Lived on the Sea All Their Lives.

| A little blue-eyed baby girl was
! crawling on the cabin deck under an
awning aboard the iron bark Star Of
the East as that vessel lay moored at
a pier in New York. Her mother, the
wife of Captain George Norman Rog-
ers, who commands the bark, was with
her child, whom they had named Star
Cameron Rogers. Beside the baby was
her sister Margaret, who is years and
6 months old. Little Star was born
| aboard the bark while the vessel was
humming along near the island of Iris
tan de Chuna, in the South Atlantic
on November IL, 1898. There was
never healthier child than Star. Since
she was born she had been aboard the
bark nearly all the time, with the eX-
ception of a short stay ashore at Auck-
land, New Zealand where the child
was introduced to her grandmother.
When reporter went aboard, Star had
just finished her afternoon sleep, and
after her mother had put a white silk
dress on the baby she was held I'D to
De seen. She has a rosy complexion
and bright smile, and is the picture
of health. She has travelled more than
$1,000 miles since she was born, and
has been around Cape Horn Star
never slept in bed. When she was
much smaller than she is now her
mother took her into her bunk at
night. But on the voyage home the
child slept in canvas hammock The
more the bark rocked and rolled the
better the baby seemed to like it, The
sailors of the bark are proud of little
Star, and say she is their mascot
Margaret can walk and talk. She is a
reg lar little sailor. She has been
around the Horn twice, and has made a
voyage around the world Margaret is
different from shore babies. She
does not care for toys. She has some
blocks and other little things with
which to play, but she likes best of all
to stand at the wheel Margaret also
sleeps in hammock 1t is only during
rough weather that her mother takes
her into her own bunk. Margaret cele-
brated the Fourth of July by eating
her first orange and her first dish of
strawberries. She did not know wheth-
er she liked the fruit or not

How Angelina seraphina Was Honored


| Mollie and Trottie were in such a
state of mind! Here was the carriage
almost at the station, and the awful
! discovery had just been made that
Angelina Seraphina had been left at
home. Each little girl had thought
that the other had put Mistress An
gelina in mammals big trunk, and they
thought they could not go for the sum-
mer vacation with papa and mamma
| without taking Angelina Seraphina
along, too. Then papa came to the res
cue. Alfred could drive back home,
after leaving them all at the station,
and very likely he could get back with
, her ladyship before the train left. So
away from the station whiried the spir-
tied pair of horses, with the empty,
open carriage, and after it gazed anX-
iously two very troubled little faces. At
home Norah had found the dolly al
most as soon as the family had driven
away, and when she saw Alfred driv
ing furiously up the street she knew
what he was after. She met him at
the curbstone with Angelina Sera-
phina, who was placed in state upon
the rear cushion, with the dark broad
over her knees. And thus she went
dashing down the street, with Norah
laughing upon the doorstep. That
morning the whole city had turned out
to see the big procession that was to
escort the governor of the state, who
was passing through the city. Alfred
had avoided the crowd on his first trip,
but the time was short now, and so he
resolved to take the chance of getting
safely through the crowd by a short
cut. Alas! When almost in sight of
the station, he came down a side street
full upon the procession that was pass
ing along the main thoroughfare, the
sides of which were lined with people
hurrying along to keep up with the car
riages. The chief marshal, his aids,
and two splendid brass bands had just
passed, when Alfred saw a bit of an
opening between the last of the musi-
clans and the prancing horses that
drew the gOvernor-elect. Time was
precious. Mollie and Trottie must not
be disappointed; so Alfred resolved to
slip through the procession. Halfway
through, the crowd surged up in front
of him and blocked the way, and be-
fore Alfred knew how it all came about
he was driving the first carriage in the
big procession, and AID gelina Seraphina
was in the place of honor! The station
was just ahead, and the crowds on
either side became denser and denser
and so it was that this young ladys |
simply had to head the pro-
cession all the rest of the way! You
should have seen Mollie's and Trottie's |
eyes when they saw their beloved An /
gelina being thus escorted to the train!
There were broad smiles on the faces |
Of hundreds who were looking on, and |
even the governor-elect had to smile, |
although he, poor man, was being de- |
prived of the honors of the occasion! |
Angelina, 1 am pleased to say, bore
herself in a very dignlfied manner; but
Alfreds face-well, it would have been
lutte as red as a beet, 1 am sure, had
not Mother Nature already made it as
black as ebony!-Webb Donnell

Dear Hands.


Dear hands, grown hard with toiling
years,
To me how beautifully tender;
Ye have no need of jeweled spheres
To lend artificial splendor;
Leave pearls and rubys eye of fire
For courtly maidens fragile finger;
God help you that you never tire
While here above the flowers you linger.
If sorrow wall, dear hands, you go,
And lay healing touch sadness;
And sunless hearts, in thraT to woe,
Find dolor ringed with gold of gladness.
Or when the fevered brow grows cold,
And rests where seldom footstep passes,
Your lilies peep from out the mold
grasses.
Not yours, dear hands, the subtle power
Not yours the painters magic dover
That can the airy fancy capture;
And yet you rule with potent sway,
And hearts obey your Hghtest gesture,
And eyes beam love, the while you stray
God, for thy labor, gives repoSe,
And heaven holds rest for hands grown
weary.
After the shadows and the SHOWS,
After the death-swoon, long and dreary,
Angels shall kiss you red to white,
And every scar from every finger;
When daisies hide you from our sight,
Still will your sweetness round lin
