She was taking " Miss Jonny," aged 7, to the park. A crowd was waiting, and Miss Jenny explained that they wero weiting to son the King. When the King rode by the Franch nursemaid shouted Vive le Roi!" for all she was worth.

One does not seed to know touch about the engineering profession to se ata glancs how the dividends of the large steamship companies must depend on the honest, energetic working of the ship's engineers. On that recount, as much any thing else, they ought to receive more considera- tion at the hands of the shipowner. Ofrecent years the Admiralty has recognized the one of the engineerin the Navy, and to this recognition we owe the vast improvement which has taker place in our fighting fleet of to-day.
One hears every day what fine follows the captain and the desk officers in the merchant service are, but there is nover mention of the engineer officer, for the simple reason (as one of the saloon
