"How's that?"
A Ghost Under the Sea,

The story is told Of diver who saw
two ghosts "full fathom five" under
the surface. He had gone down to the
wreck Of a large steamer and was
crossing the main saloon when two
gray shapes Of enormous size came
shambling toward him. He did not
wait to make notes for the Psychical
society, but gave the danger signal and
was at once pulled up. Told in the
cheerful light of day, it seemed rather
a lame story, and another diver went
down to see what he could make Of it.
Toward him also came the shambling
gray shapes. He stood irresolute for a
moment and then, going boldly for,
ward, struck his hatchet through-a
mirror! The ghosts were only a dim
reflection of his own legs, much en-.
larged, Of course, as everything is that

eye Of his helmet.

In a Nitroqlycerin "HiII,"

In the danger area" the severest
discipline is maintained. All entrances

whatever kind, that happens. Two

town one night when their buggy ran
into ditch, overturned, and they were
both stunned. When a rescuer came
along and revived them the first thing

for her work for charity, recently ac-
cepted an invitation to speak at an
anti-tuberculosis meeting. On the plat

bishop and rabbi, and the tone Of
the meeting seemed to be rendered ex-

In order to tighten the solemnity, she
said, turning to the rabbi, "Do you
