The die was cast.

Ii recaptured, death attended with ex-
quisite torture. would be my fate; and
running at the top of my speed, l buried
myself deeper and deeper in the depths
of the jungle.
Rejecting on my position, l resolved
to make the best of my way to the beach,
seize a sampan if possible. and gain the
protection of the ships in the harbor.
Rolling the pearls and diamonds care
fully in portion of the cloth about my
body. and grasping my blood-stained
weapon firmly in my hand. | again re-
newed the struggle for life and liberty.
The sun was fast disappearing as |
stole cautiously out of the edge of the
wood and gazed far out to sea over the
bright sparkling waves.
Some distance ahead of me. hauled
we'll on the sandy shore, were row of
dark looking objects, the sight of which
made my heart bound with joy.
They were sampans. Crouching down
nearly to level with the sand, wormed
myself along. and to my intense joy at
last laid my hand on the gunwhale Of the
sampan nearest to me.
Throwing all my energy, strength and
coura into the effort, I sent the light
cookie shell rasping overth sand, and as
it fioated from the beach I jumped in
and grasped the paddle.
In an instant all was noise, hustle and
confusion, the sentinels had heard the
noise.
As if my magic, large piles of wood
and infamable matter were ignited, cast.
ing bright glare over the water.
A cloud of arrows and spears flew
through the air as I bounded off, and {
crowd of dark yelling objects were il
full pursuit.
I redoubled my efforts the splash Of
the paddles grew fainter and fainter
until they ceased altogether. Throwing
quick glance over my shoulder, saw
at least fifty sampans not hundred
yards in my rear, lying, rocking on the
water stationery.
A dozen more strokes sent me gliding
alongside the sloop of war, which the
pirates did not dare to approach; and il
as few words as possible I related my
strange and eventful story. Twenty
minutes afterwards, the sloop opened
with her broadside guns on the town
throwing grape and canister, with al
occasional shell, till every yell, groar
and cry was silenced.
The next morning not a vestige of the
village remained all was n smoking
heap of ruins, and another nest of plra
ties was broken up.
A year afterwards I landed on my
own native land, no longer sailor, bu
a gentleman of wealth.

The Turning Points of Life.

What we call turning point" is SIM
ply an occasion which sums up and brings
to result previous training. Acciden-
tai circumstances are nothing except to
men who have been trained to take ad-y
vice of them. Erskine made himself IA
nous when the chance came to him of
making great forensic display; but I'M
less he had trained himself for the
chance, the chance would have made him
ridiculous. There is the story told of
some gentleman, who. on a battlefield
happening to bow with much grace to an
officer who addressed him, canon ball
just went through his hair, and took off
the head of one behind him. The Off
Ger, when he saw the marvellous escape,
justly observed that no man ever lost by
poiteness. There is man in Berk-
shire, England. who has park with
walled frontage of seven miles, and he
tells of a beautiful operation which made
nice little addition to his fortune. He
was in Australia when the first discover
les of gold were made. The miners
brought in their nuggets and took them
to the local banks. The bankers were
little nervous about the business, uncer-
tain about the quality of the gold, and
waited to see its character established.
This man had taste for natural sciences
and knew something about metallurgy.
He tried each test, solid and fluid, salts
fed himself of the quality of the gold,
and then, with all the money he had, or
could borrow, he bought as much gold as
might be, and showed pfoftsof $780,
600 in the course of a day ort~o. His
''luck" was observation aRb knowledge.
and happy tact in applying them. The
late Judge Hume went out to India, and
while he was still a young man he ae-
oumulated considerable fortune. He
applied himself to the hard work of mast
ering the native language, and turned
the knowledge to most profitable account.
On one occasion, when all the gunpow-
der had failed the British army, he sue
ceeded in scraping together a large
amount of the necessary material and
manufacturing it for the troops. When
he returned to England he canvassed with
SO much ability and earnestness for a
scat In the East India directorate, that
he might carry out his scheme of reform,
that, though he failed to get the vote Of
a certain large proprietor of stock, he
won his daughters heart and made
prosperous marriage. And marriage is,
after all, the ''luckiest bit of luck, when
it is all that it should be. There is then,
in truth, no luck" There are turning
points in life, moments, critical moments,
that are worth more than years never
theless q great occasion is only worth to
a man what his antecedents have en-
abled him to make of it, and our bust
ness in life is to prepare for these su.
preme moments, these hours when life
depends on the decisions of the instant
Whatever of truth is yelled under the
popular idea of luck and chance is, right
considered, an incentive to the busiest
industry, not an excuse for folded hands
and idle dreams Frederick arnold.

THE practice for attempting to write

THE practice for attempting to write
prescriptions in Latin should be discard
ed. There are many objections to it
the doctor cannot write Latin, the drug
gist cannot read it, the patient does not
understand it. Drugs are frequently mis-
named, or imper:ectly defined then the
dispenser makes a guess, or uses his
discretion, which amounts to about the
same thing, and his customer goes away
in happy ignorance, till he discovers too
late that he has paid his money across
the druggist counter for dose of GER
tain death.-Neeo York Times.

THERE is one man is Faribault Who
will not try 20 sl,cL1e cigar and milk at
the same time. He did that same
thing. the Democrat says, Wednesday
evening, when, becoming absorbed in bis
cigar or the milking, he lowered his head
until the red-hot end of his cigar touched
the cows flank, when she gave one jump
into the air and came down with both
hind feet in the milk pail-then she
Strengthened out those legs like an army
mule. and the gentleman shot across the
barn floor and sat down on the corner of
broad.axe. while the pail started for
the house.

Almost Il fatal Acciaent.----

rumor was current yesterday morning
that Mr.. L. y. Lyon who had been
plotting !ambcr ali day Tuesday over
the Rapids, had met with fatal acci.
dent, by falling between two cribs,
smashing his ribs AMI otherwise in1ict-
ing very serious injuries to his person.
An investigation revealed the fact that
lie was slightly bruised, but not at all
seriously. The person originating such
a falsehood Dug ht to be severely punlsil-
ell. Our people have twice before
been duped by q portable fool residing
a mile Oh two from town who takes
pleasure in manufacturing lies out Of

lookout he will be leaving town BY rail
