not been told the crow would come in
for n fair share of the loot.
We were then 300 miles to the south
of the Chagos, and, as the wind was
from the north. we had to beat back.
This was slow work, and we had not
yet made half the distance when we
cot Il gale from the west Which sent
us driving away toward the japanese
coast. and it WAS sixteen days before
we reached the islands.
The Chagos archipelago consists of
a score of islands, banks and reefs
While Scott believed that his island
WAS the casternmoSt of all he could not
be sure about it, and We had to eX-
anime each and every one as we came
to it. Running between them and
around thcm Was SLOW work and We
had to feel otr way, and thus it was
six or seven days before we reached
the last.
We found no such island as described

and the men had a bite to eat we set

We soon found the opening of the
bay and fowed toward it. Scott had
been on the island for over-a year and

he erected were in plain sight. At the
end of the bay we came to the cave,
and. leaping oHt Of the boat, the cap

One broken tusk had been left behind
and there was PERHAPS an ounce Of

When we landed and went up to the
hut we soon solved the problem. Some

"A Sailor S Find
lCcpyrieht. 1903. by c. e. Lewis

copyright 1905 by G. b Lewis,
We were well to the south Of the
Ghagos islands. IN the Indian ocean,
when we picked up man atioat on a
raft. lie was not only Il white man,
ibut q sai1or, and his rudely construct
ed craft Had Il e:tIso. Securely dashed
ito the pianks aud tiuhers were foHr
Sarge elephant i9s&s and an earthen
gar, together WitH TWO other jars CON
Itaining feed and Water.
The name Of the rescued sailor was
Willam Scott. lie WAS second mate
of a Ce4lon schooner called the Hap
py bay Three months before We
found hiM the schooner was wrecked
on an isIaHd.
Of t6e=creW ef eight men Scott
alone escaped. lie believed this island
to be tnp OF thc easternnost of the
Cha&os. | WAS, he said. about a mile
IN circumference, rocky and barren, but
HAVING II n, of fresh water on it.
Scott lfved on the barren rock for
fourteen long weeks without once
sighting d sail. and but for his own
strenuous efforts tie tiHne might have
been indefinitely prolonged. One day
a lot OF Wrec!lage from some unfortu-
nate natiE" craft drove ashore, and he
secured planis and timbers and set
about building d raft.
He Aaa made up his mind to go to
sea and take tie chances of being

Island not so far away.
Our Scotch captain was incredulous,
and vet he had to believe. He thought
the matter over and then made the
castaway proposition. The sailor
knew the value of what he had Sc
Erured; knew that he was we'll fixed for
the rest of his days. and. having
Knocked about on the raft a week be
fore we rescued him. he WAS not at all
anxious about What he had left behind
in the cave. The captain WAS, how
ever. and SO was every man OF the
crew.
The proposition was that Scott
should do his best to pilot us TO the

dust for his full share. The rest of the
sreasure would fall - the brig for de

BUEBLE-BUNDLE PARTIES,

For the ent eftainment of summer
bGardefs or the amusement of any
group who enjoy out of door life and
its games in preference to drawing
room pastimes in summer Bubbles
and Bundles is just the thing. The
requisites for the success of the game
are as many clay pipes as there are
players a big bowl of soap suds to
which tablespoonful of glycerine has
been added to tougher fne bubbles,
and a number of tiny bundles tied up
ribbons to match. says the Boston
Herald.
Each little bundle contains some
trsfe that does not make too bulky
a package The bundles are attacked
to strings and tied from clothes lines,
low branches of trees or any other
object that is not too lofty in height.
When they have all peen suspended
the guests line UP, pipes in hand and
one after another blows bubbles into
the air. the aim being for the bubble
to touch some bundle which then be-
comes the property Of the person be-
ing the bubble. After the bubble has
left the pipe it's course can be direc;
ed by gently tanning or blowing it.
AS soon as bundle is touched the
bubble blower retires from the con-
test. to try again after the others
have had their turn. Should any
member of the company be so unfor-
tunate as to fail to touch bundle
after three trials. he or she is pre-
sented with BOBBY prize. No one
blowing is over. Then all seat them
selves in a circle and the winner OF
the first bundle opens it. Whatever
it contains he must make up SEN
tencc in which its name appears, the
sentence not to contain more than ten
words nor less than five. and to be
Of a nature that the second blower
can take up in nara tive form intro
ducing the name of the article CON
tanned in his bundle.
AS each person opens the respective
bundles only as it comes his turn to
add to the story, there is no oppor.
tUnity for preparation, and as only a
minute is allowed for thought, it fre
qucntly happens that some very
ridiculous things are said.
Those who do not secure bundles
in the blowing contest copy the SEN
tenccs as they are uttered, the com
! pleted story being read aloud at the
finish, Thus if number one finds a
tiny doll number two an artificial rose
number three ribbon, number four
! little cake and number five a pencil,
the sentences could read something
like the following, though of course,
the story depends entirely on what the
bundle eontans but for example:
