' Ja,ck Tar" has shared in little prize money since the days of Nelson, except except when he has been engaged in the capture of slavers on the east and west coasts of Africa. In the days when we sailed the Spanish Main, however; considerable fortunes fortunes were secured in the way of loot by officers and men. The biggest haul of prize money on record, having regard to the in- individual shares, occurred dn 1761, when the British frigates Actaeou and Favorite captured a Spanish galleon. On dividing up " the loot the shares worked out at follows : Captains, £65,000 ; lieutenants, £13,000; warrant officers, £4,336; petty officers, £l,800, and seamen and marines, £485. It is recorded that the jolly tars of the two frigates had an uproarious uproarious times in Portsmouth, and put on such airs that they actually formed a club, one rule being that every sailor should wear a gold- laced hat. Another instance of the capture of treasure ships somewhat approached approached the level of the foregoing. On Oct. 16th, 1799, four British frig-' ates--the Naiad, Ethalion, Triton and Alemene--chased and captured the Spanish frigates Thetis and Santa Santa Brigida. On overhauling the prizes a veritable Tom Tiddler's ground was brought to light, and it required the services of sixty-four artillery wagons to convey the treasure from Plymouth Hoe to the Citadel. The following were the individual individual shares of the luckv. recipients recipients : Captains, £40,730 ; lieutenants, lieutenants, £5,091 ; warrant officers, £2,- 968 ; petty officers, £791 ; and seamen seamen and marines, £182. During these regular operations against the Spaniards, Drake secured secured for his crews many thousands of pounds in the way of prize money and naturally had no difficulty in getting men for his voyages, a remark remark which also applies to Lord Cochrane, afterwards the Earl of Dundonald, who, when in command of the thirtv-eight-gun frigate Pal-, las was the dread of the French and Spanish mercantile marine. He sent his prizes into Plymouth in rapid succession, says The Westminster Gazette, and was regarded by the sailors as such a friend in the way of prize money, that he was always inundated with applications from men who wanted to join his ship. One must be born under an alien yoke to understand what the love of ones fatherland is. Until the- last year the Greeks may have gained little in'the estimation of the world, since a small portion of them wrenched themselves free from the Turkish 3 r oke. But those who condemn condemn them must remember that since the time of Alexander the Great the Greeks have passed from one conqueror to another--escaping Scolding women are less ridiculous ridiculous than swearing men.

At last they fell under the yoke of a race which neither could learn their language nor cared for their civilization, and for 4Ô0 years they dwelled under this Asiatic dominion, writes De- metr-a Veka. On this, night in the brigand's cave, I understood the pow r er of Greece had over her sons. These men were nothing but cutthroats. They would kill or mutilate a man for money, yet as they sang the songs of those other, more glorious brigands, who had striven for years in desperate fighting - against the conquerors of their race, they seemed to be touched by something ennobling. Their faces shone with that light which comes * from the holiest of loves--patriotism!. They sang with fervor and when they came to the parts relating victories victories over the Turks, they clapped their hands and sihouted, "So ! so !' From one song they passed to another, another, while the lamb ever turned in time to the music, and men brought chestnuts, potatoes and onions, and • roasted them in the edge of the smaller fire--always singing. Of a sudden one man broke into a gay little song of the monasteries monasteries : "How they rubbed the pepper, those devilish monks !" To the giddy words and the infectious infectious tune, a dozen men sprang to their feet. They held out their handkerchiefs to each other, and instantly there was a garfand of ^dancing brigands about the fire. It was our national dance, the Syrto, and they went through it with gusto and passion. By the time that was over, the lamb was cooked. We were invitéd to sit round in a circle ; the meat was torn apart with the hands, and a piece dealt to each person. Each brigand crossed himself three times, and then fell to, ravenously. ravenously. I enjoyed my dinner as much as they. My poor brother pretended pretended to. As I learned afterwards, he was afraid the brigands would kill usTrom metre annoyance when they discovered that we were not the rich pair they believed they*had in their possession. The meal was over, the brigands crossed themselves again devoutly, and thanked God and His- Son C-hri t, for the protection they had hitherto, extended to them. . Then they began to talk of their exploits. Far from being conscience-stricken, or in any way ashamed of their profession, profession, they gloried in it; and being being in constant warfare with the Turkish soldiers, they felt a really patriotic pride in their. manner of life. They told of running a certain Turkish officer through the heart without the slightest pity for thé man, or shame of the deed. Was he ^ I not a Turk, their arch enemy, anc [the enemy of their racé? Their point of view on the ethics of life was quite original to me, and as they boasted of the things they had done something barbaric in me responded responded to their recitals. I loved them, and as for their leader, he was a~real hero to me. Again they passed from themselves themselves to the heroic period of the Armateloi and ICleftai, when brigandage brigandage attained its apotheosis. After the fall of Constantinople, the Greeks were powerless against the Turks. The other powers of Europe, Europe, during 200 years,, were too frightened to think of more than saving their own skins ; and when, later, they did interfere in behalf of the Christians under the Ottoman Ottoman 3"oke, they did so only as an excuse for their personal gain. Thus the Greeks had to depend o-n themselves, and in time the flower of Greek manhood' took to the mountains. Then the wrongs done by the Turks, to their weak and defenseless fellow countrymen, were fiercely and oruta'lly punished by these brigands. It was these Armtaeloi and KLeftai who put an end to the human tax which- the Greeks to been forced to pay the conqueror. If a little girl was taken taken by force from a Greek home, the brigands would fall upon a Turkish village and avenge the wrong on the women and children of the Turks. It was a very rough form of justice justice ; but gradually the Turks began began to fear the brigands, and in this fear they became more considerate toward the Greeks. That period, with all its ferocity and unspeakable brutality, was the period of modern Greek chivalry ; for those men did not attack for money. ' They levied on the people merely for enough to live ; but when they descended o-n them as avengers of ' the countrymen's wrongs they were merciless--and they did rob the Turkish garrisons. In the Revolution of 1821, miost of the powder used by the Greeks was Turkish powder, and many a Turk died by a gun he oncefhad carried. «XTTHEN the food reaches the stomach it is subjected to a peculiar!

He Real-Life Romance of Royal Family's Relation. It isn't often that- a favorite of kings and emperors comes down to the level of middle-class medioc rity, but it does happen sometimes Claire von Whllenstein, Baroness von Schonberg, and now Countess Sfcernau zu Hohenau, has had a most remarkable career. To-day the Countess draws teeth almost under the shadow of the Kaiser's palace in Berlin, and the German royalties must be intensely, chagrined to find one of their own relation® actually earning her living living under their "very eyes. Nor can they be ignorant of the fact, for on the door of the flat- in the Nu- remburge-r Plat-z there is the bold inscription in brass: "Hohenau, Dentist." As "Hôhe" signifies royal descent, descent, just ias Fitz does, in a less degree, in Great Britain, the brass plate excites no end of interest in the lady bearing this illustrious "handle." The now famous lady dentist of Berlin became a relation of both the German and British royalties a year or two ago, -when she was married in London by special special license to Count Wenzel Ster- nau "zu Hohenau. - Claire von Wallenstein is the daughter of 'a rich Hungarian family family of high position. Blessed with unusual good looks, at 18 years old she was married to the Baron von Schonberg. Youth, beauty and wealth soon made the young Baroness Baroness von Schonberg one of the most honored hostesses in Vienna. She became involved, however, in politics, and lost the Emperor's favor. favor. Her fortune was confiscated, so the story goes, and she was banished. banished. Her husband, the Baron von Schonberg, quickly divorced her, and she went to Switzerland. She won the beauty prize at Monte Carlo Carlo and a* the Concours Hippique at Brussels ; then went to Londoji, where Count Hohenau fell in love with her, married her, and was sent by his relations to a "sana- Her Alibi. Much to the curious little girl's disgust, her elder sister and her girl friends had quickly closed the door of the back parlor before she could wedge her small self in among them.

"Dodo!" she called in staccato tones, as she knocked once again. "'Tain'-t me! it's mamma!" Among the more obvious melancholy melancholy features of the European war the peculiar position of the Jew is characterized by a pathos all its own. In Toronto we have seen a wealthy Jew offer to raise a regiment regiment of 1,000 Hebrews to fight for the British flag, and .among the volunteers volunteers now in Vâlcarbier camp are many descendants of Abraham. His patriotism in the "various countries of his birth or adoption," remarks-^the St. Louis Modern View impels him to risk life and limb in time.of war even though _ it mean that 'Jew will be fighting against Jew." But in a crisis such as the present, -says the editor, 'even the strong band of union which exist among our people, racially racially and religiously, is severed," yet he can not repress a feeling of regret that the -circumstances oblige oblige "hundreds of thousands of Jews" to march under the standard of their persecutor Russia. Elsewhere Elsewhere it is different, he explains, and the Jew who falls in battle realizes that he falls for a country which will hold his memory _ ' 'in grateful remembrance." This is as it should Ibe, we read, because : "The Jew is an integral part of every nation whose citizenship he enjoys. This he has always felt and always demonstrated. In countries countries where data-are available, the war records show it- clearly. In Germany, for instance, where the Jew has been permitted to. render military service since March 11, 1812, there were 731 Jews and one Jewess, Esther Manuel, in the German German Army during the wars of 1813- 15. In the war of 1866 the number of Jewish soldiers in the German ft.nmy was 1,025, while the number of Jews serving in" the German army during the Franco-Prussian war of 1870-71 was 4,492, of which number 448 were killed or wounded and 373 decorated in the war annals annals of other European countries as France, Austria, and Italy.- In the last-named _ country, where Jewish emancipation dates back only to the year 1848, during the war of 1866 when the entire Jewish population of Italy was 36,000, there w T ere 380 Jews in the army." An Ironical Situation. In France or in Germany, however, however, the writer goes on to 'say, the Jews fight for "the standing and the standards of^ their" respective countries," but he asks, what are the Jews in the" Russian army fighting fighting for ? And he adds : The irony of the situation is also observed by the Chicago Reform Advocate, which commends to our thoughtful consideration the fact that in one of the warring States," Russia, "there are six millions of men and women who have 'been, reduced reduced to the condition of rightless persons, who must- pay for the enjoyment enjoyment of human rights as if they were privileges granted by a benevolent benevolent sovereign to men and women worthy of no consideration, bub who will be expected . ... to stand forth and bravely and 'with enthusiasm enthusiasm fight- the cause of the Romanoff Romanoff dynasty." And tihe writer continues continues : No Chance to Rise. "They know that they may fight as valiantly, as they- do who have home and right to fight for yet from the ranks they may never rise. They know that others of their blood may volunteer, -because of their skill and training, won only under difficulties and under the hate of the bureaucracy to bring healing and life to the -broken on the battlefield, but. will be answered. answered. as indeed they have been answered answered before, that Jews are not wanted as..physicians. But strangely strangely enough when the call comes they will respond. They responded before before when Russia, fought its last war. And they will fight again with all the strength and fire of their whole make-up. that their land and their armies be not- shamed before the world. - They will forget how th e i r lit tle a r my, ' th e i r Co s s ack s rode down defenceless men and women women and children, will forget- Kishi- neff and the authorities that might have stopped the fearful and unspeakable unspeakable outrages, but held back to let itihe mob satisfy its brutal thirst, but with a -Shma Yisroel and some Russian soldier song they wiill fight for the glory of the Little Little Father." "After all," concludes the writer, writer, "it may be quite useless -to argue argue with the hope of a near sol-u- y.

Gough, when he spoke his last words, "Young men, keep your record-clean." record-clean." Unclean life records bring unhappy memories. The world is full of men and women who dare not come face to face with their own souls. An industrious mechanic pinched himself in personal expenditure in order to purchase a -piano for two çf -his daughters. He was asked how his children appreciated the There would seem to be no more lowly service to which Jesus could have set 'Himself -than this of taking a towel and washing tihe feet of His disciples. What wonder that tihe impulsive Peter protested, and vowed, "Thou shalt never wash my feet !" And yet, just because of the peculiar nature of this act, was there nothing which Jesus could "have done which showed more impressively impressively the full meaning of His great gospel of love. More than onee He had detected in His followers followers that spirit of pride which held them aloof from the petty service or the demeaning task". They would not stoop, even if by doing so they could lift the fallen and support support the weak ! Therefore did the Master, on this last evening of His life, deliberately perform this lowest lowest of all menial labors, that He might leave them an example of humility which would at once Rebuke and Inspire Them. And still is this example needed t ati this late day! "All service is thé same with God," says Robert Browning, but assuredly it is not the same with men ! I am tempted to -doubt if there is any one trait which is more characteristic of even the best intentioned and highest minded folk than this of -refusing doubt, also, the chance to serve ie seen, but is passed by os unworthy of our character or standing. We seem to feel somehow or other that our first duty is to maintain "our dignitv " whatever that may mean, forgetting that in the last analysis there is no duty at all in life save that of making ourselves useful,_ of helping the brethren, of serving the Kingdom of God on earth! Is there something to be done which will lift a burden, cure an ill, further further a good,, make the world a sweeter and better place in which to live? What matters it, then, whether it is great or small, conspicuous conspicuous or inconspicuous, the deed of a king or the labor of a menia-l ! Do It For The Sake Of God! And the spirit of love in which you serve will glorify your labor and dignify you with the blessing of the Most High.
