came on business to • shipowner's. Oa
life was restricted, as we lived under-
ground, and only appeared upstairs after
uhioe hours. You can fancy what a
change I found it when he took me away
to his seaside home at Murders, in North
Devon, where he was coeatguard. I find
aaw the sea 1n September, when a gale
blew. I shall never forget what I felt
when Hal put his arm around my waist
and led we along a jagged path to a point
where we overlooked the Mort Rosk.
The waves were rolling inwards like
heaving mountains, which tried their
strength agataat ire curt dies*
then gathered themselves tgether again

thunder.
Was this the sea of which Hal had
said that it laughed in the sunshine, and
sang soft melodies when the moon lit a
track of light to the heavens above 1 He
had spoken of the joy of • fresh breeze
and a full sail when the Petrel skimmed
the waters more lightly than its name-
sake ; and now he showed me this --this
awful seething deep, where brave nate
perished and left their wives to woep.
"Oh, Hal !" 1 cried, "1 shall never
dare to let you set sail on that dreadful
sea. I shall not know a happy moment
while you are abroad in such danger."
Experience, however, made me brave.
Many times Hal faced the terrors of the
deep in his performance of duty, and
God gave him back to me unharmed. I

—yes, every one of them, for they were
all boys.
The September gala had not harmed
is. during twelve years. Other wives
on that dangerous coast had cause to re-
member them with grief, but God per-
mitted us to tread • prosperous path
heavenward, and our earthly home was
unbroken while we together strove to
prepare ;for a more abiding one, when
"there shall be nu more sea."
But there came a day when my first
dread of it returned, reinforced by a
mother's fears as well as wife's. Hal had
started out betimes, taking our eldest
boy with him in his own boat. They
bad put off from a cr.ek dose by, crept
round the point, and made towards
'Welchem, where they had set lobster
pots, and then intended to put in to Lea,
where they hoped to sell their lobsters
to the visitors who crowd that hale
place during the autumn season.
I was busy at home all day. The wind
blew fresh and the wares broke heavily
though 1 did not heed them. Erenin
closed in, but father and the child did
not come. The -wind rose t, • gale, an
the waves broke like turbulent giants.
Later on the neighbors came in and ask
ed whether Hal had returned, and on
went in to Lea but came back without
tidings.
Oh, that weary night when I waited
and watched alone
At the first streak of dawn I woke
Dick, my second boy, and together we
braced the gal. and foukht our way to
Les -tate only place where it would be
possible for haat to run in. How
quiet the little harbor looked ! How
safely anchored the one ship which lay
i a)port.
Nei a soul was astir but Dick and me.
We stood in the shelter of the trader
and looked yearningly for those for
whom es
we waited. The sun rose rose,
and still we waited, The village awak-

Trifa make the sum of life, it is said;
certainly they do of life in the kitchen

her skill and knowledge of detail knows
bow to save any fraction of the sum al -
1 reel her for house keeping is really
one who brings more happiness into the
dwelling than the wife whom income
doubles her husband's. This skill and
knowledge are the portion of every wife
whose mother has taught her to observe
the seemingly trivial things of good
lamaskeeping, the minor details of daily
living. And whoever bee thew little
things at command will find them a men
integral part of family happiness than
familiarity with the differential calculus
is. And although Greek and Anglo -

A charming family betel was built in

was finished with all modern oonveniene

vents before getting into communica-
tion with the family she came to see ;
there were fire escapes mod telephosea
and elevators and speaking tubes, and,
for aught I know. safety valva and sub-
marine cables. But the erownirg j:;y of
all was the fact that no children were a1 -
lowed within Its welts. It was built for
the accommodation of childless couples,
and to ten childless couples, war. the
Suiten let. How wrest was the gwiet
and calm of that sheltered retreat, metal

stillness ! Horror and indignation es
the part of nice guiltless couples ; s0d
yet, s weak is bemauity, that before
the end ,f the second year then were
children in seven of the les families.
The childless young couples were cbild-
less no more, and when the ower of the
building complained to his friends of the

hands of bia tensest' they all laughed in
his face and advised him to let apart-
ments to bachelors.

Tho good housewife is often at a loos
to know how best to put up better in
the summer months for to or for sale
at a meson of the year when it cora-
mends the highest price in market. To
do this then am two modes which are
said to be equally effective, the one be-
ing t, work the butter over gently and
salt it as soon as taken from the churn,
when it is ,nada into pound prints, or
even into Ixrge rolls, and after wrapping
the same in clean mishit cloths It is
placed in large crocks or jars filled with
brine, and then Iroperly weight.] down
to keep it completely submerged. When
nosey to send to market, it is then taken
out, and either sent to the grocer or sold
in open market, as may be preferred.
No fears need be entertained that butter
so managed will absorb any additional
moisture. Being completely surround-
ed with the brine. no air can come in
contact with it, and it can thus be pre-
served comparatively fresh and sweet
the better pert of the year.
