SHANGHIED ARTIST
MADE LONG TRIP
On Water and on Foot lie
Game Back Home.

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-(SpeciaD-
One evening last May Lester B. Will
let's, an artist, thirty-seven years
old, left the house where he was stay
ing in San Francisco, and started out
to see the sights. The trip ended to-
day when the British steamship Hor-
atius arrived at Brooklyn. Willetts
was "shanghe6' on the British
schooner Glendoyer and worked as
a common sailor until the vessel ar
rived at Melbourne, Australia. From
there he shipped again as sailor to
Valparaiso. Chile, where he met Ed
ward E. Miller, a violinist, who had
gone down from San Francisco in
search of health.
Together they agreed to ship for
Australia, and after a rough passage
arrived at Sydney. Here they de
serted" and started across the bush"
for Melbourne. After many hardships
they arrived at the port and once
more set out for South America, on
the tramp ship Mongol. The Mongol
touched at Antasagasta, lonely nj
trate port in South America, and
when Willets and Miller came back
to the harbor after an excursion after
game. the Mongol was a speck on the
horizon

Crossed on Desert.

AS there was no prospect of see
ing another ship for at least year,
the two started across the continent
for the east coast, 500 miles away.
They had to cross the Andes, and for
several days they toiled among
snowdrifts and slept at night with
only one blanket apiece.
Miller chung to his violin through
their hardships, and when the saw
ages heard him play they took him
for a divinity.
Ragged and footsore, they arrived
at Buenos Ayres. There the Amer
lean consul introduced them to Capt
Watterson of the Horatius, who let
them work their passage to this city.
Miller's violin won favor for him
self and Willets, and the whole crew
lined up at the rail to bid the two
wanderers farewell.

from college he had always had with

freight of these books--that they were
not legitimate passengers luggage.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use SO much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also. affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
Bile can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch. as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
er strength than other makes.

The extraordinary popularity of fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch matter of great I'm
portance. Defiance Starch, being free
from all injurious chemicals, is the
only one which is safe to use on fine
fabrics. It's great strength as stiffener
makes half the usual quantity of Starch
necessary, with the result of perfect
finish, equal to that when the goods
we're new.
