THE HOBBY HE
KING GEORGE
Takes the Keenest Interest in
Development of Photography.
Has Kinematograph.
London. -Though not an expert
photographer himself, King George
lias always taken the keenest Inter
cut In the progress and development
of the art and has given his children
< very encouragement to practice It to
tu .‘ir hearts content. It is not gen
erally known that among the equip
ment of the Royal household is a
Kinematograph projector and it is
not an uncommon tnlng to find a Ki
nema show figuring as part of the
Royal entertainments specially in the
winter months.
Copies of practically every film of
the King's tour either at home or
abroad ilnd their way to Windsor
< untie or Buckingham Palace and are
added to tue ever-growing collection

ot King Bdward.
O, still photographs there is a
veritable art gallery at Windsor Cas
-11- and quite recently King George
gave orders that a collection should
be formed of portraits of all the lead
ing Boldlers and sailors so his reign.
A start has bee* made In the room
allloted for the purpose with the
paintings of Field Marshall Lord Rob
erts and Field Marshall Lord Kitch
ener, both close personal friends of
the king and in the next week or
two the walls will further be adorned
by the pictures of Admiral of the
Fleet. Lord Fisher and Admiral Lord
Charles lleresford. Paintings of
other celebrated officials will be
added from time to time and Is cases
where these are not available, the
king has given orders for them to be
obtained at his expense. Men of
lesser note will he specially photo
graphed for the Windsor gallery and
in the course of a year or so the new
gallery will undoubtedly he one of
the most Interesting of Windsor

BILLBOARDS TEIToF
DANGERS OF THE FLY
Copenhagen. On the billboards of
Copenhagen appear* the sign, “The
moat dangerous of all animals Is not
the lion, the tiger or the reptile but—
the fly.” This is the means Herr
Kalrk uses In waging a campaign
against flies.
Herr Falck is the bitterest enemy
the fly has in Scandinavia, and his
one ambition is to see a flyless Den
mark. To preach his new crusade, he
has organized in Copenhagen the first
complete fly exhibition in the world.
It contains every kind of weapon yet
invented for trapping, poisoning or
smashing flies. Most of these contri
vances come from the United States.
An old superstition that Herr Falck
hopes to rid the people of Is that a
Christmas fly brings good luck. A
Christmas fly, according to Herr
Falck, is the* potential mother of 195,-
312.500,000 descendants in the course
of the summer season.

COWING HOC
OF SCULL CHAMP
Giant Italian Who Ran Away
With Diamond Sculls in Hen
ley Regatta to Be a Profes
sional
London.—Giuseppe SinlKa#lla. the
giant Italian who ran away with the
Diamond sculls In the Henley regat
ta this year. Is about to become a pro
fessional. He does this because he
seeks fresh fields to conquer and has
proved himself far ahead of any ama
teur.
Those who saw him on the Thames
believe he will out-distabce the best
professional. He is six feet five Inch
es tall, weighs In condition 203 pounds
and Is a natural oarsman. He Is 23
years old.
Sintgaglia has challenged Ernest
Barry, the professional champion, with
TO SAVE EYES
Is the Object of This Free Pre
scription—Try It if Your
Eyes Give You Trouble.
Thousands of people suffer from eye
troubles, bemuse they do not know what
to do. They know some good home rem
edy for every other minor ailment, but
none for their eye troubles. They neg
lect their eyes, because 'he trouble is
not sufficient to drive them to an eye
specialist, who would, any way, charge
them a heavy fee. As a last resort they
go to an optician or to the five and ten
cent store, and often-tlmee get glasses
that they do not need, or which, after
being used two or three months, do
their eyes more Injury than good. Here
is a simile prescription that every one
should use:
5 grains Optona. (1 Tablet)
* 3 ounces Water.
Vee three or four times a day to baths
the eves. This prescription keeps the
eyes clean and quickly overcomes In
flammation and Irritation. Weak, wat
ery, work-stramed eyes, granular lids
and other similar troubles are greatly
benefited and often-tlmes cured by Its
use. Many who wear glasses have dis
carded them after using It for a few
weeks. It Is good for the eyes, and will
not njure tna most sensitive eyes of an
Infant or the aged. Any druggist can
fill this preser ptlon promptly. Try it

a view of demonstrating to the ath
letic world that he is the greatest
sculler of the day. The Italian wants
the race rowed on Lake Como, Italy,
where he has done his train. Barry
Insists that it he rowed on the Thames
and so has refused Sinigaglia's offer
of J 1.500 to row In Italy. Being cham
pion Barry maintains he has the right
to name the place for thq race.
Marvellous.
The Italian’s showing on the Thames
was little short of marvellous. His
steering was erratic, but he overcame
this handicap, which would have lost
moßt scullers the races at Henley. He
ran into log booms, took a zig-zag
course and still defeated his opponents
by lengths. From this it can be seen
how superior he was to the Henley
field. He rowed so fast that one of
hts rivals In the effort to keep up with
him fell out of his shell exhausted
while another fainted dead away.
At Henley he met seasoned oars
men who in ordinary years would
have won the Diamond sculls with
distinction. He reached the course
without having had any races to try
his metal, yet came home winner ev
ery time.
What the natural oarsmen will do
against professionals Is no problem.
Hanlon of Toronto, back in the late
70’s was a natural oarsman; an ama
teur untried until he burst suddenly
on the world of professional two-oar
men and easily vanquished them. He
was, In his time, unbeatable. He ar
rived finally at the point where it was
no longer possible for him to get a
race with any man in the world. Yet
Hanlon was at the outset of his career
an amateur, developed without the
competition now considered necessary
to make a champion In -ji ysport.
FORETELLS ISTHMUS OF
PANAMA WILL WITNESS
A SEA-LEVEL 'CANAL
Psnsm*.—After having spent the
better part of a week in an extended
examination of the Panama Canal,
Philip Buana-Varilla. ex-chief engi
neer of the defunct New French Pan
ama Canal Company, is still of the
opinion that ultimately the Isthmus
of Panama will witness the construc
tion of a sea-level canal. He declares
that at the end of the first 20 years
of operation of the present lock canal
It will be found necessary to recon
struct that waterway In order to take
care of the increased traffic that will
use It.
Bunau-Varllla Is emphatic In his
statement that within 20 years the
present Panama Canal will have
reached the limit of Its earning ca
pacity. 50.000.000 tons annually, and
that then It will be found that only a

gineer makes it plain, however that
he does not mean to criticise the con
struction of the present lock canal, but
maintains that this is merely the sec
