As the boy went out the grocerymSan
sat for several minutes thinking OF the
change that had come over the bad boy,
and wondered what had brought it about,
and then he went to the door to watch HIM
as he wended his way across the street with
his head down, as though in deep thought,
and the groceryman said to himself: "Ehat
boy is not as bad as some people think he
is" and then he looked around and saw a
sign hanging up in front of the store,
written on piece of box cover with a blue
pencil, "Spoiled canned ham and tongue,

AT SEA.

One does not seem really to have got
out of doors till he goes to sea. On the
land he is shut in by the hills, or the
forests, or more or less housed by the sharp
lines of his horizon But at sea he finds
/ the roof taken off the walls taken down !;
he is no longer in the hollow of the earth S
hand, but upon its naked back, with moth
ing between him and the immensities. He
is in the great cosmic out-of-doors, as much
so as if voyaging to the moon or to Mars.
An astronomic solitude and vacuity sur
rounds him; his only guides and landmarks
are stellar; the earth has disappeared; the
horizon has gone he has only the sky and
its orbs left; this cold, vitreous, blue-black
liquid through which the ship plows is not
water, but some denser form of the cosmic
ether He can now see the curve Of the
sphere which the hills hid from him; he
can study astronomy under improved con-
ditions. Ifhe was being borne through the
interplanetary spaces on an immense shield,
his impressions would not perhaps be much
different. He would find the same vacui-
ty, the same blank or negative space, the
same empty, indefinite, oppressive out-of-
doors.
For it must be admitted that voyage at
sea is more impressive to the Imagination
than to the actual sense. The world is
left behind; all standards of size, Of mag
nitude, of distance, are vanished; there is
no size, no form, no prospective; the uni
verse has dwindled to a little circle Of
crumpled water, that journeys with you
day after day, and to which you seem
bound by some enchantment The sky
becomes a shallow, close-ftting dome, or
else pail of cloud that seems ready to de-
scend upon you. You cannot see or real
ize the vast and vacant surrounding; there
is nothing to define it or set it off. Three
thousand miles of ocean space are less i'm
pressive than three miles bounded by rug
ged mountain walls Indeed, the grandeur
of form, of magnitude, of distance, of pro-
portion, ETC., are only upon shore A voy-
age across the Atlantic is ten day sail
through vacancy. There is no sensible
progress; you pass no fixed points,. Is it
the steamer that is moving, or is it the sea?
or is it all dance and illusion of the
troubled brain? Yesterday, to-day, and
tomorrow, you are in the same parenthesis
of nowhere. The three hundred or more
miles the ship daily makes is ideal, not
real. Every night the stars dance and reel
there in the same place amid the rigging;
every morning the sun comes up from be-
hind the same wave, and staggers slowly
across the sinister sky. The eye becomes
a-hunger for form, for permanent lines,
for horizon wall to lift up and keep of
the sky, and give it sense of room. One
understands why sailors become an imagi-
native and superstitious race; it is the
reaction from this narrow horizon in which
they are put-this ring of fate surrounds
and oppresses them. They escape by in
voking the aid of the supernatural In the
sea itself there is far less to stimulate the
imagination than in the varied forms and
colors of the land. How cold, how mer-
ciless, how elemental it looks - Century.
