Tere is a list of them, their victories and the hohors they have won: WHITE—Ordered blundering and fatal sortie of Nicholeon's Nek, Oct. 30, 1899; $70 prtsoners taken; besleged in Ladysmith until relleved; llon- ized tn London; decorated by Queen Victoria {n person. METHUEN—After wasting his splendid army in several frontal attacks, was checked at Spytfontein, Dec. 11, 1899; the Highland Brigade sacri- ficed and Gen. Wauchope Killed; kept in command and rewarded with an honorary title. BULLEH—"Ferryman of the Tugela," beaten at Colenso, Der. 15, 1899; checked again and again with heavy loss; failed utterly to relieve Ladysmith until Roberts created a diversion; censured by Roberts; afterward rewarded with a “grand cross; now popularly regarded as a “real old British Inmrdog after all.” WARRPN-—L«ader of the storming party which took Spion Kop with heavy loss and was forced to withdraw, Jan. 23-25, 1900; censured by Roberts; _appointed administrator of Bechuanaland. BADEN-POWELL—Successful In easy defenso of Mafeking and compared to heroes of Thermopylae; mae a Commander of the Bath. FRENCH—Dashing cavalry leader, deficient in strategy; the plaything of De Wet anid Delarey; just scored total failure in the campaign fn the north; decorate! and mado full General. ROBERTS—"Ended the war" by a marah in overwhelming force upon Pre- toria; fighting has since continued at a cost of men and money greater than all that went before, but he has received his reward—an earl- dom, the Order of the Garter, a separate appointment for his daughter and the post of Commandor-in-Chiet. MILNER—Forved the war and 1s now fighting against any concilintion; has earned for the British the undying hate of the Dutch, who out- number them four to one tn all South Africa; greeted in London with unusual honors; made Lord Milner of Capo Town. “All over but the shouting” is the usual phrase. Here this must be moditied Nothing over but the shouting.” For the “ended” war is now costing Britain more than at any previous time, and the monthly average of casualties is slightly higher than it w a year ago. “MUCH VIRTUE IN ‘IF.” Mrs. Eddy is quoted as saying that “if the science of life were understood, the human limb could be replaced as readily as the + lobster’s claw.” That is to say, men who lose their arms or legs by amputation, in war, or by any of the thousand and one accidents that happen to them in peaceful occupation, could readily grow new ones—“if the seience of life were understood.” Hundreds of millions paid in pensions to maimed veterans might be saved, and “lists of wounded” from the battle-field would be robbed of their terrors—“if the science of life were understood.” The railroad and trolley companies, instead of having to pay dam- ages that aggregate millions annually to persons who sue them for lost feet, missing hands and other curtailments of their bodies, could promptly give them new lisnbs for old, and save their money—“if f life were understood.” sre is “much virtue in ‘if,’ and Mrs. Eddy’s intimation that “proud man” ean only acquire equality with the lobster in this matter i . indicates that her inspirational utterances are tempered with eaution. THE TRIUMPH OF THE SAIL ago it was said that steam would drive sailing iat the sound of rattling blocks at dawn, the glint of white sails afar off, were passing forever. + HOW MEN MAY COME AS LODSTBKS.

Instead of making taller masts and heavier sails, they laid longer keels and stepped more masts, three, four, five, six in a row; and now a whole fleet of seven-masters will be built. And a marine wonder thg seven-masted schooner will be— 11,600 tons Uisplncenient 6,000 tons burden, or more than that of any except the t riggest freight steamships; hollow steel mars, steel plates and rigging, electric lights, and every stroke of heavy work done by steam! Reaten by steam?” says the sailor man. “Not at all! I use it to trim my sheets and hoist halyards.” 5 A crew of tifteen or eighteen men all told can handle this enormous schooner, and carry freight cheaper than any steamship afloat. As long as there are Yankees in Maine never fear that the white sail will fail the sea that loves it. 1001. dy Pally Stary Pub Co) | fuxuries auch aa horses and theatres to | {marry you, Dudley.” "ound out the time, And T trust you | thy Strong, with deter) Will find the hero you dream of.” aanhtlenciuirnen owed himself gracefully out Tost of alla eile mllei setimeiuie mle “LE hope therm {the irrestettble magnet of clanging bells d leaping flamea were Dorothy Btrong her sister, who Hved but a few ks distant. fully. will be no strained relations on account of this epixode,” an flouncing 13 inches wide for via! of embroidered frills, tucking and 3-4 yard as illustrated, caisen 3, 4,6 and 8| | ‘World, |p Suddenly, above the shouting of the firemen and the roar of the flames mse a plercing cry and out from the crowd, past the fire lines, ran a woman with wildly staring eyes, hatless and dis- hevelled and uttering shriek after shriek.
