''Hello, captain"

az feared so. Watch close the river
and bay. They are covered with those
fool fishermen tonight. The light OF
morning will find plenty of work for us
to do"
Thus spoke the captain of the life
saving station to the man on the look
out.
Night had already closed in and the
captain of the life saving station knew
a storm was coming. He was at the
station below the rocks and could not
see out on the ocean but had called to
the man stationed on the hill to verify
the evidence of the storm. The instru-
ments at the station indicated storm,
but the rising, surging, slashing, crack
ing breakers on the rocks gave more
formidable warning to the experienced
life saver.
1t is the same old story at the mouth
of the Columbia. From fall unit

1t is true that the rattlesnake and
the black snake are mortal enemies,
and the black snake is the victor in
their battles. breaking the neck of his
adversary before the RATHER has time

country are as harmless as frogs. On
many of the large plantations in the
South they are tanned and kept as a

CHAPTER XVI-Continued.

The island was soon reached and |
the man taken ashore. The morning |
was crisp and cold and fire of drift
wood was kindled for the comfort OF
the wounded man and his companions.
AS the day Jagged away the man grew
worse. Dan was his most attentive
nurse. In the afternoon he persuaded
his companions that it would be better
to take the wounded man to his home.
They agreed upon this but they did
not know what to do with their pris-
oner. On the southside they could not
hold him, and if they left him on the
island he might be compelled to re-
main for several days without assist
ance. They wanted him to accompany
them to thier homes, but Dan bad mat
ters of more Importance demanding his
attention on the north side. He told
them to leave him on the island and he
would take his chances on reaching
shore.
The fishermen pulled out with then
wounded companion, reluctantly leav-
ing Dan behind.
Throughout the day Lapham walked
up and down the island viewing his
friends and enemies as they lay on
their oars in threatening attitudes.
He managed, however, to keep con-
cealed behind the driftwood from his
enemies, while he was too far away tc
be distinguished by his friends.
He had searched the island from one
end to the other for a boat, but the
southsiders had intended making this
sort of prison had they carried out theil
original plans and had removed every
semblance of craft from the place.
Besides the island had always beer
a sort of neutral ground and since th'
quarrel had begun, neither side at
tempted to occupy it and all fishing ap
paratus and supplies had been takel
away by the respective owners.
As night came on. Dan became NOR
anxious to reach the north shore. ii
wondered how many of his friends ha
fallen under the fire of the southsiders
and wondered more how Sankala wa
faring.
Old Seadog was too much absorbed
the trouble at hand to carry out hl
plan of taking Sankala and Ringwol
to the county poor farm, but he kne
the girl was worrying her young III
away over the outlook for the futui
and possibly by this time. so far as b
knew, che was grieving by the bedsio
of the deceased Ringwold.
The impatient young fisherman cou
remain an exile no longer. He col
structed raft flom planks and timbe
which had lodged ON the shores of II
island and with pieces of planks use
as po.es and paddles he started for Il
main shore.
Before his work had been complete
however, night had long since fall
over the waters and storm was bre'
ing.
The same sound from the clash
the wave and current on the bar gree
ed his ears at that moment that ma
the frail Sankala tremble with fear
she left the north shore to search
him that she might give him the 10
she had prepared for him and OF viii
she thought he must by this time be
such dire need.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all it's stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure Is the only positive cure known to The medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Halls Ca tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby de- stroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and as. sisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in it's curative powers, that they offer one hundred dollars for any case that 1t fails to cure. Send for list of testt- monials.

Dr. Hartman receives many letters from Catholic Sisters from all over the United States. A recommend recently received from a Catholic institution in Detroit, Mich., reads as follows:
 pr. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio:
 Dear Sir:' - The young girl who used the Peruna was suffering from Iaryngitis, and loss of voice. The re- suit of the treatment was most sats- factory. She found great relief, and after farther use of the medicine we hope to be able to say she is entirely cured" Sisters of Charity.
 This young girl was under the care of the Sisters of Charity and used Peruna for catarrh of the throat, with good re- suits as the above letter testifies
 From a Catholic institution in Cen traI Ohio comes the following recom- mend from the Sister Superior:
 Some years ago friend of our inssi- tuition recommended to us Dr. Hart . mans Peruna as an excellent remedy for the influenza of which we then had several cases which threatened to be of a serious character.
 We began to use it and experienced such wonderful results that since then

Peruna has become our favorite medi- cine for influenza, catarrh, cold, cough and bronchitis"
 Another recommend from a Catholic institution of one of the Central States written by the Sister Superior reads as follows:
 "A number of years ago our atten- ton was called to Dr. Hartman's Pe- runa, and since then we have used 1t with wonderful results for grip, coughs, colds and catarrhal diseases of the head and stomach.
 For grip and winter catarrh espe- cially it has been of great service to the inmates of this institution"

The Widows Of America.

A Chicago mathematician announces that Chicago, with 6O,396 widows, has a larger number than any other com munity in the country. It is added that the number of widowers in the city Is only 23,097.
 As a matter of fact, the State in which widows are most numerous is New York, in which they number 820,- 900. The city in which they are most numerous is the city of New York. where there are 1O5,O00.
 There were by the last federal cen. sus 2,720000 widows in the whole United States, of whom, 1t is worthy to remark, sS,OOO were in Indiana and only 5000 in Utah.
 There were 12S0O0 in Massachusetts, less than the total number in the two States of Alabama and Mississippi. though the view pretty generally pre- vails that the number of widows is dis proportionately large throughout New England.
 There are nearly 2O00 in Hawaii and 1,7O0 in Alaska, a approximately larger number than in the city of Chi cago.

She has been sick with malaria and troubled with leucorrhoea. I have no doubt that cure will be speedily effected"

WHAT THE MARKET AFFORDS

Domestic ducks are no sort Of a sub
stitute for game, but, as the wild birds
are quite unattainable by the ordinary
person, they are obliged to content them
selves with what can be purchased in
the markets. Poultry is at it's best dur
ing the fall months. and young ducks
will make a fine dinner on Sunday. The
best cooks are generally agreed that
it does not improve poultry to stuff it,
but most people like. the stuffing, SO
ducks are generally stuffed with an
onion dressing. Onions should accom-
pany duck and these are best prepared
by roasting. The large Spanish onions
now in the market are delicious with
no dressing but melted butter. Small.
firm, white onions roasted and glazed
with brown caramel sauce are a pref.
ty and tempting dish, and may be used
on the platter with either roast duck
or chicken as a garnish. Spring ducks
are now large and fat, and sell for IL
cents a pound. -. H. s.s.e
Roast chicken is pretty good eating
but its savoriness is much enhanced by
serving with it thin slices of baked Of
boiled ham or sausages. The sausages
| roasted brown make a good garnish. II
Europe it is uncommon to see colo
roast chicken served alone, ham is it,
| general accompaniment. Here one sci
dom gets the combination except il
! swell tearoom sandwiches under fancy
name, but nothing is easier to provide
for the home table. ="
