The whales, not understanding this
strange intrusion, rose more often and
more recklessly. Their great brown
forms looked like huge derelicts

There was something awful and

in his fury should happen to rise un-

rose above us. A quick pointing of

shot forward dragging long coil of

by an explosion from a time fuse Of
charge in the harpoon.

Hunt Whales.

Chicago Daily News: The sudden
throbbing Of the engines and the rat
tie Of the chains startled me out OF
a sound sleep. From somewhere on
deck came the short jerky strains OF
sailors chantey. The Corean crew
were at work weighing anchor. The
night had been spent on the small
Norwegian whaler Main, hunting out
from Urusan station in Corea.
On deck everything was strange.
We were cutting through cold gray
sea at a speed which set the sturdy
little whaler first to one side and then
to the other. Off the left lay the
long, rugged Corean coast, still a dark
ridge against the somber sky. Over
the sea hung a vapor which rested
heavily on the tossing waters.
Soon after breakfast the first Of the
whales were seen. Still steaming
northward, shout came from the
Corean lookout high above in the
crows nest.
"They blow! Far away on the star
board quarter"
The only response was an answer
ing bell in the engine room signaling
to slow down. At the same instant
the vessel changed her course and al
but drifted through the waves. The

Afternoon Tea Mistakes

general custom in our country and

we have not the old world grace IN

ut is a mistake to make after
noon tea an elaborate affair. Fancy

tea hour destroys the appetite for
dinner and send people from the lit

have not dealt wisely by their di-
gestion.
"A simple menu for tea obviates all
uncomfortable feelings Of this kind
Imperial Valley press., 1913-09-16

One is simply refreshed by it for the
hours lying between it and dinner
, "In the finest houses in England
the usual menu consists only Of the
tea, very thin slices Of bread and
butter, a pot Of some kind Of jam,
and some kind Of rather plain cake,
"Tea is served on a little table
or at the end Of the drawing room
or dining room table. a cosey covers
the teapot. The oldfashioned cosey
is not oId-fashioned in the old world
style there.
"When the tea is served on little
table, a little wicker or wooden stand
holding three shelves is usually plac-
ed bv the table. On the shelves, just
big enough to hold plate, are the
bread and cake.
GAS English servants understand
how to make tea as well as their
mistresses and do not slight scalding

noise of the propeller would frighten
them; it was necessary to steal up
cautiously Again there was shout
from the crows nest, and this TINA
the tail spray Of four whales blowing
almost simultaneously was clearly
visible from the deck. The spouting
was followed by the appearance Of
huge tail, which rose ten or twenty
feet from the water, curved gracefully
over and sank, leaving US but a
smooth surface in a once choppy sea,
to mark its rise.
The captain left the bridge and
came down to take his place at the
harpoon line at the bow of the ship.
The piece was unlocked, so that the
big gun with its murderous harpoon
and long rope could be pointed in any
direction and brought into instant
play A speaking tube was placed
in readiness that orders might be Civ
en- direct to the engine room.
| The chase was fairly started now,
and for three hours the excitement
was kept up. Now the whales would
be almost within range Of the gun,
their huge brown hulks all but out
Of the water; then, blowing as though
to laugh at our chase, they would
disappear BY this time we were far
from the shore; the mammoth sweils

Of the deep set we took at all angles
as we changed our course in pursuit
Of those brown leviathans Of the
Corean seas. Now we were swept
from stem to stern, then from stern
to bow; again the little vessel would
go over on her beam ends. But for
the friendly stanchion this landsman
would have found himself in a sad
predicament. One could have nothing
but admiration for the captain, who
could keep his feet and manage the
gun at the same time with nothing to
protect him from the full wash Of the
seas.
The captain shouted down the
speaking tube and slight increase
of speed resulted. The whales would
rise and blow a hundred yards off.
Another order and the ship slowed
down and the stalking process con
tinued. So it went on for three hours.
Almost within range at times and
then steaming slowly waiting for the
next rise, but always the whales cum
ming was too much for mans.
"Now, I'll make them crazy and
think we'll get one," said the captain.
Then, turning to the tube, gave the
order, Full speed ahead"
Again the little boat tossed and
trembled in the wave as she shot

the last time, turned over and ne was

1t was a proud moment for US
landsmen as we entered the narrows

shared in the glory ourselves.
