Carnforth looked at the little man sly,y.

Martin Carnforth had been cursng the

went through him now. Before many more
hours were past he had a strong notion he
would be scared at its liveliness. He had
seen Capt. Kettles methods before when
things went contrary to his plans and
wishes.
Slowly the night dragged through, and
by degrees the blacknesS thnned. The
eastern waters grew gray, and the sky
above them changed to dull sulphur ye!-
low. Then a coal Of crimson fire burned
out on the horizon and grew quickly to a
great half disk OF scarlet; and then the
rest of the sun was shot up as an orange
pip is slipped from the fingers; and it was

For full an hour the yacht had been un-

place was alive with the shout of break

beyond the hedge Of spOuting waters, were
three small turtle backs Of sand and a lug
ger at anchor.
The water outside was clear as bottle
green glass, and of enormous depth. The
only entrance to the lagoon was a narrow
canal between the reefs shown up vivdly

from his inmost heart for brining him to
earth and keeping him there among sordid
considerations.
The little mariner himself was seated in

the frayed sleeve Of a white drill jacket.
His sewing tackle stood in pictured tin
biscuit box on the deck beside him. He un-
ripped the old stitches with pocket knife.
and reserved the sleeve with exquisite ac-
curacy and neatness. His fierce eyes were
intent on the work. To look at his nimble
fingers, one would think that they had
never held anything more deadly than the
ordinary utensils Of tailoring. Carnforth

What tself-reuuuciation and heroic purpose

but that was no part of their puritanism II
is to the puritan women we owe so much for
that spirit in our people which gives them
the fortitude to endure hardship and stake
life and fortune for their convictions.
The American women of to-day have the
spirit of their puritan mothers, but their
constitutions are not rugged or able to en-
dure half the hardships of these New Eng
land ancestors. Very often they are run
down with weaknesses and irregularities
peculiar to their sex, and the constant drain
upon their vitality makes them chronic in
valids. Many women hesitate to go to
their family physician. because they dread
the local examinations SO generally insisted
upon by practitioners.
Such women should write Dr. r. v.

Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,

their symptoms, history, etc, so that he
can give them the best possible medical
