troit boy, after finishing the last chapter of
a book called The pleasures of the deep"
pleaded with his father to let him ship
aboard lake schooner. The old man
smiled grim smile, and in a few days the
boy was on the rolling deep, having shipped
as a greenhorn on vessel in the lumber
trade. lie sailed to Saginaw, came down
aud crossed 10 Toledo, aud next day he ap-
peared in Detroit, lame aud stiff, his throat
sore, one eye nearly shut, and feeling
of humbleness running all through him.

the boy entered the house. Yes, father;
want to saw all the wood for winter, bring
in all the coal, clean out the cellar and paint
the barn, and you needn't give me but two
meals day" "Don't yon like sailing ?"
Father, You don't begin to realize any
thing about it. The captain sailed right
along on Sunday the same as any other day,
and | believe he swore even harder There
wasn't a single night when all of us got off
to bed at nine O'Clock, aud there wasn't a
day that he didn't boss us around and break
in on us every time we got to reading any
thing good | like land, father aud | wish

the saw, which was running, caught his left
