Every person who has received gym

that an exercise which calls for pain

is often performed almost without any
conscious effort at all after a Ger.

for this is made plain in an article by
Professor du Bots Raymond in Die

the essential functions of gymnasium
work is not SO much to build up mus

to work in proper unison and co-or-

with fiery liquid. Then he felt the

In Jim's case the question did not
imply the confused cropping back to
sense that it usually indicates, but
rather an actual desire to know
whether or not he was on board the
Jeanne dare. Plainly his wits had
not been badly shattered by his ex-

and prepared in his mind for striking
a bargain with one of the sailors for
clothes He could make out their
lingo soon, he guessed, and then he
would get a suit OF clothes and fare
on deck. Suddenly he grasped his
waist, struck with an unpleasant
thought; his money-belt was gone! He
was wearing sailors blue flannel
shirt and nothing else. He turned over
on his hard bunk, thinking that he

after accommodating on deck. Chate-
lard was gone. The ships cook was
rummaging In sailors kit that he
had drawn from a locker. Jim mem

seamen had no doubt exaggerated the
calamity, but without question there
was serious trouble. Were the pumps
working? How far were they from
shore? If hopelessly distant from
shore. were they in the course of
passing steamers? Would any one
look after Miss Redmonds safety?
Monsieur Chatelard had said that she
was not on board. but James did not
believe 1t.
While these thoughts flew through
his mind, James had been absently
watching while the cook turned his
treasures out upon his bunk, and
paved them over with trembling
hands. There were innumerable littla
things besides a stiff white shirt.
