In the old days nearly all of a yacht's -rigging was hensp, but in our modern rac- ing craft very little hemp rope is .used. Not only the standing rigging, but a great part of the running. is steel wire rope. Only the ropes that have to be pulled on with hands, like sheets -ropes that trim the sails -are made of heinp. This Is be- cause steel is not only .stronger, but it does not stretch like cord made of fiber. - Home Magazine. , sisterly Sympathy. Gwendolen -How late you are, dear!

He had a chum named Dan Sutton,. whe was almost as reckless as and I have seen him and Dick play Catch OlttOY tizne with cans of glycerin they were un- loading, the dropping of one of which to the ground would have more than likely wiped out ,of existence every .persoa around the well, "It got so that whene'ver-Diek Warner had a load of nttroglycerin to unload at the well everybody else, except Dan Out - ton, took to the woods and staid there until the stuff was out of their .custody. Once 'Devil Dick' held a great, can of nitroglycerin above his head and let it drunken driller named Patterson throw ten stones at it frotu a distance of 80 feet on a bet of *20 that he couldn't hit the ean once -out of the ten times. This was at Roan's camp, and the whole camp watched the insane proceeding from safe distances on the hill. One of the stones hit Dick on the arm, not two inches be- low the can, and knocked it out of •his hand.. He caut the can, though, before It reached the ground or the throwing match would have ended there and then, with the burial of such bite of Dick and the driller as could be found, and they would have been exceediugly few. and small, The driller eame close to the can several times during the trial, but failed to hit it, and Dick won his bet. s "In those days the woods all through the oil regions were full of wild animal, and, it wasn't an uncommon sight to see a bear or a Canada lynx or a catamount prowling round the camps or, Isolated oil villages, The lynx was frequently very aggressive and bold, and it was greatly feared by the drillers and others at. the wells: More than once men had been attacked by lynxes, and James Carker, a pumper, was et. badly hurt in fighting off one that had jurnped--frotu-sestreamoop him as he.was driving through a piece of woods that be died of his injuries.
