THE STORY OF A STRANGE MISSION TO A DESERT ISLAND. In the Queer Business Figured a Big Coin and a Dead Chinese Manda- rin Who May Not Have Been a Dead Chinaman After All, “I've spent a good many years round these islands,” said the night watch on a yacht in the Santa Barbara channel, “and I’ve had some singular experiences. Last winter I spent in Santa Barbara, only coming to the island occasionally. One day a Chinaman came to my lodg- ings and asked me if I knew San Nico- las, the bleakest and windiest of all the California islands. I said I did. “*You know mandalin? he asked. ‘Lung Kow allee samee mandalin; he go San Nicolas; allee samee dead man, You sabe?’ “In short, the Chinaman was a4 repre- sentative of the Six Companies of San Francisco, and the mandarin, Lung Kow, had taken a trip for his health to the island with a party of abalone hunters and had died on the desolate spot. He was a big man, and so a delegation of Chiaamen had been sent to Santa Bar- bara to charter a vessel to go to San Nicolas to bring him to mainland. We soon struck a bargain and set sail. The island lies well out to sea, where it blows half a gale nearly all the time, and there » safe harbors. My schooner was a ittle fore and after, with a small cock- pit and cabin, which just about held the four Chinamen, while cross deck, amid- they stowed a bronze coffin. The men, as near as I could make ovt, seemed to be priests of rank and went on regular watch duty from the time started. They crowded into the cabin and lit their kept all the way over As soon as we got under sail one are mt itt! ships, they pipes an them going ~ ; ’ ee of papel to the au net ‘ something in Chines ‘This was YSPEPSIA Throws all the Blame on the Stomach—The Real Seat of Trouble is the Intestines— The Permanent Cure is Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills. It is an old idea long since exploded that digestion is confined to the stomach, No modern scientist denies that by far the greater part of digestion and the more difficult part takes place in the intestines. This explains why dyspepsia is never really cured by pre- parations which merely aid stomach digestion and act only on the’stomach. This fact alsc explains why Dr. Chase’s Kid- ney-Liver Pills have been so remarkably suc- cessful as a cure for the worst forms of dyspep- sia and indigestion. Dr, Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills act directly on the /ridneys, liver and bowels, and give new tone and vigor to the intestines, and make them able to perform their work of digesting the substances on which the stomach has no effect. Stomach treatment may do well enough for slight indigestion, but if you have chronic in- digestion or dyspepsia of a serious nature you can profit by the experience of scores of thou- sands who have been permanently cured by using Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills.

Chemists, Toronta, j ——_—_—_ ———s as ther? Was a cove anda sanay peacn,. The Chinamen had brought one of their boats, a clumsy affair, and we all put off in her with the heavy coffin Iashed to the seats. The sea was still high, and while we rowed the Chinamen threw pa- per and waved their punk sticks. I was looking for trouble, and just as we reached the narrow channel the sea drop- ped away from the bow, the stern flew up in the air, and a big wave struck the flat bottom of the boat, seuding her stern over bow into the cove, and spilling every one into the water. When the China- men recovered from their fright they rushed for the boat, and, hauling her up, unfastened the coffin and laid it on the beach. The abalone hunters met us, and there was more bowing and more punk burned, and then the men took the coffin on their shoulders and we followed the abalone hunters. Well, my partner and I teok turns at carrying the coftin with the Chinamen, and for several miles followed the aba- lone men over the hills and sand to a re- oe out. Now came the funny part of it. Naturally you would think they would do all the work of taking up the body, but they indicated that they expected us to do it, and as we had been paid to do the work there was no backing out. The Chinamen thrust lighted punk in the sand all about and went through many gesticulations while we dug. The Man- darin had simply been laid in the sand with his robes about him and his red- buttoned hat on. We got him up, put him in the coffin and bolted it down, Then the Chinamen threw hendfuls of papers in the air, uttering cries and bow- ing to the body, to the east and west. “We finally got the coffin triced to two long poles and began the march back. I’ve taken some hard and curious:-tramps in my time, but that discounted them all, The Chinamen were thoroughly frighten- ed—you know they think the wind is a living thing, and when it began to howl and roar and fill the air with stones and dirt they would stop and point at the biack fog bank that looked like a big dragon, then start off again, plewing through the drifting sand, sometimes al- most losing sight of the guide ahead. Finally we reached the beach. The yacht was lying on the edge of the kelp, about 200 yards off shore and riding on a pretty good swell that set in from the west, but the junkboat came in all right and we banled her up, high and dry. “Remembering their experience, the Chinamen wanted ws to wait until the sea went down; but we explained that there was always a sea running, so they consented to try it. They evidently were determined to take no chances, as they first placed the heavy coflin, now heavier thin ever, amidships, and lashed it in, then put my partner and me at the oars, while the dead Chinaman took his place in the boat with his hand on the coffin. After much excitement we got the cof- fin in the falls and landed it on deck, putting it across the house. That night the only dry place was the coffin, so I piled my blankets on top of it and was fast asleep on top of the Mandarin when I felt some one pulling at me and found the whole party about me. They had a soit of hourly service and had formed in a procession in the cockpit, and, when they reached the cofiin, were horrified to find me there. Their peculiar rites were kept up during the entire trip, and it was months before we got rid of the smell of opium and punk. The body was shipped to San Francisco under the same guard.” “And that was the last of Lung Kew?” asked one of the yachtsmen. “I don’t know about that,” replied the sailor. “The next week we saw in a San Francisco paper that a lot of smug- Stewart & Gates | Sanderson & Co.
