An isolated rock. wreck or any OBJ
struction that has channel on either
side of it is shown by IA buoy with red
and black horizontal stripes.
Buoys showing white and black per-
pendicular stripes and lying in mid
channel indicate that they must be
passed close to avoid danger.
AS an indication that there is turn
ing point In the channel we see buoys
surmounted by trtangles. cages. etc.
There are buoys which are also fog
signals. such as the bell buoy and the
whistling buoy. The latter Is used OF
the coast to show dangerous outlying
shoals or other Instructions. 1t ia sur

TOT.
For obvious reasons similar buOys in
all districts mean the same thing. In
other words. buoy of u particular dis
tinguishing color off the coast Of Maine
carries the same significance that a
buoy Of that same color has off the
coast Of Florida. So the mariner who
enters the New England port Is guided
and directed In precisely the same way
as the mariner who enters a southern
port. and the same is true Of all other
parts of the country.
The government publishes coast
charts showing the coIors and posi-
tons of the buoys. The lighthouse
board publishes In addition, a yearly
list. distributed gratis for the benefit
Of navigation. in which each one of the
thousands of buoys is located and
described.
The passenger standing at the rail of
the liner coming in from sea will prob
ably first notice "mammOth buoy"
These buOyS are used only in special
caseS-aS, for example. to mark the ap
proaches to channels over bars or
shoals that lie some distance from the
coast.
Red and black buoys designate the
channel They lie on either side. The
red buoys. which have even numbers
must be left on the starboard or right
hand in passing in from sea The black
buoys. always with odd numbers. must
be left on the port hand.
When there are two or more chan
nelS these are distinguished by differ
ence either in the size or in the shape

purse Of the people and without which
not u wheel IN the Legislative. the ex'

1t IL because of this parliament that
there Is no ways and mems committee
In the senate and that when any treaty
or commercial arrangement or any
thing involving the payment of money
Is introduced. any appointment or legis

settles the matter according to the
will Of the people through their repre-
senta tives. for 1t can defeat any meas
ure or any person by merely dtclin

to pay for that measure or person.

The story ot A city youth who can not earn his liY- ing when thrown on his own resources, and who tx sent into tse small country town to win the local heifess through hts contrasting city airs, education and appearance. from the country awaius who have been left in town, is one of logical sequence and plausible theory.

But in the working out of the scheme he | develops a latent business ability that l ineites an interest not only In his fe- habilitatlons Of the old, worn out drug store, which he makes "the finest in the state, but also In his life and rural surroundings. He finds love, the druggists daughter that makes him desplse the scheme he had been will ing to go into when he was "oown. and out and his salvation is worked out by that love and "the rules by which he had lived.
