Refreshed they arose and continued
and soon found that the path began 10
mount again, which appeared to them a
sign that they were approaching the other
island, and soon it grew so steep that they
mounted il with great difficulty, though
Maxwell found it less fatiguing than the
descent or level ground had been, on &C
count of his lame leg.
A few hours steady climb, which had
taken them again into complete darkness,
brought them to the surface of the earth
again, and they walked forth into the
binding sunshine, on the side of cliff
facing toward the south and several hun
dred feet above the sea level.
Below them was a sloping hillside,
which met the sea, and it was, like all
these islands, mass Of black desolation,
arid and burning hot in the sunshine.
The two weary travellers went back into
the mouth of the cave, which at this place
was something like hundred feet wide
and tapering to funnel like shape in the
back, which showed how the wind blew
in there forever through the long passage.
They saw by the sun that it was almost
sunset, SO they decided they had beeh al
most twenty-four hours making that
passage, and they decided to sleep now
until morning, keeping watch and watch
SO that their lamps might not go out, and
then begin their exploration of this island
early. They slept we'll and when the
first rays Of light shone over the ocean
they were on the alert TO begin their voy-
age of discovery
George climbed to the highest peak and
surveyed the island as well as he could,
but there was no sign of life nor habta-
ton, though he had heard the sailors on
the ship tell of q lawlcss band of men who
inhabited one OF this group, and also of
one man so dreadful and fendish that he
was hardly regarded as human.
This creature they said had been
malefactcr and lad escaped from Justice
in an open boat, and probably owing to
the proverb that, '.thc devil helps his own"
he had reached this island alive. Years
after a ship had stopped for water and
found him there, and ne told them OF
place where they could get supply, and
then when they went where he told them
he destroyed their boat and Killed them
all one by one As they returned. Ii
was said that often ships would COME
there hoping TO find water, ana lie would
delude them with false hopes, Kill the Inen
or disable the boats or mislead tie cap
tains by telling them Of movements of the
currents which would cause their tlestruc-
ton, and when he saw the ship floating OF
on one Of the treacherouS, smooth and
currents he would laugh and
mock them cs long as they could hear his
TOice

ne ship some sCcG5 nd potatoes. and Ind

found By examining the bottom aud sides

there were no fine ashes mt The bottom of
any of them. whereas the one whore they
we're had several inches in thickness under
foot.
How far they walked or how much time
they took neither knew, though Maxwell
judged from the lamps that they had been
about nine or ten hours under ground or
under water, when they came TO Il place
where it was quite light. There was no
crevicc, 10 outlet of any description, nor
could there be said to be light from any
one spot, yet there was diiIused light all
about them, as If, which was probably the
case, thu upper part at least of the passage
they were travelling was of sort of fiinty
volcanic glass, which allowed few verti-
cal rays OF the sun to penetrate. There
was nothing striking to notice along the
roof, bottom or sides OF the cavern but it
permitted them TO walk little faster,
though by this time they were so tired
that they could hardly have run had their
lives depended upon it. The air was
pure, though damp, and this was a great
help to them. They sat down to rest and
trim their lamps anew. and to eat and
drink, wondering how long it might be
before they could reach the end Of this
seemingly eternal road.

Waiting and Getting.

1t has been said that the reason why so
few people get what they want in this world
is because they do not want it hard enough.
There is profound truth at the bottom of
this conceit. Earnest striving and perse-
verance are rare qualities. A little struggle,
and then falling off; a few faint efforts,
and then despair. This is the usual story
of attempts to "get anything" whether it
be a physical, mental, or spiritual good.
But to long for thing so strongly that for
the sake of its attainment one can conquer
obstacles, live down opposition, ignore dis
couragement, and work persistently and
through years of trial and obscurity toward
the fulfllment of hope-is not this the
record of all grand achievements and the
history of all heroic lives? Many more
wishes might be realized if people were
willing to pay this price for them. Any
thing worth having in this world is dear
including experience. Genius itself has
been defined as only unlimited patience. or
an endless capacity for hard work.-Re-

Habit of POliteness.

1t is never too early to begin to be
polite. | know little girl, who is only
twelve years old now, who for at least
five years has written letter acknowl-
edging any courtesy received that she
could not acknowledge by voice. She
always answers all letters within rea-
sonable time; every little gift, no matter
how small, is acknowledged at once,
and this has become such habit that
if anything prevents her writing, it dis
tresses her greatly. Being polite is as
much of habit as is cleaning her nails
or brushing her teeth. No one will
ever hear that little girl, when she grows
up to be woman, say that she had no
time to write letter if it is impolite to
neglect writing it. No one will ever
hear her say that she has no time to re-
turn call or acknowledge any social
attention. She will make time, for she
will feel that it is as much part of her
duty to acknowledge and return a social
attention as it is to keep her house
clean, or care for her children, or do
any of the things that our mothers have
to do.-Ihe Interior.
