then cast out, and then the line made
fast to the capstan. As We neared the
fish the Gu disappeared aud all eagerly

tightened, the float disappeared and
the headway OF the boat was checked

He had about seventy.fve yards OF line

over the bow Of tho steamer. The
ladies' then got under shelter and all
hands helped to hold that line. The
fellow, when he failed to eat us up,
made for the ocean and fairly made the
waters foam. After about a miles run
he began to tire, and the boat was
headed for the beach on Jekel island.
Gradually We pulled in the line until
the boat touched the beach, and then
one OF the hands waded ashore, taking
tho end OF the line with him, which he
made fast TO q stump and came back for

quAinted. The formal process Of intro
duction had not taken place, and of
course they could not speak, for that

seven years without look of recog-
milton. One winters day they met
suddenly on a slippery corner.
The feet of one went astray suddenly,
tripped the others, and their owners
rolled over and over down hill until
checked by the gutter. Apologies were
exchanged, hands were shook, and the
two men became acquainted. Tho
reader may help himself to the moral.
Another story points in the same direc-
