Between Two Horns.
"I tell you , Susan Swing , " said
Captain , Rose , "there ain't a man
thntlives between the Two Horns as
Arould lot his boy not bigger than
your'n go out in a boat to-day.
Don't you do it. "Tain't no Jrind of
weather for that slip of a lad to go
foolin' with them big billows as
sweeps around old Dull Head. Why ,
look yourself , woman. You can seo
them more'n four miles away , dash
ing and lashing the shore. "
As Captain Hose spoko he pointed
with his right hand in the direction
of one of the two headlands between
which Dell Haven lay.
"And no dory in the habor , " ho
continued , "could weather Bright
Head ( pointing towards the head
land at the left ) , not if Cap'n Hezek-
iah himself was a row'n of it. You'd
better take them new-locks out and
hide the oars if he won't mind with
out you doin' it.
"I can't bear to do it , " said Mrsi
Swing. "Richard will be so disap
pointed. He set his lobster pots
yesterday , and he hasn't r.lept any
all night in his eagerness to go out
early and haul them. Don'tyou see ,
Captain Rose , it's Saturday , and
two whole coaches full of summer
boarders came last night to the
Bright Head House , and he can get
a big price for his lobsters to-day.
My poor Dick has worked so hard
makingthe lobster pots himself , and
it seems like cutting off the boy's re
ward to say 'you ohant't go' to
him. "
"S'pose you do feel weakish 'bout
it , Susan ; but you don't want that
ere ' boat to be picked up adrift and
no boy in it , do ye ? "
"You know I don't. CaptainRose , "
she i said. "It I hadn't loved him do
you ; think I'd get up before daylight
to come down here to see the lad
off i ? "
"Hush , " said the Captain. "Here
he ; comes , and he is fastening his
straw , hat to his buttons. He sees
there is wind enough ahead. "
lb was a morning in June , and the
sun was not yet risenbut , the-glory
of , his coming was in the East and
on , the sea.
As he came down the pier , the oars
on ( his shoulders , and securing his
straw hat by a string to his jacket ,
the old Captain said : "He's a fine
,
lad , Dick is , and well worth the sav
,
ing. "
"He's all the world to me , "
thought Mrs. Swing , although her
,
lips uttered no word.
"Good moring , Captain Rose , ' '
called < out Richard. "Good for lob
sters , do you think ? "
"Better for lobsters than 'tis for
boys ] , " ejaculated the Captain , re
moving } his broad brown hands
.
from ] his pockets and laying one of
them on the lad's shoulders as soon
as I * the later came within touching
distance. "I say Dick Swing , that
you ; are not going out in that cockle
shell of your'n this morning , " ' he an
nounced. j
"Icertainly am , Captain Rose , "
returned the boy. "It's a little rough ,
,
but likely as not the wind will come
right around before I get half way
to the ledge , and I should think you
would know better than to scare my
,
littlemother J here half to death. See
mother , " he said , gayly , - " ! have an
extra ( oar and one whole pin , yes , two
of ( them , in case a rock-lock gives
away , and I've got a lot of extra
courage ( about me that I can't ex
actly show vou unless you come with
1 '
me.
This he said looking out to sea ,
for he did not feel like looking either
at his mother or Captain Rose. "
"Dick , " said Mrs. Swing , ap-
proaching ] the pier's edge as the
owner of the little boat proceeded to
bestow 1 his lunch basket and extras
under 1 the bow.
. "Well , mother , " returned Richard ,
looking up.
"I wish you would not go , " she
said , her tones full of beseeching.
"Why , mother ? Do you want my
seven new lobster pots to be carried
offtosea"he < asked. "How could
you have the heart to ask me ? " If
the wind keeps on blowing I shall
lose theni every one. "
"That's true , " ejaculated Captain
Rose. "I never thought of that.
It's just rijjht , this wind is , to drag
them off , but you never can haul
them in alone. "You'll be sure to
be dragged overboard. "
"No , I shan 't. Come along with
me if you wan't to help , " laughed
Richard ,
"Hump ! 1 should sink that craft
before we got out of harbor , " said
the Captain ; "though if I wasn't so
heavy I would go. " Captain Rose
weighed a trifle less than three hun
dred pounds , and had left the sea
after fifty years of faithful service.
"Not another person was in sight.
"I'll tell you what I'll do , " said the
Captain. "If you insist on going ,
I'll stop on my way up and ask
Captain Danforth to look out for
ypu ond if.he thinks you're getting .
"
"
"Thanlcyou , Captain. "
"Dick , " said his mother , "can't :
yon let the lobster pots go ? "
"Couldn't possible , " smiled the '
Ijoy. "Could you have the heart to
i
f
*
aaMi a WaaiMi
ask me ? Will you cost mo off , moth
er ? " ho called a second later.
"Wait a minute , " exclaimed Mrs.
Swing. "Fetch your boat close up.
I want to speak to you , Dick. "
The boat received the necessary
impetus , and touched the side of tho
pier. Mrs. Swing had seated herself
onutiho topmost luyer oflogs forming
the warf , and leaned over us though
to speak confidentially to her son.
"Dick , " snid his mother , "hold
fast ! I'm coming , " and into tho
boat she dropped before either Cap
tain Rose on tho dock or Captain
Richard in the bout had knowledge
of her intention.
"What under the sun , mother , "
cried tho boy , "do you mean ? "
"I'm going with you , Dick , to keep
you from tumbling overboard when
you haul iu , " and she seated herself
in the stern , calling back as the tide
floated the boat out. "We depend on
you. Captain Rose , to send after us
if we if it gets too rough , " shogasp-
ed , with a dash of spray in her face.
"Ay , ay ! " cried the Captain , and
he took off his hat and swung it , he
scarcely knew why.
Of all the women in Dell Haven ,
from the eldest to the youngest , Mrs.
Swing most feared the sea. To live
beside it , to watch its every mood
delighted her , but to venture on it
for pleasure she was never known to
do.
do.A
A moment's peace she never knew
when Richard , her only son was ex
posed to the treachery of the waters ,
but rather than mar his wild delight
in wind and waves this unselfish
mother concealed as much as possi
ble her anxiety for him.
Richard was not selfish , and had
he imagined what his mother was at
that moment sufferimr would have
put the boat about and tied it for
ever at the stake rather than cause
her this agony.
. Just as the boat got well into the
toil of the waves the sun "arose , shed
ding such brilliance on the waters
that Mrs. Swing , who sat facing it ,
wasjdazzledand well nigh failed to see
in time a gill net into which the
boat was running.
"See any boat ahead , mother ? "
questioned Richard. "You must
keep a good lookout for me. I've
got my ranges right and can fetch
the lobster grounds every time. "
"Is it far ? " questioned his mother
shudderingly.
"Not very ; just outside Dull Head.
I reckon we 'll fetch it. " said the lad ,
dipping his oars for u full stroke and
then letting the boat slide up to the
summit of a rolling wave , a trick he
had caught from Captain Hezekiah
Danforth , the master boatman of
Dell Haven.
The wind grew stronger and strong
er , and the waves every moment in
creased in size. Even Richard glanced
sideways more than once with ill-
concealed anxiety as the long bil
lows came tumbling on , and just
then getting a glympse of his moth
er's face beheld it so blanched with
terror of the sea that it seemed to
him his mother was no longer in the
boat with him.
"Dick , " she gasped as his oar
missed stroke and sent the spray
over the boat , "Dick , I'm afraid to
go tin. "
Dich glanced backward. He had
pulled about a mile from shore and
was midway between the two head-
lands familiarly spoken of as the
Horns. Dull Head was surrounded
by an even accumulating muss of
breakers , and Bright Head caught
the sea on its precipitous sides , send
ing it backward in fountains of foam ,
and all the four miles that lay be-
tweenthe two points were rolling
miles of billows.
Sitting with his face landward
Richard had not fully felt the dan
ger ,
Now , the lad could not repress a
shudder | as he said , "I don't believe
1 could find the buoys in
such a sea , and nobody could haul
in the pots. I believe I'll put about. "
"Oh. do ! 0 Richard , there comes
an awful one ! ' and Mrs. Swing slipped
down from her seat into the bottom
of the boat and hid her free from the
oncoming wave.
Richard gave a mighty pull at the
oars to keep the boat head on , and
it rode that wave in safety only to
meet new ones , into whose depths
the tiny shell rolled to be completely
hidden from the sight of two men
who were standing on the Dell Ha-
ven pier.
One was Hezekiah Danforth , the
other was Captain Rose.
"If there was only a tug insightto
help them , " groaned Captain Rose.
"Why didn't you dun a little com-
mon sense im o the woman if she
didn't take any naturally , " scolded
Captain Danforth , "or shut her and
the boy up somewhere. "
"I told her , but I declare when I
was young I e.ould have brought
down ' them oars in half tho time it
; takes Jim to fetch 'em I say , 'Kiah "
Danforth , ain't that boat trving to
put about ? "
"It acts like it , John , but in will get
swamped i just assure as guns if no ,
it's going on. There ' s nothing else
to do. I never in all my life saw a-
time when there wasn' t a sail in sight.
* * * The boat's gone ! No ! There
it 3 comes up again ! "
Suddenly a cry for a helping hand
was raised among the bystanders ,
and i willing hearts vventforth from the
land.
"Every second tells. It's a race
for : life ? " called out Captain Danforth.
"Jim , you'd better get in. You're
strong : ; if one of us tuckers out you
can < take hold. "
All ready lay the boat , a dark
green ; surf boat , a boat that could
stand i heavy seas , and the two men
and boy who had nobly volunteered
were not long in starting off.
Success to you. Fetch em' back
alive ! " called out Captain Rose.
All at once the pier at Dell Haven
seemed thronged with people. The
news spread that Mrs. Swing and
Richard were out alone on thesea.
As they watched the dim , dark
speck now rising upon the swelling
waters and quickly vanishing from
sight , not one of the little throng
but knew the danger of the tiny boat.
Mith. breathless eagerness they
two rowers stood at thenar urging
it onward.
"It's down the harbor now.
They're catching it. It's nn awful
wind in June. That mite of a boat
will never hvo CHI they get there , "
were some of tho remarks heard as
they passed on.
As for Captain Rose ho went pant
ing up tho hill into thetown , climbed
into the belfry of Doll Haven church ,
ns far up as he could go , and watch *
ed through a spy-glnss the progress
oi tho mere speck in the distance and
the toiling helpers so far behind.
After a few minutes he realized that
Captain Danforth. although doing
his utmost , could nob reach the per
iled ones in time to save them and
he said to himself :
* "Tho boy is doing well , but be
can't hold out. Imustdoit. " Cap
tain Rose's little daughter had fol
lowed her father into the church and
climbed the belfry stairs.
"See here , Dolly , " ho said , "can
you look through here and keep
shnrp watch ? No , you run you can
go quicker'n I can , " and the Cap
tain scribbled a message on the back
of an envelope , and giving it to her
bade her make haste to the telegraph
office. "You tell Johnny Blake it's
to save a life and it.must go ahead
of everything. "
Dolly Rose did not need to be told
twice. She ran every step of the
way , and rushing into the telegraph
office flushed and eager cried out :
"Mr. Blake , here , send this quick.
Richard Swing and his mother are
going to drown , and it's to save
them ! "
The operator tookthe old envelopo
and read :
Captain True , stenm tug Good Heart ,
Cromwell Harbor. Steam out at once in
search ofsmall boat woman and hoy in it
ofTDelf Haven three miles : goiiifrngninst tho
wind ; can't lust long. Joirx Rose.
"All right , " said the operator ,
clicking away at his machine for a
minute or two , and'then exclaiming ,
"It's done. Wait a minute , sis , and
I'll tell you whether or not begets it ;
wire runs right flown to tho wharf. , '
The minutes went by. Ten had passed
when the answer came hack :
"Steam's up ; start at onre ; go myself.
' • Timothy Thue. "
The operator did not stay to write
it. " Run quick and tell you father Cap
tain True is gone already , " he said.
Dolly ran , saying to every one she
met , "They'll be saved ! They'll be
saved ! " The child gob up to the bel
fry stair , and couldn't utter a word.
She could only smile and bow her
head and try to get out the message
which she did at last.
Gaptain "Rose's eye was on the
speck. He dared not take it off lest
never to find it again. Meanwhile ,
the news got abroad that Captain
Rose had telegraphed to Cornwall
for a tug , and the burden of fear
grew lighter.
In the little boat again and again
had Richard tried to turn its head
towards theland , but with each trial
it took in so much water that he was
forced to give up the attempt
Nothing could be done but keep ot.
and face the boiling see. Very few
words were spoken. Mrs. Swing
kept bailing as fast as possible , with
only the shell of a horseshoe crab to
work with.
At length came a wavelike a small
hill , up which the boat rode gallant
ly , and then suddenly Richard
shouted :
"They're coming for us , mother. I
see i a boat just outside the harbor. "
Then the tears sprung to Mrs.
Swing's ; eyes. She stopped bailing
for : a moment to look toward the
shore. < All she could see was a wall
of < water shutting out the land.
"Courage , mother" Dick said.
Every rise and fall of the oar was
a ; prayer ; every dip of the poor old
crab < shell was a petition for life.
Out from Cromwell Harbor , seven
miles to the eastward , and hidden
from ; sight by Bright Head , steamed
the tug Good Heart. Never had its
captain i stood watching thesea with
more ; earnest gaze. Never was steam
applied i witli more generous hand.
'Twos the woman and the boy in the
boat out at sea that lived in the
gaze < , in the steam and in the fuel ,
and ; Good Heart bore away with cor
dial . speed till Bright Head was won
and ; weathered.
"Isee it ! " ' shouted the Captain ,
"though how in thunder it's lived to
get , there's more'n I know , " and he
gave directions to steam outside.
Richard's attention was so divided
between the billows and theland and
the friendly boat , and Mrs. Swing
was so intent on bailing , that neith
er ( of them saw the tug until it was
upon them , and a hailing voice shout
ed ( :
"Hold on till we pick you up. "
It seemed as if a voice from heaven
had : spoken. Even bluff old Captain
Rose up in the belfry of the church ,
ejaculated , "ThankGod ! " as he saw
the tug come to.
The shock of the call , the sight of
the black , throbbing tug , friendly as
they seemed , yet came near swamp
ing : the boat , for Richard let it turn ,
and the last strength he had was put
forth in holding it up to the wind un
til a line was cast off , .and even then
he hail no power to make it fast. It
was Mrs. Swing who tried to obey
the commands that came but could
not.
Finally the tug's boat was lower
ed. It was no easy task to get to
leeward and board the Good Heart ,
*
which held its breath , bracing itself
against the waves almost as a thing
of life to doits kindly office. Rich
ard and his mother had been saved.
"Give 'em a signal ! Give 'em
three ! " and the steam whistle blew
three shrieks that went over the bay
and up tiie harbor and over against
the meeting house steeple , until old
Captain Jtose fell down on his knees
to utter the first prayer of thankful
ness his little Dolly had ever heard
her father offer.
Two gentlemen walking together
came by a stately new building.
"What a magnificent new struc
ture ! " said one. "Yes , " replied the
other , "but I cannot bear to look at
it , often as I pass it. " "That ia
strange. Why not ? " "Because it
reminds me that the owner built it
out of the blood , the aches and
groans of , his fellow-men , out of the
g efpfXc | r y 'chflf enfftTje yiQe oi
wailing women. " "rGraciousr "Wh'dfc
is the owner ? A money-lender or a
pawnbroker , or something of the
kind ? " "Oh , no he is a denth-W

Food for Boflootlon.
Tho 2cw York World of Fobrnary
9th , says :
"Tlie question ns to how much of what
fhey pretend to know doctors really
know is ji ver3' interesting one.
"They possess exceptionally great
facilities for humbugging , and tho pre
sumption is that they uro not proof iu
most cases , at all times at least , against
temptation to make use of them. Their
profession comes ns near being an eso
teric one as uny that ia acknowledged to
be respectable. But the revelation as to
their views in the Robinson arsenical
poisoning cases in Boston is startling.
* 'There wore five deaths from the drug ,
nnd the doctors in their certificates at
tributed thorn respectively to pneu
monia , typhoid fever , menigitis , bowel
dieaso and Bright's disease of th'o kid
neys. Tho truth would have never been
known but for suspicions with which tho
doctors had nothing to do. Theic is
food here for reflection and for doe-
tors. "
The above criticism is fully warranted
bj * the startling ignorance shown by the
attending pl)3-siciiii8 ) : m the Somcrvillo
Cuses.
It can be nptl.y said that humau lifo is
too often sacrificed to the ignorance and
bijrotiy of the profession.
Too often it happens that fatal results
follow an improper course of treatment
the physician treats tho patient for
consumption , irenei'iil debility or for
nervous disoiders. whilst the real dis
ease , which ia slriAvh * destroying the kid
neys and tilling the system with a poison
cpute as deadby-aa aiaeuie , i.s altogether ,
overlooked or does not attract attention
until too late.
Pli3'hieians too often treat tho s3'mp-
toms of disease instead of the disease
itself.
It is well established that four-fifths
of tho ordinary ills which beset humani-
t3 * are the results of disease in tho kid-
ne\-s which will .yield to tho emative
properties of Warner's Safe ( 'uro if
tinioby used , and to it alone. What is
apparently a disease in the other organs
is more oftentimes a mere symptom of
kidne3 * disease , which should be quickly
eradicated by Warner ' s Safe Cine before
it secures too firm a hold on thoso
organs.
Building air castles should bo the work
of tho until who is full of wind.
