by the citizens of the precinct as a good

wreckers to the top of the lighthouse
Trusting TO his knowledge of every nooE
and Granny in the premises, Harry, with
the stealthy motion of cat, ascended
the steep, narrow winding stairs. UI
and up he went, every slight noise send
ing thrill of terror through him; ur
past Ioopholes, which now admitted nc
single ray of light; up until the second
and last round was almost completed
and then he stopped.
He recognized the wreckers. One was
an Indian, the other Miles Graham, q
white man, and both suspicious and dan
gerous characters.
"Ughr' exclaimed the former as he
paused on the last step. "Me hear um
noise, Sal"
The brave boy never moved muscle,
but the beating of his heart was painful
in that awful moment. Two steps to one
side, and either one of the men would
have trampled him where he lay. Would
they strike light?
"Go on. you cowardr Graham cried
impatiently "There amt no human bein
but them in the cottage within miles of
us. Go on, tell your
Soon their echoing footsteps died away
in the distance, and Harry rose with a
prayer of thanksgiving on his lips, for
the danger was passed. Quickly he ran
up the last fight of stairs, and one glance
showed him ALL The wreckers had not
eXtinguished the lamp. but simply broken
the revolving apparatus.
In another lighthouse farther down the
coast the light was stationary. Pilots
therefore would naturally mistake one
for the other and run their ships upon
the rocks.
Harry, however, was equal to the occa-
sion. Closing the heavy door of the little
circular apartment, he bolted and barred
it firmly. Then, standing on stool, he
found that he could reach the lamp and
move it easily with his hands.
"One. two, three. four, FIVE. six he
counted with the regularity of Il clock
until he reached 80. and then the bril-
liant light flashed out upon the darkness,
and many a pilot miles away upon the
bosom of the stormy gulf saw the well
known signal and steered his vessel ac
cordingly.
The infuriated wreckers. vowing venge-
ance upon the person who had outwitted
them. ran up the narrow stairway and
flung themselves again and again upon
the stout barrier which separated them
from the heroic boy.
Amid the howliug of the storm, the
curses, threats and pistol shots of the
baffied rufiians five feet away from him
Harry calmly continued counting the
weary minutes of the long. terrible night.
His arms ached, he was almost overcome
with fatigue. but he never tiinched.
The wreckers. who had made their es-
cape before daylight. were afterward
captured and punished, as they deserved
to be. by Imprisonment for long term of
years.

THE LIGHTHOUSE
KEEPERS SON.

A strip of land jutting out into the gulf
Of st. Lawrence was at the time I write
| of known by the name of Cape Hurri-
cane. a magnificent lighthouse had been
| built at the extreme point. and hard by
stood the cottage of the keeper, an ole
seafaring man named Samuel Johnstone
Besides two daughters he had four
sons, the youngest of whom. Harry. aged
ID. is the hero of my story.
One day Samuel Johnstone was left
alone with his little son.
As night approached he perceived that
the sky was overcast by heavy thunder
clouds, that cold. wet wind was blow
ing from the north, and the experienced
mariner at once concluded that a great
storm was impending.
Harry" he said, entering the cottage
and addressing the boy, who was reading
by the open fireplace, run down to the
cove aud pull up ycur skiff high and dry"
Along the barren shores of Cape Hurri-
cane were scattered the cabins of fugitive
Indians, outcasts from their tribes, and
here and there might be seen the shanty
Of some fishermen, who could act also
the roles of smuggler and wrecker when
occasion requiIed.
Harry found his task of placing the
Sea Gull beyond danger more difficult
than he imagined. Hence it was some
time before he was ready to return to
the cottage. and when he turned his steps
in that direction the waves We're already
,ashed into fury.
The lighthouse lamp. constructed on
the revolving plan, now flashed its radi-
ance through the intense darkness of
the night at intervals OF a minutes dura-
tion.
Harry stopped suddenly, with an ex-
clamation of surprise and fear. as he
approached the cottage He crept up to
the window and looked in. Four wreck
ers, awkwardly disguised with masks Of
canvas, had captured and gagged the
keeper. wrestling from him at the same
time the great iron key of the light
house.
He crouched down in the shadows un-
der the window sill and in few sec
onds had regained his presence of mind.
His father was helpless. IL was his duty
to act-to outwit the men-to save hun
dreds Of lives now at the mercy of the
wreckerS.
Harry had not long to wait. Two men
were left to guard the PROSTATE form of
old Samuel Johnstoue, while two others
cautiously left the cottage and ran swift
ly toward the lighthouse. The key turn
ed in the lock and both entered. The
next instant Harry had followed them.
Harry quickly removed his shoes as he
gained the entrance of the lighthouse.
The door was left open. He listened.
Both men ascended the stairs. The boys
heart beat with great thumps against
his side as he felt for the key. IL he
could secure it, it would be easy to lock
the wreckers out when they came down
and then to repair what damage they
might have done to the lamp. But the
key was gone.
At all hazards he would follow the

The Gossip and the Meddier. Whose
Questions Are Offensive.

Tne GOSSIP ana the Medcier. whose
| Questions Are Offensive.
Whether inquisitiyeness is TO be rated
as q virtue or as vice depends very
much upon its purpose and upon the
extent of its exhibition. 1t is quite
commenda5ie in the young who are
simply seeking useful information. Ii
is impertinent in the mature who are
trying to crafty their curiosity or to
find food for gossip. Children are
sometimes encouraged to ask questions
in an aimless way and become nui-
sances because of their inquisitiveness,
intelligently and for the purpose of ac-
quiring knowledge is interesting and
deserves the encouragement of an
swers and explanations.
The inquisitiveness of the gossip and
meddler is of a very different kind and
is always offensive. The meddling
gossip does not seek useful inforIna-
ton and may not intend any harm.
Sometimes he or she asks questions
with no aim whatever. but simply as q
matter of bad habit and to maintain 4
conversation. More often, however,
the inqUisitive person of mature years
is Il malicious gossip. That which he
or she learns is repeated. with varia-
tons. sometimes with the purpose, al
ways with the effect, of creating con-
troversies and embroiling mutual
friends. The most trivial matters are
made the subject of exhaustive in
quiry. II two accounts do not exactly
agree, attention is called to the varia-
tions, with implications that some one
has told an untruth. Such matter. of
no Importance one way or another. is
magnified until it is made cause for
serious dispute. Inquisitiveness of
this kind Is extremely reprehensible.
1t is generally malicious, but where it
has no bad purpose it is no less malev-
oIent in its effect. This form of in
quiSitivenesS Is generally, in part at
least, the result of habit and can be
avoided by any one who is disposed to
avoid 1t. The inquisltiveness OF the
child or OF the uniformed seeking use
full knowledge deserves to be encour-
aged as long as 1t is legitimately exer-
cised for good purposes. The inquisi-
tivenesS of the malicious gossip should
never be satisfied.
