The purser on a well-known liner tells of a lady who had made a pas sage befoie, and who In consequence 'ell a supeilor knowledge of maritime things. Scvotal ladles weio gtouped In tho Btcrn, this one among them, when their attention was attracted by tho log with Its long line nttnehed to tho rail. "Why, what can Hint bo?" Inquired one of tho party. "That?" said the knowing one. "Well, you see the vessel luiu to keep In communication with the land, and In order to tell just how far they have got on tho passage they keep one end tied to tho dork, and by looking nt the nmoimt of line paid out thuy can tell Just how far they tiro from the other side." "Oh!" exclaimed the other, nfter thlB lucid explanation. "Well, 1 linve always heard of the log, but I never knew whnt one was before. Thnnk you so much!" Youth's Companion. Remedy for Choking. "Raising the left arm iib high as you enn will relieve choking much more rapidly than the act of thumping ono's back," said a phytlclnu, "and It Is well thnt everyone should know it, forofton n person gets choked while eating where thoie Is no one near to thump lilm. Very frequently nt meals and when thuy nre at play, children got choked while eating, and the custom ary manner of relieving them Ib to nlnp them sharply on the back. Tho effect of this Is to set tho obstruction free. Tho same thing can bo brought about by raising the left hand of tho child as high as possible and the relief comes much moie quickly. In happen ings of this kind there should be no alarm, for If the child sees that older persons or paieutu get excited the ef fect Is bad. Tho best thing Is to toll tho child to raise Its left arm and lm mediately the difficulty passes nway."
