the owner and to be used In trade
and speculation among the East In
dies, he took with him. Then the
difficult and dangerous passage
through the opening in the reef was
begun.
Only the captains boat reached the
shore. The mates was caught by a
huge breaker, dashed against the reef
and sunk. Captain Nat, his second
mate and five of his men were all that
was left of the Sea Mist's company.
And on that island they remained for
nearly two weeks. Provisions they
had brought ashore with them. Wa
ter they found by digging. Nat hid
the gold at night, burying it on the
beach below high-water mark.
Then, having made sure Of his To-
cation by consulting the chart, he de-
termined TO attempt voyage to the
second island, where he knew the
English colony to be. Provisions were
getting short, and to remain longer
where they were was to risk starva-
ton and all it's horrors. So, In the
longboat, which was provided with a
sail, they started Charts and papers
and the gold the skipper took with
them. None of the crew knew Of the
existence of the money; 1t was Sc
cret which the captain kept to him.
self.
A hundred miles they sailed in the
longboat and, at last, the second ISL
and was sighted. They landed and
found, to their CONSERVATION and sur
prise, that it, too, was uninhabited
The former residents had grown tired
of their isolation and trading yes
sci having touched there, had seized
the opportunity to depart for Tahiti.
Their houses were empty, their cat
tie, sheep, goats, and fowl roatned
wild in the woods, and the fruit was
rotting on the trees. In it's way the
little island was an Eveless Eden,
flowing with milk and honey; but to
Captain Nat, conscientious skipper
with responsibilities to his owners, 1t
was a prison from which he deter
mined to escape. Then, as If to make
escape impossible, sudden gale came
up and the longboat was smashed by
the surf.
81 guess that settles IT, ruefully
observed the second mate, another
Cape Colder from Hyannis. "Callate
we'll stay here for spell now, hey,
Cap'n."
For a spell, yes" replied Nat.
Well stay here until we get another
craft to set sail in, and no longer"
Another craft? Another one?

Build her." said Captain Nat cheer
fully. Then, pointing to the row of
empty houses and the little deserted
church, he added, There's timber and
nails-yes, and cloth, such as it's. If
can't build a boat out of them I'll
agree to eat the whole settlement"
He did not have to eat it, for the
boat was built. 1t took them six
months to build her, and she was a
curious-looking vessel when done, but,
as the skipper said, "She may not be
a clipper, but she'll sail anywhere, If
you give her time enough" He had
been the guiding spirit of the whole
enterprise, planning it, laying the keel,
burning buildings to obtain nails and
iron, hewing trees for the largest
beams, showing them how to spin

Captain Elkanah Daniels and his
friend were feeling better and they
were busy. Trumet had a new hero
now. On Wednesday the Boston papers
printed excerpts from Captain Ham

Raker suffocated m pouuh.

A baker employed in an East end
bakery in New York city met with a
strange death some days ago, when he
fell into huge steel cup used for mix
ing dough. The cup is stationary, but
number of steel paddles operated by
electricity revolve about it's interior,
stirring the dough. A piston operating
these paddles extends from the roof.
The man mounted to the top Of the
cup with pail of flour to throw in as
mixer. He grasped the moving
piston and his hands slipped, throwing
him headfirst into the dough and the
revolving paddles. The foreman heard
him scream, and shut off the power
Immediately, but life was extinct.

Tack Hammer for SURGEON.

Scientific hammering of the spinal
column, technically known as spondy-
lotherpy, is one of the latest treat
ments to be adopted by members of
the Philadelphia medical profession.
1t consists of tapping certain por-
lions of the spine for patients suffer
ing with heart, lung, stomach and
liver trouble.
The "tack-hammer treatment" was
discovered by DR.. Albert Abrams, a
nerve specialist of San Francisco
Philadelphia Dispatch to the New
York American.

Flowers in a Bedroom.

Opinions differ as to the feasibility
of having plants in a bedroom. How
ever, almost all authorities agree that
plants and trees, through their leaves
absorb obnoxious gases and give of
oxygen, and that plants require a gas
called carbonic-acid to promote a
rank, luxuriant growth The gas thds
breathed by the plants is poisonous to
air-breathing animals, including man,
and as it is also given out in the
breathing of animals it is poisonous to
be re-breathed; but the plants thrive
on it. This being the case the deci
sion would be in favor Of having the
plants in the room to absorb the pois'
ous-exhalations

Breathing Through the Ears.

"The way to avoid tuberculosis and
lung disease is by breathing through
the ears" says Dr. John e. Davis, of
Virginia university. Man breathed
through his ears before he learned to
use his nose. In early days when man
was fish he had gills and inhaled
and exhaled through them. Part Of
these breathing organs still remain,
and If cultivated can be put to good
use"
He says that if child is taught to
breathe through his ears after proper
practice he will be able to open or
shut his ears just as a fish works his
gills.
We wonder what our scientists and
medical men will have to say to this

[ see in the morning paper that Colonel
OIeary said he was going to order up five
hundred more troops from Savannah. How
long are they going to stay down there? Are
they going to roost down there the balance Of
the year? They are running up pretty
expense account against you. You gave the
Governor aouthority to borrow S500,00000
for the Treasury-you voted on that the other
day. If this thing keeps on you will have to
authorize him to borrow twice that amount
to pay for the bull-headedness of one North
ern corporation.
The corporation was wrong and the men
were right. The Mediation Board so
decided. How long is Governor Brown going
to give troops, at our expense, to that
bull-hcaded corporation? Today I say that

That statement ought to put our people
to thinking.
Did Christ command his disciples to 90
into all the world and educate every living
creature?
Did he command us to furnish colleges
for heather children, when we are too poor
to send our own to college?
Did he command us to gather up the widow
and the orphan of the Chinaman, and to
support them in comfortable Homes?
Did he command us to train the heather
in farming blacksmithing, carpentering and
type-setting?
Did he command us to 90 into all the
world and establish asylums for the blind
and deaf colonies for lepers and hospitals
for the poor and sick?
That IS mhat the Boards are d0inqi
These high-salaried Boards are saddling
you with the expense of educating the
heather children nursing the heather SICK
giving medicines and medical attention to the
heather poor, caring for the helpless tots in
kindergartens, teaching their youth in ele-
mentary schools, and graduating their young
men and women from universities and col
leges!
How on earth can you bear all this bur
den, and at the same time, do your duty by
your own people?
The Foreign Missionaries are maintaining,
at your expense, in foreign countries:
81 Universities and Colleges;
487 Theological and Normal Schools and
Training Glasses;
1884 Boarding and High Schools;
284 Industrial Schools;
28,901 Elementary Schools;
113 KindergartenS;
$50 Hospitals;

81 Homes for lepers' untainted children.
IS Asylums for the blind and for deaf
mutes;
% Rescue homes;
103 Opium refugees;

% Industrial homes.
You contribute toward the secular educa-
ton of 1,165,212 foreign children in your
missionary elementary schools!
You he p 1891 foreign youths and maidens
to 90 through college.
You give Normal school training and theo-
logical teaching to 12,543 sons of the for

You aid 1852 students in your foreign
boarding and high-schools
you give industrial training to 1855 of
the heathen-which means that you paid to
have them taught to farm, and how to become
backsmlths, carpenters, etc.
In your goodness of heart you care for
4703 foreign children in the missionary
kIndergartens.
You gave medicines and medical service,
scientific surgery and nursing, last year, to
4,272,468 patients-the much greater part of
it free of charge.
