But Hene Are Two Exceptions
When after suffering tivo years with
what was called appendicitis Mr John
Boland of 219 No 19th street Omaha
was told by the leading physicians and
surgeons of Nebraska that he would
have to undergo an operation and have
a part of his anatomy removed he
formally bid farewell to the world and
all he knew for he had known of oth
ers who had traveled the same dan
gerous road Just before he submitted
to the operation he met a friend who
suggested that he try the new treat
ment Magnetic Osteopathy He said
he would not take the treatment but
would consult with Prof lyharas and
see what he would do later Prof
Kharas as the originator of this new
science of curing diseases without
drugs feels the responsibility of life
and death cases so he examined Mr
Boland carefully told him he had no
appendicitis at alL His trouble proved
to be simply a nervo muscular stric
ture of the small intestine duodenum
The professor so accurately described
-the difference between the actual ex
isting condition and an appendicltal
condition that Mr Boland saw he had
been humbugged by the medical and
surgical practitioners and took a
weeks treatment costing him 5 at
the Kharas Headquarters in Omaha
and is now sound and well and hard
at work He is loud and enthusiastic in
praise of Magnetic Osteopathy and the
Kharas System He realizes that he
would probably have been a burled
mistake if he had followed the advice
of the surgeons for they very much
dislike to have their mistakes come to
light and when they chop into a mans
works and see that they were off
there Is only one way to prevent the
world from knowing the result The
patient failed to rally from the opera
tion as we expected etc Every day
we read of their mistakes
Miss Kit Distelhorst was expecting
to go to the hospital for an operation
the following day when a relative
gestea mat sne see rvnuriis one uiur
The operation would have cost her
200 besides had it been successful
the loss of two very important parts
of her anatomy and the surgeons gave
her very very little hope for recovering
from the operation at all As a result
of her coming to Prof Kharas she is
now sound and well She took six
weeks treatment spent 30 and is as
she aptly expresses it all in one
piece yet This mention of her name
is made with her express consent and
fshe will gladly inform any inquirer of
the truth of the statement who will
write her at her home 2011 Cass street

CAINE
After that the watch had been chang
ed dEnd then a strange thing had hap
pened The day had been heavy and
cold with a sky that hung low over
the sea and a mist that reduced the
visible globe to a circle of fifty fath
oms wide As the night had closed in
the mist had lifted and the wind had
risen and some sheets of- water had
come combing over the weather quar
ter The men had been turned up to
stow the yards and bring the schooner
to the wind and when they had gone
below they had been wet and miserable
chewing doggedly at the tobacco in
their cheeks and growling atthe dark
ness of the forecastle for the slush
lamp had not yet been lighted And
just then above the muttered curses
the tramping of heavy boots and the
swish of oilskins that were being sha
ken to drain them- there arose the
sweet song of a bird It was Jasons
canary singing in the dark corner of
his bunk a foot above his head for
on coming below the lad had thrown
himself down in his wet clothes The
growling came to an end and the
shuffling of feet stopped and the men
paused a moment to listen and thenv
burst into peals of daughter But the
bird gave no need either to their si
lence or their noise but sang on with
a full throat And the men listened
and then laughed again and then sud
denly ceased to laugh t A match was
struck and the slush lamp began to
gleam out over mahogany faces that
looked at each other with eyes of awe
The men shook out their coats and
hung them over the stanchions Still
the bird sang on It was uncanny this
strange singing in the darkness The
men charged their cuddies fired up
and crouched together as they smoked
Still the bird sang on
Och its the divil in the craythur
safd one you go bail theres a storm
brewin Its just ould Harry himself
rejicing
Then by St Patrick Ill screw the
neck of him said another
Aisy man aisy said old Davy
its the lads
The ladbe said the other and
up he jumped Jason saw the man
coming towards his bunk and laid hold
of the wrist of the arm that he stretch
ed over it
Stop that said Jason but the lad
jvas on his back and in an instant the
aian had thrown hi body on top of
aim leaned over him and wrenched
Dpen the door of the cage The- song
stopped there was a short rustle of
wings a slight chirp chirp and then a
moments silence followed by the mans
fight laugh as he draw back with the
little yellow bird dangling by the neck
from his black thumb and forefinger
But before the great hulking fellow
had twisted about to where his mates
sat and smoked under the lamp Jason
had leapt from his bunk stuck his fist
into the ruffians throat and pinned him
against a beam
you he cried thrusting his
face into the mans face shall I kill
you after it
Help My God help the -man gur
gled out witn Jasons knuckles ground
hard into his windpipe
The others were in no hurry to in
terfere but they shambled up at length
and amid shouts and growls of Let
go Let go the hoult and Gods
sake slack the grip the two were
parted Then the man who hadkilled
the bird went off puffing and cursing
that came from his weak stomach while
old Davy Kerruish went over to Jason
to comfort him
Sarve him right the craythur said
Davy Hes half dead but thats just
half too much life in him yet though
Its what Ive tduld them times on
times Lave him alone says I the
lads quiet but hell be coorse enough
if hes bothered And my gough boy
what a face at ye yander when ye
Were twissin the handkercher at him
Aw thinks I hes the spittin picsher
of the big widda man Orry Stephen
Orry brimstone and vinegar and gun
powder atop of a slow fire
And it was at that moment as old
Davy was laughing through his yellow
eyes and broken teeth at young Jason
and the other men were laughing at
Jasons adversary and the dim fore
castle under its spluttering slush lamp
echoed and rang with the uproar that
a wild voige came down from the deck
Below there All hands up Breakers
ahead N

had been changed had been the very J

moment when Stephen Orry had run
down the lamp so that neither by the
Manxman who gave up the helm nor
by the Irishman who took It had the
light been missed when it fell into the
sea And the moment when Stephen
Orry shbuted to the schooner to warn
it had been the moment when the muf
fled peals of laughter at the birds
stranee song had come up from the
watch below in the forecastle The
wind had whistled among the sheets
and the flying spray had sntftten the
mens faces but though the mist bad
lifted the sky had still hung low and
dark showing neither moon nor stars
nor any hint of the land that lay
ahead But straight for the land the
vessel had been driving in the dark
ness under the power of wind and tide
After a time the helmsman had sight
ed a solitary light close in on the lee
bow Point of Ayre he thought and
luffed off a little intending to beat
down the middle of the bay It had
been the light on the jetty at Ramsey
and the little tpwn behind it with its
back to the sea lay dark and asleep
for the night was then well worn to
wards midnight Ramsey he thought
and put his helm aport But suddenly
the man on the lookout had shouted
Breakers ahead and the cry had
been sent down the forecastle
In an instant all hands were on deck
amid the distraction and uproar the
shouting and blind groping ot the cruel
darkness Against the dark sky the
yet darker land could iow be plainly
seen and a strong tide was driving
the vessel on to it The helm was put
hard to starboard and the schooners
head began to pay off towards the
wind Then all at once it was seen
that right under the vessels bow some
black thing lay just above the level ot
the sea with a fringe of white foam
around it
Davy what do you make of it
shouted the skipper
Lord aUmassyj tits the Carick
screamed Davy
Let go the anchor roared the skip
per
But it was too late even for that last
refuge At the next moment the
schooner struck heavily she was on
the reef in Ramsey Bay and pitching
miserably with every heave of the sea
The two v bright lights that led the
vessel to her ruin came from the two
little bays that lie under Maughold
head The light in was
in the hut of Stephen Orry who had lit
his lamp and placed -it in the window
when he went out to bid farewell to
Michael Sunlocks thinking no evil
thereby to any man but only that it
would guide him home again when he
should return in the boat The light
in Port Lague was from the cottage of
three oldnet weavers who had lived
there without woman or girl or chick
or child through more than forty years
Two or three were brothers Danny and
Jemmy Kewley both over seventy
years old and their housemate who
was ninety and had been a companion
of their father was known as Juan Mc
Lady Danny and Jemmy still worked
at the looms year in and year out
every working hour of the day and
night and Juan long past any other
labor cooked and sewed and cleaned
for them All three had grown dim of
sight and now groped about like three
old earthworms Every year for five
years past they had needed anextra
candle to work by so that eight tallbw
dips made in their own iron mould
swung from the open roof rafters over
the meshes on that night when the
Peveril struck the Carick
It was supper time though old Danny
and old Jemmy wee still at the looms
Old Juan washed out a bowl of rotatoes
and filled the pot with them hung them
on the chimney hooks and stirred tht
peats Then to make them boil the
quicker he had gone out with the tong
to the side of the house for some dry
gorse from the gorse heap While there
he had peered through the darkness oi
the bay for the light on the Point ol
Ayre and had missed it and on going
back he had said
Its out again Thats the third
time inside a month Ill go bail some
thing will happen yet
He had got no answer and so sat
down on the three legged stool to feed
the fire with gorse lifted on the tongs
Whep the notatoes had boiled he had
between his chattering teeth and his carried them to the door to drain them
mates began to laugh at the big words ana then with the click clack of the
levers behind him he had thought ht
heard over the deem boom and plash
of the sea in front a voice like a cry
Going indoors he had said Plague on
the water bailiff and commissioners and
kays and councils Ill go bail theres
smuggling going on under their vdry
noses Id have the law on the lot of
them so I would-
Old Danny and old Jemmy knew the
temper of their housemate that he was
neverhappy save when he had some
body to higgle with s6 they paid no
heed to his mutterings But when
Juan having set the potatoes to steam
with a rag- spread over them went out
fort the salt herrings to where they
hung to dry ona stick against the sun
ny side of the porch he was sure that
above the click of the levers the boom
and plash of the sea and the whistle of
the wind he could hear a clamorous
shout of many voices like a wild cry of
distress Then he hobbled back with
a wizened face of deadly pallor and
told what he had heard and the shut
tles were stopped and there was si
lence in the little house
It went by roe same an the
said old Juan
Maybe it was the nightman

old Danny - -
At that old Jemmy nodded hfs issfi
very gravely and old Juan held cat to
the lever handles and through
precious mlntes when the crew of
schooner were fighting in the grip C
death in the darkness these throe aa
man their nearest fellow creatures 5a2f
dead half blind were held in the gtSp
of superstitious fears
There again tcrled old Juan ao
through the door that he had left cjeo
the cry came In above roar of wind assfi
