This was readily granted, and Brown spoke

In a few moments the lieutenant had
Browns story out, and much to the lattef's
qualification, granted q ready permission to
him. Itdid not take Brown long to run to

placed the medicine in the cabin orderly's
hands to be taken into the admiral room.

"Thank you, sir, an God help the admiral
to weather his trouble, is the prayer of all
the ship" said Brown, as the lieutenant
turned to enter the cabin.
There was no cessation in the storm that
evening. The gale howled through the rig
ging in wild, discordant tones; the great ship
iabored through the white capped noun
tains of water threatened to engulph her
with each burst of their storm whipped
crests Within the admirars cabin the Ar
gand lights, the comfortable furniture. and
the numerous evidences of the admiral's
wanderings over land and water, as displayed
in choice bric-a-brac and trimmings, gave

pleasing this wild night to those within. In
his stateroom lay the admiral, made COM
Portable by all that loving hands and willing
hearts could suggest BY his side sat his
son, who in quiet voice was recountlng to
his father the interview with Brown, and the
opposition met with from the doctors when
the idea of giving this new medicine was
broached.
"You were sleeping at the time, father,
and therefore missed laughable scene,
made 30, in spite of your. condition., by the
this tnew-fangled stuff this patent liquid
which they declared with their consent
should never be given to you. Well, l cut
the matter short by saying that would take
all the responsibility, and with your permis-

when I found you awake, and now you are
under way with the first bottle as per direc-

will do you good, premonition filling my
heart that at last we have found the means
of arresting the burning fever and hacking
cough which have been troubling you 80
much"
The admiral's reply was cut short by a
severe spell of coughing, during which he
spat blood, and when finished sank back eI-
hausted. But the grateful look which he be-

at first sight dubbed as possible but doubt
full means of doing him any good. But lay

his sons request, and now, after this last
spell, admitted that the effect of the dose
had softened the dreaded severity of the

Three weeks later found the Nonad max

and prolonged weather she had rounded the
Cape and was now standing in the harbor
for the purpose of raanclins 3 "a. a.a-rutorfI1s.
To one given to the study of human Gnea-
ments the faces of those aboard the flagship
this bright morning would have afforded IN
finite scope for such pursuit. But the source
of each mans happiness flowed from the
same fountain of grateful JOY: The beloved
admiral was the cause of this. And why!
If you could have seen the admiral this
bright morning, dear reader, your answer
would have been easily found In his face:
changed man was he. Victory was percneo
on his guidons! the dread enemy was slowly

bottles the admiral had turned the flank OF

driving him off the field with power which
astounded the doctors and filled all hearts
with JOY and thankfulness..
What was this then that had won the VIC
tory for the seaman Brown, and was now
leading the admirals shattered forces to the
same grand result2 When asked this CUES
ton by one OF his Objects on duty, IN Mon

replied, II would that in letters of gold, and

shown, coupled with the genius who discov.:

Well might the admiral sing the praises OF
from fatal illness. When the ship anchored
the first commission for the admirals s son to
execute was large purchase of DR.. Pieroe,s
Golden Medical Discovery, which, as the ad-
|, miral sadly admitted, he had seen in every
port the world around and had only admired
as an evidence of the energy and enterprise
of an American who could thus place hls
Golden Medical Discovery In every nook
and corner of the globe. But now he was
one more to testify to the wonderful power
of this medicine, and certainly dld SO IN
Montevideo, by praising it up to all the hign
officials who visited him.
A week later and the Nonnad sailed for
Boston direct. What the condition OF the
admiral was when she arrived there IS shown
in his letter above. Let it be recorded to the
credit of the doctors on the flagship tnat

The above, reader, is an outline OF the
story, spun by the admiral to his friend when
they met at the dinner. We will not touch
on other portions of his interesting recital
of his cruise in general, our aim being to re-
