vincing power. p The service of song was of

interest of the occasion. The church was

submarine boat Holland wire taken from her
senseless the other day, hiving been over-
come by gas from a leaking reservoir, The
six men comprising the crew remembe noth-

The boat, after a series of submarine. teats,
came to a stop in her dock, at Green Pert,
L. I., and as no one' appeared from the in-
side of the vessel men on the wharf forded
open her port. Gas rushed out. Rescuers
descended and brought up the unconscious
crew. The men quickly recovered.
HE KNOWS HOW TO SWIM.
You May Learn a Few Tricks Fro
the Bullfrog.
"A swIminer, no matter Whether he in
a beginner or an expert, cannot imprOye
upon the advice Of his great-g-randfather,
which is to go to a brook or swamp aid
study the manner and methods of tilos
frog," remarked an ex -Champion recently.
"The most expert swimmers in the world
are tyros compared to the laziest bull-
frogs. The difficulty with all1 swimmOs
is that they spoil the effect of the strole
by the recovery.
"When a frog starts off he draws his
legs carefully up under him until he is
in the position of a man sitting on his
'haunches. Then he suddenly gives a
mighty spring in the water, kicking, his
legs out, not behind him, but ahnoist
- directly sidewise. After the kick his legs
are slowly drawn together by his tnoticin
through the water until they hang out be-.
hind him in a perfectlY rigid form. Evely
toe of his web feet is held out as straight
as an arrow, and then nothing retards his
motion through the water. He will lie
in this position until every bit of the mo-
mentum is lost -that is, until he has gone
as far as the force of the kick will send
him through the water. Then' again he
slowly and carefully draws his legs in
and repeats the performance.
"You will notice that in drawing- the
lege up to his hody for ; second kiels tly•
trOg., recedes a little. This is owing ter
the action of the upper leg on the *at%
and it corresponds exactly with the
similar movement on. the part of a man.
The first thing a frog does is to give his
body a good start through the 'water, and
he holds himself in such a way that he
gets the whole value of the stroke.
"A man starts outwitls just such a kick
or thre
but after he has gone fee
he will begin to swing his kande forwari
ter() e
or draw up lets lege in such fashion that
thsY offset the whole value of his vitlis.
°He stops is own boo halithe way -be-

Two Handsome Gifts.
Without doubt the publishers of the
FAMILY HERALD and WEEKLY STAR
of Montreal have this' year excelled them -
elves. The two pictures, "Battle of Alma,"
in colours, and "Pussy Willows," are now
being distributed to subscribers, and we
must -say they are most attractive, The
publishers of the FAMILY HERALD and
WEEKLY STAR know no limit in improv-
ing that great paper to please its readers.
That wonderful paper, including both the
pictures, for One Dollar a year is certainly
a record breaker, and every home in Canada
should take advantage of it.

MONTREAL, October, 17th. -There were
larger numbers of pretty good cattle on the
market to -nay than has been the case for
some time past, and there were also a few
really fine beeves among the offerings, but
prices shoW no signs of improvement, pretty
good cattle being lower in price than on any
previous day this season. Mr. G. Martel
bought a pair of choice cattle at 410 per
pound, two others at 41c, and three more at
4110 per pound. Forty-eight pretty good
steers, averaging 1,500 pounds, were bought
for shipment to Britain at 40' per pound.
The butchers paid from 3/ to a little over 4.3
for pretty good cattle, and common stook
sold at from 2 to 3e per pound: A consid-
erable number of the cattle will not be sold
to -day. Calves less than ten weeks old sold
at from 4 to Sc per pound. Shippers paid
no per pound for good large sheep. Good
lambs sold in lots- at from n to 40 per
pound, and the common lambs at about 3-io
per pound, There were not many fat hogs
on sale to -day, but there is not much de-
mand for them, and straight lots of hogs,
weighed off the cars, sell at about 4ic per
per pound.
TORONTO, October 18th. -Trade was de-
cidedly dull on the cattle market to -day,
With prices from 25 to 50c lower. With
rates for shipping advancing ten and fifteen
shillings per- head, due to limited vessel
space, export cattle are not -wanted at any
price, In sympathy with a poor demand
for exporters, prices for butchers' cattle are
correspondingly tow. The mild weather
also has contributed to a poor market for
butcher cattle, as only enough is required
to carry the buyers from day to day. The
top price for choicest butcher cattle to -day
was not higher than $4 down to $2.50.
Light stockers were low, going from $2,25
to $3. Heavy feeders were worth from
$3.25 to $3,75. 'Sheep were steady at $3.25
to $3.35, and lambs, $3.75 to $4. About
1,000 hogs were delivered, the price for best
selections are $4.37i. We quote: Export
cattle, choice, per cwt., $4.25 to $4.50 '• ex-
port cattle, light, per cwt.'$4 to $4.50 ;
good butchers' cattle, $4 to $4,65 ; medium
mixed butchers' cattle per cwt., $3.25 to
