Li; Iitilpbln, bound from New York to
the K.tl lnd.es.
Toiu as deeply Impressed by the words
of his adviser. He lore them In mind,
and, after the Teel sailed, w as so prompt
and cheerful in obeying orders that he
became a fiivorlto l-oth with the fore
mat hands and tlie ofl'.cern.
Sometimes ths l;ul, set to pconrinK the
decki, polishiii the rui-lxilts, or hoistina;
heavy cn-ks out of the hold, would feel as
lf ready to droj with fatigue, but not a
murmur would eneape hid lips. He was
resoHed to do his duty bravely, even
though It should kill him.
Fortunately, It find, a kckxI effect upon
Mm, enhtrgiiii? Ids lungs and chest, mak
ing him broad iu the shoulders, and strong
and muscular in the arms. Slender, and
rather delicate when he sailed, he was
fast becoming "all right and shipshape,"
as his frieud, the old sailor, had expressed
It.
One day, the vessel lay becalmed in the
Indian Ocean. The air was btliling : thfs
men breathed with difiiculty. Suddenly
the barometer be.an to fall with alarm
ing rajiidity. In the distance a hollow,
humming uoise was heard. Far away to
windward was seen a long, broad patch
cf w hite water.
"Hands by the halliards! In with roy
als and to'-unllnnt sails ! Stand by to
clew tip the fore ami mlzzen topsails and
double reef the main !" sr-reamed the cap
tain, iu a voice that made every mar
jump.
Ere the tars could olK-y, the storm, roar
ing and howling, driving the seas in great,
White walls of foaming water and spray
before it, came sweeping alonir with ter
rillo velocity not a mile to windward.
The active sailors clewed up and down
as fast as they could ; then aloft they went
and laid out on the yards.
Scarcely were the fore and mizzen top
sails roiled tip, when, with twmeiufous
fury, the pale strut-!: the ship.
Down she went almost ou her beam
ends, tearing through the water, in which
She was engulfed to her w aist. The can
vas was jerked from tinder the men like a
flah. "Whipping about a moment, with
the din of thunder, it was torn from the
jackhtays and bent whirling in shreds
straight np Into the black rack of the
tempest.
Meanwhile ropes and sheets were slat
ting about all over the ship. The whist
ling shrouds bellied far inward, the track
ing masts bent over lifce whalebones: the
huge anchors quivered and reeled ou the
cat-heads.
Tom lirotvn, with another lad. was nt
the wheel, uspisted hy tins sucoiiJ mute.
The wheel was now like a living monster.
It struggled to free it, c!f from rho grasp
of the three sailors, who htM and con
trolled it with diCienlry.
Suddenly a snapping sound, louder than
the other noises, was heard aloft. The
Ceathxr malu-to'gaJIan-..sail-sheet had
pra ted. The sail, tiApping about, threat
ened to 'carry away the niast.
v "Up there you go, liill!" cried th cap
tain to lbs lad noxt to Urown; "and cut
that sailclearot the jackstays!'
Bill turned pale and trembled, but did
not move from the wheel.
"Oh, captain, nobody conld go -up there ,
and lire!" he gasped. "Don't make me
go, sir!"
In fact the task of cutting clear that
slatting sail, with the mat reeling and
jerking, threatening to give way every
moment, must prove a perilous under
taking. "I tell you to go!" repeated the captain.
"I can't! I can't!" cried Hill, as white
as a sheet. "Anything else 1 11 do, cap
tain, but don't send me to my death."
The skipper, glaring angrily at the
speaker an instant, looked at Tom Brown.
"Go up there, Tom, and cut the sail
clear." -
Tom also turned' pale, but his eyes
flashed, and his clear, ringing voice was
heard:
"Aye, aye, Bir.r , '
With difficulty be held to the shrouds.
Several times his feet were jerked from
Tinder blm, but he drew them back and
. kept bravely on.
He reached the top gallant mast. The
ship made a terrific plunge. Then &he
came np w-ith a tremendous Jerk.
The boy's feet again flew from under
him He was flung from the shrouds;
but he just saved himself from failing by
clutching the top gallant halliards.
Wilder and more violently slatted the
canvas every moment. Several tlme It
struck him with tremendous force, wheu
he only saved himself by clinging under
It with both arms to the yard. The In
stant it flew back, affording him a chance
to work with his knife, he was busy cut
ting at the strands. He bad almost
cleared the sail from the spar, when the
ship plunged again, coming np the next
moment with a jerk that made every
thing reel. . , .
A crack like the report of a musket was
beard, and away went Die top and top-gallc-nt
mat by the board, as the bihvs
parted Tom, when he feit the mast go
ing had thrown hhnself inboard, clutch
ing'two ratlines. Hy these he hung, fiill
in, with the spar, into the sea.
The ship, dashing on, w as soon lota 1o
bis view in the dark rack, the mist and
the ppray of the storm. No loat could he
lowe red for him in such a gale. There, he

Out loudest talker, our showiest dresser,
our most lavishly bebanged is the
"gal" whose visiting cards arc decorated
with pigmented sunflowers and Inscribed
fcMiss tlenoa Dean," but who is more
familiarly known in ber own twenty
miles away woods as "Swearing Gin."
Her familiar conversation is quite Car-1
lylese that Is, Jane, not Thomas, Car
lylese, and her "devil take Its!" "hang
It's!" "great gods'." and many vastly
stronger expressions are eminentlyworthy
ot "your much-bedeveled Jane" of the
"Memorials."
She is, however, bard-working and
honest, is always stupendously perfumed
with camphor, "to squash the smell o'
cow," sleeps iu gloves, and does our
housework, including barn chores, for ti
a week.
"Ain't that your feller a-comin', Glnf"
asks her mistress, peering through the
window-vines.
"lxrd! ef it jest ain't!" screams Miss
Dean, stampeding upstairs to her bed
room. A moment later the reappears, a
hand-glass in one hand, in the other a
6ponge dripping Bloom of Youth. One
eye follows her beautifying in the mirror,
the other watches her "feller."
The question adjusts itself thus: Which
will arrive flrst, complexion or feller?
Miss Dean whistles about iier work like
a trooper, and the frail pine mansion
trembles beneath her tread as w ere she
an army with banners.
Sometimes she addresses her employei
em "Jim," sometimes aa "You darned old
fool 1"
To her mistress she 6weelly remarks,
"Do Jest hold your ywap. You've got
more chin 'n's healthy." iJiiuincott't

A physician stationed as Sanitary In
spector near tho Canadian frontier haa
had an opporkiinlty to see the pranks oi
those uhTortumite people known as "jump
ers" we say unfortunate because ho
tays they art: the victims of a peculiar
condition of the nervous system, iu part
develo.-d by thclf peculiar bringing up.
Thus they are rendered susceptible to be
insi psychologized with a word often to
their own injury or anot hers dls'-om tit tire.
This observer writes : "It may be slated
that at any time and under any circum
stances wit 'i the slightest provocation,
and almoit instantaneously on being
spoken to, one of these fellows wUi obey
any command, imitate any action, wi.h
o;.t :var.'. t Hp u. ture, tri ial or bci'ioa.
He v ill leap on to a tal-!e, or ov er a Ktove,
or into a riv or or pond ; throw any articlt
or wespon he nmy have hi hand in any
direction indicated; will repeat any sen
tence or exclamation. So serious a mat
ter is this that many of tbo lumbermen
absolutely refuse to admit a man known
as a "jumper" into their camps. I find
they are not wholly confined to Vrmch
Canadiana. as occasionally a Canadian of
Irish parentage will exhibit the samt
symptoms." Dr. l'oote's llcuitliMuutnly.

The co-operative metluxl of insurance
against lire or any other accident, death
included, or what is known as the mutual
plan, is decidedly the ffe.-t for the. insurers
liecausc- they get the benefit and the seen
lity for precisely whnt it costs. At least
they do this if tin y do not support an ex
travagai-.t oflloe uud ixy more tor the oflic
work than is necessary. Tiie principle ol
it is that the parties insured pay an un
reasonable hum for necessary expense!
and suneivrsion and divide the losses
among themselves pro lain. This is pre
cisely the true idea of insurance. There if
nothing lost through these payments b
cause it Is simpiy the cost of the security
enjoyed ngainst any risk which each mem
ber has of a loss hlnvseU.

A New York young man in three months
gav e his scat in a car to til ij -lime women
and girls young women, old women,
pretty girls, ugly girls, shop girh-, cash
glris Jifh girls, colored girls washer
women, women with diamond and seal
skins, ami very shabby women. Kvery
one of those thanked the young man. On;
grateful old soul gave him a doughnut
from her basket ; several of them held his
6achel and bundles while he stood. He had
a cough once and a kind-hearted old wo
man told him what to do for it, and on one
occasion a grateful old Irish woman an
nounced to the car that he was '"aijiritle
man if ever there was wan." I'erhnps,
after all, when a woman neglects to thank
a man for giv ing her a seat it may only be
iecause she fears he may lie ''niJLher''

The pig is snnwtimes a member of the
CajM' Rreton household in regard to bed

A minister at a wedding remained all
night, and was given a low cot bed in the
living room. In the night he was started
at finding some one getting into his beiL
and Boon felt it to be the pig nestling
down against his back. He tried to drive
it out, but the outraged aninud would not

habit of the pig to tome into bed with

I renei.t at a game in a .Sfuiitnr'.s house
o:ie n",i.t and saw him v in tii.O'iy

Wi.at is ll.e dead man's hand WLy, it
is thr. e ,ai aad a jair of tens. It . is
a!!.-i": U.e de.-.d man's hand because alout
f.-itr years a ;o In a town in Illinois, a
relebiafrd jin!cr bet Ms bouse and lot on
tbres ji ks and a ptur of tens. It kw the
l-t p1ei- of pTojierty he had in the world.
W lien his opponent sheaved up he badtbreo
ejuec-ns antl a pair of tens. Upon seeing
the queens the Judge fell back dead,
clutching the jacks ami tens in bis lain 1,
and that a why a jack-full on tons is called
the dead man's band. Well, I saw the
member we are talking altout now win
i'ti.ooil, on this band. There were six
getitlemen playimr. and all were In, and
and all had big hands. One had a nine
full, another a four-full, another three
aces another three kings and another a
seven-full, It was a $40 ante and tJO to
come in ; but the first man straddled the
blind, making it forty dollars to come
in. As all took cards, there were 1240
In the pot to beirln with. The
first man et $200. The man to his left
simply called it, but the next mnn raised
It :i00. This put the bet to f 500, and the
next man called it. When it got to the
estern meuiiier, who dealt, he raised it
to 11,000. This scarod everybody out
except another Weotern man, a distin
guished railroad lawyer. The lawyer saw
the Congressman's 1 1,000 and went f 1,000
better, stopping to take a check book from
his coat-pocket and draw a sight draft
for the amount. The Congressman saw
this and went 12,500 better. The lawyer
then began to think. He looked at the
Congressman sharply and long, studying
bis countenance to see if be could form an
idea of the baud ho sat upon. Then he
fell to studying ids own hand and to rul
bing lus forehead in a meditative wy.
Then he laid his cards down, coolly took
out his check-book, wrote a check for
2,.00 and called the Congressman. The
Congressman held the dead man's band
and the lawyer three nines and a pair ot
sixei. Subtracting the ?40 he had put
into the blind and the bets he bad made
himself, there was exactly t'l, 100 in the
pot which represented the Congressman's
winnings on that hand. Did the game
goon!' Oh! yes; but Uio railroml lawyer
bad a very dry cough the balance of the
evening, and his apparent melancholy had
u depressing effect ou the balance of the
company. So, after an hour, or there
altouts, the game broke up. This railroad
lawyer, who Is exceedingly well-known
West and Fart, went to New York the
next day, and 1 at terw ard heard that he
lost $JO,ooo one night at jioker In a room
in the Hoffman House."
A Southern Congressman was credited
during the 4Mb Congress with wiunimr
enough money at poker to payoff a fi-'O.Ooo
mortgage with interest on his plantation,
and to replace his old mules plows wag
ons and larm implements generally with
new ones He would not play except at
unlimited games and he played with a
dash anil iioldness that dismayed his oppo
nents. Luck attended him until the very
thank end of the session. Finally it
turned, but too late for the losers to get
much of their money back. The South
erner went homo iao.OCO belter off than be
came. The next session It was the other
way. The Southerner bunu-d up the same
old set, and for a lerv days played willi ids
magical luck. Then unkiuo fortune began
to vouchsafe to him only sninil pwirs
which he could never strengthen by a
draw, or r-.Taspftrating Dutcn fulls or tan
talising bobtail flushes. So the Southerner
took to bin III tig. and in time ran np
against a successive series of three aces
king-fulls, foiirs-of-a-kind, straight Hushes
and the Vke w 1th disastrous rosult-. To
save his life he couldn't make a vniall pair
evolute into threes and to four hearts be
invariably drew an off-suit, like a decep
tive diamond oran ominous and gruesome
spade. So he continued to blull and to
get caught. Now there is another mort
gage on his plantation. In the old slavery
days, when n " cnithern Congressman
wanted to rn!e a "poker stake he would
'tell a nigger," but now he must sell a few
males or mortgage his plantation, and, of
course, tuo latter is much the simplest
plan.
Hi on iii ameer I lis In Perila.
The I'ersian pattern of a tent worthy of
notice is descibed in the Century.
It formerly tliviged to a I'ersian
general, who used it when accompanying
the king or the army In the field. It waa
Of pattern peculiar to Persia, where it
has leen the- enstom for the court to
spend the Summer In tents Consequent
ly, the making of tents haa been carried
to greut iHTfection iu Persia and has
given good scope to the decorativ e talents
of the native artist
My tent wrrs of the sort called kalemkar,
the designs of the Interior tieing done by
band, and the colors being also applied or
stamped by hand. ' Nothing could exceed
the extraordinary beauty of the intricate
designs which completely covered the in
terior of this tent.
F.ach panel had in the centre an agree
able representation of the conventional
figure ota cypress ortrcoof life, w hich we
are in the habit, ot calling the: palm leaf
pattern wheu wo see it on Cashmere
shawls. . . .
Hut this is an error; it Is the cypress
that is intended in this design. Around
this figure were wreaths of flowers inter-,
wovt-ii with birds of paradise, and at the
base of the piciure weie grotesque e!o
phants pursued by hunters brandishing
cimeters
Over the junction of the panels wns a
pair of exqni.-itely comical lions of the
most ferocious aspect, bearing naked
swords in their right p.aws. This is but a
fecbie description of ihe graceful and
feit lie fancy displayed in this intricate
and lovely system of decoration.
As in ail Oriental decoration, the In
dividuality of the artist wis apparent in a
score of repetitions; for while repeating
the same genera! plan in each panel, the
artist allowed himself to vary t!?. Arrange

shouted as he whirled by: '"Git a partuet

Innocent, happy enjoyment, and remained
a wall-flower throughout the balance of
the evening. When tbo gay revelers bad
danced unremittingly until about 1 A. M.,
a halt was called and supper announced.
The supper was spread Ui a large tent at
the bock of the main building, and this
canvas house was made confortable and
pleasant by the aid of a large stovo.
There were oysters, turkey, venison and
all manner of canned goods coffee and
cigars In abundance' but not one drop of
whisky or Rplrituoua diiuks of any kind,
When supper was finished the order came

for this and at once commenced S"lcct

asked her lf that was a relic she particu
larly desired to keep, 'he said i 'No : btit '
she had given it to one ol her neighbors." I
I told her that-ibnt would no do; they j
could not be permitted to take It. A-fter '
giving Mrs. Thompson an hour for her i
work I spoke to Lieut, Fetturuian, j
who went np stairs la a few minutes j
the upper story was full of Smoke, the

out into the yard. As Mrs. Thompson i

He has made this wall nearly os hard

Again, the sole t the hoof has been
formed archwise ..f successive layers of
exceedingly bard horn. It bids debunce

So the sole Inspires man with another

j pretty enough to lie the belle of the oc-

learned that she was my recruit with the
lady like hands. She afterward told me
that she owed inc a dobt of gratitude for
stepping in at the right time to break
down her romantic notions. A good
many womeu went into tho army and got
out of it without any notoriety. They
