never oh hush he soothed her a terrific din had burst out from some point nearby on the maindeck and it did not seem human he led her to the bucket rail soothing her with quiet assurances they stood together at the nil the kneeling men scattered nil across tho wide expanse of plank deck hod stopped work and remained in grotesque attitudes listening to the din that come from tho hen coops horo a man held his slimed holystone halfway to his shoulder while ho turned up his shirt sleeve over there a man had both hands bearing heav ily upon his stone his back arched his face upturned vacantly young mr 4tams paused on the point of hurling a bucketful of water along the planks an apprentice who had been working in a corner under the fifcrail with a small holystone called a prayerbook and had been helping the toil by sing ing holy holy holy peered out through a tangle of ropo gear with his mouth open on the last holyl and still tho ships gear gave forth its own tremendous thunder what is it mr stevens drake called impatiently thats what im going to see snapped jake ho stalked towards tho hen coop scowling blackly and tho poultry squawked and fought the feathers flew and the men wondered someat aint right aboard this bloody ship mutteied one the ship started one of her heavy rolling spells as jake stevens reached the hen coop and knelt to peer inside the chickens seemed to go niad a man on his knees tumbled over and capsized a bucket of water ever his next neighbor who cursed him and beat him over the head with his holy stone the water slopped from mr adams bucket and filled his seabeots he cursed too and at the moment when mr stevens raked out from the hen coop a halfshedded rat as big as the ships cat which had invaded the coop for eggs and met a water loo of leaks a smooth shining harm less looking swell rolled up from no where and toppled over te topgallant rail to stnrboard in a s- ond the maindeck was flood ed and men buckets scrubbers and stones were hurled pemell across to port ail to crash together ir one bruised strangled heap as the ship rolled mr stevens hung on to the bars of the coop to preserve his footing the sea lifted the coop the lashings burst the mate rolled away on tho flood with the door of the coop in his hands and in a moment the glassy swells to leeward were doited with high riding squawking doomed fowls that rose and ftll and flapped wings and gaped with open beaks in a new found liberty that meant a watery death dammit what sid you do that for you clumsy fool shouted drake at stevens nothing in the world could have more concisely expressed the strain under which even the cap tain lived just then mary started in alarm staring up at drakes white face he seemed so human so pleas antly different to her a moment ago she had warmed to him had nestled to him had begun to expert that he meant to thaw out of his duty ice now she shuddered again and glanc ed swiftly at the mate fearful shiv ery jake stevens stood in the swishing water that rolled across his legs knee deep in the scuppers where he had brought up hi still held on to the barred grating that had been the hen coop door the leather hinges flapped on the wood wet and slippery jakes face slowly turned purple under his blonde curls his blue eyes diminished in size until they appeared like twin points of fire set und-s- flat blond eaves in a mask of fury his teeth shone out ludicrously he seemed to be grin ning up at drake you talkin to me he snarled because if you are captain or no captain i tell you to go plumb to hell if youd been lookin after your ship instead o go ahead snarled stevens i let no man use that tone to me clear away there leave that boat come up here mr stevens that is an order thero was that in drakes voice now which penetrated even the shell of stevens fury to disobey meant in subordination the men knew better than to carry on drake had seen the film of wind creeping over the sky which could not be seen during those confused moments down in the flooded waist he would not lose precious time for a few fowls stevens mount ed the poop ladder sullenly mary stepped aside and with difficulty re frained from screaming she saw the two men face to face and never be fore had she so clearly seen them com pared in all their strength and weak ness im here captain announced stevens belligerently to be continued

dealers charity suffereth much a rural pension committee in on tario has just turned down twenty out of thirty applications for old age pensions on the ground that the chil dren of these unfortunate persons were perfectly able to support them tills is the fly in the ointment that the social roformer was eager to overlook the possibility that heart less offspring would take advantage of the charity of the state to get free of responsibility toward their ased and infirm parents the old age pension for tbc broken toller who has no other resource is an admir able thing but the old age pension as a sort of board and lodging ar rangement for lite convenience i persons who want to shirk their plain duty is something quite different we foresee that old age pension ad ministration is going to be beset with many difficulties it is going to give rise to much deception on the part of people who do not believe in honoring their father and their mo ther that their days may bo long in the land that the lord their god givcth them but who want to make a little money out of it we fore see that here will be much tall swear ing as to what the old folk may or may not have to live on and that pension boards will inevitably get themselves disliked by becoming in quisitorial however the old age pension is a great blessing but unlike the quality of mercy which is not strained it must be carefully filtered it it is not to be regarded as easy money by do signing persons like democracy it is a very fine thing and like de mocracy weve got to be very ca-c- ful about it montreal standard
