tor, when 1t was observed that the cap to sleep, throughout the night watches he was necessarily arriving on deck, and for whole half hour at time he would stand right in front of the pinnacle, ob- scuring it to the sight of the man at the wheel, and keeping his eyes fixed upon the card with the lifeless air of person acting in his sleep, Atnoon one day the latitude was found to be about six miles north. There was pleasant breeze blowing off the port beair, and the clip per keel was made by the log to be slid ing through it at some seven miles in the hour The captain, putting down his sextant, walked aft to the pinnacle and stood before it, holding his watch in his hand. There was light as of fever in the gaze he rooted upon the dial plate.
 Suddenly he called on the second mate who had charge: Hands to the port braces. Get the yards trimmed for a westerly course. Down below" The little ship came around with the men rounding in upon the braces too aston ished to sing out, The captain walked the deck chafng his haruls and chuck ling. "Now, sir, we have 1t, he cried to the second mate. Have what, sir" asked the astonished officer. 'The Equator, sir!" roared tho captain. "rhe Equator;" cried the mate, looking around him. "Yes, sir, true as hair by the magnetic bearings-a fore and aft line, sir. Keep to that course, dye hear. Not an inch of to port or starboard, or quicker than you can say Jack Robinson I'll blow your brains out"
 The second mate, glancing through the skylight, observed the chief officer | in the cabin, and with slight motion of his head summoned him on deck. The man arrived, with face of wonder, gazing aloft and around, and not little amazed to find the ship bound to the eastern American seaboari instead of | New Zealand This is 10 be an achieve ment, sir" shouted the captain to hiul, "thatll rank me foremost among the most famous men this century has pro | duced." The mate viewed him with q | stupid look of interrogation. "Sir, cried the captain, approaching him with an expression of ecstasy on his singular countenance, "the keel Df this bark will be the first that ever ploughed the line of the Equator without hairbread th oi deviation fog one thousand miles at least and mark you this hc cried, drawing himself erect, and exten ling his cleIlchsd fist at the mate, If 1 catch the vessefi head off her course by the smallest frac ton of a point, will blow out tine lrainl of the man who has charge of the decl at the time

Naming Twins.

A three legged table, a rickety chair and bed on the floor comprised all the furniture. Dirt reign ed supreme. and the ashes from the fire place reached half across the floor. The woman, with matted hair and 8 squint which gave her an evil expression, feared her babies would die, and had at least so much knowledge of Christianity as to desire baptism for them
 When asked to name them she said that as they were twins she would like them called Cain and Abel, whom she supposed were the twin brothers of our first mother Ipninted out her mistake, and remonstrated, moreover, upon the name of Cain as unfit and of evil omen. She knew absolutely nothing of the fratricide. A girl of ten in the room, upon my refusal of Cain, exclaimed; Have it lsril. motherl" l chose, how ever, the name of David and put m end to the discussion. Cor. London TitcBits.

Fire Medicine Go.

The rooms themselves are on the ground floor, three wee closets into which scarcely score of people could be crammed; but the courtyard is large, and into that there crowd some sixty or eighty ballet girls, jolly, noisy creatures, full of fun and mischief, teasing any un- happy man who may fall into their mis- chievous clutches. They tickle him, they pull his hat over his eyes and gen. orally make his life burden to him. No one can control the turbulent band but Perier himself, who, with an Olym- plan frown and stern and resonant cry of "Silence" contrives occasionally to bring the impish lot into comparative order.-Paris Cor.

Tho Ballet Girls Headquarters.

The most curious of all the agencies is certainly the ballet girls agency. There come all the dancers of the conti- nent, and from thence they are shipped off all over the world. The ballet is considered 10 be in its decadence, but that is a great mistake. There have never been so many dancers as there are today. Perier has 3,000 addresses on his list. The agency is an odd sight when the engagements are being made.
