sure that the signal was understood.

of the waterman kneeling on the thwart
and his face turned in evaporation toward

whistle was blown again and replied to as
before, only this time it sounded quite
near, and at the same time a white light
began TO descend from the level of the red.
"This is the oldest thing in the world, )"
said Gordon in a tone of perplexity. THAT
must be a ships light in front OF us, ana
the lantern is evidently coming down the
side"
Then understood the position of affairs.
Gordon was 80 be taken on board the Rus
sian vessel and not TO the Mariners Joy, as
Kavanagh had intended.
In few minutes we were drawn along
side the dark hull of the steamer. On the
little platform at the foot of the side steps
an officer in long cloak was standing, with
a bright, bullseye lantern The light daz-
zled me when he turned it in our faces.
The man who had scrambled into our boat
drew us close to the platform and held us
in that position.

"I,ll try the beershop. If Kavanagh's
man is not there, may find some one who
will take me across"
He hurried across the open space, and
saw his figure against the light as he en-
tered the house by a swing door.
There was a moment Of intense silence
and then heard long, distinct whistle in
the direction taken by the driver.
Nv eyes were fixed upon the beershop.
The thickness of the night and the distance
prevented my making it out clearly, but it
seemed to me that there were two doors to
it-one on each side of the front, with its
two spears of gas-and this was presently
proved to be the case by man slipping out
on the other side TO that entered by Gordon.
Another and another followed, all with
swift stealth. Outside they stood together
for moment, looking gigantic in the fog
Then, as the driver whistled again from
the shore, they started of at run toward
the waterside Probably knowing that !
must be in the carriage, they kept as far
from it as possible Nevertheless | saw
the three phantom figures file past and
disappear into the darker distance.
A few minutes elapsed, and Gordon came
quickly from the beershop, followed by a
man who carried lantern.

A. o. LindStrom Is the Possessor
of This Relic of Charles XII
and Ills Wars.

When Charles XII of Sweden became
most uncomfortaby embarrassed through
his passion for fighting, he did not seek
the aid of monetary congress in Brussels
to settle affairs of finance. he had Min
lister of Finance. one Baron Goertz, a Rus
sian, whose ideas, it would seem in this
eXacting age, were refreshingly original,
and with the aid of this Baron Gneriz
Charles took the bull by the horns. What
the King did was right. SO when Charles
XII set his regal seal upon copper half
dollars that weighed one pound and quar-
ter, his people accepted the inevitable and
carried the queer coin around, even if they
had to get horse when it was necessary
to move more then So or $40 in coin of the
realm.
In the history of the fierce northern
wars in which Charles XII engaged there
is perhaps no better evidence of his re-

this copper half-dollar One can scarcely
believe it was ever used for money-pon-

The varied aspects of Mount Shasta are
one of the most impressive of natures

in solemn grandeur above the plain
changes with each hour OF the day and
night, and is constantly unfolding new
beauties. The changes often come with
remarkable rapidity. One moment the
sun will be shining on the pile of volcanic
rock, and In a very few minutes the sky
will become overcast with clouds. The
wind will blow and snow will be drifted
aud swirled about in all directions at once.
1t is grand sight.
In part IA of Picturesque California"
there are beautiful pictures showing the
varied moods of nature in the Shasta

1t has been the custom Of Drs. Copeland,

they have been engaged in the practice OF

the season as the most favorable for treating
eatarTh and all chronic diseases Of kindred
nature. the results of repeated and Otttimes
neglected colds.
They feel very grateful to the public for the
confidence. with which II accepts ard responds
TO their printed utterances. Their many years
experience In treating all forms of catarrhal
and kindred chronic diseases entities hem TO
speak authoritatlvely Oh the subject, and IL Is
particularly pleasing TO feel that The public APP
precates and acknowledges THIS fact.
Therefore. following the usual custom, Drs.
Copeland, Winn and Neal desire 10 announce the
advent of the present favorable season. Now Is
undoubtedly the time 10 treat catarTh. Now We
