Inventing a Penalty.

1I the old days naval captains were
u likely to be martinets and some
times they were not only strict, but
unjust as well.
In the British navy. during the fifties,
Sir Lewis Tobias Jones was what
sailors called a ''taut hand" an officer
with stern sense of duty. which made
him as merciless to others as to him
self knowing his reputation, the mid
dies who came under his sway dreaded
him exceedingly, but they found thai
he was a man to be admired as wei
as feared. In this relation the follow
ing story was told in after years by
Admiral Montague, who. at the time
referred to. was a middle.
Only once did Sir Lewis fall foul OF
Montague, and that in a way to sus-
gest the punishments belonging to the
schoolroom. 1t was a bitterly cold day
and the wretched MILDLY on watch had
to walk the lee side of the deck. The
maintrysail was set, the most draughty
sail in the world, sending the winds
whistling down the neck Of anybody
beneath.
Montague was perishfng with cold.
and in a moment of thoughtlessness
put his poor little fingers in his
pockets to keep them warm. Now the
captain was pacing UP and down the
sheltered side of the vessel, and per-
haps he could not realize the boys eX-
cuse for a breach of discipline. To see
a pair of hands in a middy's pockets,
on the sacred precincts of her ma
jesty's quarterback, was more than he
could bear. He called to the boy in 4
stentorian tone:
who gave you permission to keep
your hands in your pockets on the
Quarterback? Go down Immediately to
the tailor, on the half-deck, and tell
him, from me, to sew your pockets up
instantly. Report to me. sir. when
he has done"'
The boy fed. realizing his disgrace.
and, knowing that the only chance OF
retrieving his character was to urge
the tailor to bear a hand" for the

The tailor appreciated the situation,
dropped his work and sewed up the
pockets in a twinkling. The boy ran
back to his place, trembling with fright
now instead of cold, but to his sur
prise, he was received In the most
manner.
Now, my boy" said the captain.
"this is a lesson to you. Do
not do it again. Go below to the tailor
