to it, said HoSkinS modeStly. "A
brave man and a pretty woman are
two of the finest sights in creation.
They ought always to be together
There was something in his one that
made her blush. and though she agreed
with him, she took the first opportunity
OF clearing off to another part of the
deck.
Shortly afterwards we put to sea.
For the next few days we had the
best weather, and everything went
smoothly. l could see one or two
things that set me thinking. The
first was that the old man was making
himself uncommonly attentive TO Miss
Sanford. The second was that Mr..
Hay, in a quiet and timid sort of way,
was thinking a good deal of her too.
For my part, / thought the girl fancied
Hay rather than Hoskins: and though
she couldn't avoid the ''old man, and
could not help listening to his sea
yarns, 1 could see her eyes turning
forwards towards the waist, where
Hay was putting in his time looking
at the lion.
One afternoon the skipper was sit
ting beside Miss Sanford on the poop
deck, when Hay came up the COM
panion and made his way towards
them.
There's something I want to tell
you, Captain" he said. Its getting
on my mind and making me quite I'M
comfortable. That man whose bust
ness it is to look after the lion isn't
doing his work properly. The animal
isn't getting enough food. 1t is de-
veloping a savage nature. And yester-
day, when l went to see the man about
1t, I found that he was intoxicated.
l really think you should interfere"
OF course, the "old man" should
have interfered. But he didn't like
being told his duty by the little Pro-
f%essor, especially when the girl was
about, so he just sneered.
Il 81 pose you're afraid of the beast
escaping?' he said.
Il should certainly regard it as un-
fortunate" the little man replied.
You see. a drunken man might be
careless about the fastenings. l must
really insist upon your speaking to
him"
Hes not one of my crew." said
Hoskins. 81 have enough to do to
look after them. If any of them get
drunk, they'll hear of it. But this chap
is a passenger, even If he is only a
Storage one. He can do as he likes
with his spare time. If you're so
darned frightened about the beast,
you'd better look to the fastenings
yourself"
Excuse me- said the Professor
stiffiy, that is not my business. The
animal does not belong to me. l have
done what | believe to be my duty and
can say no more"
He turned away without eve =
glance at the girl.

after him, lis frightened of his own

MoSgaret Anglin, who refused to pro-
coed with the third act of William
Vaughn Moody's play until he signed
a document giving her the exclusive
American, English and Australian
rights to If, was born in the Canadian
House Of Parliament twenty-five years
ago. That her birthplace was I'M
usual resulted from the fact that her
father, Timothy Anglin, was Speaker
of the Canadian House and her mother
was there during a session.
Miss Anglin has been on the stage
ten years, her first important engage
ment being with James O'Neill, with
whom she played Mercedes in "Monte
Cristo.' In Mansfield's production of
the famous "CyranO de Bergerac" she
had the part of RoXanne, and later
was star in the Empire Theatre Stock
Company of New York. For two years
she has been at the head of her own
company, and has achieved marked
succesS in 'Zira."

The Professor 80
and The LionM
BY j. SackvI1Ie Martin.
NFRomThe Skefch.'

Bravery, Doctor, said my friend the
third officer, isn't such a simple thing
as you think it. One man is brave in
n way, and a%notherin Il different one.
Often enough, that which is called
bravery is nothing more than custom.
You wouldn't go up on the fore-royal-
yard in half a gale to reef sail, would
you? Not you! You'd be afraid.
Well, you might think me a brave man
because [ would. But then I'd be
afraid to cut a chaps leg off, and you
wouldn't.
That was what old Captain Hoskins,
whom | used to sail with, could never
understand. If Il man was a bit nerv-
Gus about the sea, he used to look
down on him as all sorts of a coward.
But there came a day when he learned
better.
1t happened when l was with him
In a three-masted sailing-ship, the
Arrow. We lay at Singapore, along
side Taniong Pagan wharf. loading
with q general cargo for Liverpool.
The principal object in that cargo was
q lion that we We're shipping for
London. 1t lay in a strong cage of
wood and iron, with a door in the
front through which it could be fed.
1t was a fine big brute, and every time
1t stretched itself you could see the
muscles slipping over its sides and the
big. wicked-looking claws peeping out
of the pads of it's feet in a way that
made You very thankful for the bars.
We had a passenger or two, one OF
whom was a young girl who went by
the name of Hilda Sanford. Directly
the old man set eyes on her trim figure
and her wealth of golden hair, he was
struck all of a heap, SO to speak, and |
could see that he was promising him
self a mighty pleasant voyage.
The other passenger was a strange,
lean. wiry man, who wore gold eye
glasses, and kept peering about the
ship in Il most uncomfortable way.
He gave his name as Professor Hay,
though we didn't find out what he pro-
fessed until later.
An hour or two before we started
this Mr.. Hay came up to the old man
and began asking him a lot of ques
lions.
Captain" he said nervously, 81 hope
we shall have a quiet passage"
81 don't see why we shouldn't"
said Hoskins genially.
Mr.. Hay looked up at the sky.
''There seems to be y good deal OF
wind about" he said.
Pretty fair" said Hoskins. THAT'S
what's going to take us home. Not
being a steamer, VT can't do without
tt"
You're sure it's quite safe" asked
Hay.
"Safe!" says the old man, getting ON
his high horse, "safei I'm sailing this
ship
The Professor smiled apologetically.
You will excuse me, Captain" he
said, 81 did not mean any offence.

The "old man" looked at him with a
sort of g~ood-natured contempt.

seemed to have a sort of attraction for
him, for he stood before 1t for at least
a quarter of an hour. Hoskins looked
after him. and then turned to Miss
Sanford. who was sitting near.

q woman. It's natural to them. But
with a man it's different. A man
ought to be afraid of nothing
And are you not afraid of anything,
