To a soldier of the younger scnooi it seemed a preposter ous proceeding, and Sir Evelyn ven tured to criticise It. Sir James replied: "Toting man, have I not ordered you twice to hold yonr tongue? If I like to lead my skirmish ers, what the Is that to you?" Sir Evelyn replied. "Ten thousand par dons, sir, but it is the enemy's line In retreat you have been leading for the last ten miuutes."

That" all who are happy are equally hnppy Is not true. A peasant and a philosopher may be equally satisfied, but not equally hnppy. Happiness consists in the multiplicity of agree able consciousness.

It was in 1731 that Holland nar rowly escaped inundation along its coast because the timbers of the ea dikes In many parts were discovered to be quite unsound. The timely dis covery of the real condition of the dikes saved the country from an awfnl catastrophe, the full extent of which was comprehended by only a few Dutchmen. The timbers had been honeycombed i by the teredo, or shipworm. This j creature burrows Into any wood im mersed in sea water. It makes an entrance when young and digs chan nels along the grain of the wood, liv- ing and often dying in the timber. The ; worm grows in some localities to a length of twelve inches, its girth be- , ing one and a half inches, and the enrious thing ahont its whiplike body la Its eiceedinir tenderness. It cannot tiear Its own weight. It will break If subjected to any strain. It will burrow straight along the grain of the wood unless turned aside by a knot or nail, and. no matter how many of these worms may be burrow ing In the same piece of wood, they never run their channels Into one an other. By some marvelous instinct they keep clear of each other'a pre serves. We have seen a cross section of a log eighteen Inches in diameter, and we counted no fewer than 60C distinct burrows. Exchange.
