to the ship. quickly following them.
When she got to the cabin it was
gaily decked out with the contents of
the packages she had sent. The cap
tain, children and steward had receiv-
ed the bundles and not realizing for
what they were intended had planned
a pleasant surprise for Mrs. Quick
when she should arrive. These eli
makes in play are funny, but in real
life 1t is quite q disappointment to
have ones plans frustrated so. No
doubt when they get off Cape Horn
there will be other presents besides
the dolls, etc, which decorated the
Edward Sewalps cabin, for If in no
other way, special preparations are
made for the Christmas dinner for
ward as we'll as aft The duff that
goes forward always having an extra
lot of ''plums" (raisins) in it and other
luxuries are added to the menu and
the whole ship feels the happy spirit
of the occasion unless, as often hap
pens, "old borus" is in an angry mood
and shakes things up. then the princi-
pie celebration is a keen thankfulness
that ones ship is affoat and weather
in" the storm.
Friday night was terrible one of
the coast, the sea running high. Two
of the keepers of Seguin Light. Cap
tains Nye and Weaver, started In
their launch Friday afternoon for the
island from Popham, and found such
awful seas off Pond island that they
decided to return to the mainland. In
swinging the launch, the men nearly
swamped the boat, the big waves go
ing all over the craft. Every second
during the turning of the little YES
sci the men expected to see her
founder. but she behaved splendidly
and finally headed for Popham, where
they safely arrived and passed the
night. Their absence left but one
keeper of the light on Seguin during
the night and he remained on duty
until morning without sleep. The surf
on Popham beach was worth going
down to see.

that they'll allow without much ques-
ton"
Although Warren carried both fire
and burglar insurance, this was the
first accident they had had, and Helen
looked forward with mingled dread
and excitement to the coming of the
insurance adjuster.
He did not come until late in the
afternoon. A young man, with shrewd
eyes and an abrupt businesslike man
ner. Helen led him into the bed rOOm
where she had arranged the burnt bed
ding, with the charred spots carefully
displayed to the best advantage.
How did this fire startF' as he
jOtted down some notes
She Tells Him.
II had the toothache," with a
deprecative laugh. and I'd heard some
one say an electric bulb could be used
as a hot water bottle"
The adjuster stared at her.
wei, that's a new one on me-"
Then as he lifted the pink silk shade
from the drop light by the bed, Was
this the buIb?'
Helen nodded, her color deepening.
Il should call that a pretty danger
Gus experiment" dryly. We really
shouldn't have to pay this kind of a
loss, but since it's small claim I'll
allow it"
Pm sure Mr.. Curtis wouldn't wish
you to allow it if it's not regular" re
torted Helen stiffly, resenting his
patrOniZing tone.
'Oh, thatn be all right; tell your
husband to send around his policy,
and Wen endorse the claim. Only here
after" with a twinkle, I'D recommend
the hot water bottle as safer"
When Helen showed him to the door,
she tried to imply by her frigid good
afternoon" that she disapproved Of his
slightly facetious attitude
Then she started to put away the
burnt bedding. The sheets would do
for the ironing board, she reflected
They might even be cut down for the
maids bed! And the blanket? She
ran out to Nora's room and found that
blanket could be cut off and still leave
them wide enough for her bed.
And the naUtress-after all would
it need a new top?
The Joy of getting something for
nothing is strong in every woman, and
Helen was no exception. And now the
thought that she was getting $40 to
buy new bedding, while she was able
to make such advantageous use of the
old, was highly gratifying.
Eagerly she counted over the pos
sibilities of the $40
Helen was jubilant. It was a most
satisfactory deal. The thought that
it was not quite a fair one to the in
Surance company aid not trouble her,
for had not Warren made out the
claim? And he always leaned back
ward in his honesty If he thought it
was all right, surely she need not
worry.
She was still planning when Mrs.
Stevens came. Helen had phoned her
of the accident that morning, and now
with keen feminine interest she had
stopped by to talk it over.
Not Enough.
Again Helen displayed the burnt bed
ding, and told Of the calm Of $40 which

In return for the many favors that

his career will be cut short. This is
a day of scientific buttermaking.
When man must know the where
and the wherefore-day of system and
of record, when a man uses to his fu-
ture advantage the successes and fail
ures of the past.
The buttermaker who does not use
a system of checks and balances, does
not keep record and make tests of his
work, is back number and belongs
to the pick and shovel crowd.
The management of creamery is
not different from the management of
any other manufacturing industry, and
consequently the man who holds the
position must have modern business
ideas and business methods, giving to
the business the attention it deserves.
Too many of our local creameries are
managed by men who make the posi-
ton a side issue, and the creamery is
in short time side issue, also
The manager who does not have a
record of each days operation, who
does not check up every night, who
does not know all the details of the
work should join the crowd of the
back number buttermakers."
There is a promising future for our
local creameries, but there must of
needs be greater production, better
quality and more cooperation before
we can realize it.
