intelligent cannibals'' had promised to
recruit" with me to work for three
years in Samoa on the cotton planta-
tons, and l felt nightly pleased with
myself, as I gave each man a present
OF some beads, a knife, and some to-
bacco, on account of the magnificent
salary each was to receive-six pounds
per year in trade-goods. They promised
to come on board later on in the day
with their relatives, when 1 was to
make them a further advance of what
ever might take their fancy in the
trade-room.
Just as I was about to get back into
the boat l remembered Waters, who
had gone along to little bay some
distance away, where there was a
beach of fine white sand-the spot
where the boats were had q muddy

Just along there, SIR and he point
ed to the sandy beach, which 1 could
pick him up there
Remarking that he had no business to
go so far away from the boats in new
place, 1 got into the boat, and had just
taken the haft of the steer-oar in my
hand when the second mate gave YELL
Look out, Sir! Look QUIT" and then
he and his boats crew opened fire as
a shower of spears rained upon US from
the shore. Only one, however, did any
serious damageit hit one of the Fiji
men, who was pulling stroke and went
through his thigh. But in less than
two minutes we were out of spear
range, and then both boats set off to
pick up Waters
3Hes all right, Sir" cried the second
mate, ..he has your Winchester. He's
c. oming to meet u.s."
Waters was running-not very fast
along the beach, carrying a bag of
sand in one hand. and my Winchester
in the other. Suddenly he stopped, and
threw himself fat down upon the sand
his bag of sand in front of him, and
facing towards the dense bush less than
twenty yards distant. Then at the
same moment as the Winchester crack
ed a shower of spears flew about him,
and again and again he fired, whilst
we in the boats, although we could
not see a single native, began firing
into the bush from whence the spears
were coming. Then we rushed the
boats for the beach, and whilst the
men in the covering-boat went to see
to Waters, my crew and I tore up the
bank, bent on getting to close quarters
with his treacherous assailants. Not
a single live native could be seen, but
we found three dead and two wound

In a few minutes we were on our
way to the brig, and Waters was laid
out on the skylight and whilst the
captain dressed his wounds, the mate
got the ship to sea again. Then we
stood away for New Ireland.
In three weeks Waters had recover
ed and was at work again, and was
of great assistance in helping US to
get nearly forty recruits at Ralum,
on the north coast of New Britain,
where he was well known to the
natives. Then we worked back to New
ireland, and got sixty more, which
made US a full ship and left us to
thrash our way against the southeast

officer saw him his face flushed, and

A Wonderful Discovery.

Broadland s. OAK, April 17.-Quite
a sensation has been created here by
the publication OF the story Of q. w,
Gray, who after a special treatment
for three months was PROSTATE and
helpless and given up to die with
Bright's Disease. Bright's Disease has
always been considered incurable, but
evidently from the story told by Mr..
Gray, there is remedy which will
cure 1t even in the most advanced
stages. This is what he says:
Il was helpless as little babe. My
wife and | searched everything and
read everything we could find about
Bright's Disease, hoping that would
be able to find remedy. After many
failures my wife insisted that | should
try Dodd's Kidney Pills. praise God

for this remedy met every phase Of
my case and in short time l was
able To get out of bed and after few
weeks treatment | was strong, well
man. Do6d's Kidney Pills saved my
life"
A remedy that will cure Bright's
Disease will cure any lesser Kidney
Disease. Dodds Kidney Pills are Ger.
tainly the most wonderful discovery
which modern medical research has
given to the world.

PASSING OF THE SILK HAT.
Headgear Not Fashionable as II Was
Years AGO.

Years Ago.
"The silk hat" said the manager Of
a fashionable hat store, has about
run its course for day wear Only
elderly men, and comparatively few
OF them, wear 1t in the daytime.
Fifteen years ago we often sold
more silk hats in day than we now
sell in two weeks. Young men wore
them then both day and evenings.
You could see professions Of silk hats
on Broadway and all the downtown
streets.
But the silk hat will return. Its
passing is merely a within of fashion.
1t is the most dressy hat a man can
wear and also the most economical.
A good silk hat will stand more wear
and tear than three derbys or fedoras.
1t can be ironed to look like new, no
matter what has happened to 1t.
Most of our customers are well-to-
do, but lots of them in the old days
