‘‘Do you think there’s much danger, Mr. McTodd?’’ says she.

‘*They’ve just a wee sting to them if they get upon your hands,”’ said L ‘‘But there’s no need to touch them.

| You can just gratify your eyes, and then

| we will fling them overboard again.

They’re no beauties that you’d care to keep and take home with you, likea

| ‘What do you mean?" says she.

| ‘I’m talking of these Portuguese

' men-o’-war.”’

She put her hand upon my arm, and

was as white as paper, saving for black | rings under the eyes. ‘‘I beg your par- | don, Mr. McTodd, for being so inat- tentive. I’m afraid my thoughts are under the sea instead of on top of it. | Is this diving very dangerous work? | Their air tubes might get entangled.”’

**They’re too old hands to let them foul.”’

“Or they may get swept away by currents. ’’

‘‘Their life lines will keep them in tow.’”’

“Or sharks.”

*‘Sharks are always feared at divers, Miss Bradbury. No, miss, you may be- lieve me, those two men are as safe down at work below as yon are here, or safer, seeing that they can’t get sun- stroke, and you very likely will if you stay here away from the awnings with no hat on.”’

She shivered, and thanked me, and went away into the shade, and I turned again and watched the boats and the two moving patches of muddied water which they were following. It struck me at the moment that the Steamship Corinth Salvage association were put- ting a vast deal of trust inthe two men whom they employed as their divers— £270,000 worth of gold is a very vast bulk of wealth for poor men to be near.

They did not find the wreck that day or the next. Indeed not till a week had passed did they come across her, and then they found that she had settled on her broadside into a little gulley on the

silt over her till she was almost coverea out of sight. They buoyed her when she was found and that day I went off in Cameron’s boat and tried to see if I could make her out from above. But she lay in 16 fathoms, and the water was gray with mud from them working below. Looking down into it was like peering through a mist.

The Gleaner swung at her anchor over the western ocean swells, and the sun bleached her awnings to the white- ness of new fallen snow. For myself, but for one thing, I never had such an easy time on full pay during all my seagoing. There was no work todo. A lot of grog was served out, coast fash- ion, at eight bells, and the slop chest tobacco burnt. slowly and cost only 2

A man may talk of disdaining physical strength and prowess unti) Doomsday, but the fact remains that he cannot look at a picture of an old-time knight, magnifi- cent in his physical pro- portions, dauntless ia his physical courage, and armed, ready and eager for a contest to the death with any comer, without a thrill of admiration. Mental

J al superior- ity is desirable and admirable,

but is the ‘“‘game Yworth the can- dle,”’? when it is won at the ex ense of phys- ical health and strength ?

The unhealthy Vinan may gain the pity and even the admiration of men and women, but it is a question whether such a man ever thoroughly gains their respect. The man whose arteries bound with the rich, red blood of health carries with him a force and an intensity that command re- spect, even though he be slightly inferior mentally to the weak, nervous man. While mo medicine in the world will add an inck to a man’s stature, there is one famous medicine that will fill the veins and arte- ries with the rich, red, bounding blood of

erfect health. It is Dr. Pierce’s Golden

fedical Discovery. It is the great blood- maker and blood-purifier. When the blood is pure and rich and red and plenty, and filled with the life-giving elements that pourish every tissue of the body, it is im- possible for a man to suffer from ill-health of any description. When every little blood-vessel in the lungs quivers with the rush of healthy blood, it is impossible to have unhealthy lungs. When the walls of the stomach are nourished with healthy blood, dyspepsia and indigestion are im- possibilities. When the liver is supplied with healthy blood it is bound to be active. The skin that is nourished with healthy biood will be clear and fresh and td with health. ‘‘ Discovery’’ is sold by druggists.

land Co., N. Y., writes: ‘‘ For three years I suf- fered from that terrible disease, consumption, I

must say the way that he and the other

diver worked was a caution. Oj

the water was warm, but it was fairish deep. and I never saw men stay down longer They never seemed to ; ive in

while they had strength left to lifta hand, and when they came to the sur- face and had their gear taken off they'd be almost fainting with weariness what they’d gone through. And it was not a one day occurrence either. They were always the same, and the weeks

from

slipped away till they had run intoa |

month, and still none of the gold had been brought to the Gleaner.

The silt was the trouble, it seemed. As fast as they dug it cnt just so fast did it slide down again into the steam- er’s bowels, and the strong room, which lay right down against her keel, could not be come at. Of course one under- stood that Camerbdn’s reputation de- pended upon his bringing off this sal- vage job successfully, but I don’t see the force of a man killing himself, and I told him so more than once. I fancied ' at the time that Miss Bradbury was telling him the same every day. But he didn’t take any notice of either of us, nor did Storey, the other diver, and the pair of them just worked theniselves to rags.

A stopper was put on their game, however, in a way they did not expect. The steward brought word one morning that the captain wanted to see me, and

turned out of my bunk and went on deck. He seemed in a bit of a worry.

‘‘Mr. Storey’s had a stroke,’’ says he.

“I’ve told that man a dozen times ta take drugs, sir,’’ said I, ‘‘and he never would.’’

‘‘Drugs are all very well for us, Mac,”’ says he, ‘‘that have ordinary stomachs, but drugs wouldn’t have saved Storey what he’s got, and that’s paralysis.”’

“*My certie!’’ said L °

‘It’s true,’’ said the old man. ‘‘It took him while he was in the boat. Cameron had just gone down and Storey was going to follow when he was seized. They took off his helmet and brought him back here, and he’s down in his room now with half of him dead and no speech left.

‘It’s a complaint, I’ve heard, that often does seize divers.”’

**It does if they stick to the trade too Well, Mac, I’m wanting some one to take his place, and I give you first offer. It'll mean £5 a week above and beyond your present pay, and there’s nothing to hinder your earning —

‘‘Nothing that I see, sir. Storey and I are just in a build and I can wear his sujt.’’

‘“‘Very well, then, just give me your hand for half a minute and look me in the eye.’’

I did that.

‘“‘Now,’’ said he, ‘‘yon’rea servant of the Corinth Salvage asscciation, and I’m another. Your father was a gentle- man, wasn’t he?’’

‘‘He was that, sir, and one of the most honored Free kirk ministers in Scotland.”’

‘“‘Then you must be a gentleman, too, though I dare say you are not always treated assuch. Now swear to me, Mac, on your honor, as a gentleman, that you'll be true to those that are employ- ing you.’”’

I Jooked at him in the faceand did it cheerfully. When a man treats me properly (and God knows few enough of them have tried it) he’s got a fellow to work for bim he ought to value highly.

I got into the suit as the boat rowed me out to the buoy, and when we pick- ed up the mcoring the men screwed on the helmet for me and started the air pump. It wasn’t a new experience to nie; I’d been diving before in the Clyde to bore holes into a sunken pier with a ratchet drill.

I went over the side, took the rope

and lowered myself hand over fist throttgh the gray water till the leaden soles on my feet touched ground. The corky feeling was a bit new again at first, but I soon got over that, and then, as my air valves were working all right, and I could breathe quite easily, I set about looking for Cameron. He was somewhere out of sight, but his air tube was lying on the mud among the sea shrubs, like a thin white eel, and I followed that eastly enough.

It led me to the Corinth, where she lay with her decks straight up and down, and I saw it passing away throngh the watery blackness down her companion hatch. There seemed some- thing wrong here. Where were all the great moving banks of slime the divers had told us about? Where was the filthy ooze which slid back against the steam- er as fast as they dug it away? Slime there was in plenty, I sank in it knee deep in spite of the buoyancy of the suit, but it was quite manageable, and the Corinth’s companion lay far above its mark. A rope lay against the up- right deck beside the white air tube. I

thought a minute and then laid hold

The first step landed me on something that crunched, I[ looked down and saw it was a suit of bones, skimmed clean by the fishes. Some poor wretch had been drowned here when the steamer foundered. Well, of course, I had seen a skeleton before, but somehow or other those bones didn’t seem to cheer me. There was something wrong. The yarn the divers had bronght up and the real | thing as it lay were two entirely differ- | ent matters. It occurred to me that I | had stumbled (by the accident of Storey’s paralysis) upon something in- tended to be hid, and I was quite man

I stopped where I was and thought. I’d a big mind to go back then and re- port what I had seen. I felt I should be earning my pay by doing that. But at

a fellow countryman and more besides, and I didn’t want to report him as act- ing off the square, so I stoutened my cart and went on down below.
