A Marvelous Invention A gas range that can be changed' to a coal range in three seconds The Champion Interchange- able can be changed from a gas range to a coal or wood range in three seconds. There isn't a single bolt to remove or a screw to turn. The operation is so easy a child can do it. In natural gas districts, where gas is liable to fail any time, the owner of the Cham- pion always has a good coal range to rely on. No other range like the Champion--the most convenient range in the world. Takes the place of two ranges (gas and coal), thus saving room in the kitchen.

TRAINING FOR RACE >, 2c =| : : PREPARING OXFORD AND CAM-| i BRIDGE BOAT CREWS. | Great Advances Made Between the Races of 1829 and the One to Come Off in the Easter Vacation in 1910. {| More than eighty years ago--names { ly, in 1829--the University of Cam- bridge challenged the University of Oxford to row a match at or near London, each in an eight-oared bogt, during the ensuing Easter vacation and the inter-university race of 1910 is almost incredible. In the first place, the boats used were entirely dif- ferent from modern racing craft. They were called cutters, and were about 15 feet shorter than the boats used to- day. They were about as wide again, very stiff, and, of course, unprovided with either outriggers Jr sliding seats. On the other hand, they were built with keels running the whole lengts from bow. to stern. Instead of "shorts," the combatants wore canvas trousers. Oxford were blue-and-white striped jerseys and black straw hats with a broad blue ribbon. The Cambridge * color was pink instead of the now familiar pale blue t was not until 1839 that the crews definitely adopted the two shades of blug which have given us the familiar phrase, the "Battle of the Blues." In 1839 the Cambridge men wore "shorts" for the first time. The crews still rowed in cutters. Oxford's boat, known zs the Isis," was 52 feet long, as against the 63 feet of the modern eight-oar. She was very beautiful to look at, being painted in white and blue picked out with gold, and bear. ing the university arms on her rud- der a Cambridge cutter was built of oak! The Oxford University Boating Club was founded im 1839, and the Cam- bridge Club had been in flourishing existence since 1829. In 1840 the Ox- ford Club sent its first challenge to Cambridge for a race from Westmin- ster to Putney. But the oddest stipu- lation was made in this letter of challenge. Oxford desired that none but undergraduates should row. Cam- bridge would have none of this, and, eventually, Oxford waived their de- inand, and the race was arranged, and rowed. It was won by Cambridge by the narrow margin of three-quarters of a length In those early days there was little or no policing of river traffie during the race, and excursion steamers be- haved in the most scandalous fashion. In 1545, for the first time, the course chosen was Putney Bridge to Mort- lzke Church. It was a very cold day, and the race had hardly started be- fore a steamer, rushing past the Cam- bridge boat, rolled her so badly that No. 7's oar was unshipped, and Ox- ford went ahead. But Cambridge steadied in wonderful fashion, and actually drew clear in a little more than half a mile. Their coxswain was 30 overjoyed that he hurled his hat into the water. Cambridge eventual- ly won easily by about half a minute. During this same race the Oxford Rooms bost, carrying the crew's boots and jerseys, was swamped and sunk by a steamer off Hammersmith. In 1859 the race was rowed in a gale of snow and rain, and Cambridge, fait full of water at the start, fell behind. No fewer than four steamers came rushing past her in rapid suceession, swamping and sinking her with their wash. I the umpire had not been able to throw life-buoys to the crew, some of them would certainly have been drowned. New Guinea's People. The savages of British New Guinea are an entertaining sort of people. Speaking at the London Colonial So- ciety recently Mr. A. H. Dunning gave an amusing account of his ad- ventures among these untamed British subjects, one of his stories relating to a bottle of strong smelling salts. The first man who smelt, undeg the impression that it was a "white fan's love charm," was so startled that he fetched a friend to try. Then they formed the salts into a sort of trust, and scoured the neighborhood for re. cruits. Nobody gave the show away. They brought new people up one after the other, propped them up against a tree, and sat round like Christy Min- strels, to wait for the result. Kissing or fondling added Mr. Dunning, was unknown in New Guinea until the ad- vent of the missionaries. These were seen kissing the children, and the cus. toni spread. Having been kissed by oily natives, he preferred the old style of salutation. * "Anti-Sosh.™ Bir George Reid, the first High Commissioner of the Australian Com- monwealth, who has been paying a visit to England, and who was nick- named "Anti-Sosh" by The Sydney Builetin, because of his uncompromis- ing attitude towards Socialism, was born sixty-five years ago in Renfrew- shire. He was taken to Australia by his parents when quite a child, and uitimdtely became a barrister, build- ing up one of the most lucrative tices in the wealth. The ler does not stand much chance with Sir George. "If you were my hus- band 1'd give you poison!" ted a woman Socialist at a political meet- ing.

Their | composition. is a perfect fusdon of one-half fiuty earth, one-quarter lire and olay, one-quarter almost pure iron, each pillar being divided into regular lengths or joints which veme together as a perfect natural ball and socket union, Although to be found in small de-| tachments (imbedded in the clifs, | sands, ete.) for some distarve alorg| the shore, the principal aggregatians forming the Causeway proper consist of three projections or tongues known as little, middle and grand causeways These singular columns are of differ ent jongths and present an a¥tonish- ing appearance as they stand, in army of at least 40,000 strong mar- shaled on' the shores of Erin as if ever ready to do battle with the ris ing tide.

It burst asunder at sight of me, and revealed a perspiring eivilian "bubby" dancing, as it seemed, a vig- orous two-step with a large and in- ebriated Territorial, belonging to a corps encamped some three miles away Spotting my police badge, my com- rade in blue called on me to partici pate.

In early days I had been something of a boxer, and to my knowledge of the fistic art I attribute the fact that at the end of hall an hour 1 had skull- dragged my prisoner some forty yards across the marine parade and immur- ed him temporarily in a bathing- machine. My own piquet happened along just then, and I was able to consign my prisoner to their care Next night, on returning to camp, after seeing the "houses" closed, 1 found the guard-tent in a state of siege with another inebriated speci- men, crawling reund on his hands and knees, trying to fight his way out under the brailing, and the guard out- side frustrating his endeavors with tent-pegs aud mallet handles. 1 demanded to know whether the prisoner had been searched according to regulation, and deprived of his boots and belt. The corporal said he had not.

The famous quarterly reviewer, Mr. Abraham Hayward of London, once thought that he should like to have some ancestors. So he walked to War- dour street, where one can generally Bick up an ancestor or two of the Jromwellian, - Queen Anne or early Georgian period. Selecting a portrait of a cavalier in half armor, with fea- tures not quite unlike his own, Mr. Hayward made a bid for it, but, deem- ing the price asked too high, he went his way A fortnight after, the ancestral fev- er coming strongly upon him, he went again to Wardour street, prepared to pay the dealer his price. Fhe picture was sold. A few days later Mr. Hay- ward went to dine with Lord Hough- ton and was astonished to see the pie- ture in the dining-room. Seeing that it atbracted his guest's attention, Lord Houghton said "Very good picture, that; came into my bands in a curious way: portrait of a Milnes of the Commonwealth pe- riod--an ancestor of mine." "Indeed!" said Mr. Hayward. "He was very near being an ancestor of mine." Tired of Selling Books.
