The bodies Were terribly mutilated, aid we could tell et a glance that it had 'been the' work if Malay pirates or some of those fierce natives that help make large chunks of Sumatra, plams of everlasting nightmare. ."We Went into the charthouse and found the body of the first " 'mate.

The old man and the rest of them were toe busy to watch me, so I ,sat about with my plan. "I climbed u,p on the galley and picked off the stairepipe. I fastened the stovepipe on the rail and 'whit- ed it at the rag -timing natives as they paddled towards us through the gloom. Then I put a big rocket in the improvised cannon, got out box of matohes, and waited until the savages were within -proper dis- tante. "Finally those six canoes were just where I wanted them, and I let go. There was a, splutter, zip and a roar, and a blazing red rocket shot kerpluisk into the mid- dle of the ,bunch ef yodelling pirates. • The • sing -song stopped with a short turn and a howl of anguish came across the water. Then I let go another and another. First I'd give them a red and then a blue and then a white. "Gosh, if wed had twelve -inch gu'ne we couldn't have aecomplished more.

Of the grown-up male population of Canada one person in ten can neither read nor write, the exact number of illiterates being 207,322, out of 2,197,663 men, who are ,21 years or older. So .say the latest oeneus returns; 'ancl.give the Brit- ish -born citizens the highest stand- ing for educatidn. Of Cie 409,000 male immigrants feom the British Tales all can read. and write save 13,000, which is 3.16 per cent. Of -immigrants from foreign lands one in sixis unable to read or write. Of the 1,441,933 Canadian -born voters there are five -in every hundred vsho do . not ,beast those accomplish - meets. • , The census taker also looked foe some education in the entire popu- labial' from nye 'years of age up. Eleven in a hundred did not come up ' to the mark. The. Province of Ontario made by far the best show- ing, for here the percentage of illit- eracy is only 6.52. ,Little Prince Edward Island' came second with 7 62 per °eat. The most uneducated, province -was New 13rundivick, with 14 in every hundred who cannot read or write, though in the neigh- boring province of Nova Scotia its proportion is just 10 pex' hundred. In Quebec there are 217,316 People without meaner-4m.y educations Which is 12,69 per cent. of the pop- ulation of five years and over. The real place to' go if you can read and write and wish to be con- spicuous, is the Northwest Terri- tories. There you would have an advantage over 70 people in every hundred of the population; most of them, however, would .be Indians and half-breeds. Throughout the Dominion the o .ortion of illiterates ha e fallen from 14 to 10 per hundred since the pre- vious census in 1001. Saskatchewan has shown the greatest improve- ment—from 35 per cent. to 13. Every other province shows some amber- ation in the educational conditien of its inhabitants. In Ontario, for instanee, despite the large mcrease in population them are 24,000 teaser illiterates 'than there were ten years ago. Only in the thme prairie .provinces hass there been mi crease in the total, of those who can- not read nor write, and that, of course, is due to the large influx of foreign -bore immigrants.

Weak POilltS in the British Govern.- ment's Insurance Bill. If all men were perfectly honest, schemes like the British government ineurance act might be ideal sohernes. But the few months la Which the act has been in operation have shown that many English- man cannot resist temptation. The ani6unt of feigned illness among the insured is beam -Mug a great scan- dal. • In this respect Great Britain is repeating the experience of Ger- niftily, which furnished the model for the Lloyd George bill. The -Ger- mans have invented a new word for the illness of the government in- sured, and some similar word will be needed in England soon. Some employers who pay small wages find that the number of em- ployes absent from 'work on ac- count of alleged illness is from twice to ten times the number un- der former conditions, before work- men and -women were Assured of ten shillings a Week whenever they laid off. The doctors agree that there is an enormous amount of malingering, but have not yet dis- covered any cure. • Many persons consider that a week of leisure, with an income of ten 1iiflings, is a justifiable holi- day. When the official doctor as- serts -Lima they are not ill they be-' gin to denounce the act as a fraud arid make political capital of it. Conservative newspapers are only too willing to print complaints from the insured that, the insurance act is a failure. Fourteen million people are now paying their weekly contributions, "licking stamps," the government's opponents say derisively. Undoubt- edly many of them find fault with the administration of the act, and probably some amendments will be found necessary. • New problems develop every day. An employer has written to the pa- pers explaining that an employee had been four or five months in jail charged with mmaler. ' The trial re- sulted in acquittal. The employer wants to take back the man, but wants to know who is to pay the in- surance contributions for the time of detention in jail. The act says nothing on that point. For the time opposition to the in- surance scheme, or rather criticism of it, is the principal political cap- ital of the conservative party. Horne rule and Welsh disestablishment have taken back seats as targets for attack. But while conservatives declare that c,ompulmry insurance is a failure their leaders do not go so far as to urge .repeal, It is un- popular with many, but whether it is not popular with the great ma- jority of the insured is still an open question.

Compared With Olden Days the Sailors Pare Very Much lI Within the pbatetiel.ecade the diet- ary in the Royal Navy has altered greatly for the better. Gone are the days of biscuits so full of wee - vile that they had to be yapped on the table before being eaten ; of salted meat so tough and hard that it could be manufactured into snuff- betbes ; and of beer and water which, through long keeping in wooden casks, was as often es not quite un- fit to drink, says London Answers. Beer—of which the Elizabethan seamen received a gallon a day— has been supplanted by rum; while the water on board is now kept in iron tanks, which are refilled from the ehbre, or by the distilling aps • paratus on board, at frequent in- tervals, • • - All modern -ships are fitted with bakeries, so Jack receives his fresh, newly -baked leaf every day of his life. There is also a refrigerator •on board, in which,is stowed enough fresh meat and vegetables to last every 'man in the ship for a month, so• the sailor is no longer subsisting on salt beef and pork within a few days of leaving harbor. •Floating Hotels. A modern battleship, in faat, only carries about two dame' salt meat —that is, if she is fitted With a re- frigerator; and .it is then carried merely as a "stand by," to be ser- ved out in very exceptional circum- stances.. • The ordinary daily rations of every man in the Navy is 1 lb. of fresh bread (or 3-4 lb. bread and • 1-4 lb. flour); 1-2 lb, fresh meat; 1 lb. fresh vegetables; 4 oz. sugar; 1-2 oz. of tea (or 1 oz. of coffee for every 1-4 oz. of tea, if preferred); 1-2.oz. of drinking chocolate (or 1 oz. of coffee .if preferred); 3-4 oz. of untrweetened condensed milk; 1 oz. of jam or marmalade; and 4 oz. of preserved meat on one day of the week in harbor, or on two days while at sea. Mustard, pepper, vinegar, and salt are served out as required, while 1-2 lb. of biscuit or 1 lb. of flour is issued instead of the bread if the latter is not available. A man •over the age of twenty receives one eighth of a pint of rum daily, but those who desire it can mceivtamon- ey instead. The rum itself, to all 'men except warrant and chief petty officers, is served out in the forth of "grog"— three parts of water to one of rum. It is called by this name as the mix- ture was first issued by Admiral Vernon in 1740, for he, from the fact that he were breeches made of a stuff called graga,m, was known to his men by the nickname of "Old Grog." Can Purehase Extras.. The sailor, in addition to his stat- • ed ration, is granted a messing al- lowance ar 44. a ay by the Govern- ment; and with this sum he can purchase eitras from the stores on board. All the ordinary articles, such as bread, meat, vegetables, tea, coffee, cocoa, condensed milk— everything, in fact, except rune— can be bought in this way, but wadi- tknal delicacies like tinned salmon and rabbit, • raisins for , puddings, dried beans and peas, pickles, suet, etc., etc., can be procured if re- quired. All those articles are of the very first quality, and as they are bought by the contract department of the Admiralty in enormous quantities, there is no doubt that Jack gets the finest value for his money. A man, moreover, is not forced to take up his full allowance of pro- visions. Re must draw one third of his amount of meat and vegetables, but for the remainder, if he likes, lie can 'be paid, their equivalent value in hard caeli. Once a month each sailor can buy one pound of tobacco free of duty, It is /steed in leaf for a shilling a pound, and cut up ready for con- zumption at ls. 2d., and as many officers smoke nothing but the lat- ter variety, it speaks well for its quality. All this tobacco comes.from special tobacco plantations in South Africa, and coald not be bought ashore under six shillings a pound. • By the Ton.

Cry for "Emancipation From Do- mestic' Slavery." The "new Woman" question has come to the fore in Japan, just as it has in the Occident, and has aroused almost as much attentien as the wornah's rights problem in foreign lands. The Japanese woman, 'compared to her sisters abroacl, has ocettpied a modest place in the life of the empire and has been held greatly in subjection. But advanced opin- ion agrees that the Japanese wo- man is entitled to greater freedom and wider intellectual aetivitiest then hitherto has been allowed her. A cry for "emancipation of wo- men" from "domestic slavery" is being raieed by a number of edu- cated girls'who call themselves "Bobleen "%o t"°enotkl ngoTe r 1 y Tshpeescei fy "new wa wm they wish to accomplish but in a general way they defy the old Order of things laid down for the fernale sex. They have their own publi- cations and •occasionally arrange Public 'meetings for the propagation ofo t ern ideas. They have a club of their own in Tokio, and gather for nightly woman's rights discussions. However, these are the extrem- ists. Their utterances and their mode of life have shocked conserVa- tive Japan. In fact, some of them have been so radical in their action that the authorities have invoked the law to restrain them.
