1t was the ice in the lower bay which
threatened to wreck the captain Won
derful scheme. The Guess Again bat
tered and plowed her way through the
floating fragments, but her progress was
provokingly slow. Twilight found her
some miles from the mouth of Orham
harbor, and with the pack ice ahead I'M
penetrable.

ated skipper. This stuff won't loosen

Il was jest wond'rin', captain, y
drawled the moderate Mr.. Small, If
'twouldn't be possible ter set yer ashore
in the dory somewheres along here.
Seems ter me you said the lady lived
down ter the north ard end of the town,
and there seems ter be consider Bile open
water over ter le'ward here. You'd have
ter walk three or four mile, but bein' as
it's so important"
Don't say another word, Alvin" cried
the delighted skipper; 81 don't see why
didn't think of that myself. Shows two
heads are better'n one, don't it? And
won't have ter walk no four mile, ~nei-
ther. Dyer see that inlet over there
with the streak of open water through
it? Well, that's Eel erick, and EeR cricll
is the outlet of the Clam pond. What S
the matter with you rowin' me up the
crick and the length of the pond-two
mile, or mebbe three? Sophrony's
house is only little ways from the up
per end of the pond"
But won't the pond be froze over?"
'Taint likely. It's salt water, and
there ought to be strong tide. Any
how. We'll resk it; come on"
Capt. Peters went below to pack up his
costume and presents, while Mr.. Small
superintended the anchoring of the
schooner and getting the dory over side.
When the skipper and he pushed off they
left a second mate and crew buhblin p
over with curiosity. The bundles which

thought of somethin'! Stop rowin', Giz-
zard. Who are your" he called to the
Voyager
The captain did not answer. He had
acquaintances in Orham, and he much
preferred that the news of his mishap
should not reach their ears He was
trying to invent a name, when Abner
saved him the trouble.
"Ain't you Sanity CLAUSE" called the
latter.
Yes, that's it; that's who I am
cried Capt. Peters; I'm Sanity Claus" "
'What'll yer give us if we take yer
Give yer? Give yer? Why, III give
yer each present out of my bag"
'Is that bag full OF presents?"
"Sartin."
"AIl right. then," cried the triumphant
"Spuds," well take yer off if yer'I give
us the whole bag full"
The whole bag full" gasped the in
dignant captain. why, you greedy lit
tie brats, III give yer what Paddy give
the drum, that's what I'll give yer. The
whole bag full! You come here and
put me ashore mighty QUICK.
Not unless you give us that bag of
presents. If you're Sanity Claus you can
git lots more. Besides, you've been
mighty stingy ter me and Gizzard this
year. | didn't want yer old rubber boots
and hist'ries, and he didn't want no
worsted tippet, neither. Will yer give
us the bag?"
MOI" roar'ed the captain.
"All right. Pull fer the shore, Giz-
zie"
The dorys bow swung toward the
beach, and the captain changed his mind
1t would be only temporary loan, he
argued He could regain his property as
soon as he got aboard the dory.
III give 'em ter ye," he called. Come
on, and take me Off"
mot till we git them presents. Well
stay here, and you can undo the bag and
pitch 'em to us, one at time"
1t was CALLING, but to argue was use
less. The bag was opened, and the toys
tossed one by one into the hands of the
boys in the dory. The empty bag was
then thrown in, and the bankrupt Santa
Claus again demanded to be taken aboard
the dory. But the crafty Peter knew bet
ter than to allow it. He united the rope
from the dory's anchor and tossed the
free end to the captain.
Hold on ter that, and We'll tow yer
in," he said. "Abner, put them things
back inter the bag"
Slowly the dory with the ice cake in
tow neared the beach. AS the boats
bow touched the shore, Peter and Hart

the door and peeped through the crack,
he saw that he was mistaken.
The widow was there, but the boys were
not She was talking with a man whom
Peters did not know, but whom he dis
liked at first sight. He was a fat, smil-
ing, smooth-shaven fellow, and a glib
talker. 1t was plain that he was very well
satisfied with himself, and thought every
one else shared his opinion. Then, too,
his chair was much too near the widows,
and he beamed upon that lady in man
ner which the captain considered disgust
ing.
YES" said the smiling individual,
they cal'late he was an escaped lunatic
though where he come from nobody
knows. He was dressed in some sort Of
an outlandish rig with fur onto it, and
the boys say he told 'em he was Sanity
Claus. Haw, Haw, hal"
"a lunatic!" exclaimed the widow;
chow dreadful! declare, I'm afraid ter
stay here alone. Suppose he SHOULD run
right inter this house"
well, thought of that, Sophrony.
That's one reason why called. Seems
if you needed a man ter protect yer,
don't 1t? Now there wouldn't no luna
tics hurt yer if l was here"
The significant look which accompa-
MED this speech fired the captains soul
1t was with difficulty that he held him
self in check, and waited for the next
sentence.
"Now, Sophrony, think heap Of
you, and you know it. That's why l
says to myself, 'Barnabas Badger says
I, that business of Sophrony's has hung
fire long enough. It's time you stepped
round and made her yer Offer So here

Hold yer tongue!"
The widow screamed and sprang to
her feet Mr.. Badgers chair, which
had been tilted back upon its two rear
legs, tilted still further and deposited
its occupant in an ungraceful heap
upon the floor. Capt. Shadrach Peters
stood in the middle of the parlor car
pet.
"You git!" roared the captain, ad-
dressing the PROSTATE Mr.. Badger, and
pointing to the door.
Lord! It's the lunatic!" gasped
the fallen one.
ooh, Barnabas, protect mel"
screamed the widow.
"Who-who are you?" faltered the
champion thus appealed to.

jOiced in the nickname of "GiZzard." "
Hartwell Doane, but Hartwell, in the
mouths of his playmates. soon shrank to
Hart" and from heart to gizzard is but
step. Peters younger brother Abner
accompanied the party, but, as he was
only six years old and played with dolls,
he didn't count.
The rubber boots were a Christmas
present Peter had wanted a mechan-
ical locomotive and blank cartridge
pistol, but had received the boots and a
young Peoples History" instead. He
was wroth, but the boots were there so
he felt it his duty TO see how deep he
could wade without "goin' over the
tops of en-" which has been the test of
rubber boots since boyhood first made
their acquaintance.
When the boys came in sight of the
pond Abner ran on ahead, while Peter
and Hartweli followed more leisurely, as
becomes people of experience and big
boots.
What's Alb yellin' about?" queried
Hartwell.
Abner, standing at the top of the sand
bluff overlooking the "Spring Hole
was dancing and screaming in great ex-
element
SANITY Claus!" he screamed; SANITY
Claus!"
"He b'lieves in him." said Peter,
scornfully; ''he amt old enough ter
know that Sanity Claus is jest yer folks
What about Sanity Claus, ABB" he yelled
Hes down here. Hurry up! Quick!"
Sees somebody he thinks is Sanity"
commented Hartwell. "He don't know
any better. Amt nothin but kid
What is it, Abby? Jimmy Crickets!
Spuds, look there"
The Spring Hole" was steely blue in
the morning sun, and two or tree cakes
of ice were drifting about its surface
One of these was floating about so yards
from the shore below, and on it sat
figure dressed in red, with fur hat and
white hair and whiskers.
"By gum!" said Hartwell; 81 b'lieve
il is Sanity Claus!"
There amt no such thing" said
Peter, "and you know it, Gizzard. It's
some feller dressed up"
He hollered ter me- said Abner.
There, he's holler'n ag'in."
What did he say, Spuds," said Hart
well, after they had listened for a mo-
ment.
Said fer us ter take Gabe Blanchard's s
dory and come and git him ashore"
"He swore, then" said Peter; that

we'll with the bag of presents between
them leaped to the sand and scampered
up the face of the bluff. BY the time the
captain had pulled his clumsy craft to
land they were high up on the crest of the
hill.
You young rascals!" roared the irate
skipper; I'll see you some other day
There's good time comm"
Another than Capt Shadrach Peters
would have returned to the schooner and
have postponed his call upon the widow
till more auspicious occasion, but the
skipper of the Guess Again was determi-
nation itself. He had said that he was
going there, and what he said he stood
behind. People knew him. He deter
mined to wear the wig and whiskers, as
they might serve to conceal his identity
should he meet any of his Orham &C
quaintanCes.
Little Abner Bak9 had not fled with
his elder brother and Hartwell, but had
hidden behind Blanchards fish shanty.
He had determined in his small brain
that the chance of gazing upon Santa
Claus did not offer itself twice in life
time, and that he ought to make the best
of it. He resisted the longing to examine
the contents of the bag, and when Capt.
Peters started down the lane that led
to Mrs. Bakers, Abner followed him.
Jimmie Ellis was leaning over his front
fence, and Abner hailed him. Come on,
Jimmie" he screamed. "its Sanity
Claus!"
Jimmie's yell of delighted surprise
brought out five other little Ellis hope
fuls, and the captains following grew in
numbers. He turned, saw his satellites,
and quickened his pace.
Its Sanity Claus!" screamed the chill
dren. "Hooray!"
Otis Gaines numerous progeny joined
the troop. So did the Bellows youngsters.
The captains progress was becoming a
triumphal procession. Ahead, where the
houses were more numerous, windows
were opening and people were hurrying to
their front gates. Children were racing
from all directions. The skipper left the
lane and began to run across the fields
His whooping pursuers did likewise, and
the chase was on.
1t led over hills and through bushes.
Across the surface Of frozen, flooded
cranberry swamps, ard over stone walls
and fences. The crowd now included
men as we'll as boys, and the shouting
was tremendous. The fur hat was left
hanging on the wild cherry bough which
scraped it off. One fur-topped boot stuck
in the mud when the foot which tt
adorned broke through the Ice of Ziby
