steered into the Receiving Hospital.
Jim was badly in need of Immediate re-

his fgurehead Both eyes were bunged up
and his lower lip hung down like a folded

An irregular zig-zag cash, extending across
his sunburned brow. looked like the picture
OF lightning flash, and one of his ears had
been partly torn from its fasteuir gs. His
nose was peeled from top to bottom and
laid over on one side of his face, presenting
front and side view at one and the same
time.
I've got a pretty good load aboard, but
IA like to be hauled out anyhow. Kin you
fix me? he asked o. Night Steward Free

Freeman said he thought he could, and
soon had Jim's hulk dry-docked on the
operating table. He first went to work on
the battered nose and tried to get 1t on an
even keel, but that member seemed to have
been firmly driven in sideways into the
features OF the able seaman. The doctor

An Incident Which Goes to Show Julian
Hawthorne May he Right.
Sitting opposite to me in an elevated train
the other day there were two deaf-mutes. a
stalwart stylish young man and handsome
young woman, engaged in conversation.
With skill. grace and vivacity the fingers
aud features Of the mute pair were brought
into play in the dialogue. Now it looked to
me as il they were holding all argument;
then 1t looked as if he were giving an ac-
count of something; at one time their faces
were radiant while communicating with
each other through silent maneuvers, at an
other time thoughtful mood appeared in
the cOuntenance, or again resolute spirit,
or yet again some other mental condition.
Perhaps all my differences as to the nature
OF their sign language were erroneous, but
/ stand ready to wager nickel that some
Of them were right, as they were founded
on analogy. 1t is Julian Hawthorne who
maintains that the time is coming when
mankind will cease to indulge in vocal
speech, which, according to his opinion, Is
very inadequate exponent of thought, and
poor substitute for the subtler methods of
expression to which mutes are accustomed.
