CHAPTER TX.
AL through the long hot summer day
tho blazing sunlight reflected from the
great blue molten mirror OF the ocean,
from the granite face of the sheer precip-
itous cliffs, and with dazzling glare from
the snowy, whitewashed walls of the
C~oastgunrd station, the flashinrly-bright
windows of which concentrated the rays
to a focus like so many burning glasses-
had the hot busy hours passedin the work
that seemed never to end. the tasks that
werc only accomplished in series to make
room for more.
Winnie had washed, starchcd, and
ironed all those neat muslin blinds, aud
put them up smooth and spotless again;
she had finished the little frock begun two
days ago for Louie, and hummcd a line OF
two of Tennyson's "Cradle Song"-
