As I returned over the moors in the evening the wind was blow- ing in short angry puffs, and the western horizon was heaped with sombre clouds which stretched e'their long ragged ten- tacles- right up to the zenith. Against their dark baekground one or two livid sulphur colored splotches showed up ma- lignant andemenacing, while the surface of the sea had changed from the appear - October had broken auspiciously with a bright sun and a cloudless sky. There 'had in the morning been a slight breeze, and a few little white wreathe of vapor drifted here and there like the stuttered feathers of some gigantic bird; but as the day' wore on, such wind as here was fell completely away and the air be- came close and stagnant. The sun blazed down with a degree of heat which seat; ance of burnished quicksilver to that of remarkable so late in the season, and ground glass. A low moaning sound rose a shimmering haze lav upon the upland up from the ocean as if it knew that trouble was in store far it. .Par out in the Channel I saw a single .panting, eager steam veasel making its way, to Belfast Lough, and the large bark which I had observed in the morning ,still beating about in the offing, endeavoring to pass to the northward. At nine o'clock a sharp breeze was blowing; at ten it had fresh- ened into a gale; and before midnight the most furious storm was raging which I can remember upon the weather beaten coast. ' I sat for some time in our small oak - paneled sitting -room listening to the screeching and howling of the blast and to the rattle of the gravel and pebbles as they pattered against the window. Na- ture's grim orchestra; was playing ite world -old piece with a compass which ranged from the -deep diapason of the thundering surge to the thin shriek of the scattered shingle and the keen pip- ing of frightened sea birds. Once for an instant I opened the- lattice• window, but a gust of wind and 'rain came -bluster- ine through, bearing with it a great sheet moors and concealed'. the Irish mountains on the other. side of the Channel. The. sea itself roes and <fell in a long, heavy, oily roll, sweeping elowly landward, and breaking sullenly with a dull, monoton ous booming upon the rock -girt shore. To the inexperienced all seemed calm and peaceful, but to those who are accustomed to read nature's . warnings there was a dark menace in air and sky and sea. My sister and I walked out in the after- noon, sauntering slowly .along the mar- gin of the great sandy spit which shoots out into the Irish Sea, flanking upon one side the magnificent Bay of Luce, and on the other the more obseure inlet of Kirk - maiden, on the shores of which the Branksome property is situated. It was too sultry to go far; so we soon seated ourselves upon one of the sandy hillocks, overgrown with faded grass -tufts, which extended along the coast line, and which from nature's dykes against the en- croachment of the ocean. Our rest was, soon interrupted by the scrunching of heavy boots upon the shingle; and Jamie- son, the old man -o' -war's -man whom.

My sister cular net upon his back which he used and my father had retired to their rooms, but my thoughts were too active for sleep, so I continued to sit and smoke by the smoldering fire. What was going on in the hall now, I wondered? What did Gabriel think of the storm, and how did• it affect the old man who wandered about in the 'night? Did hewelcome these dread forces of nature as being of the eame or- der of thingsas his' own tumultuous thoughts? It was only four days now from the date which I liad been assured was to mark a Crista in his fortunes.

"I aye make a good catch before a storm," he remarked. "You think there is going to be a storm, then?" I asked. "Why, even a marine could see that," he answered, sticking a great wedge of tobacco into his cheek: "The moors over near Cloomber are just white wi' gulls and kittiewakes.

The poor 'wretches had evidently taken fresh, hope from our presence,. though it was clear. that their own boats had either been washed away or so dams, aged as to render them useless. The sailors who clung to the rigging were not, however, the only unfortunates aboard, On the breaking poop there stood three men who appeared to be both of ea deferent, race and nature from the cow- ering wretches who implored our assist-. ance. Leaning upon the shattered tall - rail they seemed to be converging together: as Quietly and unconcernedly as though they were unconecious of the deadly peril whieh surrounded them. As the signal light flickered over them we could pee from the shore that these. •immutable s rangers wore red fozea, . and that their faces were all Of a swarthy, large featured type, whioh proclaimed an Eastern origin. There was little time, however, for us to take note oX such details. The ship was breaking rapidly, and: soave effort must be wade to save the poor sodden group of humanity who implored our assistance. The nearest lifeboat was iu the Bay of Luce, ten miles away, but here was: our own broad, 'roomy craft upon the 'shingle, and plenty of bravo fisher lade to edam a crew. Six of es sprang to the oars, the ethers pushed us off, and wefought our way through the swirling, raging, waters, staggering and recoiling before the great sweeping billows, but still' steadily de- oreaeing the distance between the bark and _ ourselves. Itseemed,, however,that our efforts. were 'fated to be in vain. As we -mounted woos a surge I saw a 'giant wave,e'topping all the others, :and coming after them like a driver following a flock, sweep down up- on the vessel, curling her great green, arch over the breaking deck.

The dealer • who adulterates fisheries. The eaplin os oapolin is a lois seed' bases his faith in the; suc- cess of the deception upon the very careless examination made or the absence of any examination of the seedby the average purchaser, in eluding the majority of retail deal- ers, If, before purchasing, a care- ful examination of the stied offered for sale was made by all buyers guided by a-k.nowiedge of the, vari- ous adulterants used, seed adulter- ation would scion cease. , The combination of seeds of stan- dard farm crops commanding uni- formly different prices in the seed market constitutes adulteration when the. mixture is sold at the price of the more expensive seed. This is illustrated by the combina- tion of redtop 'and timothy offered as- redtop. Another form of 'adulteration' is the rise of dead seed of the kind 'of- fered for sale. Such 'dead seed. may have lost its vitality from advanced age or from unfavorable conditions of harvesting or of storage, or it may consist of light screenings in which the seed germs never devel- oped. Old seed having very low vitality, or none at all, doubtless is often offered for sale. Consid- erable• worthless shriveled red ,clo- ver and alfalfa screenings are im- ported each year for use in adul- terating these seeds, One of the commonest and most objectionable forms of adulterations is the use of low grade screenings, consisting chiefly of miscellaneous weed seeds. In many instances such adulterants have been pur- chased in foreign countries. The statement, often made, that low grade weedy screenings are im- ported for the purpose of 'reclean- ing before being marketed is with- out foundation because the gtian tity of good seed•, to be ;!secured would cost the dealer more, usual- ly very much more than the same quantity of good seed;` produced in. this country. Such low grade seed,; therefore, is unquestionably im- ported exclusively for .. use either in competition' with or as an adulter- ant of -higher grade seed. • Cow Drags Boy to Death.

An instance of this has been.re- cently reported.

The boy's attention was at- tracted to the auto, and he was not prepared for the sudden jerk given by the cow. A•: loop in the rope was around his wrist, and he could` not -get loose.

Nixed Stock Farming. As -a rule, on the average farm at :;least, it will be better to have a few cattle, same horses, a score of swine and small flock of sheep" than to have the same amount of money invested in . either cattle or hogs alone. There is greater safety in such distribution of capital, inas- much nas m ch as the different kinds. of stock subsist somewhat on different kinds of food, and if on account of drou,th or for some other reason one kind of food fails, others' may be made available to carry through in good condition at least one or more of the classes of animals kept. sI' They Own Britain's Land.
