After trying in vain for months

with a -or-die look on his

without being successful, till at last
his steps led him to the river.
"Ah!" he said in utter despair,
chow tempting it looks!" He was al
most inclined to plunge in and end it
all.
All of a sudden he heard splash
and, looking around, he saw his friend
Green struggling in the water. With
out attempting to save him he rushed
off to the local house agent.

"Aye, ave." said the Mate, "but the

So that was the ship the breakers
