Trucks, loaded to the top, were rumbling to and fro; long lines of men were un loading the big freight ships and the whole scene fascinated our little trav elers. One big dock was heaped high with piles of cocoanuts, another was covered with bananas, bags of wheat and coffee filled a third, and so it went It seemed to Sam and Betsey that everything in the world could be found on the famous London docks. Before long they came to a break in the long line of docks and found themselves walking beside a row of huge river barges tied up at the river’s edge. One, very much bigger than the rest, had a little cabin built on one end of it, and different from all the others, it was painted bright green, with pots of geraniums at the windows and r. steady stream of smoke coming out of its chimney. "Oh, let’s go on board and see what It is like,” cried Betsey and as fast as they could wTalk the narrow gang plank, they found themselves standing on the deck of the barge. “Why it looks as long as a city block,” said Sam, “I had no idea a river barge was so big. The little green cabin looks like a shoe box, doesn’t it, Mr. Van.” “Yes, but look over there." laughed | OntiMi.. oi,a stanilimr on the deck in a pen of Its own, Sam and Hr. Vail saw a large white nanny goat quietly eating a pile of green grass from m bag made out of an old fish net. Just at that moment the door of thd cabin opened and a jolly old woman came out. "Good morning to ye and welcome,” she said, "I see ye iiko my goat.” I “Oh, indeed we do,” said Betsey, “but why do you have a nanny goat on board your barge?” | “Bless me heart, child, you’ll soon see,” replied the old woman, ana down she sat beside the goat and promptly milked her day’s supply. “We get her grass that she eats from around the wharves, growing In thd cobble stones, and I’m sure she liked it,” said the old woman, as she milked her goat, “for I’ve never heard her complain.” When her pitcher was full she asked them in the cabin, which our traveler* found looked like a country cottage^ with its Dutch blue clock, and its stiff white curtains. The children were de lighted, but their real thrill came, when, as they were about to leave, a gentle wind started blowing and soon the whole room was full of the most beautiful sounds coming from a harp hanging in front of a window. “Ah,” laughed the old woman, “ye'd think it was spooky if ye didn’t know that it’s a wind harp, brought all tha way from Greece. Hang it up in a soft current of air, and it will play ns long as the wind blows through th« strings.” “Well,” said Sam, as they found themselves back on the street again, “that was a real adventure, first find ing a goat on a barge and then a harp that is olared by the wind” nearly half of the 1,400 scats at, the Adelphi have been sold.
