touched my cheek, and so we rested
for a long time, scarcely exchanging
a word between us.
1t was later that same day, Just at
the edge Of twilight, when Kelly
called, "A sail" pointing eagerly out
over the port quarter. Then, some
upon knees, some standing. we all
saw 1t, a misty, white reflection, show
ing vague against the d~arkening hori-
zon. l know not what 1t really was
"a CLEAN of canvas, a speck Of cloud,
or the pinnacle of an iceberg-but as
we swept toward 1t, the night
dropped down over the waters blotting
the last faint vestige from view. Yet we
hung ON desperately, the man staring
out into the black void, grumbling and
cursing, until the long night wore
away with no reward.

forget the sight of that narrow boat,
tossing about on, the crests of great
seas, or plunging down into the black
hollows; the green water pouring in
cataracts over the gunwale; the con-
slant bailing; the wet, soggy blankets;
the moaning Of wind through the Icy
cordage; the Tapping of the sail; the
gray masses of water curling over us
in continuous threatening; the awful
expanse of ocean revealed by day
light; the black loneliness through
which we swept at night. We ceased
| to talk, to think, even, growing more
and more sullen, moody, dull-eyed,
cramped of limb and benumbed OF

smother, forever b%eholding the mirages

in that vast desert of ocean. The IN |,
temptation of 1t maddened us one mo-
ment into frenzy, and depressed us the
next into profound melancholy. We
could not shake it of; awake or In
dreams 1t held US to slavery. Every
where, everywhere the same eternal
swell Of the seas, the same eternity
OF clouded sky, the same dull, dead
monotony OF scene and motion, hour
after hour, day after night. 1t drove
us mad, crushing down upon the brain
as though 1t was q real weight, merci-
less, agonizing. The air remained
frosty, the southwest wind chilling,
the spray which slapped into our faces
icy cold. Our fingers stiffened with
cold, our bodies shook from the chill;
only beneath the warmth of the
blankets could we find comparative
comfort. Hour after hour the men
lay, curled up and motionless, only
crawling forth reluctantly to take
their turn on watch. Our greatest
effort was to keep the straining cord
age free from ice, and to prevent it's
formation along the gunwale or at the
bows, over which spray dashed In
constant shower.
Good God, how those hours dragged,
with the same heartless scene with
out, the same hopeless faces within!

helm, with n man always awake
forward to manage the RAINING gear,
and only once during those first six
days were we compelled to lower
our sail or take a reef in the jib.
Then a fierce squall came tearing
down upon us from out the northwest,
a swift, sharp blow, heralded by a
binding snow furry which kicked up
an ugly sea, flashing us with heavier
singing spray, and coating every
thing with ice. For seven hours we
fought in a binding smother, every
man awake, crouching beneath blank
the thwarts, and De Nova and / at the

Back Of Il.


Il was called in by close listed old
merchant the other day." Boston
lawyer remarked, smiling. "He wanted,
me to draw his will, and this pro-
ceeded to do. following his verbal in
struction. Presently he said.:.
ITO each and every clerk who has
been in my employ continuously for
ten years give ten thousand dollars
"This seemed like q considerable
sum to me and ventured a slight pro-
test, as he had number Of daughters
and his entire fortune was not large.
"oh, that's all right he said. with
"a crooked little smile. You know peo-
pile have always said that was close
and hard, and I want them to think
well of me when I am gone
Il was little touched, and said
something. but he waved It aside and
we continued with the draft. When 1t
was finished and as I was about to
leave the Office. the old fellow smiled
again his crooked little smile.
"About those ten thousand dollar
legacies,' he said, there isn't a clerk
in my place who has been with me

MUST BE LAVISH WITH TIPS
According to This, Extraordinary Ora
tuItIes Are Expected by New
York Walters.

We have the word Of q, New York
magistrate that his salary Of $1,000
year is scarcely big enough to enable
him to pay the expected tips at the
New York restaurants. The magis-,
trate in question was called upon to
settle the matrimonial disputes OF
waiter and his wife. Incidentally he
asked what pay the waiter received
and he was told S29 a month. "And
how much in tips7" inquired the magis'
trate. The waiter hesitated and final
ly confessed to SIS or $40 a month.
"You can't expect me to believe that"
said the court, "for dine at sherrys
often and I know that II q person
gives the waiter tip of less than one
dollar he is scowled at. One can't even
look at the head waiter without 1t cost
ing him FIVE dollars. My salary Of
$1,000 a year is scarcely big enough to
cover the expense Of tips"

CURIOUS EFFECTS OF SCENTS
Penetrating odors Have Been Known
to Induce Unconsclousness'a and
Even Death.

There Is no evidence to support the
theory that the smell of narcissus may
cause influenza. But many strange
cases are on record regarding the ef-
fects of the smell of flowers.
"a foreign officer" said medical
man, lone night went to sleep with
number of punches OF oleander-an
evergreen shrub with red and white
fowers-in his bedroom. In the
morning he was found dead. The pun
gent smell of the oleander had
asphyxiated him.
LESS serious is the case Of doc
tor who, after sitting for some time IN
room where there were several
bowls of jasmine, became exceedingly
giddy. He removed the flowers.
whereupon he was himself again at
once.
"A number Of oranges in room has
been known to make a man uncon-
scious. l know also of the case Of q
man who. going to sleep in a store
room full Of apricots, was discovered
next day in an unconscious condition.

Dirt and Purity.

f, The love Of dirt is among the earliest
OF passions, as 1t is the latest. Mud
pies crafty one Of our first and best
Instincts. So long as we are dirty,
we are pure. Fondness for the ground
comes back to a man after he has run
the round Of pleasure and business.
eaten dirt and sown wild oats, drifted
about the world. and taken the wind
Of all its moods. The love of digging
in the ground (or Of looking on while
he pays another to dig) is as sure to
come back to him as he is sure, at
last, to go under the ground and stay
there. To own q bit of ground, to
scratch 1t with a hoe, to plant seeds,
and watch their renewal Of life-this
is the commonest delight Of the race,
the most satisfactory thing man can
do.-Charles Dudley Warner.

The Rule Of tho Road.

There appears to be no definite rec
ord explaining the prevailing custom
Of turning our vehicles to the right
in this country. One authority says
that 1t grew out Of the fact that in our
early colonial days, before the arrival
Of rigs for pleasure driving, me
drivers Of heavy vehicles used In
transportation fell into the way of
turning to the right.
The English custom Of turning to
the left Is an ancient one. It obtains
in practically all Of the British prov
.inces. A grizzled driver in Bermuda.
asked once why all drivers turned to
the left, explained that 1t was done SO
they could see just how much room
