Mr. Doldnim. let 1110 introduce on
1.. m wife. You will be hiimates to
g ther and might a well know each
1 -th. - Ifcforohand.
I doffel i head gear when she held
' .: her hand and put- me a regular sail -te
s rip.
1 kinder sui that she took a liking
: in--, and that made me feel c.ts, for it
won't do t hae a woman down on mi
board a ship, and that woman the -kip-pci
s wife.
she aked me lots of questions; how
111 in unge.s 1 had made, ami if 1 had

ami hilTetl up till 1 reached an outfitter's
shop, where 1 oerhauletl their slop
ctiestand picked out what dud- 1 need
ed l.irthe oage. stowed "m awa in
in. donkey, or chest, as you landsmen
t .11 it, ami had it sent dovvn to the vc--i
..
"lu three or four d:ns we had the
t .:-iomar good w'i-hes and Chaplain's
yv.i ers ftir go.nl luck and afe return,
e.isf off moorimrs. and ere loan we were
standing mast-head off the Western
Islands'.
We raised a school one morniug,
ami after a hard day's work, caught
three which suivved down 9S barrels.
I hev were all cow-whales, and did not
v mt only a little more than oO bar
rels each. Hut it was good to .start on,
ami would make balktst, doubling the
' Cape.
Off the Horn we had a lively time
of it : got into a fog and nearly run
ashore on a -luvr coast before Ave knew
what was the matter.
The skipper's wife was on deck most
ol the time, "and though that was her
first oyage. her quick" ear caught the
sound of breakers on our lee some ten
minutes ore we heard "em.
I tell ott, wc had to tack and tack
to get away from those rocks; a little
longer ami we would -have all gone to
lUy .loiies in ti) fathoms of water.
We kinder looked up to the .-kipper's
w iff after that, for if it had not
been for her 1 would not be telling you
alto-at in r. Aft r we rounded the Cape,
tin Old Man squared away for the Mar
quesas Nlands. where we had a run
a-hoie, and brought off two or three
lxiat-loads of oranges, bananas and co-
taunts, to keep away the scurvy.
somchov or other the atmosphere did
not agree with me, and 'fore I knew it
I was dovvn in my bunk with a scorch
ing fever. The Captain got out his big
book, unlocked the medicine chest, and
was goiug to prescribe a big dose of
Jlp-om salts they always give em
board of ship- If a man falls from the
ma-t-hcad, it's salt-. If he has the
toothache, same medicine. Hut the skip
per's wile took me in tow and stopped
that nonsense pretty quick. Her
father was a land doctor and she had
picked iiji iinethitc letter for feer
than alt.s She tlived into the tiii-dicine-chvst
ami hmnjjht out niimlwr M.Ten;
th:il the only name I knew it by ; pave
me .some of .eten; opened a nm of
mustard, pit a tub of hot water from
the eook'.s galley, antl made me take a
mustard bath, "nntil 3-011 eould wrinjr
water enough ow of the hects I luul
around me U float.awbale-lioat. She
tlidn't xtop therc,however,but toasted and
tea'd me juat liko a mother. Tin Cap
tain hadn't a word to a, but jtiit let
her have things her own'way; and what
with tloctoriug, mir-ing and watching
ine o' nighLs, she fetched me through
until I was entered on the !og-look cured
but we had to get numl;r M'ven filleil
up when we got inu Valparaiso.
"Tire eabin-liov he also h:td a touch
of soiuvthing -might have Iwen homo-hieknos-s
much a any thing- but she
took hiru in tv ami in four or live daj
set him ri;jht side tip with care.
n We Iiatl been :l going on nigh to
three years, with 7i barrels in the hold
and ."iOU that we h:wl sVnt home bv tlie
HeeUir, when I noticed that the kipper
wore a troubled look. I!etide, his wife
didn't come on deck o often. One
evening, just :m the dog-watch was on,
he comes up to me and says, 'Hen' he
alwas called m- Hen when none of the
men "were around 'Hen,1 aslie, 'my
wife's -iek.'
" 'What's the matter with her. Cap
tain?" says I.
"Why, blame it, man' that's tin
only ctis word he evcru-ed 'can't you
gue-s what's the matter? And h-re we
are 400 miles awa from luain land.'
"Don't get low-spirited. Captain,'
says I ; perhaps we can run in In-fore
she need, a doctor
"No, we can't; and I'm a fool,"
sjiys he.
" Whatever you do, don't finger once
that big book and mcdieine-cTie-t,' I
said; for I hail Kp.-om .-alt-sin my mind,
do you sh?
"' No, 1 won't, Hen; but what is to be
done?'
'" Well, we'll .square away, any how,
ami do the best we can.'
" Hut it w:ls no ti-e; she grew wor-e.
The Gisirge and Susan pitched anil
rolled so heavily that it made her suffer
all the more. We broke two ca-ks of
oil ami hishetl them over the rail,
knocked out the bungs and let the oil
adrift. It smoothed down the water a
little, but it did not la-t long. If the
skipper thought it would have done any
good he would have emptied cery cask
on board to save his wife.
"The next night, while I was on
watch, the old man came bouncing out
of his cabin. 'Hen, foi heawu't nakc,
comedown! House out .Mr. Kcdgc.-lo
stand jmir watch," he sung out.
" I "roused out the Third Mate ami
followed the Captain. When I reached
the cabin I could hear his poor wife cr
ing, and 1 t-ll u it went all over inc.
" ' Captain,' sa.- I. 'my good moth
er ha told me some things that might
be of .service, and I'll give it to
you st might as I can.' So I told him
how to proceed, bade him Cod speed,
and he went in, while 1 stood sentrt at
the .scuttle.
44 The crew by this time had got wind
that something was up, M-eingas Mr.
Ketlge hat! changed places with me. ami
lhe mustered aft, anioiisl waiting to
hear the good or bad news.
44 l'rott soon a little low, wailing cry
came drilling up the cabin gangway,
ami then we knew that another hand
had lii-en added to our crew.
"The men noiselessly went for'ard
whispeiing among themselves, for they
all liked the skipper's wife and remeni
bcrcd the etr.i soek- and tobacco she
brought out of the cabin, which wen

'Oh,es, go on; let me hear the
whole of it. I'm all cars."
Well, the baby lived, and the moth
er died just one hundred and eight
miles from Yaldhia, Chili, by ihe
quadrant. What the mother did lor me
1 did my best to tio tor the iiaoy. 1 gm
out two or three cans of condensed milk,
mixed some in warm water and fed it a
carefulh as if I were feeding a humming-bird.
When we ran into Yaldhia,
the broken-hearted skipper got a couple
of Portuguese doctors to embalm the
body of Ids wife, after which he hat! it
put into a metallic ease and placed in
his cabin, so he could have her near him
even in death."
""What about the bab ?"
"Oh, she got along, and weathered
the rem-iimler of the voyage. Took her
condensed milk regular and clung to me
just a if she was my own.
1 saw her a few weeks ago, but she
ain't much of a baby now. I went
down to Nantucket, where the old man
li4. he don't go to sea au more; has
enough to lhe on and to spare.
" When I called at the house I saw a
0u11g man about your age. who -.cemed
to be paying his attentions around that
domicile. Hut that didn't hinder her
from throwing her amis around my
neck, if sin' is lf years of age.
' No, sir: if I was a oung man my
self I think m chances would be a-good
as the net one, for she don't forget old
Hen and the mam times he has carried
her in his amis. Only a cable's length
from the house, is her mother's grvae,
ami it looks :i fre-h, green ami bloom

the baby, as 1 took care of. will think :s
much of her as I do. Cod bless her for
