When all six topsails were mastheaded, and the fore yards laid aback to cant the ship, a jib was started up the stay, and the full gang galloped around the capstan, reeling in the .hawser. • The ship was moving by the time the anchor came underfoot. Then a turn taken in time ripped the light hook rut of the ground, and a short gallop brought it up to the bows, The Orontes was on hpr nay to Batavia. Ike Saintly kicked the Doctor out of his pantry first thing. Then he back, keeping time with his perfect stroke, was not looking round at the ship, He was sometimes glancing over Dral:o's shoulder to catch Mary's eye, but for the greater part of the time he was fixedly regarding Alden Tal- bot Drake himself. And when at last they drew alongside the ship's ladder, he just had to let go his breath. "Mister Adams opened the hail room, sir, to put the prisoners in, and Oats rushed out. He'd been forgotten. He jabbered about getting bitten by rats. He has been, too. He's all chewed up. But he's maddest because the Doctor forgot to feed him since yesterday. Say's he'll skoff the Doctor's liver!

Most men do not wan, a dumbbell for a wife, but they like anent the hearth, one who has, something to contribute to the entertainment; but she must be ever ready to drop all her iutorests and devote herself to her husbantl's whenever they 'come ` into the offing, Men admire beautiful women—at Qat. But they, marry interesting wo- men, sympathetic and kindly women,. iomen'who are good sports anti' do not wear chips 'o, their shoulders. The likable woman Is, adaptable. She file in anywhere, and is easy to get along with. She is interested ilk the things others are interested in and does not rub people's fur the wrong way. The Time Budget .''The housewife who has a sense 01 beingidriven, always behind and un- able to catch up, 'Might arrange her Work to, better advantage by use of the time schedule. You would not think of building a house with a vague idea that the kitchen would be somewhere in this general direction and the parlor in that. Rather you make' a' blue -print specifying the ex- act dimensions of each room, the ma- terials needed, and the. cost. In so vital a natter as one's daily program of }work, it is equally import- ant that you have a definite 'plan. Given twenty-four hours a day, what will you do with them? Make a list of -all the tasks 'which. must be done each day; meals pre- pared; dishes clone; -dare of person, or persons if there are children; straightening up the house, beds to be made, and so on: List tasks to be done only once a week, or twice a week, or once in three weeks or otherwise. Atter each item, write the time it tabes to t10 it. At first this will be merely an estimate. It-nmay be neces- sary to keep records for -a week or two to correct the figures. List the things you want to do and estimate how much time should be allotted to them. Be sure to allow for interruptions, for company, sick- ness, family and neighborly demands. Do not try to cheat yourself nor ex- pect the impossible of yourself. You cannot fool Mother Nature nor Fath- er Time. Now add Your list and eee how much time this program requires and how it fits into the woritini; hours of the day, week, and month. If it requires more time than there is, or more than you can devote to it, •tudy the whole list carefully and see what you can cut out Or cut down. Some tasks you can omit without hurting anything but a habit. Some you can do less often. Some you can delegate to others. For soma "yon can substitute a ready-made product. Sonne you can do mors quickly. Some you can simplify. At any rate you have looked the bugaboo in the face and better man- agement, better contentment, and a wiser' and richer life are certain to result from it. Come with me, and I'll tell you about it" She drew Ike into the saloon by a shirt sleeve, holding one finger to her red lips, making the little Cockney glow with' the feeling that she was. confiding in him. Then she told him, in a vibrant whisper, that Captain Drake and the officers and she had decided that 'Erb had been badgered into desperation, and had killed Tony in sheer terror. He was in the log, and that . could not .be helped. But they all felt sorry for the poor crea- ture, and if Ike would help, and keep silent about it afterwards, they would give 'Erb the chance to run the mo- n,ent the ship docked.- Ike thrilled, He was being made the prime con- spirator in a conspiracy mightily after his own heart. Mary gave him some stoney to pass on to 'Erb, and from that moment 'Erb Oats was as safe as Cockney cunning could make him.

Buying a Rug The duality, of a rug depends upon the kind of material in it, the beauty of its colors, and the thickness of the fabric. Wool and worsted rugs are both wool, but worsted is a little liner. Some rugs are adulterated with Soap and Water jute, which makes the pile stand up, Plants does not wear well and will give Good fir Plants out before the rest of the material. To judge of the durability of a rug, Constant watchfulness is necessary loop at the back and roto the weav- ings which enmesh the wool. The closer together and stronger these are, the longer the rug will wear. There is a quiet dignity about the one -color rug. Footprints show on it, as its pile is pressed, but that is as natural as footprints on a lawn. Oriental rugs are less prohibitive in price than formerly, since large quanties of them are being made in factories in the orient where labor is cheap. They have a soft silkuess and wear so long that they are not an ex- travagance. Their value depends on beauty of design, fastness of color, compactness and evenness of weave, the number of knots to a square inch, and the silk, gold and silver threads used, Navajo rugs, made by the Navajo Indians, and other handmade rugs weitr almost indefinitely and have an individuality and interest all their own, to keep house plants free from in- sects. Most of these insect are small ' and they may not be noticed until the plant is ¶iterully covered. When such a condition develops often the most ' sensible thing to do It to throw the plant away and buya new one. To keep plants free from insects com- mercial products and home remedies are suggested. Plant lice, or aphids, are among the common pests. They are small green insects that reproduce rapidly. A 2 per cent, nicotine dust is the simplest control and within a few ,minutes af- ter the dust has been applied the lice drop from the plant. A solution of one quart of water, one:fourth ounce of soap and one-fourth teaspoonful of nicotine sulphate may be Used as a spray or dip. A teaspoonful of soap chips may be substituted for the soap. The greenhouse white fly attacks geraniums, fuchsias, heliotropes and pot marigolds. The same dust used for aphids may be used, but it is ad- visable to brush up the,hnsects Soon after dusting them and burn them or some may revive and fly back to the plants. The immature forms of white flies are tiny, scale -like creatures, which attach themselves to the under side oC the leaves. To trill them the plant must be sprayed or dipped In some solution. Soap and water, with one quart of water to three-fourths of an ounce et soap is as satisfactory as Anything. .. Boston ferns, fuchsia, Serbsalem cherry, or coleus may show small tufts of cglton-tall material. This substance ha1J been secreted by mealy bugs to protect their eggs and young. A strong force of water from a hose will brsak up the masses and kill the eggs. The bags' also can be brushed off with an old tooth brush. Thered spider is neither a spider nor an insect, but a spinning mite, It thrives in the dry, warm atmosphere of the -living room. A5 :with the mealy bugs it can be washed off the piaut'by a hose or sprayed with leu- 011 oil. - Scale insects 'which attack palms, aspidistra and rubber plant can be controlled by washing the leaves with a sponge dipped In warm, soapy water.
