Mr. Matthews should rest thrpugh this

supped he came on deck, and Mr. Mat
thews, at Boldoek’s request, went be
low to turn in as soon as ever he chose.
Boldock had jnst filted and lighted a
second immense bowlful. Wlien Hardy
rose through .the hatch, ho found his
commander standing at the skylight
gazing down at Miss MilnseL He puffed
out great clouds, which Slackened the
fog in . bis neighborhood. His posture
was meditative. The light oi the cabin-
lamp was upon his figure and reyealed
him. He stood a confused shape amid
stepped to tho wheel and took a look at
the binnacle. His cough caused tba
commauder to start and back away to
the rail against which he leaned, suck
ing his great curled meerschaum.
Mr. Hardy approached and stood close.
Now flint they were at the rail, the
fires alongside rendered them visible to
each other.
“I never remember a placket uigbt
than this,” said tbe commander.
“NorI, sir.”
“I believeit signifies nothing bnt fog,

Boldock drank three glasses. He wag,

The commander shoterect on turning
and seeing her. He was startled. It was
an apparition. She was new to the ship,
if not perhaps to his recent reflections,
and imhit ip blp) was~astonished. Her
dark eyes werp peculiarly black .and

of tbeir situation will not permit ships
to approach.”
Mr. Hardy’s flowing trousers fluttered
oil ibe steps.
“Here’s the island the econndrels
have carried the ship to, Hardy,” said
the commauder.
“Halloran island! Not ont of onr
road either. Very curious indeed, sir,”
said Hardy. .
“It came to me in a dream just now, ”
said Miss Mansel.
“Likely as not tho scoundrels will cast
the ship away on one of thesq reefs,”
said the commander, putting a sqnare
ended finger npou the phart, “when
tijey’vo transported tho gold Into tho
brigantine,” Then folding his arms and
leaning against the table he looked
earnestly at Mr. Hardy and said: “I
propose tS hPcld straight for Halloran

there. There will be several phauees in
this business., ,T
“I am certain yon will find the ship
there,'*’ said Miss Mansel.
“We fire a very slow brig, ” exclaim
ed Mr. Hardy, " ”If {ho fellows are

There is a disease prevailing in this
countiy most’Hangerous because so decep
tive. Many sudden deaths are caysed by
it—-heart disease, pneumonia, heart failure
or apoplexy are often the result of kidney
disease. If kidney trouble is allowed to ad
vance the kidney-poisoned blood will attack
the vital organs, or the kidneys themselves
down_ and waste away cell by cell.
rherTtne richness of the blood—the albumen
—leaks out and the sufferer has Bright’s
Disease, the worst form of kidney trouble.

I think,” said Mr. Hardy, “if wind
was at baud we should be able to smell
it coming along over this grease calm.”
“And tbe silenco is ns remarkable as
tbe blackness,” said the commander.
“Yon should be able to bear a baby
hurrahing a mile off. ”
In tbe panse that followed no sound
was to be beard save the noise tho com
mander made in smoking his pipe. The
snetion of bis lips was like the drawing
of corks and the gurgling of liquor.
“Hardy,’’said be presently, "did yon
ever allow yonr thoughts to rnn in the
direction of matrimony?”
Tbe mato of tbe brig answered with a
langb.
“Thatquestion,’’saidBoldock, in his
deep, lamenting voice, “usually excites
merriment, particularly among middle
aged bachelors. But I don’t know why
it should. Marriage is tbe most awful
of - all events. It means population, and
what does that signify but tho passions,
tbe struggles, the griefs, hopes, reli
gions, deaths and aspirations after death
of poor humanity?”
“Oue docs sometimes laugh in the
wrong place, sir,” said Mr. Hardy, in
a voice of respectful apology. “I have
laughed iu church, sir, but theu, to be
sure, I was a heedless young mnu. ”
“It must be n nice thing to have a
nico wife,” said Boldock.
“A nice wife.” said Mr. Hardy.
“A nice wife, certainly,” exclaimed
the commander, “a lady that would
make a comfortable home for a man. A
man wants a comfortable home. I feel
the need of it all the while I am ashore
and yearn for it all the time I am at
sea. I do not like lodgings. There is a
coldness, an indifference, an insensibil
ity to yonr feelings and wants*—to wants,
I mean, which are not to bo supplied by
anything iu the philosophy of latchkeys
and shaviug water.”
I have uo great opinion of mar
riage, ” said the mate. “Tho hilling
and cooing season is commonly reckon
ed tho best part, bnt theu comes the
family, and in a little while, sir, yon
may calculate how long tho couple have
been married by measuring the distance
one walks behind t’other when out for
astrolL”
“Everyman wants a home,” said the
commander after a succession of cork
drawing suoks at the heavy amber
mouthpiece of his pipe.
“Seems to me, sir, a-' man wants a
good deal that he can’t get. There’s
nothing that I’d like better than a home
myself. Bat it’s too expensive. ”
Boldock hove ont a sigh that had the
strength and volume of a groan. A sail
flapped aloft; a sheave on some rusty pin
squealed like a rat to some sadden drag.
“Atnll events,” said the commander,
“I am sick of the sea, Hardy, and shaii
abandon it before long. ”
“I wish I coaid see my way to tako
that view, sir,” said the mato, looking
at the lights in the water.
‘ ‘It is plcassn t> ’ ’ said the commander,
“to think of settling down ashore when
one is at sea. I picture g white faced
cottago with a red roof. That fed roof
shines amid tbe trees. J’ve a fancy of
being able (o see my house when I’m a
long way off from it. In imagination, 5
Hardy, I stand upon a lawn like velvet

flowers and listen io tho silver tinkling
of a little fountain of water. When X

and bo ws and arrows from savago places,
an immense leather armchair, with plen
ty of .stern sheets, iu which I sit, in slip
pers and .shirjt sleeves, with a pipe in

and tbe bees out pf doors, ’*
“That sort of ho'ss takes a deal of
keeping up, sir,” said iffr. Hardy, con-
tinning to leer at the sheeting and cloud-
fug lights alongside, is whose images
and wild, fanciful drawings, as tho
gleaming stuff met, dissolved and trem
bled off in fibers, and darts from the
brig’s side,' the poor fellow might have
witnessed illusions not less hallow and
hopeless than the dreams which had
sometimes haunted his lonely quarter
deck lookouts.
The commander, finding his pipe out,
went h.e.low. The cabin was empty.
Boldock seated himself at the table, and
presently .a sailor arrived with a kettle
Ol hot-water, which he placed before the
commander on 3 threp legged rest. Tho
same sailor produced'from 3 locker a
bottle of rum, a lemon and some loaf
sugar, and then, with a flourish of his
thumb at a Jock of hair and a thirsty
lingering look at the bottle, he went np
the ladder and vanished.
Boldock mixed himself a glass of hot
