WHAT THE WILD WAVES WERE SAYING
One day last week, three young men inspired
by love of the picturesque, went down to the
shore to hear what the wild waves were saying
and to toy little with old oceans tawny name.
In order to command a view of the seething
pillows and all that sort of thing they took po-
stion ON large black rock standing, as they
thought, far out of reach of the 'cruel hungry
waves" and gave themselves up to the contem-
plation of the seas misty grandeur. CHATS
about the way to put it, isn't it?) But the
'reacherous element justified its descriptive
eplthet' One crested bilow rolling high above
i.' ieiiows' swept ove- the rock quite engulfng
its occupants, and wetting them to the skin.
As 'hey were there in pursuit of the pictures
que' anu poe tor the purpose of taking a salt
oath, their involuntary dip in the briny deep
nau n''ie relisn 1or them. Hereafter they will
eonfine themselves to poetical reservations of
the sea in storm, considering tbar, ro..1r,
preferable to the reality. '
