CHAPTER vIII.-CoNr1NuED.

With a thrill of supreme delight
Stanton hailed the first motion of the
wheels as the steamer started, but it
was of very short duration.
He looked about the deck with a
shudder. It was crowded with the
promiscuous company always to be
found on the Pacific.
Before the land had disappeared
Stanton discovered that it had been all
mistake to imagine that the starting
OF the steamer would better his condi-
ton. It had only changed it for the
worse.
AS the dark fringe sank into the
eastern horizon he clutched the rail,
by pure muscular resistance to prevent
himself from leaping into the water;
not to suicide, but in an Overwhelming
desire to get back again to that fading
fragment of America.
The thought of Imprisonment in that
steamer while she crept over the thou
sands of miles of blank ocean was more
horrible than anything he had suffered
on the land.
"Oh, Stanton, you fool!" he gasped
Turning his back upon the east, he
walked deliberately up to company OF
passengers and began conversation
with one of them.
Before the sun had set the second day
the passengers generally had discov-
cred that there was entertainment
wherever Stanton CHANGED to be, and
that he was always the center of it.
There is wide diversity of taste and
sentiment upon those steamers, yet
no one seemed to take exception to the
New York lawyer.
"He's the jolliest fellow ever met
said a somewhat hayward government
clerk to two or three near him, when a
week from shore.
''Don't often find jovial chap like
him on board, that's fact" replied a
purchasing agent.
"He is great addition to our COM
pany," said venerable returning mis-
sionary, whose only objection to Stan
ton was that such men spoke we'll of
him.
"Jolly? Jovial?" the captain of the
steamer repeated, as his gray eyes
wandered down the deck to where Stan
ton, as usual, was the center of merry
laughing company. EITHER I don't
know what those words mean or dom t
agree with you. We've been out for a
week, but that man hasn't smiled since
he came on board.''
It was difficult to believe, but the
three watched and waited, only to dis
cover that the captains eyes were
sharper than their senses.
He was the source of many a merry
peal of laughter, but he never smiled

ment he touched it, and before he lef,
Bagdad Stanton was not oriy an en-.
thusiastic adnirer of the Persian ant
his theories, but an ardent participant,
in his researches.
"What fabulous resources for enjoy,
ment are within our reach in every di-
rection, if our eyes are only open to
them!" he exclaimed. "Anl yet care
within hairs breadth of living my life
out and dying in the theory that the
only interesting thing in the world was
aquestion of law"
At last he reached Jerusalem-poor
Jerusalem!-when she was staggering
under the Christian orgies of Passion
Week.
1t is pity to see Jerusalem then, and
Stanton sat in silent disgust in the gal,
lery of the Church of the Holy Sepul-
chre, looking down upon. the mob o.
fanatics, and wishing himself back il:
heathendom, when suddenly hi
thoughts flew far away to his office ir
New York on that morning of Decem,
Der 6.
He heard the voice of his first caller,
speaking. He saw her eyes, bright,
flashing, beautiful.
He had thought about that day as
little as possible. of late. 1t was by no
means forgotten, nor was his struggle
to become worthy of the end in view one
whit abated, but thoughts of the past
still reused only the morbid sentiments
he was struggling to dispel.
Again and again he tried to put the
memory out of his mind, but he saw
only those eyes. He moved restly, and
involuntarily looked across to the op-
posite gallery.
She was there.
Her arm rested on the rail, her cheek
on her hand. Her head was bent forward
as though she had been watching the
rioters, but her eyes-as plainly as
though they two had been alone, he saw
that those beautiful eyes were fixed on
him. For the moment he could not
move. Then, either because she saw
that he was looking or because she did
not see him at all, her eyes turned
slowly to the crowd below.
Instantly he rose, and as quickly as
possible made his way to the opposite
gallery.
She was no longer there.

felt certain that he would fall victim to
smallpox, which was reported to be preva

begged him to carry little lump of asafetida

Naturally he objected and positively re-
such a persistent odor.
When he came home from his trip he said
to his wife,

Was All Face.

The governor general of Canada, while
enjoying drive in the keen, frosty air, met
an Indian who was very lightly clad. From
mere curiosity he stopped the sleigh when
opposite the Indian and asked him how it

moments hesitation, answered by asking:

and the fact sank into the missionary
heart. He knew that there was some
thing wrong with man who never
smiled. He set himself to investigate,
in the hope that he might render some
assistance, and came, very correctly, to
his preliminary conclusions. Then he
tried to secure an interview, but Stan
ton was never alone.
In reality the young lawyer had SIM
ply discovered that of all disagreeable
things which he would instinctively
put away he was himself the most dis
agreeable, and in choice of evils he
was putting himself away by keeping
others about him. Many troubled
soul had done the same before, but he
knew nothing of such sentiments, either
in himself or in others.
At last the missionary succeeded in
finding Stanton alone on deck early one
morning. He made a few preliminary
remarks concerning the human duty OF
bearing one another's burdens, and
said:
"You have more friends on board
than any of US, yet you seem to me to
be in need of real friend and to lack
one. I wish that you could accept my
sacred Office, rather than its unworthy
holder, and give me your confidence"
'sDo act like one depressed?" Stan
ton asked, absently.
"You do, sir, and you are" replied
the missionary. you are the life of the
steamer, but your own heart is not IN
it. Do not be angry, sir. Remember
that my only desire is to serve you.
Let me even say frankly that you have
seemed to me like one struggling with
an unfortunate love-affair. Am I not
correct?"
"You are correct said Stanton.
II am sorry, very sorry" the mission
airy replied, with look and voice say
ing plainly that he too had suffered,
long ago. ''Was she unworthy?' he
asked, gently.
s.she was exceptionally worthy
Stanton said.
''That is something to be thankful
for" the missionary exclaimed, glad to
find something consoling. ut is well
that you do not repent havingcastyou
pearls to swine"
81 am thankful" Stanton replied,
with more energy than had been in his
voice for many day. He was looking
backward.
ssDoes she love another?" the mission
ary asked.
NO"
"There again you are fortunate.
Surely you must still have hope"

ELIUGH YALE'S EPITAPH.
Tombstone, in Wre1ham Church'
yard, of the Founder of Yale
College.

The recent visit to this country of a
number of athlete students from Yale
college, United States of America, in
duces me to send you the epitaph upon
the founder of that college, which l
copied from his tombstone in WreXham
churchyard, North Wales, some years
ago:
"F,liugh Yale, Esq, was buried the
twenty-second Of July in the year of our
Lord MDCCEXI.
| Born in America, in Europe bred,
In Africa travelled, in Asia wed,
Where long he lived ard thrived, IN Lon
con dead.
even,
And that his soul through nercy's gone to
Heaven.
You that survive and read this tale take
care,
For the most certain exit to prepare,
Where blest in peace the actions CT the just
Smell sweet and blossom in the silent dust"
The tomb is on the western side of
the church, within an iron railing. AT
one time Yale was governor of Ma
dras. He was tried in England for
hanging his groom because he rode his
horse two or three days for the benefit
of his health without leave of his mas
ter. Yale escaped with heavy penal
ty. He was the first man in England
to establish and use sale by auction.
His wife and only child lie in one grave
at the Cape of Good Hope. From Yale
college, so called after the founder,
hundreds of students have made pill
grimages to Wrexham to view his
grave. The tomb was restored in 1920
by the church wardens, and again in
1874 at the cost of Yale college. I be-
lieve it has within the past two years
been further renovated.-Ellis Lever,
to London Times.

THE ORIGINAL SPEECH.

True Primeva1 Tongue of Man Unlike
Any Language We Know.
The original speech, the true prim-
eval tongue OF man. was quite unlike
any language we have ever heard; yet
we have all talked 1t and all its ele-
ments are present In the tongues of to-
day, says the Contemporary The prim-
eval language was vowel language
altogether; IL had no consOnants, or
contacts, as we ought to call them, ut
all. Its words consisted of vowel
sounds following each other, repeated
or varied-Of words like ueaea, aOao,

each a lungful of verse. In the prim-
eval tongue 1t was likewise, but the
sentences We're vowels only.
There are about ten or Il dozen pure
vowels to go upon. and vowel words
may run up to five syllablcs; so we
have very considerable fund to draw
ON for our vowel streams. And these
streams OF vowel speech correspondent
TO and expressed streams of emotion or
feeling rather than descriptions of con
crete objects. For we hardly realize
how terribly Overladen with material
trities our life is today and therefore
what great demands we make on Ian
guage for concrete words. But our ex-
CARNATIONS, each of which indicates a
single emotion, tend to remain pure
vowel sounds even at the present day.

church and the art of reading ecclesi-
astical characters.
The history Of the missions of the
Greek church in Alaska is an interest
ing one. Archlmandrite JOasaph, an
elder of the order of Augustin friars,
accompanied by eleven monks, were
the pioneer missionaries sent by
Imperial decree of Empress Catha-
rinc. in 1893. In 1916 FIR. Joasaph
was cOnsecrated as bishop, and the
same year the first church was erected
at Kadak Island. In 1899 this bishop
and all the monks but one were ship
wrecked and lost. The surviving monk
remained alone in the colonies eleven
years before another was sent to his
assistance.
The man. however. who left the
greatest religious impress upon that
country was Innocentius Veniaminoff.
He began his labors there in 1898 and
In 1910 he was made bishop. The earli-
est mission established at Sitka was
about the year 1900. An ecclesiastical
school was opened at Stka In 1871. 1t
was then but small place, built chief
