PEACHES AND BLUBBER.
A Story nf Arilmr fflrlnitcr mid nn
Oxford l'ror'Mn(ir.
Canadians are very touchy on the
subject of climate, as Kud.vard Kliillng
discovered when he somewhat thought
lessly dubbed the I lonilnloli "Our Lady
of the Snows." When Arthur Stringer,
tlie young Canadian poet and author,
first, went to Oxford, lie carried with
him letters from Professor (ioldwln
Smith of Toronto to Professor York
Powell, the distinguished historian of
Christchurch.
The old Oxford don, like one or two
other Englishmen, had very vngue
Ideas about Canada ami somew hat sur
prised the young stranger by Inquiring
If he got along nicely 011 English roast
mutton after living so long on I'ro.en
sen! meat. The young poet gravely
protested that he perhaps missed his
whale blubber n little, but the next day
cabled home, nnd In less than a week
the finest basket of autumn peaches
ever grown in Ontario, carefully pack
ed in sawdust, was on lis way to Ox
ford. A short time afterward the
young author was again dining with
the reglus professor at Oxford, and
that gentleman produced at the meal
a fruit dish loaded with tremendous
peaches.
"Most extraordinary." said the old
professor, "but these peaches were
sent to mo today, nnd I'm blessed If 1
know who sent them. I-'roin the south
of France, I suspect, so I saved a few
of them for you. Stringer. They will
be such n novelty, you know."
The Canadian very quietly took n
stenmshlp company's bill of lading
from his pocket and handed It to the
professor. The professor gazed at the
bill, then at the fruit, then at the poet,
"I had some whale blubber, too, pro
fessor," said that young man. "but 1
simply had to eat that. These other
things were grown on my uncle's farm
In Kent county. Out., you know. He
lias 200 bushels of them every year,
and he sent me over a basket of little
ones along with the whale blubber."

Franklin Fyles. writing of "The The

Home Journal, touches Interestingly
upon the earnings of actors and cor
rects the oft repented reports of the
enormous earnings of players. "Sala
ries vary with circumstances," he says.
"The manager may find at 11 week
a player whose moderate talent exact

tunes. He may have to pay $ir) if the
role Is singular ami lit candidates

tion to ability, he may be willing to
make the salary f?300 a week. In that
case he takes into account the public
value of the name and makes a feature
of It In his advertisements.
"Not more than ten actors in Amer
ica, aside from the stars, receive as
much as ,$U."iO a week, and not. more
than live actresses are paid this
lunount. In fact, Tii) a week is excep

not be an error to trace the custom of
feminizing ships back to the Greeks,
who called them by feminine names,
probably out of deference to Athene,
