HERE is an old story of the old
DAYS when whisky barrels
dwelt in home cellars in this
land and were within the law.
A little mouse ventured near
the leaky tap of one of these barrels
and, the story goes, imbibed lot of
the drippings When these got in
their work on the mouse, he reared
upon his hind legs and called in the
echoing cellar. Now bring on that

sound for one glorious moment a
shout of defiance to it. But only
when we stop caring about it, and
with the stopping still have breath
enough and humor enough to Joke
with life. Or play joke on it. Which
IS what one mouse of man did and
thereby made one of the most inter
esting stories in the annals OF the
Paris police.
Louis Benet was a slight gray
mouse of man, timid but hungry
for life. He wanted love, but women
smiled, not with him, but at him. For
he was a shrinking figure of a man,
too hungry for love to command it
and most women want a man for a
lover, not a mouse.
He was an extra or sort of cho-
rus man in a small boulevard theater
in Paris, and the slighter his talents
the more a man like Benet dreams
of great success on the stage of life.
But dreams were all that he achieved.
For Reality daily and hourly tripped
him as he walked with his head full
of dreams and yearnings, and down
he would crash to the smokers and

| ton of bergs and the drift of the
nearest ice is of the greatest possible
help to the captains of vessels near
ing that Gateway to the Atlantic"
Probably the most constructive
work carried on by the Coast Guard
is the scientific research conducted
on the 1ce-patrol vessels off the Grand
Banks, which has now advanced to
the stage where it is possible to issue
ice forecasts two or three weeks in
advance, as a result of the expert
ments carried on by the officer in
charge of such work on the patrol
boat, in cooperation with Capt. Wal
ter Crosley, in charge of the Hydro
graphic office of the Navy.
Prior to the establishment of the
ice patrol, it was the general custom
of vessels to take their course direct
ly across the banks, which carried
them through the ice zone during a
large part of the year, and nothing
had been attempted in the way of spe-
cial protection from icebergs, whose
drift varied from day to day.
When the Seneca and Miami
went on regular duty during the ice
season, which lasts from March to
July. it was suggested that an inves-
/, tigation be made of the physical
properties of the ice, it's drift, erosion
and melting, with temperatures of sea
water and atmosphere in the vicinity
of the ice, and the habits of seals
and birds with regard to such ice; in
addition, that the various currents be
studied. so that this mass of data
might eventually be collected and
available to science in the hope of
aiding navigation in practical way.
The British government had taken
up the question of ice observation for
a time, and chartered the steam
trawler Scotia which operated off
Newfoundland, but was much ham,
pered by the continual fog and storm.
However, much useful information
was gathered that first season of 1913,
and since then a commissioned officer
was constantly on duty with the
patrol ship as oceanographic observer.
Sometimes as many as six or eight
bergS sweep down on the ice patrol
at once, and the ice experts have a
busy time warning mariners and de-
stroying the foes before they have a
chance to do harm to some vessel.
Sea Ice is the name given to ice
formed on salt water, commonly
known to mariners as field ice, and
as this is flat on the water, it Is
easily moved by wind and current.
By early February this field ice
covers the greater part of the Grand
Banks, where it drifts about and later

closed.
The police badgered, bullied.
threatened. No use. A greater ter
ror defeated their threats. Finally
the subordinates called in their chief,
a higher officer in the service de
surete, the detective branch Of the
Paris police. He was a shrewd judge
of character. He dismissed the others
and sat down to a quiet talk with
Louis.
you don't look like one who would
traffic in this thing, especially at the
expense of your friends" he said
kindly. "Now, why don't you help us
break up this terrible traffic?"
Kindness was harder to resis- than
cruelty and threats. But not enough
to overcome the fear of death.
Because. monsieur. they threatened
to kill me, and know you will not be
able to prevent them from doing it,

chattering.

not to give his right name, studied
Louis. Then he realized that police
threats would never make Louis sign
his own death warrant. Monsieur
rose, his eyes averted.

something which you are convinced

owner of this little theater.
She produced whatever would pay
--melodrama. farce, tawdry reviews,
| anything she could cook up on the
little capital she had. She employed
such men as Louis not because OF
their talents. but because she could
| pay them so little and make them
| work SO hard.
For years Louis obeyed her like a
| slave. For he was doubly her slave,
being dependent on her for bread and
| butter. and also because he was
secretly in love with this highly
colored. dominating, black eyed red
