For the rest there was nothing more weighty or valuable than dust in the old striped treasure chest.

** Well, I’m blessed!’’ cried Allardyce, etaring blankiy into it. ‘‘Where does the weight come in, then?’’

‘‘Look at the thickness of tbe sides and look at tne lid. Why, it’s five

iuches through. And eee that grea’ metal spring across it.”’

‘*That’s for holding the fid up,’’ said the mate. ‘‘You see it will only stand straight. It won’t leam back. What's that German printing:on the inside?’’

“‘It means that it was made by Jo- hann Rothsteiv of Augsburg in 1606.’’

** And a solid bit of work too. But it doesn't throw much light on what has passed, does it, Captain Barclay: That candlestick looks like gold. We shall have something for our trouble after on." :

He leaned forward ‘to grasp it, and from that moment I have never doubted as to the reality of inspiration, for on the instant I caught him by the collar and pulied him straight again. It may have been some story of the middle ages which had come back to my mind, or it may have been that my eye caught some red which was not that of rust upon the upper part of the lock, but to him and to me it will always seem an inspiration, so prompt and sudden was

} my action.

‘“‘There’s deviltry dere,’’ said LI. ‘*Give me the crooked stick from the corner.’’

It was an ordinary walking cane witha a hooked top. I passed i¢ over the can- diestick and gave it a pull. With a flash a row of polished steel fangs shot out from below the upper lip, and the

wild animal. Clang came the huge lid into ite place, and the glasses on the swinging rack sang and tinkled with the shock. The mate sat down on the edge of the table and shivered likea frightened horse. ‘‘You’ve saved my life, Captain Barclay,’’ said he.

The young mother’s » delight and joy in her Mm beautiful baby is aiways ama accompanied by more Meor less care and solici- ww tude, and a certain de- ¥ eree of drain on het physical resources. She needs all the ening and help which to be obtained, in order not to fall a victim to the organic weaknesses incident to maternity.

The grandest help in the world for expectant mothers or nursing mothers is Dr. Fierce’s Favorite Prescription. It imparts health and strength directly to the delicate organs aud nerve-centers involved in motherhood.

It renders the coming of baby safe and almost fre from pain. It transmits constitutional health and hardihood to the child; promotes the secretion of abundant novrishment, and fortifies the mother with permanent vital energy.

not tell that golaen candlestick from the other articles of value, ard the instant that he laid hand upon it the terrible spring was vnloosed and the murderous steel spikes were driven into bis brain while the shock of the blow sent the victim backward and enabled the chest to automatically close itself. How many, I wondered, bad fallen victims to the ingenuity of the mechanic of Augsburg? And as I thought of the pos- sible history of that grim striped chest my resolution was very quickly taken.

‘‘Oarpenter, bring three men and car- ry this on deck.’’

“‘Going to throw it overboard, sir?’’

‘*Yes, Mr. Allardyce. I’m not super- stitious asa rule, but there are some things which are more than a eailor can be called upon to stand.”’

‘‘No wonder that brig made heavy weather, Captain Barclay, with sucha thing on board. The glass is droppiug

fast, sir, and we are only just in time.”’

So we did not even wait for the three

gsnilors, but we carried it out, the mate,

rn ee

the carpenter and I, and we pushed it with our own bands over the bu] warks. There was a white spout of water, and it was gone. There it lies, the striped chest, 1,000 fathoms deep, and if, as some say, the sea will some day be dry land, I grieve for the man who finds that old box and tries to penetrate into its secret.

A Daring Joker.

Lord Malmesbury used to relate a good story told him by one of Napo- leon’s officers—an incident of the pen- insular campaign.

The French officer was reconnoiter- ing with three or four troopers when they came suddenly upon a young Eng- lish officer similarly occupied, mounted on a superb thoroughbred horse. Sum- moned by the French colonel to sur- render, he quietly cantered away, with a mocking smile on bis face.

The Frenchman, who rode a heavy horse, pursued at fuil gallop. The Eng- lishman allowed him to get quite clese. Then, kissing his hand and leaving him behind, he shouted, pointing to his horse, ‘‘A Norman horse, sir.’’

Again the Frenchman pursued, threat- ening to shoot his enemy if be did not surrender. He went so far as to point a pistol at him, but the weapon missed tire.

With a roar of laughter the young “Englishman shouted again, ‘‘Made at Versailles, sir,’’ and giving the thor- oughbred his head was soon out of sigat.

It was most amusing to hear the old !

colonel tell this story and describe his rage, adding, however, that he had al- ways felt glad that he had not shot ‘‘the brave joker.’’

The Bluejackets’ Revenge,

The unfailing good humor of the Brit- ish bluejacket was shown the othor day when a boat’s load of A. B.’s froma man-of-war were landed for shore leave in a Cornish village.

As they journeyed up the roadway to the second puba gentleman’s wagonette passed, driven by a surly :ocking coach- man, and one of the tars jumped on the step behind.

*‘Git orf there!’’ shouted the coach- man, and being achurlish sort of fellow he Jashed the sailor viciously across the face with his whip. That was encugh.

In an instant the other 11 bives had closed round and stopped the trap, the bo’s’n’s mate in command. ‘‘ ’Ten- tion!’ cried he, and ’tention there was. ‘‘Dismount the guu!’’ be shouted, and it seemed as if every bluejacket car- ried 2 whole carpentei’s outfit. In three minutes they had taken the wagonette into 172 pieces, and that without so much as scratching one bit of paint or losizg ne solitary screw. They laid il ont neatly on the stony road, and the bo’s’n’s mate, ufter inspecting the job, cried: ‘**G@ocod! Dismisa!’’—Lon-

00D HEALTH ror WOMEN

Dr. A. W. Chase’s Nerve Food Re- stores Weak, Sickiy Women to Robust Health.

Any irregularities in the monthly uterine action is sufficien: cause for women to be alarmed about their health. Whether painful, suppressed or profuse menstruation, the cause can be traced to some derangement of the nerves,

A few boxes of Dr. A. W. Chase’s Nerve Food will completely build up the exhausted merves and restore the regular monthly action which removes from the body the clogged mat- ter that would otherwise cause pain and serious disease.

It is as a restorative for pale, weak women that Dr. A. W. Chase’s Nerve Food has been singularly successful. It counteracts the debi- litating diseases peculiar to women by feeding the nerves and creating new nerve fluid, the vital force of the human body.

Dr. A. W. Chase’s Nerve Food has restored scores of hundreds of weak, sickly wornen to robust health. soe. a box at all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., Toronto.
