SWIMMING LEARNED .4 AMY.
A One -Hour Lesson Should Make
One Competent.
You cam teach yourself to swim
8)nd you can do it in an hour or less,
eays a writer in' the-Chriatign Her-
ald. I know persons who have done
it by nollowhig ,cerefully these di-
rections
First and foremost, fix this
thought clearly in your mind -.—The
water will bear you up. It is fear
and struggle that invariably eend
a person to the bottom. The best
way to acquire confidence that
makes for *enrage and fun is :—Go
squarely and reasonably at it. Be-
gin in still water; the old swim -
ruing pool on the farm is just the
place. Wade out until your shoul-
ders are covered, squet a Little and
get yourself wet all over. Don't be
the least atom afraid even if a little
water does get into your nose and
ears; wade out a little further un-
• til you are up to your chin and
now your toes will begin to leave
the bottom of the pool. Do not be
alarmed.
. This show e you that you are a
lighter than the wate.r. Now
lift your chest and with the muscles
of your stomach breathe deep,
stretch your arms out to form the
letter T of yourself, stiffen your
backbone and hollo,w your back as
though ,suadenly you were a very
inapertent and dignified person.
Your toes have oome up to the sur-
fa-ce now. Lean your head back
freely as far as you ean, keeping
your mouth Aut. Lie back with
absolute confidence, and there you
are floating. Keep your backbone
stiff, gently paddle with your
hands, and you are swimming.
Make toward the shore, of course.
Then try it all over again. This
time kick with your feet very gen-
tly; strong strokes might turn you
over and frighten you. Keep your
balance and practice two or three
times in straiglit succession.
The next thing that you will be
learning is the "V" strokes Kick
out until both legs are like the let-
ter V, shut them together like the
blades of a pair of scissors (which
gives a strong drive ahead), then
draw them up sidewise like a frog
and kick pereistently out again.
Then try making your lege go AS if
you were climbing up stairs. Al-
ways remember the water will bear
you up, and the great and only
'difficulty about swimming will be
out of your way. •

Great Gag Well Near Pelican Has
pfds Ilae Been BurningFour•
teen Years.
• Fourteen years ago a party of oil -
diggers were sent by the Geological
Survey of Canada info what was
• then an almost unknown part of the
North-West Territories, but is now
included within the Province of Al-
berta. 'Their instructions were to
find if the reported existence, of pe-
troleum in the Far North wee a
fact, writes Aubrey Fullerton in
Toronto Star Weekly.
An oinnea,riag outfit was an ns -
novation in the wilderness, but it
Wile finally gotten in over a hard
'trail, set up at Pelican Rapids, on
the Athabases, River, and put to
work. When the drill had reached
a depth of 820 feet it struck gas.
The flow was so great that it drove
back iron balls that were dropped
deem the pipe, and the noise of the
escaping gas could sometimes be
heard two or three miles away. It
did not leesen any, and the Men
were at length compelled to aban-
don the effort.
The next year they ea,Me back,
hoping to find the gas run out
enough to allow them to resume
boring. But when they had elea,ned
out the hole and drilled only seven-
teen feet further the gas escape re-
commenced with such intensity that
again they were forced to stop. The
gas was tapped, and enough of it
used to give the party fuel and light
and to make all the steam neces-
sary for •a twenty-five horsepower
boiler during the season's day.
After they went, some one came
along and lighted the jet. It is still
burning. Local report has it that
tit hate been burning continuously,
but it is more likely to have been
extinguished now and then during
the past dozen years and re -lighted
by settlers and passers-by. That the
gas flow is undiminished., however,
is quite c,ertain, for there is a flame
nearly fifty feet high and of very
substantial cireumferente. In Jan-
uary last a. party of returning sur-
veyors camped, on a bitterly cold
night, at the gas well, whose
cheerful flame so warmed the win-
ter atmosphere for many yards
around that they slept comfortably
in the open.
GAS, OIL, TAR AND COAL.
The Athabaska River, in whose
viciuity this effusive gas eupply is
found, is one of the great water-
ways of the new North. The Peace
and Mackenzie Rivers make up
with it a, trio that mean almost
everything to the industrial future
of tbe North-West, and, among
their good points is the fact that
they all run through belts of gas,
oil, tar and coal lands. There is,
for instance, in the Athabasca dis-
trict, a tract of a hundred thousand
square miles that is saturated svith
petroleum. The Pelican gas well,
which may be keeted on a good
map of Canada at a point on the
Athabasca River, some two hun-
dred miles north of Edmonton, was
the unintentional result of an at-
tempt to tap the underground oil
supply, and numerates other bor-
ings have been made at various
other points throughout the dis-
trkt. The • existence of petroleum
in immense quantities has been
thus abundantly proven, though
whether or not it is of uniformly
high grade is not yet so fully cer-
tain.
This is one of the wonders of the
new North. What was once sup-
posed to be a wildernees, without
industrial value,. is novs seen to
have many possibilities, and this
underground supply of petroleum
is one of the best of them. Its ex-
planation lies hiaden away baA in
the ages of the past, when there
must have been ,seme, mighty earth
movements going on in those north-
ern parts. The thing now is not so
much to explaie it as to get at it.
Until the railroads get into the
-country there is no possibility of
devekping the resource, and mean-
while there is a tremendous amount
of good illuminant and fuel going to
waste. The Pelica,n gas well is
supposed to be the largest in the
world, and it gives no indication of
running out. During the past year
it was noticed for the first time that
small drops of tar were being blown
up with the gas and falling on the
ground around the well like rein.
TO CAPTURE THE SUPPLY.
But if the oil, which is the mere
merchantable of the twin products,
can be reached only through such
uncontrollable volumes of gas, it
still remains to find a way of getting
at it. The report to the Geological
Survey in regard to the Pelican
well recommended that a new bore
at the depth of 820 feet, where the
fine lerge, ga,s vein was encountered
"should be at neast ten inches in
diameter; then it would be possible
to re-cluce the easing four or five
times, riving that many different
lines of' pipe to be used in getting
by these gee veins." Some such
method will undoubtedly be tried
soon, for the hoped-for railroads
are now heading in that direction.
The spec -Mettler entertainment of a
giant gas well blazing high and
furiously is very interesting, but it
is too wasteful of natural resources
to no purpose to be long tolerable,
even en the new and unexploited
Canadian 'North.
Coal, and gas are the three
wonder riehes of that fat corner of
the Empire. It has been supposed
to yield chiefly fues and pelts but
these other products ere quiie as
native and far snore valuable. The
whole north land above the present
line of rail is a region of mineral
wealth, which, in its nearer iifinitE,
takes the form of the largest gas
and oil reserves in the world, ans.',
farther north, of eoal bed e no one
knows how large,
Where nature has been he lavisk
ae to keep bue,ning up ndattillhave
plenty left, it may be taken that
she has filled and soaked, the land
with combiletiblee. About two limo
dred miles, from the Arotio Circle
there is a coal area, on the Mac-
kenzie River, that has been on fire
foe a hundred years. It has been
slowly burning from within, and
spreading, until now the fire hoe
covered some twenty Milos, howing

WHITE OAR EXHAUSTED.
Spruce Rapidly Supplanting Elm
In, Canadian Cooperage.
Although elm still leads among
the woods used for &ask cooperage,
spruce is rapidly supplanting it. In
the total output of barrels in the
Dominion last year, there were
used, according to figures cempilecl
by the Forestry Branch of the De-
partment of the Interior, 80,016,000
pieces of elm, in staves, headings
and hoops, as .against 37,704,000
pieces of 'spruce, There were, how-
ever, over 11,000,000 more spruce
staves and 9,000,000 fewer elm
staves reported for 1911 than for
1910. In time, elm will probably
be used only for hoops, as it is the,
best wood for the purpose, the sup-
ply is fast diminishing, and other
epecies can be used to ad -ventage
for staves and headings. Tha ulti-
mate substitute for elm will proba-
bly be birch, which is -comparatively
plentifuL
Slack cooperage is of vastly
greater importance than tight coop-
erage in Canada. • This is because
the majority of Cianadian products
are of a rough and dry nature, ,such
as lime, potatoes, apples, dry fish,
flour,cereals, etc,, and beeause
Cetnadien woods are, best suited to
slack cooperage.
White oak, the onlywood which
ean be used for containers of alco-
holic liquids, has been praeticelly
exhausted in Canadian woodlands.
In 1911 only 2,768,000 oak staves
were cut, while 7,293,000 were im-
ported.
A rough estimate on the part of
the Forestry Branch places the
minimum amount of materiel used
in the manufacture of all classes of
cooperage as 62,353,190 board feet,
made up as follows Staves, 29,367,-
714 feet; beading, 24,466,666 feeb,
and hoops, 62353,190 feet.
THE WAY OUT.
Change of Food Brought Success
and Happiness.
An ambitious but delicate girl,
after failing to go through school
on account of nervousness and hy-
steria, found in Grape -Nuts the
only thing that seemed to build her
up and furnish her the peace of
health.
"From infancy," she says, "I
have not been strong. Being ambi-
tious to learn at any cost I finally
got to the High School. but soon
had to abandon my studies on ac-
count of nervous prostration aud
hygieria.
- 'My food did not agree with me,
I grew thin and despondent. I
could not enjoy the simplest social
affair for I suffered constantly from
nervousness in spite of all sorts of
medicines.
"This wretched condition con-
tinued until I was twenty-five, when
I became interested in the letters
of those who had cases like mine
and who were getting well by eat-
ing Grape -Nuts.
"I had little faith but procured
a box and after the first dish I ex-
perienced a peculiar satisfied feel-
ing that I had never gained from
any ordinary food. I slept and
rested better that night, and in a
few days began to grow stronger.
"I had a new feeling of peace
and restfulness. In a few weeks, to
my great joy, the headaches and
nervousness left me and life be-
came bright and hopeful. I re-
sumed my studies and later taught
ten months with ease—of course
using Grape -Nuts every day. It is
now four years since I began to use
Grape -Nuts, I am the rnistreSs of a
happy home, and the old weakness
has never reamed." Name given

ENGLAND'S MOUSE CLUB.
Has Shows and Gives Prizes—Mke
That Bring $38 Apiece.
England has a National Meuse
Club, which has been in exiseenee
for seventeen years. .After the -club
had started Lady Deeies became a
successful exhibitor of prize mice
and presented the club with a cup.
The club owes its existence to a de-
sire to promote the breeding and
exhibiting of fancy miee and to de-
fine preelsely the true type of mice.
It urges the adoptien of ,such type
on 'breeders and judges as the only
recognized standard by which mice
are to be judged.
Usually there are about a hun-
dred members. The annual sub-
scription is payable in advance but
almost nominal in amount. It i
arranged by the club that an an-
nual club show shall take place in
addition to the two ,cup ,shows. The
great annual show ,exhibits aver 400
mice axed the Woodiwiss cup, or
rather Woodiwiss bowl, worth aio
los., is offered.
Fourteen other cups are offered
by the club for competition, says
the Lady's Pictorial, ineluding the
28 8s. Coronation Challenge cup.
.These trophies do not become the
sole property of the winners' but
are given up when requiredfor
forthcoming slows. In addition to
the cups, certificates and medals
there aro mall money prizes
offered.
"As poor es a church mouse" has
become proverbial, yet aristocro,es
outside the church are sometimes
,soldfor £7. This was the price ask-
ed for a Dutch mask mouse.
Would-be breeders of mice need not
be discouraged,. however, at so high
in figure, for it m u:nusual, and quite
a geed pair of self -colored speci-
mens fit ,to shose cam be bought Inc
ten shillings and a good pais can
even be bought at five shillings.
Masked varieties are more expen-
sive, as they are more difficult to
obtain. One pound or 21 10s. is a
fair price for a thoroughly good
Dutch or "broken" exhibit.
Them are no slack times in the
business of mouse keeping, though
the average life of a pet -mouse is
only one year. There are no less
than twenty varieties recognized of
fancy mice, which suggest a liberal
education to the ,student of 'color
breeding and heredity. A mouse
reaches maturity at the age of
three ,and a half to four months,
and sheds its &et mat at ten
weeks old, and its next mat at three
months old, and again at the age of
,six months.
As may be judged from the shows
and prizes offered, a mouse hae its
points. The mouse should, be in
length from seven to eight inches
from top of nose to end of tail, with
long, clean head, not too fine or
pointed at the nese; the eyes should
be large, bold and prominent, the
ears large encltulip shaped, free
from ereases, carried erect, with
plenty of width between them.
The body should be long and slim,
a trifle arched over loin and racy in
appearance, the tail, which Aould
be free from kinks, should come
well oub of the back, and be thick
at the root -and gradually tapering
like a whip lash to a fine end, the
length being equal to that of the
mouse's body. The coat ehould be
-short, perfectly smooth, flossy and
sleek to the hand.

A. PRINCILLY MODEL,
Took Place of One Who Failed to
e,Reep An. Appointment.
• In Perk 'not long ago the Eng-
lish tabor of i prince, a ye -in -Ter sou
of a minor roya.1 hens°, took the
young man,. who had expressed a
wish to see something of the artis-
tic life ,of the city, to call upon an
American friend ea his ,etudio. No
notice had, been given of the eall,
and the artist' was found ae work
under difficulties., for his model had
failed to keep an appointment.
"Won't I do?" asked the prince.
"Please let me tryl It is the figure
• with the pointed- pistol you are
working co, is it mot? Well, I am
a seldier; I ought toe able to pose
for that, and I should be delighted
to feel I had really -helped en artist
paint a 'picture."
• He was SO eager that the Ameri-
can coasenMcl, draped the military
cloak upon his shoulders, posed
him, and fell to work. Once or
twice he inquired of him politely if
he were not tired, to which the
prince—although he was—replied
stoutly that he was not; then the
artist forgot all about him in the
eider of work. But the pose was
wearisoino, • and presently the ex-
tended arm with the pistol showed
the strain.
"For heavens' sake,,, man, don't
wobble so!" cried the forgetful ar-
tist, sharply. "Hold your arm!
You're not supposed to be ehooting
circles, in a barn, door 1"
The prince burst into laughter,
in which his scandalized tutor and
apologetic host presently joined.
"Give me a little rest and an-
other trial, and I will promise not
to wobble till yOu have finished my
pistol hand," said the prince, good-
naturedly, and he kept his word.

famous French painter, Decamps,
onee worked, and possibly, as his
American successor pointed out,
that in which had occurred another

FOX A JAPANESE HORROR.
In Japanese legend the fax is -con-
sidered a wizard of the blackest
type, wielding demoniacal powers,
meeber of allelic evil magic that can
do harm to man. Foxes enter into
demoniac possession of human be-
ings and work all the wickednees,
and more, that was ascribed to the
witches and warlocks of the Middle
Ages in Europe. They live for many
centuries, and et the age of 1,000
years- they become white. acquire
nine tails and have enermous pew-
ees. Every fox is to be der:seed,
but the worst of all is the maitiex,
which can assume the appearance,
voice and manner of any human be-
ing at a moment's notice. The ex-
termination of all such oreatures
was a sacred duty of every knight
errant in ancient fable.
