Five minutes later George Carrington had snatched his camera from the broad hallway of the Berkeley'inn, snapped it at the waterscape, and he and Jack Grayson were off on a fishing trip. It was the last day of their vacation, spent wandering down the coast at random, seldom two nights in tho same place. The final day's sport over, Carrington sped back to the city in a train, camera, fishing kit and grip beside him, tanned and tired, but happy. He reached his apartments and thought of the last picture of clouds and rocks and sea. He must dev-elop it forthwith, and he did. \"A vacation of Jolly good fun without a romance,\" he mused. \"Nature, sunshine, fresh air, a good chum and good fishing; nothing more to be desired.\" The film sank In the developing fluid, and in a few seconds the outlines of a coast scene appeared. First, came the blotches of black, representing the high lights\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdciouds and the crests of waves. By an alchemy which never ceases to be marvelous nil the delicate gradations of light and shade filled in until tlie perfect picture appeared. Then occurred something wbich caused Carrington to gasp in astonishment and almost drop the developing tray, for in the, center of the picture, bond and shoulders visible above the crest of a breaker, appeared the form of a young woman, like a mermaid arising out of. the sea. There was a saucy tilt to the'-; ~laughing~face,-and_the_bare,ar;msJ4\\*.erei outstretched as a beckoning mermaid?}* might have been. .Carrington knew that;, no human being had been in that expanse of sea while he was on. the beach; Wltb almost feverish haste he made a print from the film.

It dealt with tho photographic discovery of a now light rny Invisible to the eye, but duly recorded on the peculiarly sensitized photographic plate. \"Nonsense!\" he promptly said. \"That's a flesh and blood girl.

Tl*e Totirlat and the Porter, An English tourist was discussing the relative merits of British and American railway service the other evening when he suddenly sprang the following clincher on his cisatlantic cousins: \"I tell you, though, there's one point you folks are behind in, and that is the tack of consideration shown white passengers in having them pass inspection by an African. Why, tbe idea of such treatment is an insult to any gentleman. \"A few days ago when boarding one of your famous express trains I was chagrined, to put it mildly, to be asked by a liveried colored man to Bhqw my ticket to him.

There was no appearance of colored marks upon his arm. and the question submitted to M. Xeroy, the medico-legal expert, was whether the man had ever been tattooed. M. Leroy applied strong j friction to the skin of the man's arm. ' This had the effect of bringing put white lines as cicatrices, with a slight bluish tint. By this means the word j \"Sophie\" was plainly legible in white , marks on the reddened skin. This proved the identity of the convict. The Art of Nnmins; Horae-i.

The'most prominent feature of eastern Jersey is the Castle ol Mont Orgueil, standing out boldly on the rocky headland separating Grouville Bay from that of St. Anne. The fortress was commenced towards the end of tha tenth century by the' Dukes of Normandy, the building being continued and added to by various English Kings. In its day it was not only famous as a fortress | but as a prison, its most remarkable prisoner perhaps being William , Prynne, who incurred the hatred ot Charles I. for his tirade against oppressors. It was in the dungeons of Mont Orgueil that Prynne penned one of his most curious works, \"Divine and Profitable Meditations, raised from tho Contemplations of- these three Leaves of Nature's Volume: 1.

He came of reputable family..., Born at ' Swanswick, Somersetshire, in 1600, he was educated at Bath Grammar School and Oriel, Oxford. Called to the Bar of Lincoln's Inn in 1628, he with law combined the study of theology; and ecclesiastical antiquities. From youth upwards he entertained strong religious views, their\" Puritanic conviction being greatly strengthened by the preaching of Dr. John Preston, chaplain of his inn. Prynne's first book ''The Perpetuity of & Regenerate Man's Estate'\/' came out in 1627. Three years later he published animadversions of all Arminian teaching, and appealed to' Parliament to suppress anything written against Calvinistic doctrine. Prynne advocated forcing the clergy to subscribe the conclusion of the synod of Dort. In the. same uncompromising spirit the Puritan constituted himself a reformer of the fash- \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdions-and-rccreations-of-the-age.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdHe- waged warfare with his pen against men wearing long hair, women cutting off their trosscs. and showed the sinfulness of drinking healths. Then came his famous crusade of proving the immorality of stage plays.
