ment to a reporter on August 3lst 1896:
For about three years / have suffered
intensely from rheumatism. and during that
time | have tried various remedies and was
treated by several able physicians, but with
out result. l passed many long, weary
night without closing my eyes in sleep. so
great was the pain in my arms and hands.
Last spring Rev J. B. Wiles advised me to
try Pink Pills as he said they had cured a
bad case of rheumatism for him and some of
his relatives. was SO impressed with Mr..
Wiles enthusiastic praise of Pink Pills that
decided to try box, and the result is all
that the most exacting could wish, for before
l had taken two boxes of the pills l was
completely cured, and l feel better now than
/ have for several years.
'My wife," continued Mr.. Baird. was
badly afflicted with neuralgia in the breast

served to calm the fears of the crowd;
and, by and by, one after another went
down to their staterooms on finding
the vessel was not going to sink inn
mediately. They all appeared some
time afterward in more suitable ap-
pareI. The steam which had filled the
saloon soon disappeared, leaving the
furniture dripping with warm mois-
ture. Finally the loud clang of the
breakfast gong sounded as if nothing
had happened, and that did more, per-
haps, than anything else to allay the
fears of the passengers. Ii breakfast
was about to be served, then, of course,
things were not serious. Still, great
many people that morning had very
poor appetite for the breakfast served
to them. The one blessing, as every
body said, was that the weather was
so fine and the sea so calm. The
ma jority of the passengers, however.
did not notice it. After breakfast people
came up on deck. There was 4
wonderful avoidance of hurry alike
by officers and sailors. Orders were
given calmly and quietly, and as
calmly and quietly obeyed. Officers
were still upon the bridge, although
there were no commands TO give to the
man at the wheel and no screw turning.
The helmsman stood at the wheel as if
he expected at any time the order to turn
it port or starboard. All this absence
Of rush had a very calming effect
on the passengers, many of whom
wanted only slight excuse to become
hysterical. AS the day wore on, how
ever. 4 general feeling of security seemed
to have come upon all on board. Then one
and all congratulated themselves Oh the
fact that they had all behaved in q most
exemplary manner considering the
somewhat alarming circumstances.
Nevertheless. those who watched the
| captain saw that he swept the long line
of the horizon through his glass every
now and then with good deal of
anxiety. and they noticed on looking at
the long level line where sea and sky
met that not 4 sail was visible around
| the complete circle. Up from the engine
room came the clank of hammers, and
| the opinion was general that whatever
was amiss with the engine was capable
OF being repaired. One thing had be-
! come certain, there was nothing wrong
with the shafts. The damage, what
ever it was, had been to the engine
alone. All of the passengers found
themselves more or less affected by the
| peculiar sensation of the steamer being
| at rcst-thc awe-inspiring and helpless
consciousness of complete silence
after the steady throb they had become
so accustomed to all the way across
That night at dinner the captain took
his place at the head of the table, bland
The Kinsley graphic. [volume] (Kinsley, Kan.) 1890-1940, 1897-03-12

and smiling and polite as ever. just as
if nothing had happened; and the pco-
pie who, Notwithstanding their out
ward calmuess, were in a state of pc
culiar tension, noticed this with graf
flied feelings.
What is the matter" asked a passen-
ger of the captain; land what is the en-
tent of the accident?''
The captain looked down at the long
table.
Il am afraid" said he, that if
went into technical details you would
not understand them. There was n
flaw in one of the rods, connected with
the engine. That rod broke, and. in
breaking, it damaged other parts of the
machinery. Doubtless you heard the
three thuds which it gave before the
engine was stopped. At present, it is
impossible to tell how long it will take
to repair the damage. However, even
il the accident were serious, we are right
in the track of vessels, and there is no
danger"
This was reassuring but those who
lay awake that night heard the o,ninous
sound OF the pumps, and the swishing of
water srlashing down into the ocean.

CHAPTER IN.

Most of the passengers awoke next
morning with bewildering feeling of
vague apprehension. The absence of all
motion in the ship, the unusual and in
tense silence, had 4 depressing effect.
The engines had not yet started; that at
least was evident. Kenyon was one OF
the first on deck. He noticed that the
pumps were still working at their full
speed. and that the steamer had still the
ominous list to port. Happily the
weather continued good, 50 far as the
quietness of the sea was concerned. y
slight drizzle of rain had set in, and
the horizon was not many miles from
the ship. There would not be much
chance of sighting another liner while
such weather continued.
Before Kenyon had been many min
utes on deck Edith Longworth came up
the companionway. She approached
him with n smile on her face.
Well" he said, you, at least, do not
seem to be suffering any anxiety be-
cause of our situation"
Really" she replied. II was not
thinking of that at all, but about some
thing else. Can you not guess what
il. is?'
No" he answered, hesitatingly.

Don't you? Well, for a person who

three days very earnestly on one partic-
ular subject, am astonished at you.
