performance.
Johansbn called out to Harrison to
teo out tho halyards. Tho Ghost was

of tho galley.
"IL'b a ohamo," I heard Johnson
growling in painfully alow and correct
English. Ho was standing by tho main
rigging, a fow foot away from mo.
"Tho boy is willing onpugh. Ho will
learn If ho has a chance. Dut this
is" Ho paused awhllo, for tho word
"murder" was his final judginont.
"HlBt, will ye!" Louis whlaporod to

It took Harrison fully ton minutes
(to got started again. A llttlo later, ho
pnado tho end of tho gaff, whoro,
Wrldo tho spar Itself, ho cloarod tho
jflhoet, and waB froo to return. Dut ho
jliad lost his nerve. Johanson called
vainly for him to como down. At any
tmomcnt ho was liablo to bo snapped
off tho gaff, but ho was holploss with
fright. Wolf Larson, walking up and
(down Willi Smoko and in conversation,
took no moro notice of him, though ho
cried sharply onco to tho man at tho
whoel:
I "You're off your course, my man I

t "Ay, ay, sir," tho helmsman respond

He had boon guilty of running tho
Ghost Bovorai points off her courso In
(order that what llttlo wind thoro was
.'should fill tho foresail and hold It
(steady. Ho had Btrlven to holp tho
Junforturiato Harrison nt tho risk of
Incurring Wolf Larson's anger.
Fully half an hour went by, and
boa I saw Johnson and Louis In somo
crt of nltorcatlon. It ended with
Johnson flinging off Louis detaining
Crm and starting forward. Ho crossed
he dock, sprang Into tho foro rigging,
land bogan to climb. Dut tho quick
)yo of Wolf Larson caught him.
"Hero, you. what aro you up to?" he
arled.
Johnson's ascent was arrested. He
looked his captain In tho eyes and
Implied slowly;
"I am going to got that boy down."
"You'll got down out of that rigging.

Johnson hesitated, but the long
(rears of obedience to tho mastors of
lnhlps overpowered him. and ho dropped
Biillnnly to the dock and went on forward

At half after five 1 went below to set
tho. cabin table, but 1 hardly know
what I did. for my eyes and brain wero
filled with tho vIbIoii of a man, white
faced and trembling, comically llko a
bug. clinging to tho thrashing gnff.
At bIx o'clock, when I served supper,
going on deck to got tho food from tho
galley, I saw Harrison, still In tho
samo position. Tho conversation at
tho table was of other things. Nobody
seemed Interested In tho wantonly Im
periled llfo. But, making an extra
trip to the gnllcy a llttlo later. I waB
gladdened by tho sight of Harrison
staggering weakly from tho rigging to
tho forecastle Bcuttlo. He had finally
summoned the courago to descend.
Ilcforo closing this Incident, I must
givo n scrap of conversation I had
with Wolf Larson In tho cabin, whllo
I was washing dishes.
"You woro looking squeamish thlB
aftornoon," ho begau. "What was tho
mattor?"
I could sco that ho know what had
mado mo possibly as sick as Harri
son, that ho was trying to draw mo,
and I, answered, "It was because of tho
brutal treatment of that boy."
Ho gave a short laugh. "Llko sea
sickness. I t-upposo. Somo men aro
BUbJect to It, and others aro not."
"Not so," I objected.
"Just bo," ho wont on. "Tho earth
is as full of brutality as tho sea Is
full of motion. And some men aro
mado sick by tho one, and somo by
tho. other. That's tho only reason."
"But you, who mako a mock of hu
man lifo, don't you place any value
upon it whatever?" I demanded.
"Valuo? What valuo?" Ho looked
at mo, and though his oyes wero
steady and motionless, thoro seemed a
cynical smil'o in thorn. "What kind of
valuo? How do you measuro It? Who
values It?"
"I do," I mado answer.
"Then what Is1 It worth to you 7 An
other man's llfo, I moan. Como, now,
what is It worth?"
Tho valuo of llfo? How could 1 put
a tanglblo valuo upon It? Somehow,

lackod cxprcBSlon when with Wolf
Larson. Tho sacredness of llfo I had
nccoptod as axiomatic. That It was
intrinsically valuable was a truism I
had novor questioned. But when he
challenged, tho truism I was spooch
less. "Wo wcro talking about this yea
torday," ho said. "I hold that llfo
was a formont, n yoast, somothlng
which dovourod lifo that It might live,
and that living was merely successful
plgglshnoss. Why, If thoro is anything
In supply and domand, llfo Is tho
cheapest thing In tho world. Thoro Is
only so much wator, so much earth,
so much air; but tho llfo that 1b de

It has no valuo. Of cheap things It

"You havo read Darwin," 1 said.
"But you read him misunderstanding

IIo shrugged his BhouldorB. "You

or any other man. And human llfo Is
in no wiso difforent, though you fool
It Is and think that you reason why It
Is. Why should I bo parsimonious
with this llfo which Is bo cheap and
without valuo?"
Ho started for tho companion stairs,
but turned his head for a final word.
"Do you know tho only valuo life has

his estimate IIo sadly ovcrratea him
self. Thoro Is plenty moro llfo de
manding to bo born. To himself only
was ho of valuo, and to show how
fictitious oven tills value was, being
dead ho Is unconscious that ho has lost
himself. Ho nlono rated himself be
yond diamonds and rubles. Diamonds
and rubles aro gone, spread out on tho
deck to bo washed away by a bucket
of Bea-water, and ho does not even
know that tho diamonds and rublos
nro gone. Ho docs not lose anything,
for with tho loss of himself ho loaea
tho knowlcdgo of loaa. Don't you sco?
And what havo you to say?"
"That you aro at least consistent,"
was all I could say. and 1 went on
washing tho dishes.
CHAPTER VII.
At Iast,iftor three days of variable
winds, wo havo caught tho northeast
trades. I camo on deck, nftcr a good
night's rest In spite of my poor knoo,
to find the Ghost foaming along, wing-nnd-wlng.
mid every sail drawing ex
cept the Jibs, with a fresh breozo
aBtern. Ton knots, twelvo knots, cloven
knots, varying from tlmo to time.
Is tho speed we aro making. And
over out of tho northeast the bravo
wind blows, driving ub on our course
250 mllos between tho dawns.
Each day grows perceptibly warmer.
In tho second dog-watch tho sailors
como on dock, stripped, and heave
buckets of water upon ono another
from ovcralde. Flying fish aro begin
ning to bo seen, and during tho night
tho watch above scrambles over tho
deck In pursuit of thoso that fall
aboard. In tho morning Thomas Mug
rldgo being duly bribed, tho galley Is
pleasantly areck with tho odor of
their frying, whllo dolphin meat la
served foro and aft on such occasions
as Johnson catches tho blazing beau
ties from tho bowsprit end.
Tho days and nights aro "all a won
der and n wild delight." and though
I havo llttlo tlmo from my dreary
work, I steal odd moments to gaze and
gazo at tho unending glory of what I
nover dreamed tho world possessed. I
do not forget ono night, when I should
havo been asleep, of lying on tho fore
casts head and gazing down nt tho
spectral rlpplo of foam thrust aside
by tho Ghost's forefoot. It sounded
llko tho gurgling of a brook over
mossy stonca In somo quiet doll, nnd
tho crooning song or It lured mo nway
and out of myself till I was no longer
Hump tho cabin-hoy, nor Van Woy
den, tho man who had dreamed away
thlrty-flvo years among books. But a
volco behind me, the tinmlstnkablo
volco of WoU Larson, strong with tho
Invlnclblo certitude of tho man and
mellow with appreciation of tho words
ho was quoting, arouacd mo.
"O the blazing tropic night, whon the
wako'a a welt of light
That holds the hot sky tame.
And tho steady forefoot snores through
tho planet-powdered doors
Whoro the scared whale flukes In flamo.
Her plates aro scarred by tho sun. dear
lavs,
And her ropes aro taut with the dew,
For we're booming down on the old trull,
our own trail, the out trail,
Wo'ro sagging south on tho Long Trail
tho trail that Is ulways now."
"Eh, Hump? How's It strike you?"
ho nsked, after tho duo pause which
tho wordB and sotting demanded.
I looked Into his faco. It was aglow
with light, as tho sea itself, and tho
oyca woro flashing In tho starshlno.
"it strikes mo as remarkable, to say
tho least, that you should show enthu
siasm," I anaworcd coldly.
"Why, man, Ifa living! It's llfo!"
ho cried.
"Which is a cheap thing and with
out valuo," I flung his words at him.
Ho laughed, and It was tho Hrst time
I had heard honest mirth in his volco.
"Ah, I cannot got you to understand,
cannot drlvo it Into your hoad, what
ft thing this llfo Ib. Of courso llfo la
valueless, oxcopt to itself. And I enn
tell you that my llfo Is protty valuablo
Just now to myself. It Is beyond
prlco, which you will acknowledge la
a torrlflc overrating, but which I can
not help, for It Ib tho llfo that Is In
mo thnt makes tho rating."
I Jo left mo as suddonly as ho had
como, springing to tho deck with tho
weight and softness of a tiger. Some
times I think htm mad, or half mad at
least, what or his strango moods and
vagaries. At other times I tnko him
for a groat man, a genlua who has
novor arrived. Ho is certainly an in
dividualist of tho most pronounced
typo. Not only that, but ho is very
lonoly. His tremendous virility and
montnl strength wall him apart. Men
aro moro llko children to htm, avon
tho hunters, and as children ho treats
them, descending porforco to tholr
level and playing with them as a man
plays with puppies. Or elso ho probos
them with tho cruol hand ot n vlviaoc
tloulst, groping about In tholr mental
procoascu us though to soo of what
soul-stuff Is mado.
Whllo on tho question of vngarles.
I shall tell what befell Thomas Mug
rldgo In tho cabin, nnd nt tho samo
tlmo comploto an Incident upon which
1 havo already touched onco or twlco.
Tho twolve o'clock dinner was over,
ono dny, nnd I had Just finished put
ting tho cabin In order, when Wolf
Larsen and Thomas Mugrldgo de
scended tho companion stairs. Though
tho cook had n cubbyhole of a state
room opening off from tho cabin, in
tho cabin Itself ho hud nover dared
to linger or to bo seen, nnd ho flitted
to and fro, onco or twico u day. llko
a timid specter.
"So you know how to play 'Nap,'"
Wolf Larson waB saying In n ploasod
sort of voice. "I might havo guessed
an Englishman would know. 1 learned
It myself in English ships."
Thomas Mugrldgo was beside him
self, a blithering Imbccllo, so pleased
was he at chumming thus with tho
captain. Tho llttlo airs he put on and
tho painful striving to nssumo tho
easy carriage of a man horn to a dig
nified place In llfo would havo been
sickening had they not been ludicrous.
Ho qulto Ignored my presenco, though
I credited him with being simply un
able to see me. Ills pale, wishy-washy
eyes woro swimming llko lazy Bumtnor
seas, though what blissful visions they
beheld wero boyond my Imagination.
"Get tho cards, Hump," Wolf Lar
son ordered, as they took scats at tho
table "And bring out tho cigars and
the whisky you'll And in my berth."
1 returned with tho articles in tlmo
to hear the cockney hinting broadly
that there was a mystory about him,
that ho might be a gentleman's son
gone wrong or something or other;
also, that ho was a remittance man
and was paid to keep away from Eng
land "p'yed 'ansomely to sling my
'ook an' keep slingln' It."
1 had brought the customary liquor
glasses, but Wolf Larson frowned,
shook his head, and signaled with his
hands for mo to bring tho tumblers.
These ho filled twothlrdB full with
undiluted whisky "a gentleman's
drink," quoth ThomaB Mugrldgo and
thoy clinked their glasses to tho glo
rious gamo of "Nap," lighted clgarB,
and fell to shuffling and dealing the
cards.
They played for money. They In
creased the amounts of tho bets. They
drank whisky, they drank It neat, and
I fotched more. 1 do not know wheth
er Wolf Larsen cheated or not a
thing ho was thoroughly capablo of
doing but ho won steadily. Tho cook
made repeated Journeys to his bunk
for money. Each tlmo ho porformod
the Journey with greater swagger, but
ho nover brought moro than a fow
dollars at a time. Ho grow maudlin,
familiar, could hardly sco tho cards or
sit upright. As a preliminary to an
other Journey to his bunk, ho hooked
Wolf Larson's buttonhole with a
greasy forefinger and vacuously pro
claimed and reltoratcd, "I got money.
I got money, I tell yer, an' I'm a gen
tleman's son."
Wolf Larsen was unaffected by the
drink, yet ho drank glaaa for glass,
and If anything his glasses wero fuller.
Thcro was no chango In him. Ho did
not appear oven amused at tho other's
antics.

SNAIL A VALUABLE FOOD
Edible and Nutritious, Is the Verdict
That Has Been Arrived At by
Those Who Know.
"All snails aro edlblo and nutri
tious," says Canon Horsloy in a book
on British land and fresh water mol
luscs, Just published. Ho goes on to
say that oven tho common or garden
snail, though insipid, is as nourishing
as calf's-foot Jelly.
Thcro is a large white shelled snail
called Helix pomatla that is commonly
eaten by connoisseurs in tho south ol
England, whllo all over Franco, Italy
and Spain several species aro used at
food. In Franco thoro are many snail
farniB, which yield a good profit tc
tholr ownera. In tho French and Ita
lian quarters of Now York snails may
ho bought, either nllvo or cooked, and
at moat of tho French restaurants
thoy aro served, "escargots farcls" be
ing the most usual form of tho dish.
Snails aro easy to ratso in large
quantities. Thoy need llmo for mak
ing their shells, but thoy do not have
to bo fed, aa thoy can find their own
food, which la oxcluslvoly tho leaves
of many plants. Thoy aro most doll
clous whon properly prepared and
cooked and, as Canon Horsloy says,
as nourishing aa -calf's-foot Jelly.
Oil Wells Sunk In Bed of Ocean.
Many persons would doubt tho state
ment that it is possiblo to pump oil
from tho earth beneath tho wators of
tho ocean. That this is dono, how
over, is proved. Tho woll towers are
located on rough framo plors over the
ocean and as rar as a hundred feet
from tho surf. Tho oil is pumped
through tho wators of tho sea and Is
carried through pipes to tho land,
whoro It Is emptied Into tanks. Tho
pumps nro worked by means ot steam

ROAD
BUILDING
MAINTENANCE OF GOOD ROADS
Farmers Urged to Vote Against Bonds
or Taxes Whenever Plans Do
Not Provide for Up-Kccp.
Tho progressive farmer bolloves in
good roads, as overybody knows. No
body needs good roads moro than tho
farmer and his family. Good roada
Incrcaso profits and enrich social life.
Poor roads cost rnoro than good ones.
At tho samo tlmo, wo havo reached
tho conclusion that It is our patriotic
duty to adviso our readers to vote
against road bonds or road taxes
whenovor tho plans for building the
roadB do not includo proper provision
for maintaining them after they are
built. It is Juot aa foolish to spend
money to build a road, without at the
oamo time providing for funds to keep
it up, as it would bo to spend money
to get a horso without providing feed
for him after he is bought. Tho South
has wasted millions and millions by
building roads without keeping them
up, and It is high tlmo to stop wast
ing tho pooplo's tax money In this
fashion. We must aim not moroly to
get good roads but to keep good roads.
Another important mattor is that
of having all road expenditures made
under expert supervision. Secretary
of Agriculture Houston says: "Tho
nation today is spending nnnunlly tho
equivalent of more than ?200,000,000
for roads. Much of this la directed by
local supervisors and it Is estimated
by experts that of the amount so di
rected anywhere from 30 to 40 per
cent is, relatlvoly speaking, wasted
or misdirected." Every state should
have a stato highway commission, and
tho people should not vote money for
any expensive scheme of country road
improvement until it has been ap
proved by experts.
The third matter wo wish to em
phasize Is tho importance of tho road
drag. As we have said beforo, the
drag is undoubtedly tho cheapest good
roads maker ever invented, and if
somo commercial company had pat
ented It and sold It at five times its
cost, every county in tho South would
bo uslug it. It is so simple and cheap
that people will not reallzo what a
wonder-worker It Is. Tho time to pre
vent next winter's bad roads is now,
and tho way to prevent them is to
mako plans to have the roads dragged
Every farmer interested ought to see
his county road authorities and demand
notion. Send to the United States
department of agriculture, Washing
ton, D. C, for a freo copy of Farmers
Bulletin 597, "The Iload Drag and
How to Use It," and keep postering
