rens Of -four and crackers, barrels
Of oil, lamps and lanterns, and an
endless variety of cooking utensils.
There was also barrel which Mr..
Vincent handled tenderly, and that
gentleman took special care of crates
containing bottles of claret, beer and
Burgundy, to say nothing of cigars,
tobacco, sherries, cordials, brandies
and liquors. Mr.. Vincent arranged
these in order, and then stood and
gazed lovingly at the imposing array.
And still the sailors brought new
treasures from the hold of the
SHARK" There were library shelves,
pictures, mirrors, bric-a-brac, piano
and the parts of a billiard table.
There were guns, revolvers and cases
of ammunition, together with rods
and an assortment of fishing tackle.
A huge chest contained a complete
set of carpenters tools. There were
numberless articles of necessity and
comfort, including a variety OF
canned foods, jellies and jams, and
smoked and cured meats, of which
a grocer or mar1let-man might have
been proud. These were placed in
the storehouse, which was provided
with a huge cave which served as a
cellar, through which a branch of
the brook had been diverted to keep
it cool.
By one o'clock all of these arti-
Giles had been deposited, either in the
various rooms Or on the broad We
randas. Luncheon was served on the
yacht, and the crew returned to their
task Mr.. Kent and Mr.. Rockwell
took hand in the work; so did Sid
ney Hammond and Mr.. Haven. Mr.
Carmody took charge of the arrange
ment of the pictures, while Mr.. L.
Sylvester Vincent devoted his time
to the perfection of the storeroom.
Mr.. Morton remained on board the
yacht for awhile, and then rejoined
the busy party. 1t was warm, but
he entered into the spirit of the
affair and was soon at work.
''You will find in one of the boxes
a great assortment of linen cloth
ing and other wear suitable to this
climate said Hestor. There are
cork helmets and all of the devices to
protect you from the glare of the
sun. There is also a gas engine
and a small dynamo sufficient to run

WORLDS WAX SUPPLY.
1t Is Not Obtained from Bees Alone.
rs Most of Us Have Always
Been Taught.

Bees are by no means the only pro-
ducers Of animal wax, although prob
ably SO persons out of 100 would say
so if asked.
The very biggest animal in the world
is one of the most important wax pro-
ducers, and fine wax it u.s. It is sperm
acct, and it is obtained from the head
OF the sperm whale.
When a sperm whale has been killed
and is brought alongside, the first
thing that the whalemen do after the
chains are passed around the fukes to-
hold the big creature alongside Of the
whaling ship, is to cut the head from
the body.
This head alone often weighs several
tons, and it is no light job to raise it
from the water. Immense tackles are
used, and as the whalers, who stand
on the whale and on stagings rugged
over it, cut through the vertebrae with
their keen cutting-out spades other
men on the deck of the ship heave and
haul on the tackle until the mighty
head is clear Of the body.
Often head like that will be so big
that while part of it is still in the
water the tip of the mouth will be
high in the air, as high as the spars Of
the whaleship.
Then the whalers begin to c>s into
the head until they open what's kaawn
by them as the cease" This contains
the spermaceti. 1t is beautiful, clear,
whitish fluid, and it is dipped out with
buckets and put into special casks. It
is stored away in the hold in separate
place from the whale oil, and it brings
a good price at all times, for the de-
mand for spermaceti is unceasing.
The Chinese obtain a great deal OF
extremely fine wax from a small in
sect called pela. It lives on trees, and
the Chinese cultivate the pela Just as
other races breed the honey bee The
pela, however, produces nothing ex-
cept wax.
This insect produces small masses
Of pure white wax, and it is used by
the Chinese and japanese for making
candles to be burned in Buddhist tenn
pies. The wax is used also for me-
dicinal purposes.
Another wax insect lives in certais
districts of India. 1t is not propagated
as the Chinese pela is, but it produces
a very valuable wax, which will be
made an article of considerable COM
mercial Importance some day.-Sts

year I am going to have electric
lights, bat this season we must put
up with lamps. We will have things
in shape SO that we can sleep ashore
tonight. We will take dinner on the
yacht this evening, and this will be
your last meal afoat for some time"
After dinner the tide had so far
receded that Capt. Waters made
ready to drop the "Shark" into
deeper water. Hestor and his
guests returned to shore, and the
yacht glided out into the bay. Its
great searchlight, later in the even
ing, swept around the amphitheater
and aroused a chorus from birds and
roar from proving animals. Mr..
Pence declared he saw the flaming
eyes of some wild beast through the
palm trees, and was not at all re-
assured when Hestor informed him
that it was nothing but puma or
mountain lion
They are as common as rabbits
around here" he said. eff you leave
them alone they will not bother
you. They probably smell the meat
in the StorerOom."
All were wearied from the DAVIS
work, and at a little after nine
o'clock it was decided to retire for
the night. Hestor shook hands with
all and grasped Sidney Hammond's
hand with an earnest clasp. He again
expressed the hope that they would
enjoy their visit, and bidding them
goodnight retired to his room.
At five o'clock the following morn
ing the captives were aroused by a
great .outcry, and hammering at the
doors of their rooms. They found
Mr.. Pence rushing up and down the
veranda, wringing his hands and
moaning in terror.
''The boat is gone!" he cried.
''The Shark has gone away and left
us! We are lost! We are lost! We
are lost!"
ooh, shut up!" said Mr.. Kent and
he went back to his couch, and was
soon asleep.
Mr.. Walter B. Hestor, owner of the
| SHARK" and special envoy and cor
respondent of The New York Record
was not in his room. There was NO
trace of the "Shark" in "Morton's
Bay" The millionaires were ma
| rOoned.

I'VE are somewhere in the West
Indies. or in the Gulf of Mexico or
the Caribbean Sea-" said Sidney.
THAT is rather an indefinite answer,
l admit, but we should be able by
timing the sunrise by our watches
which are set by New York time-to
tell about how far west we are, and
possibly we can make a calculation
which will determine our approx
mate latitude. 1 am inclined to
think we are well to the west of
Cuba, and not many hundred miles
from the Mexican or Central Amer
lean coast"
Il entirely agree with you," said
Mr.. Morton. 81 kept as close watch
OF the direction taken as possible.
Monday was cloudy, but / am sure
that on that day and on a part of
Sunday we were going in westerly
or southwesterly direction. / figure
that we ran about 124 hours on a
fairly direct course to this island.
The Sharks course was erratic only
when Capt. Waters was avoiding
other craft. Now, if we averaged
20 miles an hour, that would make
total of 2,4S0 miles. 1t may be 100
miles either way from this esti-
mate"
Sidney produced an atlas from the
library, and all pored over the map
of North America, as if demanding
solution of the puzzle from the
tinted page.
You will not solve the problem
of where we are at by gazing at that
map" said Mr.. Kent ''There are
thousands of islands in, the West In
dies which are not on the map, and
we may be in any one of them"
Here is something that may be
of service to u.s." said Mr. Morton,
who had been absent for several
minutes. 81 took a notion to ex-
anime the room occupied by Mr.. Hes
tor last night, and l found this on
the dressing case"
Mr.. Hestor unrolled a sheet of ma
Mia drawing paper containing a
well-eXecuted map labeled 'Hesto-
ria" 1t was spread out on the din
ing table and examined amid much
excitement.
Here is what Hester named Nor
ton Bay" said Mr.. Carmody, point
ing to the pear-shaped lake, "and
the black L is the bungalow Here
are the hills which surround the
lake." said Mr.. Carmody pointing to
the shaded portions of the map, back
of the bungalow and around Morton
Bay"
This is not a complete map of
the island" said Sidney Hammond
1T is merely a detailed map of the
immediate surroundings of the bay
There is the reservoir he spoke
about, and here is the brook which
passes the bungalow Let's see If
we can find any other map in his
room"

A VILLAGE BLUCHER.
ResOurcefuI Editor of a Country Pa
per-SuccessfuIP Plan for Rails
ing Money.

Just what would have happened at
Waterloo if the Prussians had not
come up just when they did is still
matter of conjecture. 1t is less diff
ficult to determine what would have
happened at a certain town in Kan
sas, if certain editor had not driven
up at the right moment.
This editor, as he is described in the
Kansas City Journal, is the versatile,
resourcefuI manager of country
paper. He sweeps out his Office,
hndles fires, sets type, makes up the
forms, vets down the paper, inks the
roller, pulls the hand-press, kicks the
job-press, sOlicits advertising, gathers
news items, writes editorials, and
lives the soberer life of private citi-.
zen.
Not long ago a violent hail-storm
broke the window-lights of all the
churches of the village. The pastors
were at their wits ends to know how
to raise money to make the necessary
repairs. In the course of the morn
ing following the disaster they called
in body on the editor for advice.
After thinking briefly, he said:
Advertise hail-storm union social
for tonight. Gather up the hail
stones and freeze ice cream with
them. III print handbills for you to
circulate"
The scheme was adopted. The nov
city of eating ice cream frozen with
ice that had dropped from the clouds
brought out the whole town, and
now the churches in that town have
new windowights.

DAYS AND NIGHTS.

II days were only twice as long,
'Twould be a splendid thing!
Cause, don't you know, fore you're quite
dressed
The breakfast bell will ring;
And then it's time to go to school,
And then run home at noon,
And back to school; and four o'clock
Most always comes too soon;
And then you just begin to play,
And then it's time for tea;
And then, in such a little WHILE
Your bedtime comes, you see.
If nights were only twice as long,
'Twoud be a. splendid thing!
Cause, don't you know, when you're tucked
up
Sometimes your mother'll sing;
And first you lie and watch the stars,
Or maybe there's a moon,
And then you get all nice and warm.
And sleepy pretty soon;
And then, perhaps, you shut your eyes,
And then your motherll say:
'Have I a little boy who means
To lie in bed all day."

THE OTHER POINT Or VIEW.

To be little girl of ten
Seems nice enough-to boys and men:
j wonder If they ever tried
To argue from the other side?
don't suppose they'd ever guess
The stiffness of a starched white dress;
/ wonder how they'd like the hooks
Let alone the way it looks!
They never sit at home and sew,
And watch their brothers come and go;
i should not even like to say
That they would bear it for day!
They do not know how hard it seems
To be a girl still, in ones dreams,
To feel that one can never be
A drummer boy, or go to sea.
Our brothers say were hard to please
Because we long for things like these;
They think it is a pleasant life
To wait until you're someone's wife.
When I'm q wife I'll gladly sit
At home, and cook and sew and knit;
But there's a lot of waiting when
You're but little girl of ten.
Our brothers do not seem to know
That waiting can be very slow;
You see, they've never really tried
To argue from the other side!

TabhY Winds a Clock.

Did you ever hear of a cat that winds
a clock? There is one in North Dakota.
Her name is Tabby, and she never has
to be told when to wind the clock. She
lust sits near it as the time draws near.
and when the hands are at the right
place she climbs up and attends to the
matter. Of course, she doesn't have
key. 1t isn't that kind CT a clock.
There are weights, and Tabby draws
the weights down that have gone up
during "a hours. That keeps the clock
poing for "a hours again.

surroundings and made herself at
home in one corner of the shop. TWAS
a cold, clustering afternoon, and the
workman who had charge of closing
the shop didn't have the heart to put
the cat out into the storm when he
went home. Since then 'Tabby" has
lived at fire headquarters, and is con-
sidered an attache of the department.
'Tabby" has no long pedigree, and
has never won blue ribbons in cat
shows, but for intelligence fremen are
willing to wager their months pay that
there is no cat-show feline who de-
serves higher marks. She knows every
man attached to headquarters, and al
most every superior officer in the de-
partment. Like fremen and horses, she
has learned to count the alarm bells
which ring in the station, and is said
by fremen to know the boxes to which
tower wagon No. 2 responds. Lieut..
Porter has charge, and she looks upon
him as her master. She will obey
commands from him, but has been
known to ignore firemen in his squad.
The Oliver street blaze was the great
est that ''Tabby" ever witnessed, and
the distance was the longest she ever
travelled on a fire wagon, but it was by
no means the first fire she had been
to. Firemen tell stories of the cat
following the tower for blocks year
ago, not daring to mount the drivers
seat for fear of being driven back to
the station, and having remained I'M
der the tower until the fire was out.
During the past few months she has
been to a number of fires and ridden
beside the driver.
The other evening the excitement
was so intense in fire circles that
"Tabby" almost lost her head. It was
the night when seven bell alarms were
sounded inside of two hours and fire
men were kept on the jump. The con-
slant ringing of bells caused ''Tabby"
to run back and forth in the station
and cry to go out.
When the bell came for the tower
company to start, ''Tabby" made leap
to the drivers seat. She was there be-
fore the horses had left their stalls.
The driver knew that big fire was in
progress, and that there was some dis
lance to travel. His first thought was
to tell '.Tabby" that she couldn't go.
He pushed her off the seat with a
command to remain behind. But "Tab-
by was not to be left behind. She
seemed to realize that something out
of the ordinary was going on and want
ed to be at the scene.
Just as the tower was leaving the
house ''Tabby" once more leaped to the
drivers seat. This time she remained,
because the driver had his hands full
taking care Of the horses. She rode to
the fire with her forepaws on the driv
er's knee and her head between his
arms. While the tower was in use she
remained on the seat, Notwithstanding
the fact that the tower was located
close to the burning building, where
the smoke was the Gensest and where
sparks were falling frequently. Tab
by got back to the station unframed.
She appeared to have enjoyed herself
so much that in the future she will not
be molested when she expresses a de-
sire to accompany the tower to fire.

May, he would not have imagined
they were marooned. Even Mr.. Pence

courage. The cooling waters of a

TO Make a Square Kite.

One of the easiest to make, perhaps,
is the square kite. The frame is con-
posed of split bamboo, and should be
covered with tightly stretched Scotch
cambria. Although called square,"
vet it is not exactly so, it being about
one-half longer than it is broad. The
frame should be bent backward, both
at the top and bottom. This is to
make the kite bulge outward, posi-
ton which should be maintained by
means of Irvine stretched from the
corners, both above and below. The
breastband should be attached in the
usual manner, and the completed kite
should have two tails instead of one.
one at each lower corner.
