too, watched the shadows rise and
suIlenly hang between the great rocks.

"'Tis quare, that-what the seven
thunders uttered" said Solomon. my.

AN he set his right foot upon the

graying water to the clouds which

An cried with a loud voice" said
he. whispering in awe, as when lion
roareth; an when he had cried, seven
thunders uttered their voices"
Seven thunders uttered their
voices said she; IAN when the sew
en- thunders had uttered their voices, I
was about to write, an I heard a voice
from heaven sayin' unto me, Seal up
those things which the seven thunders
uttered, an write them not"
The wind from the wilderness, cold
and black, covered the hills with mist;
the dusk fell. and the glory faded from
the heights.
"Oh, Solomon" she said, clasping her
hands, Il wonder what the seven thun-
ders uttered! Think you, by, twas the
kind O sins that can't be forgiven"
"Sh-h-h, dear" he said, patting her

wind made sport of the strength Of his
arms. He was carried out to sea, row.
Ing doggedly, thinking all the time that
he was drawing near the harbor tickle;
for it did not occur to him then that
the last Of 500 gales could be to great
for him. He was carried out from the
sea, where the strength of his youth
had been spent, to the deep, which had
been a mystery to him all his days.
That night he passed on a pan Of Ice,
where he burned his boat. splinter by
splinter, to keep warm. At dawn he lay
down to die.
The snow ceased, the wind changed;
the ice was carried to Ragged Harbor.
EleaZar Manuel spied the body Of
Solomon from the lookout and put out
and brought him in--revived him and
took him home to Priscilla. Through
the winter the old man doddered
about the harbor, dying of consump-
ton. When the tempered days came
the days of balmy sunshine and cold
evening winds-he came quickly to the
pass of glittering vision, which, for
such as die of the lung trouble, come
at the end of life
In the spring, when the Lucky Star,
three days out from Boot bay, put into
Ragged Harbor to trade for the first
catch, old Skipper Luke Dart was

Twenty-one years longer old Solo

five more famines-all in the toll for
salmon and cod. He was punt fisher

nets of the trap had rotted, had been
renewed six times, strand by strand,
and had rotted at last beyond repair
What with the weather he dared not
pit his falling strength against, the re-
turn of fish to Luke Dart fell off from
year to year; but, as Solomon said to
Luke: 'Livin' expenses KEEP up won

"Many's the quintal O. fish you traded

Sure" Solomon chuckled; "'twould

In course Of time 1t came to the end
Of Solomon's last season-those days
or 1t when, as the folk Of the coast say,
the sea Is hungry for lives-and the
man was eighty one years old, and the
debt to Luke Dart had erept UP to

Priscilla smiled, and Solomon smiled:
and 1t was as though all the labor and
peril of the season were past, and the
stage were full to the roof with salt

they smiled again, and turned their
eyes to the hills, from which the glory
Of purple and yellow was departing to

When he came ashore, Eleazar Manuel
told him that Solomon Stride lay dying
at home; so the skipper went to the
cottage under the Man-o'- War to saw
good-by to his old customer and friend
and there found him, propped up in
bed, staring at the sea.

in deep excitement, ''be you just come

There had been no craft in sight

Luke, evasively.

A whaIebone Substitute.

The increasing scarcity Of whalebone
mas attracted the attention Of merchants
and inventors all the world over to the
discovery of substitutes for use in corset
and dressmaking, but so far few salts
factory ones have been discovered.
steel Is In many respects the best sinh
stltute and in some it is superior to
WnaIebone- It's fatal defects are its ten
dency to rust and its sharp edges, which
cut the fabric of the corset. While it has
almost exclusively replaced whalebOne in
Inc cheaper grades of corsets these two
defects have shut it out entirely from use
oy the nigh grade commercial and custom
corsetnakers. Horn strips and other sub
stltutes lack the resiliency and lightness
Ihere Is substitute now on the mar
Ket which seems to fill about all the re-
qulrements. 1t IS composed Of thin strips
or steel of the highest grade, covered
with a composition which absolutely pro-
tects 1t from rust, and which at the same
tlme, having rounded edges, protects the
FABRIC OF the corset or dress from being
cut by the sharp edges Of the steel I'm
like whalebone. 1t Is practically indie
stuct1ble, possesses greater resiliency
and Is much thinner than whalebone OF
equal strength, which is a strong point in
It's favor. The chief drawback to its use
Is that 1t cannot be cut to the lengths re-
CURED, but the manufacturer declares
Lhat 1t is unnecessary to cut it-NeW

ger, lurking in the shadows Of days to
come. inexorably drove him into The
chances of the conflict. Perforce he
matched himself ten thousand times
against the restless might of the sea,
Unreasonable and unrestraincd sur
vtving the gamut of it's moods because
he was great in strength, fearless and
cunning. He weathered four hundred
gales, from the gray gusts which come
down between Quid Nunc and the
Man o'-War, leaping upon the fleet, to
the summer tempests, swift and black,
and the first billiards Of winter. He
was wrecked off the Null, off the Three
Poor Sisters, on the Pancake rock, and
again off the Null. Seven times he was
swept to sea by the off-shore wind.
Eighteen times he was frozen to the
seat of his punt; and Of these, eight
times his feet were frozen, and thrice
his festered right hand. All this he
suffered, and more, of which may set
down six separate periods OF starva-
ton, in which thirty eight men, Wom-
en- and children died-all this, with all
the toll. cold, despair, loneliness, hun
ger, peril and disappointment therein
contained.
And so he came down to old age
with a. bent back, shrunken arms and
filmy eyes-old Solomon's Stride, now
prey for the young sea- But, of an
evening in spring, he sat with Priscilla
on the sunlxen bench at the door, and
talked hopefully of the fish he would
catch from this punt.
Priscilla, DEAR" said he, rubbing his
hand over his weakened thigh, II be

Priscilla was not attending; she was
looking into the shadows above the
harbor water, dreaming deeply of q

Sure she said.
Priscilla held his hand a long Tina
after that-a long, silent time. in which
the soul of the man struggled to release
itself, until it was held but by a thread.

The old man seemed not to hear.

to her face. There was a CLEAN Of a
tender smile in them.

She waited, rigid, listening, to hear
the rest; but no words came to her
ears.

Now, in that night, when the body Of
old Solomon Stride a wornOut hulk,
aged and wrecked in the toll OF the
deep, fell into the hands of Death. the
sea, like lusty youth, ragged furiously
in those parts. The ribs Of many
schooners, Shiny and rotten, and the
white bones of men in the off-shore
depths, knew Of it's strength in that
hour-of it's black, hard wrath, in gust
and wave and breaker
Eternal in might and malignance is
the sea! 1t groweth not old with the
men who toll from it's coasts. As it IS
written, the life of a man is a shadow,
swiftly passing, and the days Of his
strength are less; but the sea shall en-
dure, in the might of youth to tho
wreck of the world.
