v Smart & Silberbera: The Toy Store To think of the dolls, toys and other supplies which link the child's heart closest to Christmas, is to bring to mind the big holiday basement which this store has provided. Just think of the room given over to toys a space 80x80 feet. No story about them can be complete. We would not get through talk ing by Christmas if we attempted to tell you all about this gath ering in toyland. The best we can do is to drop a word about this thing this day and that another, and to cordially invite you to come, every day and see for yourself. Millinery Costs Come Down. We forget the past in the millinery store today as far as former prices are concerned. Women's Pattern and Tailored Hats and all that we have in pretty headwear for the miss are at halt price. Liberal concessions, too, in flowers, fancy feath ers and ornaments. Fancy Linen for Gifts. Fancy Linens supply almost inexhaustible resources to the giift-seeker.

No crew got drink ou the return to port after a successful trip until thanks had been declared foi the dew of lied veil they had gathered. After a cruise the men were expected to fling all their loot iuto a pile, from which the chiefs made their selectlou and division. Each buccaneer wag ex ported to hold up his right hand and tc swear that he had not concealed any portion of the spoil. If after making oath a man were found to have iiccret ed anything he was bundled overboard or marooned when the ship next made llio laud. Each buccaneer had a mate or comrade, with whom he shared all things and to whom his property de volved In the event of death. In many cases the partnership lasted (luring life. A love for his partner was usually the only tender sentiment a buccaneer al lowed himself. "tririrlnit" a CnnnI Hoat. Throughout England there are a num ber of tunnels cut for canals where boats have to be pushed through by a laborious process called "legging." This is about the only work on the canal women do in it do, anil they used to do even this. One limy see the process lu operation near London at the Maida I till tunnel, which Is sonic 272 yards in length. Sometimes when the roof Is low one man can Vleg" an empty boat by lying down on his back on top of the cabin anil pushing the roof with his feet. V.'lth a broad boat "legging" Is performed by two men, one on each side of the boat, who He down on the fore end and push against the tunnel sides with their feet. If the tunnel is too wide boards projecting over the boat's side, termed i"wlngs," are brought Into use for them to lie on. At tunnels whore truffle is good pro fessional "loggers' are In attendance.

Nowadays "the Lev'aut" means solely the eastern Mediterranean region. But It really signifies the east lu a general sense the region of the rising sun, in fact lielng derived ".from the French "lever," to rise. By 'the high Levant"' Bacon meant the far' east. In . the eighteenth century Cbamliors' Encyclo pedia explained that "Levant" applied to nuy country to the eastward of one, and In this sense-.-Evelyn wrote of "more Levantine parts than Italy." "Levant," Indeed, was Interchangeable with "orient," Just as "pouent" was with "Occident." So we tind Milton writing of "Levant" and 'Tonent" minds. London Chronicle. A Cnrloaa Wateh.

It was com posed of 120 different pieces and was provided with the first ruby cylinder ever made. For this little mechanical marvel Arnold received from the king a present of 500 guineas.

For many years Lord (iardonstono vra one of the characters of Edin burgh and as such received a place among the fauioua Kay's portraits. He was represented riding on au old horse, "with a dog lu front and n boy dressed In a kilt behind. A detailed account of the picture states that Kay.; ior trayed him as, what he really was, a vory timid borsemnn, mounted on an old hack, which he had selected for its want of spirit, preceded by his favorite dog Smash and followed by a highland boy, whoso duty It was to take charge of the horse ou arriving at parliament house. His eccentricity took the even stranger form of a strong affection for pigs. He liecame so much attached to one that he allowed It to share his bed, and when good feeding and rapid growth made It a rather ciimliersome liedfellow It was still lodged lu com fortable quarters In the apartment During the daytime It followed Win about like a dog.
