Bravery. DoctI,. said my friend the
third officer isn't such a simple thing
as YOU think II. One man Is brave In
one way, and anotherin 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 brave man
because I would. But then ia be
afraid TO cut chaps leg of, and you
wouldn't.
That. was what old Captain Hoskins.
whom / used to sail with. could never
understand. IL Il man was a bit nerv-
Gus about the sea, he used to look
down on him as all sorts of coward
But there came a day when he learned
better.
1t happened when 1 was with him
In a three-nfa sailing-sh{p. the
Arrow. We lay at Singapore, along
side Tanjong Pagan wharf, loading
with n general cargo for Liverpool
The principal object in that cargo was
a hon that we were shipping for
london. 1t Fay In a strong cage OF
wood and iron, with door in the
front through which IT could he fed
1t was a fine big brute, and every time
it Stretched itself YOU could see the
muscles slipping over its sides and the
big. wicked looking claws peeping out
OF the pads OF its feet ia a way that
made you very thankful for the bars.
We had 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 heap, so TO speak, and 1
could see that he was promising him
self a mighty pleasant voyage.
THE other passenger was a strange
lean, why man. who wore gold eye
glasses, and kept peering about the
ship in a most uncomfortable way.
He gave his name as Professor Hay.
though we didn't find ont 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 lot of ques-
tions.
Captain" he said nervousiy, Il hope
We shall have quiet passage"
II don't see why we shouldn't"
said Hoskins geniaHy.
Mr.. Hay looked up at the sky.
There seems to be q good deal OF
wind about he said
Pretty fair" said Hoskins. That's
what's going to take us home Not
being a steamer, We cant do without
it."
you're sure It's quite safe?' asked
Hay
Safe says the old man, getting on
his high horse, safe! I'm sailing this
ship
The Professor smiled apoIogeticafIy.

said, Il did not mean any offence.

sort of good-natured contempt.

said; wen take you to England safe

The Professor smiled again and
walked off into the waist, where we
had fixed UP the Hons cage. It
seemed to have sort of attraction for
him, FOR he stood before Il for at least
o quarter of an hOur. Hoskins looked
after him. and then turned to Miss
Sanford, who was sitting near.
''Nlce sort Of chap to have ON n

"Wcn. you know. I have fellow
