Imagine yourself in a ship at an
Choir looking west or straight in front
of you. There is a broad expanse of
sea a little to your right hand, behind
you viii be the rugged coast, and to
your left the long, narrow ford be-
tween the islands and the main land
that the steamer has just traversed
You watch the sun as 1t slowly, slowly
sets; the islands and the coasts look
like a dark rich purple, and the
shadows cast by the ships masts grow
longer and longer.
After bit, when the sun has sunk,
apparently twelve feet from the hori-
zon, it stops and seems to remain sta
hOnary for about twenty minutes; then
the very sea-gulIs hide away, while the
air all of a sudden strikes chilly. Each
one has an awed, expectant feeling.
Soon the sun rises very slowly once
again, and the yellow clouds change
with his uprising to even greater
beauty, first to the paIest primrose
and then to a blush pink. The sky.
which was just now rose-coIor, be-
comes gray, then pale emeraId-green,
and lastly blue. Rock after rock
stands out, caught by the suns rays
and the reign of day has begun once

A Famous Portrait of Webster.

Everybody viii remember that pOr-
trait Of Webster in which he stands
with one hand resting on a table, q
bust of Washington being visible in
the background. The original of the
picture, at least the oil painting from
which the head and upper part of the
body were engraved-the rest being
painted subsequently-is now here in
Boston, and 1 have had the privilege
Of seeing it. The artist was MI.
Thomas Bailey Lawson, q native of
NewburypOrt, who died last June at
Lowell. It was finished at Washing
ton, in Mr.. Webster's house, in Febru-
airy, 1914, or at least the last sitting
was given there. On the day APP
pointed for it Mr.. Webster begged the
artist to let him off, in order that he
might join a party of his friends who
we're going down the Potomac in a
Government vessel by invitation of
Commodore Stockton. But Mr.. Law
son, having written that he would be
home by q certain day, insisted upon
holding Mr.. Webster to his promise.
The latter came again to Mr. Lawson.
this time accompanied by one or two
members of the Cabinet, who entreated
that Mr.. Webster might be released;
but Mr.. Lawson, with rare hrmness Of
character; still refused, and the famous
statesman, being quite as determined
to keep his word, his friends went off
on their party of pleasure, leaving him
behind. Late In the afternoon came
the report Of a terrible accident. The
excursion thus narrowly missed bv
Mr. Webster was that memorable one

Nitro-GlEcerine 40 Drnamite.

Nitro-glycerine was first discovered
In 1647 by SOmbrerO, a chemical stu
dent IN Paris. Tt is made by treating
glycerine with concentrated suIphuric
and nitric acids. Except as a hOmoo-
pathic remedy for headaches it found
no practical application until 1864,
when Alfred Nobel. a Swede, of Ham
burg, began its manufacture for use as
an explosive on a large scale. Though
he sacrificed a brother to the terrible
agent which he created, he persevered
until he found later some safer forms
In which the explosive could be used.
Nitro glycerine is a clear, oily, color
less, Odorless, and slightly sweet liquid.
Tt can be exploded by the application
Of flame, or under strong blow o.
shock. 1t IS not soluble IN water, and
is therefore useful in submarine opera
lions, and blasting In wet ground. No
bel also introduced the use of dyna-
mite, which Is made by saturating
finely powdered sick or infusoriaI

certain rules that he has adopted for
his guidance and annoyance. He is
sick half his days from the effect of
what he eats and drinks, and from the
exercise he takes to encourage his
health, while he shOrtens the lives of
his friends by urging them to become
cranks, even as he is a crank.
He IS never free from some inhrnaity,
and if he can quire two infirmities at
once his dream of heaven Is almost
realized. AS soon as he gets one weak
part of his system renovated some
other part breaks down and he has to
go to work on that. It may be men
toned incidentally that he never does
anything for his head, which is the
weakest part about him. His blood
troubles him much. He drinks acidu-
lOus beverages to make it thin and lies
on his back with his head toward the
north to make it circulate properly.
When he imagines that his liver is
acting in a reprehensible manner he
stimulates or props it up with horse
back ride before breakfast, and If his
stomach does not perform its functions
with accuracy and dispatch he floods it
with cold water before going to bed, or
irrigates it with seidlitz powder the
moment he gets up in the morning.
He is always doing or taking some
thing to head off some infirmity. An
ticipated ills trouble him most. His
favOrite maxim is that about the ounce
of prevention and the pound and a
half of cure. When he is not engaged
in fOrtifying his system with Graham
bread or oatmeal he is developing some
weak muscle with dumbbeIls, or trying
to create an appetite by saving half a
cord Of wood before the dew is off the
grass. He wears cork sOIes in his
shoes, claiming that they act as rheum-
attic insulatOrs. He is very. regular in
his habits. He cuts his hair according
to the season, cleans his teeth by the
almanac, and takes exercise by the
clock.
He is very fond of explaining how
much phosphorus there is in corn, fat
producing qualities in cheese, and sac
charine matter in wheat. His talk at
table is about the dreadful adultera-
ton of food, and he makes his friends
nervous and sick by telling them of the
dreadful things that golden sirup and
butter and beer are made of, and of
the gloomy effects that hard-b boiled
eggs have on the organs Of the idiot
who eats them. He keeps himself sick
trying to get well, wretched in efforts
to obtain ease, and goes down to an
early grave from the effects of trying
to lengthen his days. To sum all up,
he is a concentrated nuisance, with the
redeeming feature, however, that he
Furnishes himself more than he does
anybody else.
