PKINCE GEORGE TOMOItOW
The Prince George Is scheduled
to make this port iu the morning
a» 7 o'clock. It carries a repre
sentative passenger and. cargo list

Hot Water and a Glass.
Why does a glass breuk when hoi
water Is put into it and does not break
when it Is put into hot water? The
hot water Inside the glass makes the
layers on the inside tend to expand
But they cannot expand, being held
fast by the colder outer layers, so they
buckle on themselves and the glass
breaks.
When, however, we dip the glass into
boiling water it is the outer layers that
tend to expand. Tbey have room to
do It, not being compressed by the in
ner layers, and they gradually drag
these inner layers with them as the
heat spreads to the latter. So there
Is nothing to make the glass break.
In the Gun Turret.
Manipulating it big gnu in the turret
of a battleship is just about as imper
sonal a form of fighting as exists. In
trench warfare you can hear the shell
coming In time to step out of its path
(If you are lucky), but In turret lighting
you are shut up tightly in a steel com
partment, with no chance of escape.
If any enemy projectile strikes the tur
ret you are killed. If the ship sinks
your steel trap d row us you. And If
you finally defeat the enemy by work
ing a brass lever back and forward for
five hours you wonder how many of
your shots were hits and how many
were mere waterspouts.—Brooklyn Ea

Paul Revere.
Paul Revere's memory will always be
honored because of the warning he car
ried to the patriots at Lexington an1'
Concord, but that was by no means his
only service to the colonies. He was
one of the prime movers in the Boston j
tea party and also engaged in what
proved an unsuccessful expedition {
against the British post on the Penob- !
scot in 1771). In private life ltevere was 1
a copi>er plate engraver and an artist.
He made many caricatures illustrative
of pre-Revolutlonary topics, printed tha
provincial paper money of Massachu
setts in 1775 and in the same year built
a mill for the manufacture of gunpow

poets'A3 PUNSTERS.
Even Shakespeare and Milton Broka
Into This Form of Humor.
Shakespeare was an inveterate poll
ster. and Dr. Johnson In his preface to
an edition to the poet's works deplores
his habit of punning on serious occa
sions Hamlet is uuide (o pun wben
he asks the gravedigser:
"Whose grave's this?"
"Mine, sir." answers the clown
Hamlet replies:
"I think it he tliiue indeed, for thon
llest In't." und .-idiis later. "Thou dost
>ie In't to be in't and say it is thine."
To King Richard"* question. "Wbut
•omfort. man? Uow Is't with ancient
Haunt"'" Shakes|>eure makes (iaunt re
ply: "Old Uaunt indeed and gauut in
iieins old Within me grief has kept a
tedious fast And who abstains from
•neat thai Is not gaunt*''*
Milton is the last poet one would
think to be guilty of punning, and yet
lie once wrote a punning epitaph upon
a carrier who plied between Cambridge
and Ijondon and who died after losing
his trade on account of tile plague.
iuis earner was rne uonson wnose
"choice" is so famous. He used to hire
out horses, hut travelers had to take
the horse llobson offered or none, so
that "Uobson's choice" came to menn
no choice at all.
The whole poem, written on the death
of this currier. Is full of puns. One pus
sane runs:
Rest that Rives all men life gave him his
dentil.
And too much breathing put him out of
breath.
Nor were It contradiction to affirm
Too long vacation hastened on hla term.
Cowper made a pun which has be
come quite famous. In the poem de
scribes the ride of John Gilpin, who
bad to go where his horse took him
aud eventually arrived at the house of
a friend from whom the horse had
been borrowed. Gilpin says:
1 came because your horse would come.
And If I well forbode.
My hat and wig wili snoit t>e here.
Thcv are upon the road
Tom Hood's humorous poetry Is full
of puns In "The I.ady's Dream" he
writes:
They talked together like two egotlsta I
(n conversation all made up nf eyes.

his life. She looked gloomy. After

"Well, they don't." she went on con
clusively. "I took all those lovely let-1
