Somewhat Like Home.

The man from Kansas was making
a trip across the Atlantic, and during
the passage the weather was extremely
boisterous. One morning when it was
blowing great guns the Kansan ap-
peared on deck. Nobody was in sight
except the captain.
''Go below there p he shouted.
The passenger looked around TO see
who he was talking TO.
"You mean me? ," he yelled back
when he saw there was no one else IN
sight.
"Of course | do; go below" and the
captain came alongside.
well, guess not, protested the
Kansan. I'm up here to see how one
of your mountain high waves and
terrific gales compares with what we
have in Kansas in the way of cyclones.
This amt Il patch to what I've seen

Before the captain could offer further
objection a big green wave came curl
ing over the place where the passenger
stood, and the next thing he knew he
was swept off his feet and carried aft
over ropes and boats and all the
paraphernalia Of ships deck and
landed in heap in one corner, where
he was saved from being washed

he had broken leg. twisted shoulder,

it had been dragged backward through

TO Mrs. Harkness and awaited her
answer impatiently. The Northern

friends had forgotten her. The lav
was rainy and dreary. If her hands
had not been SO full she would have
lost courage but all the children had
to be kept in the house. aud with an
aching heart she had to devise some
means to keep them quiet and content.
The children were finally happily set
in the attic at wonderful new game
which Marion had invented on the
spur of the moment. She was seated
in the midst Of the noisy group. when
she heard the front doOrbell ring.
She went down just as she was carrying

many times more beautiful than she
had ever seen before.
