more than 40 miles. II Is not only
possible for a ship equipped with the
new device TO tell its exact distaDce
from land. but the presence OF other
ships may be detected In plenty OF
time TO avoid collision. and even the

Billy and Nanny did not run away
again and they gave up the search
for their children with sorrowful
hearts. They never forgot or ceas-
e talk about them, and on warm,
moonlight nights they would lie out
in the pasture and wonder where
Day and Night were.
"A long time after this, when
goats had come and gone at Mr..
Windlass', Billy and Nanny could
still be seen there. Billy was get
ting little stiff In the joints from
rheumatism contracted from lying
on the damp ground at night. and
Nanny had grown from slender
young thing into a fat, matronly-
looking goat.
One day two strange goats were
seen coming down the lane.
who can those two handsome
visitors be--one so strong and
black as Jet. and the other equally
strong but more slenderly built,
with snow white hair?' asked both
the old goats at the same time. The
strangers seemed to know the way
and appeared to be very much at
home, for they walked along until
they came to the lowest part Of the
fence, and then, without moments
hesitation. jumped over 1t into the
meadow and walked straight up to
where Billy was standing chewing
grass, as an old man chews tobacco,
with his long, white beard bobbing
up and down. and Nanny was lying
down beside him.
Then the strangers got quite
close, the white one ran forward,
crying. Mamma, mamma, don't
you know me, your own daughter,
Day."
When Nanny heard that voice
she was on her feet with a bound.
and you can imagine the affecting
