Grind era down, rut em with an Iron hand, and theyll not only do their work at the run nut theyll com crawling along and ask you for more. Thats my experience, and 80 years at sea, mta and boy, hasnt inclined me to dispute facts AS they stand. I call It fruity, said his wife without heat, for she Was I woman pf sadness. She knew the cause of that sadness, as did lier husband, but It was nevef mentioned between them by ft tacit agreement. Twenty-fivyears of married life had resulted In a fine endurance of marital affection the skippers long absences from borne might have accounted for that In some measure. The two were good friends, and bickering betweeu them was a thing unknown. There had been one child very many years ago, but It only raised Its voice once In the great world and before the mothers heart had quickened In response the voice was stilled forever. The Lord had given; Be had also taken away, and Mrs. Hapshott endeavored to aay Blessed be the name of the Lord with a good grace, though at time the saying was hard. To hide his emotion the captain threw gruff-nes- a Into his voice. Im thinking I made a mistake In bringing you te sea, luss, he said. It Isnt a place for women, least of all women such as you are. But you begged and prayed, and the owners seeuied willing It got to be lonely waiting there ashore, Hiram, she said simply. It was at nights, when when the wind howled and the snow fell everywhere I saw other women happy and companionable, with tbelr men about them; and It It was wore than I could stand. It would have been easier If If thered if Amo had lived. He understood, and his rough gnarled hand crept out along the rati until It rested on hers with the pressure of sympathy.

The womans voice was fall of something to which her husband could jmt no name. mZS bl'T en wb,t eI could it be, lass?" Mrs. HapRbott lifted her eyes and searched the seas far rim. Her gaze returned, only to be lifted again; suddenly she stiffened where1 she stood, and her ears strained. She sprang upon tne rail and stood there erect, her eyes peering Intently. Was it fancy or could she actually sea something! There, in the middle distance a veritable speck la the waste of waters was It a shadow, was It the fin of a lurking shark, or was It was It ! Two seconds she looked, then she ran aft, the men watching her In wonder.

From the Jorepeak, whither he had descended, the mate came aft st a run; the men following fast.

The boat turned hung motionless; those aboard were busy st some task. Then the oars shot out like the limbs of a gigantic spider; Mrs. Hapshotts heart beat faster and faster so fast that only with difficulty could she draw her breath.
