One of Tara’s bankclerks has come to the conclusion that sleep- ing in the morning is an expensive pleasure. On Saturday he went to Owen Sound to spend Sunday at his home, and intended returning on the early’mbrning express on Monday, but failed to waken from his peaceful slumbers until long after train time. He having part of the combination of the safe here it was necessary for him to be in 'Tara in half an hour, and consequently an auto was hired, instructing the chauffeur to make the distance of sixteen miles" in thirty minutes if possible. The trip was commenced and they drove through the country at a merry clip, and when they arrived :at their destination it was found lthe trip was made in twenty-five minutes, or about a mile every minute and a half. Constable Briggs happened to be on the street when the auto came down Yonge'street at about a forty mile an hour clip, and when the machine stopped he uietly went over to the driver an took his name and asked him to appear be- fore the‘: magistrate for over-step- ping the speed limit.

YOUNG PRINCE ERIE By order, R. C. DESRQCHERS, W. W. CORY, THE DURHAM CHRONICLE. Secretai'y. '3? .1 Know the intricacies of Calcula- tion That Enter Into Its Making. The year just cl sed was fifty-three Sundays long. As it came in on Sun- day, it goes out on the same day. This, including 1905, occurs but eigh- teen times in this century. It you are mathematically constructed, it will be easy to understand how the arrange- ment seems irregular. If you are as frank about it as was Lord Chester- field in 1751 when he presented a bill to bring British dates into agreement with those of Europe generally, it won’t bother. He said he knew no- thing about the subject; but he was forced to make the Lords think he did, and to make them think that they also know, which they didn’t. The next year corresponding to the current calendar will be 1916, and the same will be true of 1922 and 1928. After these, a similar condition will occur in five years, 1933. Then six years will elapse before a fifty-three Sunday calendar, 1939. Then the schedule will swing back to five years, or in 1944. From then there will be fifty-three Sunday in 1950, 1956, 1961, 1967, 1972. 1978, 1984, 1989, 1995 and 2000. A study of this fact will show that no year, leap years excepted, can have fifty-three Sundays unless the year begins on Sunday. Of course the first day of 1912 was on Monday. April and July follow suit. February and August will start on Thursday; March and November come in on Friday. May will be the orly month beginning on Wednes- day; June will start on Saturday; September and December on Sunday; October on Tuesday. \JDUUUUL wax .‘u u... Almanac makers and people whose specialty is measuring time and un- winding the eternal dances of the mid- night sky, “tell us that the length or day light differs according to its loca- tion. Thus, New York’s longest day is fifteen hours. London has sixteen and one-half hours. Spitzbergen has three and a half months. Quito on the equator has its day and night equally divided. Reduced to simple numbers we say that all years contain three hundred and sixty-five days. And unless one is a time specialist, one would say that all the years begin the first day of January. It depends on what kind of a year is considered. The lunar year, for example, has three hundred and fifty-four days, eight hours, forty- eight minutes, and thirty-six seconds. In this year the moon makes a jour- ney round the earth twelve times. As you will readily see, the lunar year is eleven days shorter than the solar year In his “Random Remmiscences" Mr. Charles Brookfield tells an amus- ing story of an actor friend, Frank Marshall, an exceedingly popular and accomplished member of the pro- fession, who had lost a finger in ear- ly life, and who wore a kid finger- stall partially to conceal the defic- iency. Marshall had a pretty talent for mixing sa’lads, and one evening at the Sheridan Club, as his friends dropped in to dine, they noticed him preparing one of the delicious salads of which he alone seemed to know the secret. P DELLUUO Immediately there were cries of “Frank, make me one at the same time”; and “Oh! Frank, made enough for me, too,” and, beaming with sat- isfaction at the compliment to his skill, Frank called for more lettuces, chives, tarragon, and other ingredi- ents. And when he had chopped up his herbs into minute fragments and mixed his salad in his own way everyone was delighted. 1---~AIJ tn“ CVDljvsnv IV “v ""'C A few more neighbors begged for stray leaves, and finally one enthus- iastic gourmand wiped the bowl round with a ball of bread, and turned up his eyes in ecstasy as he gulped down the savoury morsel. But the face 'of the founder of the feast wore a trou- bled expression. fi_ . _ _.‘|.. n” nn1,nr] ULCLI CA‘I)L\¢>J~'A\I;:¢ “Whats the matter, Frank?” asked one of his friends. “Oh, nothing,” rephed Frank, peer- imT round the pohshed bowl, “onlyâ€" Children are never children to them- selves. From the standpoint of the grownup the real children we meet in these days are few and far between. To be a real child implies uncon- sciousness of one’s superiority. The trouble with many of the children of to-day is that they have discovered that they are superior. .Theiraadvan- tages are much greater than ours w‘ere, and they know it and they rub it in. The old-fashioned licking has gone out and with it the child. In his place is a vastly superior crea- ture who is affable on being approach- ed, condescending under continued contact and capable of any degree of cruelty if his dignity he ruffled- There has long existed among the Chinese a passion for fireworks and lanterns. Travelers have called China the land of lanterns, and the term is apposite. In every city, at every port and on every river and canal as soon as night comes on lanterns make their appearance. They are hung at the door oi every dwelling; they swing as pendants from the angles of pagodas; they form the fiery crown of every shop front; they cluster round the houses of the rich and light up the hovels of the poor; they are borne with the carriages of travelers, and they swing from the yards and the masts of vessels. - Primitive Man and Exercise. Exercise in primitive times was the price of life. It was only after we had learned to live by our wits and exercise. became a luxury' that it be- gan to run into fads. If primitive man neglected. his alfresco De’lsartean exer- cisesand let his muscles soften he simply provided a tender tidbit for some of his conireres, carnivore or cannibal. It was a case of eat or be eaten, and his motto was “Do it first.” The gorgeous possibilities of power through repose had not yet dawned on him. "in those days man didn’t exercise.
