their places, one by one,, and last OF all
came the second mate who was now IN com'
mand.
But just as they were about to shove on
from the sinking vessel, one of the men SUI
denly called out:
"Halloo! Where's Joe?"
Joe was the American cabin boy, an orphan
lad, who had been shipped at the last mo-
ment to fill up vacancy. .,..
''Never mind, joe" growled the mate; n
he war'nt ready in time, that's his own
lookout. Our lives are worth as much to us

Shove off, boys!'
later the boat was lost to view amid the fast
falling shadows of night
Scarcely had she disappeared, when soil
tary figure was seen to emerge upon the deck
of the deserted schooner, In the last pale
gleam of sunset, and to glance around with
an air of utter bewilderment.r :.
And well might poor Joe Harris (for ne u
wasl look so bewildered. Having worked at
the humps with the rest, till he was COM
nleteiy worn out, he had gone. below as soon
ss he was relieved and had fallen asleep from
sheer exhaustion, and in the sudden panic he
had been forgotten till it was too late

bnt Of the schooners four boats, two had
been swept away by the storm, a third had
pece;ved injuries which there had been no
time to repair, and the fourth had been taken
W Tn rs sneh a plight the boldest man might
veil have despaired; but the sturdy lad from
Maine who was as tough and hardy as the
n;nes Of his native State, had no thought OF
giving in while there was chance lett.

| recognized at glance as the schooner which
they had abandoned forever-as they thought
only few hours before.
For moment the forlorn men were again
panic stricken, for SO firmly were they con-
vlnced that the schooner must have sunk
within a few minutes of their quitting her.
tnat when she suddenly reappeared in this
ghostly fashion, looming shadow-like through
the the parting mist in the pale light of dawn,
they were more than half-inclined to regard
destruction.
But the captain-who had by this time re-
gained his senses-at once exclaimed, joyfully:
Its the old barky herself, and if she has
mt gone down yet, it's because she, don't mean
The men railying from their momentary
scare, obeyed with will, and the boat was
soon alongside
The worn-out cabin boy was still fast asleep
but the joyous bark with which old Neptune
greeted his masters return woke up Joe, and
he cried out, eagerly:
you've come back for me, then mates? l
thought you wouldn't leave me in the lurch
that way, for good"
The men hung their heads without answer
ing, and the second mate turned hastily away.
But just at that moment every other
thought was swept clear out of their minds
by shout from one of the crew, who had
gone forward.
"We're saved, mates! There's the smoke
Of steamer yonder, on the starboard bow.
Hurrah!"
"Hurrah hurrahl" echoed the others, with
one voice.
But to this moment of rejoicing succeeded an
anxious pause, for it was quickly seen that the
steamer was not heading straight toward
them, but following an oblique course which
would soon carry her away from them, unless
she sighted them and changed it.
What was to be done? Their small signal
gun had been swept overheard, and blue lights
or rockets they had none. In fact, their only
hope of rescue now lay in the reversed en-
sign, which Joe Harris forethought had hoist
ed the night before and which was now hut-
tering brayely out in the fresh morning
breeze.
Would the steamer see it? For time, it
seemed as if she were about to pass on, un-
needing, and the hearts of the castaways died
within them; but all at once, the same man
who had first sighted the steamer was heard
to shout rejoicingly:
"She sees us, boys-she sees us! She's
changing her course! We've saved! we're
savedi'
Saved, indeed, they were. The steamer was
seen to alter her course and bear right down
upon them, and, two hours later, they were
all safe on board of her.
Joe Harris was the hero of the whole ship
when it was known what he had done; and,
in after years, when the orphan cabin boy
commanded fine merchantmen of his own,
his children were never tired of getting him
to tell them, over and over again, the story
of how he had once been left alone upon the
sea.

Sometimes homely comparison conveys an

HARP, now lads! The old craft go
down in another ten minutes, and If
we don't look alive we'll all go down
along with her!"
These startling words were spoken to the
crew of a trading schooner, bound from Can
ada to England; and one could see, by the
excited faces and vigorous exertions of the
snen, that they, too, felt that there was no
time to lose.
And indeed there was not, for the sinking
vessel was already low in the water and set
ting deeper every moment.
Undermined as they were (for they had
left port with anything but full crew., they
had been unable to make head against the
storm that had struck them in mid-ocean two
days before carrying away their foretopmost

one of the men.
The captain had been badly hurt by fall

blown over, they found the vessel leaking bad

at once.
For time they worked away manfully,
hoping to master the leak yet; but, either it
was more serious than they thought or there
was another leak, of which they knew moth
ing, for all of sudden they found the water
gaining upon them SO fast that the only thing
to be done was to abandon the ship as soon
as possible, which was what they were now
preparing to do.
Happily the. sea was very quiet again by,
this time, and the boat, in which keg Of
water and two or three small casks of beef
and biscuit had been slowed, was safely low
