Captain too, found it difficult to unload his old
ideas upon the subject, and to take perfectly new
cargo on board with that rapidly which the CIR
cumstances required or without iumbllng and con
founding the two. Consequently, instead OF putting
on his coat and waistcoat with anything like the
impetuosity that could alone have kept pace with
Walters mood, he declined to invest himself WITH
those garments at all at present and informed
Walter that on such serious matter he must be
allowed to bite his nails a bit.
It's an old habit Of mine Walr, said the Cap
tain, any time these fifty year. When you see
Ned Cutie bite his nails Walr, then you may
know that Ned Cuttles aground"
Thereupon the Captain puthis iron hook between

wisdom and profundity that was the very concen-
tration and sublimation Of all philosophical reiiec

ties until they were quite settled

What's his name Captain Cutie inquired
Walter, determined to be interested in the Cap
