How They Go Sailing: Out of St. Malo Bay. Imposing Ceremonies of Simple Jtretoa Sailors Whu Annually -Go Uoira to tbe Sea In Khiiw." and Often Kerer Aeiurn. On & granite rock In the English Channel, at the mouth of the tidal River Itanee. the bluest and most beau tiful stream in all France, stands the walled town of St. Main, once the chief commercial city of Brittany. Every spring a fleet of taut little brig-rigged fishing vessels sails out of St. ' Malo, bound for the Grand Banks of New foundland, to share with the men of the Canada coast, nnd the New Eng land fishermen from Cape Cod ami Gloucester, the catch of cod that swarm in those waters. These little vessels, scarce largvrthan the mackerel schoon ers that daily fli-al in and out of Boston harbor, are absent fi-oni France from March till latp in the autumn. The dangers tfiiey encounter in fogs and storms on the Banks are mauy, and widows and fatherless children art is umerous ahng the Breton coast. Coifderin. therefore, the great peril to which their husbands, sons ami brothers and sweethearts are to be exposed, it is not surprising that the departure of the Twrenevaughs is the resit event of the year along the Breton coast. - - Front their scattered winter qnsrters In the harbors and coves along the rocky shore, and from the villages on the banks of the Ranee, the vessels come together in St. Malo Bay by the afternoon of the Sumlay nearest the spring tide, the day always fixed for departure. It wonld be hard to imag- . ine a scene of gtvater local interest. Hie numerous vessel lie at anchor a few hundred yards froru the mainland, while hundreds -of smaller craft of every description, independent of the regtilarlj- organized tenders, ply inces santly between the little fleet and the shore, bringing on board the crew, with their outfits. The noise of the mates and captains, giving hoarse orders through their speaking trumpets, the shouts of sailors hailing recognized comrades on board of neighboring barks, ami the ever shifting groups of prettily attired Breton maids and matrons assembled on the long, curving quay, and the rocks and clifis, to see, some of tLtm for- the last time, the faces of their loved ones, forms a scene at once picturesque and sympathetic. The time comes for the last leave taking to be over, and the last tearful adieu to be spoktn, for at an appointed w"n t.nj iiiAu ui lijc uevt, nearly four thousand men in all, must be on board. - At a given signal the white sails, lite the pinions of sea-gulls, are spread to the winds, the anchor is raised, every fag is dipped, -and the vessels are headed -westward whilst the crews, with uncovered heads, as the sound of saluting car.non from the Solidor Tower dies away, raise their voices in aXarew-fcH-lrf era! "Ave Maris St- lis.

No reply was heard from the sailors in the boat, and they rowed silently to the quay, and step ping on tho staging, were surrounded. Foremost in the pushing throng was the comely peasant girl, and I heard her ask again for "her Eugene."' Ono of the fishermen said something to her, and she fell fainting on the wet land ing. Strong- and tender arms carried her away. It was her brother she asked after, I learned afterward. lie had been lost During October, and nntil far into November, the Terrenevaughs come sailing into St. Malo harbor, and the glad reunions and scenes of sorrow are repeated. The old medieval town, tho chief city of Ana of Brittany, takes on a modern, bustling, commercial look. The cargoes of the returning fleet are unloaded on the quays, which arc piled high with bales of codfish. It is not uncommon, when, during the fishing season, the vessel is in dan ger, for the crew to vow to the Holy Virgin that if they are brought safely through tho peril, they will make a pclerinage, or pilgrimage, to some chapel, and offer up a special thanks giving service. This vow is always strictly carried ont on their return. The most ingenious sailor on board carves on the homeward voyage a per fect representation of their" ship. No matter how clumsy or ugly it may be, the model is as exact as his skill can make it, even to the blocks and pullers. On the day fixed for the pclerinage, the crew, headed by the sailor who made it, carrying the model, form in proces sion, and. bare-footed, bare-headed and in their shirtsleeves, march to the chapel. Their families go with them, the priest is in readiness, and high mass is performed. When the services are orex. the miniature ship is left swinging in the church. There is not a Roman Catholic Church in all Brittany that does not contain sme of these tiny vessels. The Chap elle de l'Epine at St. Briae has more, probably, than any other. They .are always suspended from the ceiling by invisible cords, and seem to the ob server to be a miniature fleet floating ia mid air. L. V. Bradford, in Youth's Companion. -v-: r rr-t. CANCER CAN BE CURED. Operations Serrln In Every Case to Pro long Life Indefinitely. The question whether or not cancel is curable by operation is one of vita importance to those who may have the disease. It is popularly supposed tc be incurable, but statistics prove thai it is not so. In estimating the valut of operations for cancer we must con sider the duration of the disease wheD left to itself. Paget, in 139 cases, gives the duration of life in seventy-five noi operated upon as forty-eight months, while in the remaining sixty-four, where one or more operations had been performed, the life-average was fifty-two months. Siblev. in eisrhtv-four cases. tnakes the average thirty-two months where excision was practiced. The longest duration of life in cases not operated upon is twelve years; in those operated upon, eighteen years. While these statistics go to prove that opera tion prolongs life, they do not prove an ultimate cure. Dr. Oldekop shows in his report that out of 229 cases where operations had been pe-formed twenty three recovered. Dr. Willard Parker believed in operations for the disease. In a paper read before the Medical Journal Association in September, 1873, he reports fourteen cases of cure by excision, the patients being in good health at the ends of periods varying from three to twenty-seven years. A mass of statistics might be brought to show that in many instances cancer has been radically cured, and in other cases life has been indefinitely pro longed by the use of the knife. A few special cases will serve to show this. Dr. V eir reports a case in which the right breast, was amputated by Dr. James K. Hood in 18o6. In 1867 Dr. fost amputated the left breast. In Lr. Weir removed a recurrent growth from the right side, and again in 1877 and 1880, the patient finallv dy uig oi uie aisea3e twentr-nve vears after its first appearance. Dr. Frank H. Hamilton operated upon a patient who survived the excision twenty years, and another patientof his whose breast was entirely removed, survived the operation for ten years. Cases of this description Wight be multiplied Br. Shrady; General Grant's physician, claims that the disease is organic and in no way Hereditary. He believe-- that its origin is local, and is therefore removable, and that the constitution becomes affected only secondarily bv a moreoriess widespread dissemination of original cancer germs. The failure i one excision 10 enect a cure in no wise disconcerts him. The disease is insidious, and a careful microscopic ex amination is necessary to follow its va rious ramifications. Where the growth is not in close proximity to the vital or gans, operation after operation may be tried with impunity. In the case of General Grant, the entire throat was affected and an operation meant cer tain death, otherwise an operation would have been tried. It is an excep tion ior more than one member of a family to become the victim of cancer. In fact it may be confidently said that no human being can be sure of escap ing the disease until he has passed the age of its occurrence, -w,hich is when his vital machinery is entirely worn out. In other words fte can never be considered fortunate in respect to can cer until he is dead tf. T. Mad aud Express.

This weave f inns the foundation for many of tho novel and beautiful effects In the new sl'.ki, no", however, to the exclusion of satin, gros grain, and a twilled weave similar to surah or satin merreilleux. The popular fancy for stripes and plaid is prominent i l a'.l the noveltfe in silks; and plush effort-, in both frise and coupe, abound, sometimes used separately, sometimes together. A dis tinctive sample or tho la'.ter class has block plaids two inches square, al ternately of cut and uncut plush, separated by bayadere stripes of two or three threads in failla weave, and perpendicular stripes of tho same width but of a contracting color of plush. The combinations of color in this style are varied; one is of beige ami a beau tiful shade of dark blue, the separating lines of old-gold. The colors aro dis losed in perpendicular strip;, so that te color effect is' of stripes, while the plaid effect is imparted by the weaving coupe and frise, which occurs al ternately every two inches, bat in the same line all across the material. This would bs used for a panel, front breadth, or even the entire skirt in com bination with either blue or beige silk or fine camds'-hair cashmere. Another striking sample has, on a heliotrope satin ground, two plush stripes, each five inches wide, formed f narrow stripes in old-gold, dark reil. bronze-green aad vieille ms:, of differ ent widths and repeated in different ro tation, and woven about three inches from the selvedges.. Dawn the mid He of the width, the satin surface is striped with single threads of chenille n each of the colors in the plush stripes, having the frise weave at inter vals; and there are bavadere stripes of satin, repeating the colors of the che nille, which form plaids. Tiiis could le used in combmat on with heliotrope. or with any one of the colors in the plush, the dark" for handsome visitin;r costumes, and the light for reception and cam age use. Another style has a failla ground in a dark shade of hdiofrope that dis plays admirably a novel eflvct in beige colered cut plush, which is in crosswise and lot.gthwise stripes forming plaids. the p.ush not solid, but woven diagon ally in chen:l!e-like threads. S ill an other design is in three colors and ha uncut plush of two leniths on a sur.ih m-ound; and yet another has strips at least three inches wide .of golden brown arm ure, alternating with stripes of equal width formed of tiny checks of beige-colored frise on a scarlet satin ground. Ia fact, the combination and variation of the different weaves, in strTpes and plaids of various siziM and widths, is almost endless.
