risk of human life. At the bottom of it
all no doubt is the measly price paid to
masters OF ships on this line.
Coming up the coast on the trip be-
fore ours the steamer suddenly found
herself off Barnegat with the light on
her star'Doard instead of her port bow!
In other words, she was swiftly sail

cornfield had not the man on watch no.
ticed the light in time.
am told that the captain of a steam
er on this liae gets $65 per month. That
would be all right for the driver of a
bobtail street Ear, but where one has
half ndlliou worth of property and a
hundred lives i'll his charge 500 per
month is not sufficient remuneration.
Such m All m zst know how to navigate
a ship jus as we'll as the master of an
Atlantic liner. He must know that the
earth is round, like ball, and slightly
depressed at the poles; also that the
earth is composed Of land and water,
trees once in "a hours, and that mid
way between the poles there is an imag-
mary line called the equator. All these
things he can hardly know positively at
500 per month.
He may err at times on a salary like
that. He might get off the track a little,
as did young man here in the treasury
department the other day.

"GAI1Y SKIPPING DOWN THE HILL"

as we used to dol" and Uncle Johr
laughed heartily as he thought oft.
"Oh do tell us about it," cried thu
boys, and so after lighting his pipe, Ii,
commenced:
1--WE boys had very inventive minds
and were up to all sorts of capers, sc
it is no wonder that after reading in
the fairy tale Of the old woman who
was rolled down the hill in cask we
decided to see what her sensations were
like. We got large and strong cask
which belonged to grandfather, taking
care to pull all the nails out, however,
and fixed it to start on it's travels. We
lined it with old grain sacks to make
it more comfortable, and then three of
us boys piled in, and the fourth sent the
barrel rolling down the hill. It was
the strangest sensation 1 ever felt and
after practicing for awhile we grew
quite fond of the sport, although it was
quite a dangerous one, and called it
Tubing The old drawback was in
getting the old tub up the hill again,
but after awhile we remedied that by
rigging up sort of pulley attach
ment."
1T must have been finel" cried Ted
and Jack together, anc just then Tom
Winters, the boy who lived on the next
farm. came up and the next subject was
forgotten.
The next day when the boys were
rummaging underneath the old corn
crib looking for some mischief TO ger
into they came upon a queer old barrel
which brought Uncle Johns story back
to their minds.
Il guess this is the tub Uncle John
was telling us about" said Ted. .sIsn't
it queer old machine. say, boys"-
TO Jack and Tom Winterslalet's try
it'll Uncle said he used to think it great
sport"
so the old cask was rolled out and
brushed quite clean and then hoisted on
the wheelbarrow and wheeled to the
top OF Sunset hill. The hill was quite
steep, which was ali the better for the
purpose, the boys thought, but IL was
a question In which direction Il should
be started. The woods Commenced At
the foot of the hill TO the south; the
railroad track was toward the east.
