Landsman and Sailor

To the landsman the sea must al
ways possess dangers that to the sailor
appear only as casual phenomena upon
which to exercise his skill. The
prayer book has a special petition for
the safety of those who go down to
the sea in ships, and every one who
ventures to leave the shore goes forth
with consciousness of awe at his
own daring. Yet in the intricate COM
pleXity of modern civilization safety
on land and safety at sea have walked
by no means with equal step. Every
morning brings us some story OF death
or accident on land, while the great
passenger ships come and go in mo-
notonous regularity, bringing no re-
ports more stirring than those of high
seas that have kept them from making
new records. With the present mad
ness for speed and it attendant reck-
lessness our streets demand constant
alertness if one would cross them with
safety. Speed at sea has come through
larger and more stoutly constructed
ships. So the familiar old story of
the sailorman al sea in a storm, who
serene In his consciousness of ample
sea room, piously calculated: God
help the poor folks ashore tonight
is not wholly fantastic.-L Frank

Tails That Tell Tales

Tailless animals seem greatly to be
pitied See to what use the lucky ones
put their tails! Horses, cows and other
creatures use their tails as hy happers.
Cats, squirrels and many more twist
them round their necks for comforters.
The rat has raised the use OF the tail
to a fine art. for by it's means it guides
the blind, and steals jelly. oil and cream
out of jars and bottles.
Look at that old monkey giving her
baby ride on her tail in the most
approved ride cock horse to Banbury
Cross" fashion of grown up human
beings. The macaco plays as merrily
with it's tail as kitten does, and the
marmoset, while It sleeps, uses its tail
as a sort of blanket.
The ateles monkey and jaguar fish
with their tails and the raccoon catches
crabs with it's tail, quite unlike an oars
man. Every one knows how the mon
keys journey through painless forests
by swinging from tree to tree, while
the fishes steer their way through the
vastly deep by their tail fins.
The ant eater puts up its big bushy
tail for an umbrella. The vanity OF
the peacock is fed by the beauty of it's
tail.-Cassell's Little Folks.

he beheld looking back at him a hag-
gard beast which he didn't in the least
know, a poor, thin creature, with sunk
en- sides and scraggy scoat and gaunt
features. Mercy upon u.s." thought
Silver Fox. like the old woman in the
nursery rhyme "can this indeed be IL"
For a moment he would not believe
that it was his own reflection that lie
saw Then he suddenly remembered
how hungry he had been for a long
time, and he turned sadly away from
the pond. Yes he admitted, that
haggard beast is no other than beauti-
full Silver Fox. who has lost his beauty
because he doesn't get enough to eat.
What good is it to be a Silver Fox.
. fter all, if one is thin and haggard
and scraggy? The most beautiful tail
in the world couldn't save the reputa-
tion for beauty of an animal that is
thin and haggard. I'm getting to be
perfect scarecrow, and all because |
can't get as much to eat as | really
need"
Silver Fox was desperate. He hadn't
minded being almost always uncomfort-
ably hungry half so much as he minded
losing his beauty He walked away from
the pond quite slowly, his tail droop-
ing forlornly and the very hang of his
ears expressing deepest detection. In
this manner he had gone about third
OF the way pack 10 his ueil WlleA SUI
denly temptation assailed him. 1t
wouldn't have been temptation at any
other time, because Silver Fox. like
most of his kind was exceedingly can
ny, and hunger alone would hardly have
driven him to brave the sure capture
and possible death which awaited his
ensnarement in a trap. He scented the
trap long before he came to 1t and he
was pretty sure that it was a trap all
a
tation, instead of running away from
it, he tossed up his head and made
straight for it. II don't care" said
Silver Fox, I've got to get good meal
today or I'll be the worst scarecrow in
the countryside. I'm going to take the
risk" and he dashed madly away to-
ward the point at which he knew the
trap was set.
Sure enough. he found it later on
concealed among the 'underbrush, not so
cunningly but that Silver Fox laughed
heartily to think that any human be-
ing should have thought he could de-
ceive the forest creatures by such a
contrivance. 1t was not at all a clever

:
sort of trap of the kind which catches
an animal by the foot and crippleS
him beyond recovery at the first blow.
1t was a less dreadful structure than
this and a much simpler one, which
was meant to capture Mr.. Fox without
damaging him in any way, so that he
might be carried away and be kept in
captivity.
Silver Fox examined the trap eau
tiously. while all the time his nostrils
were quivering a delighted response to
the strong odor of the meat which was
the traps bait. He would have fled
from the contrivance even then if it
had been the mutilating sort of trap,
for 1t certainly wouldn't help his
beauty to lose one OF his front paws.
He saw, however that he would be
able to get at the bait without having
his foot caught, and much as he loved
his freedom he loved his beauty better.
Silver Fox sighed and with that he
bade goodby to his forest home and
entered the snug little box. the purpose
of which he understood so well. He
gave a pull at the delicious bit of meat
which hung across the entrance. the
trap closed upon him and Silver Fox
was a captive.
The meat was very good and he
made a delicious meal in spite OF his
cramped position and the uncertainty
of the fate that awaited him. AS he
ate he could feel his starved body
filling out and he was so sure that his
looks. would be Immediately improved
by the generous fare that he forgot to
worry about what was to become OF
him and fell comfortably to sleep after
he had finished his dinner.
When he awoke the human beings
who had set the trap were engaged in
looking him over, and Silver FOX
swelled with pride when he saw that
they were much pleased with the kind
of fox that he was. Fer a moment he
forgot the vision of the pond and
remembered his former spiendor, for it
was evident that the men admired him.
after ALL he thought as he was
borne along by his captors, 1T is some
thing to be a silver fox, even ii one
isn't as handsome as one once was. 1t
is probable, from the fuss they make
over me. that these poor creatures
never knew that there was such
beautiful creature in the world. may
not compare with my former self. but
still even as I am there is no one so
beautiful as l."
