a A Lighthouse Keeper's Comptiaint. Lighthouse keepers do not seem to feel their lonely life. I once spent a week oD Scotland lightship, mear the entrance to New York harbor. The as- ¢ keeper was in charge, and he was pearly stone deaf. He bad not been ashore for three months, and even a newspaper came to him only by chance from time to time, when a pilot boat stopped by on her way out of the har- por. From sunrise until 9 o'clock at pight he did little else but sit on a hatchway, smoking an old pipe and ing reflectively at the great harbor peeiving and dismissing its thousands of vessel. One day he asked me to use py influense to get him tyansferred to gape Cod. I asked him why he wished chabge. Om Well,” said be very seriously, ‘‘I gant a quieter station. It’s too lively pere. I waut to be where there ig less ing op.’’—Lieutenant John M. Bili- got in St. Nicholas.
