'Who dare discount the future of nny "youth ? 'Nelson's was most unpromis- ing. He was not robust, and it was with some misgiving that Mis uncle took him into his keeping and ap- prenticed him in the navy. And what soul, wpirit, zeml, intensity he put into the servic: !" He rose in rank | rapidly until he became a captain shortly after the attainment of his majority, (ad : At St. Vincent he astonished his superiors and countrymen by. his skill end daring. In a night attack on the Spanish at Teneriffe he was struck by grape shot and lost his | right arm. In the battle of the Nile he annihilat- ed the French navy and made the, British fleet the mistress of the sea. In the Fight of Copenhagen, though lacking an eye and. an arm, he ig- nored the signal to retreat and de feated the Danes with tremendous loss. In 1805 he fought his last great bat: tle With the French and Spanish, chasing them across the Atlantic and. back, and coming into a collision on October 21st, and out of it with sal: vation to England and Europe. It was in this great sea conflict that Nelson coined the phrase that has been recited so often as an encourage. ment and example : "England expects every man this day to do his duty." When signalled to his fleet it elicited loud and prolonged cheering. It stim- ulated the navy to perform the great- est of all feats, to fill the heart of Nelson' with gratitude as ho died, that day on board the Victory, and to in- spive his countrymen through all the changes of succeeding years. Trafalgar is to-day in England, and in Canada, the . theme of song and sentiment, all calculated to strengthen the patriotism of the people and nourish their love of heroism.

Pretty oA Reform A¢ Hand. Walter Wellman, the correspondent, well known the writer of the day and in an educational way, has an article in the Reviews of Reviews which everyone should read. Mr--Wellman™ has opened fire upon tho deferred dividend, the feature of life msurance which is in suclr bad odor as result of the investigation which is now going on in New York, The plau is to give the policyholder the benefit of certain dividends which are "estimated" and the disappoint: ment comes when the estimate are verified. The company, © say the Mutual Life, fail to offer * the insurant any- thing like amount he was promised, and when this person demands an ex- planation he fails to get it. If he is persistent he will get some answer, and usually it is in cssence that the money mwarket has beon depressed, that investments have not turned out interest has Now the policyholder gots another view of the case. He realizes that there has been a serious leak, that the funds that - should have gone in dividends were. wasted, millions of them, in junketings, in legislation, in grafting of the most disroputable kind. "What chance would a man have," | says Wellman, "to secure good results from a deposit of $40 in the savings bank if the solicitor who induces him to make the deposit were to get filty per cont. of the first yvar's deposit for nierely carrying the money down to the bank, and then the general agent were to get seven and one-half per cent. of each subsequent deposit for a like service, and if the bank management wero to cost twenty-five per cont, of all deposits vach your ?

The plan of the future must be to have an honest account ing of the money, and to pay the people thei? due more rapidly. "At present," Mr. Wellman adds, "the companies bave an enormous loaning parifying the Jamour for of: power and are piling up assets at the rate of over $00,000,000 yearly.
