Numerous landing stages occur along these shores from which a winding path leads up the sloping hill or along the water's edge to the several residences served "by this station.

But Finnish sajlors are proverbial wizards of the sta. This reputation has militated, strange as it may seem, to his material disadvantage for the Finnish sailor is regarded by sailors of other nationalities as too spooky and uncanny to become a desirable member of their crews. Instances are on record where the whole crew mu- tinied rather than go to sea with a Finn among them. Superstition plays a prominent part in the life of every sailor and "Jack Tar" is fully con vinced of the supernatural powers pos- sessed by every sailor Finn. 'No Sah," says the old colored cook in "Two Years Before the Mast," 'I've seen too much o' dem men to want to sce 'em board a ship. If dey can't have der own way dey'll play de deb- ble wid you." That Finnish sailors can 'do stunts' on the sea is unquestioned, though this is, of course, due rather to their consummate seamanship than to the possession of powers occult and mys- terious. Practically all of Finland lies in the angle Jormed by the Gulf of Bothnia striking off from the Baltic sea to the north and the Gulf of Finland arising from the same source and bearing al- most directly to the east. It will, therefore, be seen that ndarly all of Finland lies beyond the sixtieth de gree, north latitude--a region. corre sponding (o the latitude of Hudson Bay in North Americy and the pro- vinee of Kamchatka in | heen Asia.

The woman was removed to the hospital.
