A Successful Salesman.

The late Thomas Bracket Reed used
70 relate the following incident which
happened one summer while he was
spending a few days in a small fishing
village on the New England coast.
A young countryman who had been ad-
vlsed TO take sea baths registered at the
village hotel one evening, and shortly
afterward sauntered down to the beach.
Espying a grizzled old fisherman mend
ing his nets beneath n sign which in
formed one that B had boats and
tackle to lei and bait for sale, he ac.
costed the veteran and asked him if the
water was not for sale also. On re-
ceiving the affirmative reply the coun-
tryman returned to the hotel. obtained
a couple of buckets, and having paid the
price asked, filed them and returned to
his room to carry out the doctors in
structions.
On the following morning he happened
down at the beach when the tide was
out, and after contemplating the broad
receding beaches for some minutes ap.
preached his acquaintance of the even
ing before and remarked in a tone of
admiration, Gosh! but you must have
done some business last night New

THE SUNKEN FLEET.

Sailors and men well-versed in deep-sea lore
Tell US so fathomlesS the oceans bed
That sunken ships re'er reach its depths,
instead,
They float and moulder, drifting eyermore
Caught in some unknown current, far from
shore;
STANCE fleet, whose sailors are the ghostly
dead,
Sad feet, DER whom so many tears are
she'd
Helmless, distressed, unsped by sail Or oar.
Unhailed unless there comes Il moaning cry
From broken wreck to wreck, across the
dark,
From some tall Spaniard to Phoenican
bark,
Or high-prowed Roman galley, passing by,
Detected: or a Viking giveth hail
To that lost schooner of last Winter

FEAR THE SEVEN WHISTLERS,"
Superstition Which Has Caused Many
Mining Strikes in England.

In some parts of England peculiar
whistling or yelping noises are heard in
the air after dusk and early in the morn
ing before daylight during the winter
months. Sometimes, however, the noise
IS described as beautiful sounds like music
nigh up in the air, which gradually die
away. The general belief is that the
seven whlstlers," as they are called are
the foretellers of bad luck, disaster or
death to some one in the locality. 1t is
very ancient suggestion. Both swifts
ana ploVers have been suggested as the
Whlstlers. 1t may be noted that plovers
are additionally supposed to contain the
sous OF those who assisted at the cruel
NIXON and Ill consequence were doomed to
noat In the air forever. Really the
wnistlers are widgeOn, or teal, as they
NIT from their feeding grounds, q passage
always made under cover of darkness. In
shropshire the sound is described as re-
semDlng that of many larks singing, and
the folklore Of both Shropshire and
worcestershire says: ''They are seven
birds, and the six fly about continually
together looking for the seventh. and
when they find him, the world will come
to an end

IN September, 1874. the following para
graph went the round Of the papers: "On
Monday morning large numbers of the
miners employed at the Bedworth collier
les, III North Warwickshire, giving way
to superstition which has long prevailed
among their class, refused to descend into
the pits in which they are employed. Dur
ing Sunday night it was stated that the
seven whistlers' had been distinctly heard
IN the nelghborhood Of Bedworth, and the
result was that on the following morning
many of the men positively refused to
descend into the PITS

great explosion in the eos, and before
another in 1890, when nearly a hundred
miners were entombed In December.
1895, it was said that they had been heard
yet again, whereupon the men struck
work and could not be induced to resume
it until the government inspector made a
close examination of the workings and re-
ported all safe. In July, 1902. another
instance of colliery strike founded upon
the same superstition occurred in Eng
