have my girls do nothing which shall

it pay to let go of every ideal to be-

harmful excitement? I do not con-
denim any pleasure which takes a girl
out In the sunlight and into the COM

I might say, Dear things, there is

until he saw that Bait himself bore
similar signs of strife. The big mans
lips were cut, while back of one ear a
knot had sprung up over night like
fungus.
They fell to work quickly. stripping
themselves to their undershirts; they
manned the hoists, seized trucks and
bale-hooks, and began their tasks with
a thoroughly n%on-union energy. Some
of them were still so drunk that they
staggered, their awkwardness affording
huge sport to their companions, yet
even in their intoxication they were
surprisingly capable. There was a
great deal of laughter and disorder on
every hand, and all made frequent
trips to the water-taps, returning adrip
to the waist, their hair and boards be-
jewelled with drops. Boyd saw one. a
well-dressed fellow in a checked suit,
remove his clothes and hang them care
fully upon a nail, then painfully unlace
his patent leather shoes, after which.
regardless of the litter under foot and
the splinters in the floor, he tramped
about in bare feet and red underwear.
Without exception, they seemed pos
sessed by the spirit of boys at play.
Having seen them we'll under way and
the winches working, George sought out
Boyd and proudly inquired:
What do you think of them. eh?"
They are splendid, but where are
the others?"
well, there are two or three that
won't be able to get around at all"
He m~editatively stroked the knuckles
of his right hand, which were badly
bruised. But the balance win be here
tomorrow. These are just the mildest-
hammered ones-the family men, you
might say. The others will show up
gradual. You see. If there had been any
lighting going on here, I'd have got
most of them right off the bat, but
there wasn't any inducement to offer,
except hard work, so they wasn't quite
so anxious to commence
"Humph, There ought to be enough
excitement before long to satisfy any
one said Boyd, with a trace of worry
in his voice.
AS sure as you're a foot high" ex-
claimed George, hopefully. IT'S the
only way we'll get that ship loaded on
time. All we need is a riot or two,
A man passed them trundling a heavy
truck. but seeing big George. he
paused. wiped the sweat from his face,
then grinned and winked f~raternally.
"Hey, If this work is too heavy for
you. why don't you quit?' growled
Bait, but strangely enough the fellow
took no offense. Instead, he closed his
swollen eye for a second time, then spat
upon his hands, and as he staggered
with his burden, grunted pleasantly:
II pretty near-got you, George. If
you hadn't "a ducked, we'd "a been at
it yet, eh?"
Bait smiled in turn, then ~gingerly
felt Of the knob behind his ear.
Ibid you have a fight with him? '
queried Emerson.
Not exactly a fight. but he put this
nubbin on my conch.' answered the
fisherman. He's a tough proposition,

of a certain wonderful man who
preached, ITO be happy is, after all,
an incident. To be good and to DC
good. to know God and to serve him
are the important things"
1t seem to me that many people are
taking away from the working girl the
very thing that she ought to have to
retain her ~self-respect, a pride in up
rightness and In Righteousness for Its
own sake. There is no fun that can
make up for a loss Of ones sense of
integrity. The women who throughout
their lives hold up their heads and face
the world are not the ones who IN girl
hood sacrificed their ideals, says the
writer in the Philadelphia Press.

tempted to seek the lower things would

George hesitated. Il don't know If
I'd better go or not. They've all got
hang-overs, and they're liable to bust
out any minute if you don't watch
them. They amt vicious, understand;
they just like to frolic around.

After a contemplative glance at his
companions well-knit figure Bait gave
in, with the final caution: Don't let
them get the upperhand or there won't
be no living with them
After his departure Boyd was not
long in learning the cause Of his hesi-
fancy. for no sooner did the men rea-
lie the change in authority over them
than they undertook to feel out the
mettle Of their new foreman. Directly
one of them approached him with the
demand:

son. Help yourself"

He turned back to his task. but a
moment later BOYD saw him making
for the shore end of the dock, and with
a few strides placed himself in his
path.
Where are you going?"
After a drink, of course

The man eyed him for an instant,
then answered: NO! The jobs all

labors and gathered around, w%hereupon
their companion addressed them.

that they quickly gave him room.

There was a moments hesitation, and
then, with the absurd vagary of a

Listen" said he, with a chuckle.

hundred fishermen. Half of them are

Can you induce them to work."

dozen or two on hand In the morning"

Boyd did not see him again b a day,
nor at the hotel during the evening,
but on h following morning, true to
his word, the big fellow walked into
the warehouse. followed by a score or
more of fishermen. At first sight there
was nothing imposing about these men;
they were rough-garbed and unkempt
in the main; but upon closer observa-
ion Boyd noticed that they were thick
chested and broad-shouldered, and
walked with the swinging gait that
comes from heaving decks.
While tho majority of them were

markedly foreign in appearance, being
rather Of that composite caste that
peoples the outer reaches of the far
West, thye were all deeply Drowned by
IL and weather, and spoke the univer-
sal idiom of the sea. There were men
here from Finland and Florida, Portu-
gal and Maine, fused into n monde
script type by the melting pot of the
frontier. Some wore the northern
mackinaw, in spite of the balmy April
morning, others we're dressed like ranch
hands on circus day. and a few with
ornateness of Butte miners on
parade.
Certain ones displayed fresh contu-
sions on cheek and Jaw, or peered forth
from lately blackened eyes, and these.
Boyd noticed, invariably fawned upon
Big George or treated him with ele-
phantine piayfulness, winking swollen
lids at him in a mysterious under
standing which puzzled the young man.

Cr,stnlIIzed ornnge Peel.

Save the orange skins from the table
and throw them into a large crock filed
with salt and water. about a cup of
salt to a gallon. When it is full wash
them in two or three waters, scraping
out the white inside. Simmer gently,
changing the water from time to time,
till all trace of the salt disappears.
Drain, and with the scissors or a sharp
knife cut into very narrow strips and
weigh. For each pound allow a pound
of sugar and a half-cupful of water.
Boil the sugar and water a moment,
add the orange peel, and simmer gently
about thirty minutes, or until tender.
Drain, roll each piece in ~granulated
sugar, and put on a platter covered
with oiled paper to dry in the sun, or
on buttered tins in a slow oven.
