After three or four minutes Winnle returned to the room to say: "That's always the way.

About every ten minutes for the next hour he recefved a brief, vigorous lecture until he was almost worked up to the point where he thought of jumping through a window and taking his chances, when a man's step was heard. There was an "Oh, papal" from Miss Winnie in the hall, and Colonel Graves stalked In to ex- claim: "what in the devil is the matter here?"

John Strachan, the individual in! question, was one of the pioneer Aus- | tralian gold-miners; "mada his pile" he went to Melbourne as was the well-nigh universal practice amongst the "di in those days--in order it. There he fell in love with y Am- | brose, the pretty danghter of a well- to-do innkeeper. He would have mar- ried her forthwith, but hee parents objected, whereupon he and she set sail for the Bouthern Seas in a forty- foot cutter, and eventually settled on what is now known as Marion Island. Constituted "Effective Occupation." Here they lived many years and be- got sons and daughters and this was beld to constitute "effective oeeupa~ tion," when, some time afterwards, the question of the ownership of the Crozet and adjacent groups (to one of which Marion Island belongs) was raised in a semi-acute form between the Governments of France and Brit- am Pitcairn Island age of the British what similar fa Adams, a mutinous to the Bounty ma from Tahiti with chief, and others of followed his exa sailed into the sighted "an i rose like a great ® * and thereor ing their ship a wing looted her of all available The mutineers remained unknown in England until 1914 1 1 lental ly red then hoisted, but it was not u that Piteairn was formally annexed. | ne an appan- after a some- One John lor belonging Ar, TAN Away wife of a local messmates Pogether they wn, until they intain that af out of the settled, burn- 1} th } his | KING EDWARD A BARGAIN. | bid epee.

About 'a hundred years ago, the Orown lands, which 'then formed the chief source of revenue, were taken over by the nation, and they now bring in rather more than it costs the country to maintain the monarchy As to the curious maxim in English law that "the King can done wrong," Prof. Masterman explains that means that the law courts can take no cognizance of what the King dc ! but politically every actio ) King must be ranctioned by some per gon who ean do wrong, and who can ba punished for doing wror The King has to act through certain defi- nite channels, and the whol lish constitutional histor the contest to limit thos The position of the Er of to-day differs from that in the substitution of influence authority. ve | »" 1 € rlish g f the past for Devil 'Bird 6f Ceylon.
