Time is an estate that will proâ€" duce nothing without culture, but will always abundantly repay the labors of industry.â€"Johnstone. ~ _ A man who lives only for himself has not begun to diveâ€"has yet to learn his use, and his real pleasure, too, in the world.â€"Woodrow Wilâ€" It is in those whose natural imâ€" pulse it is to recognize merit that the faculty of true criticism is most vigilant.â€"Lord Dufferin. Without adversity a man hardly knows whether he is honest or not. â€"Fielding. Charity is the calling of a lady ; the care of the pnoor is her profesâ€" sion.â€"Hannah More, If you live according to Nature you will never be poor ; if according to opinion you will never be rich.â€" Swimming is a splendid sport ; it develops muscle rarely used in other sports and its usefulness is beyond question. _ Yet comparaâ€" tively few persons learn to swim. There are sailors who have spent many years on the water, but are unable to keep afloat when sudâ€" denly cast into the element with which they ought to be thoroughly acquainted. Drownings are far too numerous ; knowledge of how to swim would greatly lessen their number. May the time soon come when every _ child who passes through the public schools will have learned how to swim. ‘"‘To ride, to shoot and to speak the truth"‘ was the ancient Persian ideal of education. _ Needless to say, this was for boys only ; girls in this day fare better than when the maxim was made. They are taught to exercise as well as to develop their brains nowadays. Alike boys and girls ought to learn to swim, and the public should provide means of teaching that most valuable and pleasurable accomplishment. the publ®sehoors® ’.o-!’Piusburgb, and Dr. Watson L. Savage is quoted as saying that he will see to it that every child in the city i taught to swim. This is a ste, in public education that deserves the hearty approval of every parent and every seeker of the public welâ€" fare. Still, there is a limit to the parâ€" ticular rule of reason that Sir Richard would establish. Youth is not equipped for the severest reaâ€" soning processes, and while it is taking its preliminary exercise it eannot afford to look too scornfulâ€" ly upon mere acquisition. What we acquire between the ages of 10 and 20 comes easiest and stays longest. With most of us the putting off in that period means not merely postâ€" ponement but a complete shutting out. The dangers of exclusion are not all confined to the older trainâ€" ing, and in these discussions we should guard against overe:<phaâ€" sis at any point. JPE . This criticism is in line with much that is being written, but it should not be assumed from it that there has been no change or that the changes have been provokingly slow. For, as a matter of fact, a revolution has taken place in the last thirty years and it has peneâ€" trated even the most conservative of institutions. _ Unquestionably, moreover, it is a response to the demands of human experience. _ Bir Richard recognizes the fact that there are different kinds of success and says that he does not underestimate the cultural worth of an academic course, but he adds that a purely academic scholarship is not what is required by men and women who are to grapple with practical affairs; that too many university graduates have not been educated with a definite aim, and that much of the curriculum of the ordinary student is futile because it is accepted by him as the concluâ€" sions of some one else and not diâ€" gested and absorbed by a process of mental effort on his own part. Richard McBride, the prime minisâ€" ter of British Columbia, says that those seltâ€"made men who regret the meagerness of their early schoolâ€" ing probably would not have achieved success if they had been eollegeâ€"trained. NOTES ANDCOMMENT S It takes a brave man in these days â€" to deftend the old college training, which is fiercely attacked by countless numbers of assailants both at home and abroad. There are even intimations that it was worse than nothing, as when Bir qurse xt swimming hâ€"» been Cx The acquired n»dnr--i Grains of Gold. ‘"Life that is all pleasure isl worthless. Life that is all drudgâ€"| ery is just as bad," says Dr. Elizaâ€" beth Chesser. ‘"People who get out of the habit of enjoyment get deâ€" pressed in vitality and age more rapidly. There is nothing like the habit of laughter for keeping peoâ€" ple young and healthy." | Times of great disaster afford an exceptional opportunity for the person with the ambition to start life all over again. Many more peoâ€" ple "went down‘"‘ in the Titanic than were on board. As the vears have passed it has become a much more difficult task for people to cut themselves entireâ€" ly adrift from the circle in which they have lived. _ Wireless teleâ€" graphy, better police organization, and, above all, the newspaper picâ€" tures have made the path of those who are anxious to disappear no easy matter. More people are disâ€" covered toâ€"day in their efforts to vanish than was the case a few years ago.. Another _ celebrated disappearâ€" ance of the past was that of Mr. Jasper Pyne, M.P. for West Waterâ€" ford, who took a ticket for Ireland and was never seen or heard of again. The disappearance of Griâ€" maldi‘s brother was equally mysâ€" terious. Grimaldi was playing at Drury Lane in the year 1803. His brother called for him at the stage door and together they went to the greenroom. Grimaldi le‘t him there for a moment to talk to some friends. When he returned his broâ€" ther had gone. Grimaldi never saw him again. It was suggested then that the girl fabricated the story in order to avert punishment. _ Thero seems little doubt that neurotic young girls of toâ€"day who leave home in a state of hysteria resort to a similar plan to avert parental wrath. Sick of Formality. An interesting case of past years, in which boredom with the convenâ€" tialities of society caused a man to vanish was that of Waring, who figured in a poem of Robert Brownâ€" ing, entitled ‘"What‘s Become of Waring ?!"‘ Waring was a great figâ€" ure in the social life of the time. One day he was absent from his usual haunts. He was never heard of nor seen by friends for some twenty years. Then a friend disâ€" covered him by chance abroad, and Waring explained that he had simâ€" ply become sick to death of the reâ€" strictions which social etiquette and formality placed upon his moveâ€" ments. ] Early in tbe eighteenth century a @irl named Elizabeth Canning disâ€" 'appeared from her home and evadâ€" ed all efforts to discover her. She retyr«ed a!u-ufi-fltr story %bu. tkemp=rms had stolen her. For this certain gipsies in the disâ€" trict vere brought to trial, and two of them were sentenced to death. | After further investigations pendâ€" ing the execution they were reâ€" prieved and Elizabeth herself was charged with perjury. She was found guilty and sentenced to transportation for a period of seâ€" ven yvears. The public has been alarmed of late at the number of young girls who have figured among the reportâ€" ed missing. In a proportion of these cases there may be real cause for apprehension. But the police are satisfied that in the majority the disappearnce is intentional, beâ€" ing the outcome of a craving on the part of the modern young girl for adventure. These adventures are naturally surrounded with grave dangers for those who take part in them. But more often than not the missing are discovered and placed in the care of their relatives. In order to avoid very just admonition the culprit often resorts to inventâ€" ing an "abductor." Neither is this an entirely modern feature. Loss of memory plays a very large part. Doctors who have studied this enurious mental state have put it down to the delirium of speed which is such a factor in modern life. Under the great strain of nerâ€" vous tension the brain breaks down temporarily and the mind becomes a blank. In 1911 28,958% persons were reâ€" ported missing. Of these 10,416 were discovered by the police and 18,075 returned on their own acâ€" count or were traced through the efforts of friends and relatives. This leaves a total of 467 still unacâ€" counted for. _ Taking an average over the six years, one person in London every day has vanished neâ€" ver to be seen or heard of again. These are cold official figures. They convey nothing of the deep romance surrounding many of the individual cases. ily to their relatives or being resâ€" tored to them by the police. But the most remarkable thing about these figures is the fact that 3,260 people have absolutely vanished. Their stories may never be known. It is as though the population of a village had entirely disappeared in the short space of six years. Since the year 1907 Scotland Yard returns show that altogether 170,â€" 472 people have been reported missâ€" ing in the Metropolitan (London, England) Police area.

Big drops of sweat stood on his forchead as he steadily worked up, up, and held with one hand while he dug the other into the moss above. Half of his body finally rested on the edge. while the other half hung in space without a footâ€" hold. It seemed impossible to move from that position until he saw an alder stem, an inch in diameter, that had grown on the little flat bench apparently for the purposa of giving help on this occasion. He tried its strength. It enabled him to pull himselfâ€"up and lie on the narrow bed of moss, where he thought of childhood days, friends far away, and his own folly. f There was but one way out, and that was along a sixâ€"inch shelf about one hundred feet to the westâ€" ward that ended on the sloping ridge.

There appeared to be a small beneh on top of this wall, on which he might rest if he could reach it. He sat for a few moments on a large rock that lay at the foot of the wall ; then with his knife he cut niches for finger and toeâ€"holds. Holding on by these, he climbed up and dugi a sort of trench through the moss on the rim above, through which he might draw his body. Then he deâ€" scended to the rock for a long rest before making the final effort. Let beiow him. He felt a sickness come over him, so he turned his gaze to the rock wall, a foot from his face.

After supper, one of the trio tried to climb a ledge of white spar that could be plainly seen from the camp. After an hour‘s hard work, he reached the place, but it proved disappointing. He then saw that he could not descend without eyes in his toes. If he could ascend a few hundred feet, he might lower himself down a draw by the help of scattering alder brush. He spent another hour in getting to that place, only to discover a precipice in the path he had expected to deâ€" seend.

It is true that the physical strength of man is greater than woman‘s, but a woâ€" man‘s power of endurance is more robust. One reason for this is that woâ€" man possesses a finer perception of her power of endurance than a man, and when her perception warns her of fatigue, she stops.

Ordinarily the time taken up by your nerves and muscles before a picture can be snapped by the camâ€" era suffices, for the thing really to oceur. If, however, there was no resistance in your muscles and tisâ€" sues and you could do the impossiâ€" ble and snap a kodak the instant you think that you see a horse galâ€" lop, a man fall, or a car stop, why you would really have a photograph of what seemed to have happened a moment before.
