Thoph and his companions set up
storm of protest. 1t was foolish, 1t
was crazy, the man would die anyhow,
and so on. They begged the minister
to come with them. But he was firm.

ships, not far from the open door of

Premature Burial.

NJ. Thoinot, professor Of forensic
medicine to the Paris Academic de
Medicine, has been lecturing upon
premature burial, an accident the fear
of which is, perhaps, not so prevalent
as 1t was in the days of Edgar Poe.
He gave an interesting description OF
the many inventions devised for the
avoidance of this, including the inser-
ton OF breathing tube in the mouth
of the corpse, which is brought
through the lid of the coffin and pro-
jected from the grave. But he declared
that no precaution was so satisfactory
as that of delaying the burial until
the signs of putrefaction are apparent.
The provisions of the code Napoleon,
which ordain that no burial shall take
place until twenty-four hours after
death and inspection by, the medical
authority OF the district. are, he said,
entirely adequate on this point, and
| if they are carried out to the full, no
one need have any fear of being bur

Jose.
Hey, Mr. Ellery!"
1t was Captain Zeb Mayo who was
calling. The captain sat in his antique
chaise, drawn by the antique white
horse, and was hailing the parsonage
through speaking trumpet formed by
holding both his big hands before his
mouth.
The minister and Mrs Coffin, the
former with napkin in his hand, had
emerged from the side door of the par
sonage and now came hurrying down
to the gate
Land of Goshen!" exclaimed the
captain, you don't mean to tell me
you amt done breakfast yet, and it
after seven o'clock. Why, Mr. Ellery,
! tell you; Em'lous Sparrow, the fish
peddler stepped up to our house a few
minutes ago. He's just come down
from the shanties over on the shore
by the light-where the wreck was,

A moment later the minister, having
donned his hat and coat, ran down the
walk and climbed into the chaise be-
side Captain Zeb. The white horse,
stimulated into crealy trot by repeat
ed slappings of the reins and roars

moved along the sandy lane.
They found a group on the beach.
A few fishermen, one or two lobster
men and wreckers, and the lightkeep-
er were gathered on the knoll by the
lighthouse. They had a spyglass, and
a good-sized dory was ready for
launching
Where is she, Noah?' asked Cap
tain Zeb Of the lightkeeper,
She's a brigantine, zeb,' observed
the keeper, handing up the spyglass.
"And fiyin' the British colors. Look S

He ran to the rail, yelling orders to
Bill and Thoph, who were frantically
busy with the dory. Elery began to
climb the ladder. His head emerged
into the clean, sweet air blowing
across the deck. He drew breath to
the very bottom of his lungs.
Then from behind and below him
came the voice again.

The minister stood still, his feet on
the ladder The three men by the rail
were working like mad, their faces
livid under the sunburn and their
hands trembling. They pushed each
other about and swore.
Thoph and Bill sprang over the rail
into the boat. Burgess turned and
