Aunt Gertrude laughed, and sex' that she would. Aunt Gertrude was an artist who bad been on a long trip to Europe, and when her nephews and nieces visited her, there was nothing they liked so well as to leak through her big sketch-buok and have her tell them the stories about the pictures. This ,time they had shown special ieterestle the drawing of a street in a mountain village, where two boys were driving a hock of goats up;tothe door of one of the quaint houses: es "That was tos the Alps,"said Aunt Gertrude, and the little e vil lage is on the road that the great Napoleon built through the Simplon Pass and over the mountains more than a hundred years ago. The boy with the stick is driving his goats from house to house, to let his customers have goat's milk according to their needs, just as the milkman drives round his wagon M this -country. The other boy, with a basket, is also delivering parcels from the village store. The clothes that the boys wear, and even their shoes, are made at home." "What a strange house!" broke in Molly.

How a Fiancee and Partnership Were Won. The ancestor of Henry Laboa- chere, Pierre -Cesar Labouehere, was a shrewd business man and lover. Mr, Alger Labeuchere Tho- rold tells in the "Life of Henry La- bouchere" how he won at the same time a fiancee and apartnership in tbe house of Hope. He was sent by Mr. John Hope to England to see Sir Francis Baring on business, and while there fell in love with Sir Francis's third daugh- ter, Dorothy. Before he left Eng- land he asked Sir Francis to let him become engaged to his daugh- ter. Sir Francis refused. Pierre - Cesar then said, "Would it make any difference in your decision if you knew that Mr. Hope was about to take me -into- partnerships" Sir Francis unhesitatingly ad- mitted that it would. Pierre -Cesar then went back to Holland and sug- gested to Mr. Hope that it might be a good plan to take him into part- nership. When Mr. Hope discour- aged the idea, he said, "Would it make any difference in your deci- sion if you knew that I was engaged ir,gisdone.

If we could see the ships of the Grand Fleet in the North Sea we. may be sure they would hardly pre. sent that spitl?c and span appear- ance whichwe'assooiate'with e ship of war during times -of pests; their sides all stained with rust all round the water line, and a generally be- draggled appearance -that is if they Havebeen keeping the sea, Navy the and Army Journal. But the most startling change would be the stripped and naked appearance they would present, far gone would be. all sails, boat dav- its, ridge ropes, and the usual para- phernalia that is pert of any ship's: peace trimmings. The vessels are Cleared for {action I Getting a ship ready for the stern test of battle is 'no light undertak- ing. At least once a week during the piping times of peace the whole ship's company are exercised at "general quarters," an evolution which takes a very few minutes to perform, On these occasions the buglers sound off "exercise action," when the guns are "cast loose," magazines opened, the guns being leaded with a projectile and dummy charge. Drills are then proceeded with, the guns'generally being se- cured, and all stores returned by six bells—ll a.m. When the ship is going to target practice "action" is sounded, and, of course, the guns are loaded with a real charge and the firing pro- ceeds until the amount of ammuni- tion allowed for these occasions is expended. Ilhen the "secure" is sounded. That also is a prepara- tory performance alongside "pre- pare for battle." Then the ship is stripped of every atom of frilling likely to prove dangerous to life and limb. All Wood Is Removal. One of the greatest dangers in a modern action is fire, owing to the terrible incendiary nature of the shells used, so that theoretically no scrap of wood should be found in a warship; but ass men have to live in them during times of peace, a cer- tain amount of wood fittings is ab- solutely necessary for comfort. But every scrap of wood fitting is of a portable nature, and easily re- moved. Occasionally men go to "stations, prepare for battle," when every pieee of woodwork that could be jettisoned is marked, and each man or group of men made to understand for what parts they would be responsible. Just what would be done with boats in action seems never to have been definitely settled. Some offi- cers are in favor of lowering them into crutches on deck or superstruc- tures and filling them with water; others suggest covering them with canvas and binding them round with rope from stem to stern; oth- ers, again, take the heroic course of dropping them into the sea all well fastened together, and allowing them to drift where they will. 7.11te latter course seems the most praoti- eel and sensible one. llhe only object of the boat can be to save life should the ship be re- duced to a sinking condition, and both the filling ,of them with water or marling them dawn would ren- der them useless for this purpose, as it would take some time before they could be made ready for lower- ing, always supposing bhey escaped the shattering effect of-she11. What is being regarded as a good substitute for life-saving purposes in many ships in the grand fleet is the men's mess tables. These ere made of, one -inch planking, are about three feet wide, and from seven to ten feet long. Floabing Hat on the water, they would sup- port a great number of men. lar- mediately meals are finished, these tabes are dismantled, ready for carrying on dealt, should- bhe need for using them for life-saving pur- poses arise. Life-saving air belts have recent- ly been provided. These are worn around the waist and can be blown up quickly, and"will keep the wear- er afloat if the ship goes down. Everybody Protected. In our big modern ships no one will be outside armor protection during the course of an notion. There are no secondary armaments to use to -day ; for although the lat- est of our Dreadnoughts, the "Iron Duke" class carry twelve 6 -inch guns, as diel all pre -Dreadnought ships, these are a purely anti -tor- pedo armaament, and would not be used in a general action. The' gun numbers woukl be all in their tur- rets, while the remainder would be below the protective deck and in- side the beltarmor, At the commencement of an ac- tion that is, if the 'weather were clear enough to allow for Hong range the gun crews would have nothing to do beyond loading the gun, the training, laying and firing being parried oust' iby the control officer in the control Station, situ- ailed at the foremost heed.

The cclnsfort and well-being of the passengers who travel on the Cana- dian Pacific is always foremost in the minds of the officials of the com- pany, and .further evidence of this is to be found in the official an- nouncement made that all the ears ie the Montreal -Chicago service have been equipped with an up-to- dato valet service, so that you can now have your clothes bruslhed and pressed while you sleep. Simultane- ously with this comes the decision of the Canadian Pacific to discontinue the use of the toothpicks on tate tables of the •dining cars. This step has not been taken without serious coneideration, Many letters of e,om- plaaint have been received in this connection, and it is pretty well known that provision of boothpieks at first-class hotels and restaurants is now considered not quite the thing. THE GOAT DOGS. • A Mexican Rancher Describes His Method. of Training Them. Just before the Rio - Grande crosses the boundary lisle between Colorado and New Mexico, it en- ters a box canon whose walls in some places are a thousand feet in height and almost perpendicular. For e number of miles, before it en- ters the canon, the. river flows through a rough country that is worthless for farming purposes. The pasturage even is so scanty that it is suitable only for sheep and goatse The few settlers are all Mexicans. Wolves and coyotes haunt the hills and ravines along the river bank, and the herds must be watch- ed day and night. Near the en- trance to the canon lives a Mexican rancher who owns several large herds of goats. He has found out how to herd his flock without hired help. He sends the herd out on the range under the care of dogs, each of which has been raised among goats, and has, in fact, had a goat foster mother. This man de- scribes his method of training his dog herders as follows: "My dogs are a cross between the shepherd and Scotch collie. As soon as the pups are born, I take those that I want to make into herders away from the mother dog and put them to nurse on a nanny goat, one puppy to a goat. The goat milk agrees with them perfect- ly. .They are never permitted to run with other dogs, and know no companions except goats, and by the time, they are grown they have a thorough knowledge of their adopted relatives. You might al- most say that they were half goat. "After the puppies get their teeth, I have to watch them care- fully, for now and then one of them will get the habit of bitingthe goats. That trait renders the dog atbsolutely useless for my purposes, and I immediately kill him.. But biters are very rare. The dog rais- ed in this way soon becomes a natu- ral guardian of goats, and at it year or so can be put in charge of a herd. The herds go to the hills in the early spring, and remain there till the first snow comes. The dog stays with his herd day and night, drives his charges to the best grass in the morning, and rounds them up .at night on some good bed ground, just as a human herder would do. And all the time he keeps a sharp lookout for I.rowl- ing wolves or coyotes. I almost never lose any goats eo these ani- mals. "I carry food to the dogs once a day. The only time a dog will leave his herd and some in to the ranch is when I fail to take hitn.something to M. And then he is impatient to get back bo his work, and as soon as he has got his meal, hurries away. "I find the dog herders more sat- isfactory than men. They under- stand their business thoroughly,i and they aro always faithful. More- over, 1 do not have to pay them any wages." ,1t ALMOST LYNCHED 16 hwenoned to a ieoal druggist that sold a cheap acid corn eSles instead of the reliable Putnam's Corn Extractor.

British troops in the trenches in West Flanders and northern France are suffering seriously from scurvy and vermin. Water is scarce for drinking purposes and almost none at all of it to be had for bathing purposes despite the great quantities of rain that have fallen. The following letter from a member of the now -famous Middle- sex Regiment, says: "We have been kept busy lately waiting, and continually moving from, the beastly . German shells. The Germans are using vast quan- tities of lyddite; and many of the boys have been permanently deaf- ened by the roar, when the shells explode nearby. "I have not had my clothes or any boots off for twenty days. All the others aro in the same fix. There has been lots of rain, but there is little water for drinking or bathing purposes. "Mud, mutt. That is the principal part of the landscape on every hand. We are living in dug -outs at ;the• foot of little hills or behind patches of woods. "The Germans have four big guns in front of our lines which are liable to go off at any hour of the day or night. Each shellweighs 230 pounds and we call them Black Mabias. They can shoot ten miles, and the other day one struck near the edge of the trench, burying me beneath a wagon -load of mud and slime, but the boys dug me out before I suffo- cated. "Yesterday wa.s a terrible clay. The German artillery kept blazing away from dawn to dark, and it was impossible to get in or vitt of the 'first line trenches. This phase of fighting is far from our old concep- tions of fighting. We seldom see any Germans to shot at except small parties of snipers. "My teeth and gums are getting sore from eating the hard army bis- cuits, and most of the others are in the same way. We usually soak them in warm water or tea before we try to eat them. Writing paper and envelopes are very scarce at the front, for all the apace on sup- ply trains is naw being taken up with provisions, ammunition, fresh arms and other aecou'trements. Only small packages now get through -the military postal service. All big ones are barred." Memory Helps. Not only dates, but figures and facts, can be committed to memory without mach effort by making it a rule never to think of one thing without recalling what you want to remember with it. Suppose you wash to remember a school friend's address. If you think of the num- ber of the house and the- name of the street whenever you think of his home you will never forget it. It is this habit of tying one idea or fact to another that enables some persons to remember quickly, and any one can acquire this habit who will perseveringly follow this sim- ple rule.

Basset, the London oorrespan- dent of the Petit Parisien, relates how he :Erse saw this anapebot, "taken five or six years ago, when King Edward VII„ irritated by cer- taie underhand tricks on the part of his nephew, found it, necessary to tell 'Miliaria II. what he thought of him fairly sher•ply, The indiscreet photograph shows the end of the 'scene. The two sovereigns had 'beer talking in a corner of the gcer- d"en, and'a•fter a discussion,' which seems to have been very heated, Bing Edw,•1rc1'has turned brusquely away, called his dogs to heel, and, obviously displeased, has refused.te hear another word.

Sir Herbert Tree got the photo graph in Homburg in. 1909 from a certain prominent person who wit- nessed the royal quarrel, It may well be that that quarrel sowed the 'seeds of the Kaiser's anger that have attained such monstrous growth since the war began.
