His wife and child sat quite close to him talking loudly with some visitors, but this did not in the least disturb the old man at his devotions.

It was to Dis that their victory was due. Thé new shells, exploding with the least con: taet, produced enormous heat, which mel the hardest metals and pro- duced an immense volume of Joie: terious gases, which asphyxiated all who breathed them. Profiting by thid knowledge, continued Admiral Ger- minet, France should arm her ships with a gun-firing projectiles of high explosive capacity his gun eoukl not be the 13-in. gun with which the Dreadnought was armed. What was wanted was a large qusntity of ex! plosives in guns of a smaller calibre which could be fired rapidly.

Af the age of 60 five spinsters suo. ed in "getting off' in the Metro: polis last year. This is one of those interesting facts about the life of Lon- don which the patient statistical offi- cers of the London County Council dig out, and present once a year in a bulky volume entitled "YLondon Btas tistics." It will bring joy to many' a fluttering heart, and the light of! hope to faces framed in mob caps ringlets. Boy and girl marriages are not so common in London as among the industrial populations of the! north. Still, four girls of 15 were mar- ried last year. One joined a bachiey Jor of 26, another a man of 30, an two others wed husbands B56 years of thirteen girls riminy, F not be taken to mesn thal the two. boys shared the thirtéen girls between. them. Who those fifteen young per- sons married history does not record. At the age of 17 one hundred and twenty-two girls became wives, but only six boys took on the regponsi- bility of the head of a household. The most popular age for men to marry in London is 2%. The number who wed at thet age totalled 12,958, at 21 there were 12735; 15,343 women married at 21, and at 25 9508 Two bachelors at 60 and two at 65 got married Ak together there were 34.931 inarriages between spinsters and bachelors The advice, "Sammy, beware of the vidders," went unheeded by 1477 bachelors and 1,151 widowers Add ing to the foregoing figures the 2,099 between widowers and marrigges gpinsters we get 39,668 as the grand total of the weddings in London last year. There were only seven Quaker weddings, more than two-thirds of the marriages taking place in the Church of England and 8371 in register of- fices. Only 1,887 couples were. mar ried in Nonconformist chapels. King Goes Deer-Stalking! | "There is a very good story just to hand concerning the large * toyal' stag that the King shot in Balmoral Forest. It appears that this '"Mon- arch of the Glen" had been stalked most assiduously by the King and his party for over two hours, and each gun was anxious to bring him down. At length one of the members of the party crouched down behind a bould- ar, got a good sight of him, and fired. Simultaneously the King's gun rang out from another part of the forest, and the stag wus seen to drop instant- ly. The delicate question then arose, quality calfs- (ho really shot the stag? Ts King Poot pelatineand pure walked up to the gentleman in ques ii P tion and said, "We fired togethers which of us hit him?" With ready wit, the other bowed and remarked, "As your Majesty knows, I am only | ma indifferent shot, so that honor must need be yours."

It is stated to be his jesty's intention to bave the head of this stag, a remarkably fine specimen, moun and hung either at or Sandringham, moNy ~probebly the lager.
