He Knew.
A short time ago a! well-known
yachtsman had among tile crew of his
cutter a young German sailor who
spoke very broken Island/Sound, English, while One
night, in Long
the yacht was sailing along the shore
with a light breeze, a ordered heavy fog shut
out the view. Carl was to keep
heaving the lead, so that too close an
approach to the shore in gbt be guard¬
ed againt. Poor Carl wfi.s in a dilem¬
ma. for he did not know) enough Eng¬
lish to pronounce the different sound¬
ings. However, he got the lead and
line and went to the side,of the yacht,
determined to do his bes . The breeze
had died away, and [though the
yacht was known nppreh^ded. to be i Far the land,
danger was not. When
Carl hove the lend he tl® covered shal¬
low water, and knew that a current
was setting the boat inshore so he
called, hut in rattier a low voice, for
he was a little afraid that his language
would be made fun of,
“Nod much vasser here!”
No one appeared to pay attention to
him, so he threw the lead again, and
advised,
“Bedder get oud of here!”
Just ther. the yacht slid up on the
beach, and Carl. ( rath j j triumphant

The Use of the Megaphone
The reports of the rowing- contests
have all contained reference to the
megaphone, through which the various
coaches communicated with the crews,
and accounts from the training head¬
quarters had similar references, TUe
simple instrument is found to he so
valuable as a means looked of upfdn communication of
that it is now as a part
the necessary pharapheifnalia in grow¬
ing contest. The nxegaJphone is sim¬
ply a large cone from thirty to forty
eight inches long, made! of waterproof
fibre or light metal, Tjhe voice of a
person speaking into t small end is
carried easily a distance of a mile,
while a loud call, whew neither wind
heard nor obstructions the water, interfere, in may country he
along on the shore distance j open of two
or a
miles.
The instrument is often used as a
receiver also. The small end is placed
at the ear, and sounds firom a distance
which would otherwise! be inaudible
can be heard distinctly. The hands instru
inent is usually held in the of
the person who uses it, like a speak
ing trumpet, but it is constructed so
that it can he fixed to a tripod or a
swivel, and the person using it may
remain seated and direct it ‘To any
point. By means of t ie megaphone
the audience at nearly all open-air
athletic, meetings are informed as to
the winners, and at these places, as
well as in the rowing world, it has be
coine an invaluable "instrument.—

The Earth Always Ouaking.
The severe earthquakes recently re¬
ported may cause another outbreak of
earthqnake prophesying. It may he
well to remember that the earth is
quaking all the time, so the prophet
always nits the nail somewhere, but
the chance of death by earthquake is
for these settled region ‘ of the globe
much less than accidents while sitting
around the evening meal.—Philadel¬

To Change the C (mate
A Boston man says h • can change
the climate of New England and the
maritime provinces of Canada by
building a dam acroR >h< Strait of
Belle Is!e, blocking it d diverting
the northern current- The dam
would have to be ten m les long and
about 2i)*) feet high, an -troag enough
to resist the ocean, 11 ■ thinks this
could be done for ?'/' and that
