth from a nearby hut with much
ceremony. This was done by two of the
older women.
As soon aa the boy appeared, three of the
men who were hiding behind bushea, rush-
ed out, seized hien, a»d carried him off,after
a sham battle in which the women appeared
to be attempting to rescue him. This is
supposed to sigoify that the mothers pre-
• fer to keep their sons an boys or children as
long as possible, while the fathers want
them to joint their ranks as men.
At the place where the led was taken by
the men a number of ceremonies were gone
throngh with. Prominent among these
were the removal of the two upper front
teeth, as a permanent sign of his manhood,
and a severe beating with heavy switolies,
which he must take stoically. After these
ceremoniala which lasted some days, the
youth was allowed to join the men in "first
bites" at meals, in huntic.g, and in the
privilege of choosing "gins " or wives.
Wild honey enters prominently into the
a,boriginal food preparation. To get this
honey, which abounds in the high gum
trees, they adopt a method of climbing
which is somewhat different from anything
I have seen anywhere else.
Around the tree they weave a strong
girdle of flexible vine, making 11 a little
larger than the trunk. This is held nearly
shoulder high by the left hand. In the
right hand they carry a sort of rude toma-
hawk. With this tool they cub a series of
notches in the bark, which they use ea
steps, contenting themselves with sufficient
to get a bearing for their strong great
cos. As they step up from one notch to
the next, they deftly move up the vine
girdle, and tnen stand ready to cut notches
still higher. In this way they safely and
swiftly ascend the tallest trees, apparently
feeling no meeasiness 150 or more feet frorn
the ground.
This is almoab the only sign of an invent-
ive faculty that these degraded people
have; some odd sleight-of-hand tricks and
other "magic" being all else of the sort
that I noticed, But that, as Mr. Rudyard
Kipling says, is another story.
A MARINE WONDER.
The Great Coral Barrler Reef off the Coast
or Australia. -
One of the marine wonders of the world
is the great barrier reef of Australia. This
stupendous rampart of coral, stretching in
an almost unbroken line for 1250 miles
along the northeastern coast of Australia,
presents features of interest which are net
to be equalled in any other quarter of the
globe.
Nowhere is the action of the little marine
insect, which builds tip with untiring
industry those mighty mountains with
which the tropical seas are studded, more
impressive; nowhere are the wonderful
foroes of nature more apparent. By a
simple process of acicretion there has been
reared in the course of countless centuries
are adamantine wall against which the
billows of the Pacific, sweeping along ia an
uninterrupted -course of several thousand
miles, dash themselves in ineffectual fury.
Inclosed within the range of los protect-
ing arms is a calm inland Bea, 80,000 square
miles in extent, dotted with a multitude of
coral islets and presenting at every turn
objects of interest alike to the unlearned
traveler and the man of science. Here
may be witnessed the singular process by
which the wavy, gelatinous, liviug mass
hardens into atone, then serves as a collect-
ing ground for the flotsam and jetsam of
the ocean, and ultimately develops into eaa
island covered with a luaurious mass of
tropical growth.
Here again may be seen in the serene
depths of placid pools extraordinary forms
of marine life, aglow with the most bril-
liant color's, and producing in their infinite
variety a, bewildering sense of the vastness
of the life of the ocean.

And hold thee by their magic power 1

A g. raesoine Visitor of Woo;

The night grows dark, but darker still
The Dread that haunts the lonely way
Begone and leave my love to me.
I cannot yield her up to thee,
Yon rugged mountain bars our way.
The light hag Telt the evening sky ;
Still Moser as we oaward ride,
I feel thy presence at my side.
We surely cannot parted be,
At this. the hour of deepeSt Woe.
She newts my sympathy and power,
To clear the skice that darkly lower.
Away, away, but faster still,
hear thy fearsome tread resound ;
The shadOWS close around her hoad,—,
Dira shine the foes of the dead.
Thoinet still upon our beaten track,
