poor boy have some breakfast, papa.
He looks so sick and hungry, and
mother says she don't believe he meant
any harm"
Capt. Drew exclaimed: "Go away,
my child; you and your mother
shouldn't meddlc in ship affairs" then
half ashamed of his humanity conduct
he took the child's plump little hand,
and, turning to Bill, said: go forward
to the galley and tell the cook to give
you some grub. You deserve a sound
thrashing; but if you'll do your duty
around here I'll let you off this time.
But no shirlsing, mind, or you'll fare
worse next time"
AS he turned to go aft the captain
met his wifes gaze; there was CRATE
full look in her face. as If to say:
"Thanlt you for rcmemb boring that you
are n man and q father, and not al
coarse bully"
"Pshawl' muttered he, whats the
use of trying to keep up discipline on a
ship when there are women on board"
Then he gave the pet dog an inpatient
shove with his foot and proceeded to
sean the horizon through his sextant.
Capt. Drew had good deal Of human
nature in his makeup.
Bill soon found that getting starr
in the forecastle was rather worse than
being thrashed by his stepfather. He
had to stand lots Of rough chaff, hazing
and horseplay from the rough men who
composed the crew. This only stopped
when they saw him manfully take hold
with will and intelligence, ever the
hrst to spring into the rigging and reef
and furl with the best of them; for he
was large of his age and full of pluck
Thus matters passed on without I'M
usual incident until the ship got off the
pitch of Cape Horn. 1t was nasty
weather, thick and puffy, and about
the gray of morning, when the lookout
suddenly and fiercely shouted: Sail
no, right aboard of us on the lee bowl"
All hands sprang on deck, to see a
large ship plunging for them on the
starboard tack. The Golden Fleece"
was headed at once into the wind, but

when Did the "Glass AGE" I,crinq

AS far as research has been able to
determine, glass was in use 1000 years
before the birth of Christ, and was even
then not in its infancy by any manner
of means In the Slade collection at
the British museum there is the head of
lion nodded in glass, bearing the name
of an Egyptian king of the eleventh
dynasty. This is the oldest specimen
of pure glass bearing anything like a
date now known to exist. The inven-
ton now known as "bleezing," the
mode of vanishing pottery with thin
film of glass, is believed to date back
to tie first Egyptian dynasty. Proof of
this is found in the pottery beads. glass
glazed, found in the tombs of the age
above referred to. DR.. Schliemann
found bits of glass in his excavations ut
Mayccn@, though Homer does not men
ton it as n substance known in his
time. The most eminent Egyptologers
place the date OF the first use of glass at
period too remote to be given in
wears.

wonderfully vivid, clean cut and forci-
bic style of expression; every word hits
the mark.
The discourse which proved such a.
startling valentine to New York Off
Gals is not the first from DR. Park,
hurst's pulpit to stir this community.
Never before, however, has he
launched SO outspollen and effective a
dennnciation upon the rulers of ''this
rum-besotted town" On this occasion
he deals with notorious facts coupled
with prominent names, and uses
illustrations derived from his personal
experience in the local crusade against
vice. The real attitude of the city
government toward the prosecution of
places OF evil resort is thus terscly
stated; Every step that VIC take look

has to be taken directly in the teeth of

it was too late, for she was struck lust
aft of the forerigging, the sharp iron
stem Of the other vessel, which proved
to be an English clipper, cutting into
her side like knife going through
cheese. The Golden Fleece" imme-
diately began to sink. The two vessels
remained locked together moment
but when the stranger backed off the
Golden Fleece" went down with a
sudden lurch.
In that brief interval her crew
,swarmed pcllmell over the strangers
'bowsprit. leaving Capt Drew alone to
look after his wife and child He
could not possibly have saved both if
at that awful moment aid had not
come from an unexpected quarter.
Bill rushed to the aft cabin, regardless
of his own life, and snatched up little
Grace.
Look out for the lady. SIR" he cried
to the captain, ''and I'll take care of
the child"
Then holding Grace on his left arm
while she clasped her tiny hands
around his neck, he sprang up the
shrouds of the sinking ship and clam
bcrcd over the bowsprit of the other
vessel, followed by Capt. Drew carry
ing his fainting wife.
The next moment nothing was to be
seen of the Golden Fleece" but her
vanishing masthcnds as she disap.
peared under the seas that foamed over
her grave.
After finding that his own ship had
suffered no serious damage from the
collision the captain of the English
vessel gave his attention to the passen-
gers who had been so unexpectedly
added to his company.
A mess of hot coffee was served 70
the shipwreckcd crew, and Mrs. Drew
ana Gracic were made as comfortable
as possible in n fine statcroom placed
at their disposal.
After she had recovered from the
shock and fright Mrs. Drew asked that
Bill might be permitted to come aft.
To him she owed the life of her child
and most probably also of herself and
of her husband. To her he was no
longer the poor, forlorn stowaway; he
was hero and bencfactor whom no
kind deeds could ever sufficiently re-
pay. The tears stood in her eyes when
she saw him again. With n sudden inn
pulse she took his hand in both of hers
and earnestly exclaimed: MY brave
boy, never shall forget what we owe
TO you. While 1 live you shall never
lack friend" Tears cholScd her fur
thcr uttcrancc. but she meant every
word. as Bill found when they once
more reached port What he did in q
moment of unselfish heroism proved
the stepping-stone to successful ca
,recr Step by step he rose to be owner
and master of ships, and Grace, while
still in her teens. decided to enter into
life partnership with him who had
saved her life. Success often depends
not only on such unexpected incidents,
but also in recognizing and scizing an
opportunity when it comes. S. G. w.
