  THE BOATSWAIN'S MATE 
  
  [Illustration: "The Boatswain's Mate"] 
  
  Mr. George Benn, retired boat-swain, sighed noisily, and with a despondent gesture, turned to the door and stood with the handle in his hand; Mrs. Waters, sitting behind the tiny bar in a tall Windsor-chair, eyed him with some heat. 
  "My feelings'll never change," said the boatswain. 
  "Nor mine either," said the landlady, sharply.  "It's a strange thing, Mr. Benn, but you always ask me to marry you after the third mug."
