Don’t wait unless you are one before you think of marrying or yo.i will ,wo great difficulties in the way. One will be that you will be dread- tolly fussy and hard to suit, and the ither will be that while ypu will want a iung wife, no young woman want you Some men remain .bachelors because they actually lack comuge to propose. In many of the letters that come to me the men declare that while they ire in love, they don’t know how express their sentiments. some rose of a girl, expecting her to thankfully nccept the gift. When a middle-aged woman marries a mere boy, ueopie raise their hands in righteous protest. But they look calmly on when some middled-aged4'Othario goes wooing a girl young enough to be his daughter. It isn’t fair. Youth should mate with youth, when all the beauty of life and love are keen est. Men Are Reese About Proposing.

Are sailors supersti tious? No! Not half as much as some of you outsiders are, said Williams, the boatswain’s mate, down at the Chatta nooga Navy Recruiting Office. And still we see some of the most uncanny things at sea that you ever heard of. Take for instance the mystic island of tlie Pacific. and the terrific speel of the island as cending to the surface must have knock ed her into splinters. Several times since this supposed oc curence the island has been seen and re ported by passing merchant vessel, and it always seems to come up after one of these storms. But when one of our vessels would go out to verify the report there would be no island in sight within a 200 mile radius of the suppored locat ion.

There is one feature about the bowling, and that is the good order which is maintained, that is seldom equalled in any other line of entertainment. The public can visit the place with as surance that they will receive courteous attention and there is no doubt but that much good may be derived from the ex ercise gained at the bowling alley.

All at tempts to locate and sqrvey this island by government vessels have so far fail ed. At least a dozen ships have been sent on this expedition, but none of them found it or ever expect to. The first report ever received of this island was in 1883 when the three mast ed schooner Serena Thayer was lost down in that vicinity. This vessel sail ed from Honolulu for San Diego in the early part of 83 and has never been seen or heerd from since.
