The Story of One of the Boy He- Z roes of "76. It was the year of our Lord 1776. All England was ringing with reports of her rebellious colonial offspring; the incipient republic was in a state of fer- ment and of preparation for war. The first American gunboats had just been launched and proudly sailed about the New England coast, which British cruisers kept in constant alarm. On the deck of one of these cruisers, as leaving Newport it moved through the blue ocean waters toward New London, » crowd had gathered about a burly, middle-aged man in captain’s uniform and a slight young fellow of perhaps twenty. “Well, well, my little mant have ight you again,” said the Cap- tain, clapping him on the shoulder. C you've run away twice before, per- haps you think to give us the slip a third time; but,’ with a volley of oaths, So we “you never were more mistaken. Swear to show allegiance to your right- ful sovereign or—die for a traitor!’ The eyes which looked back at him were as unflinching as the Captain’s own. For generations the Otis cour- age had held its name even in deadly peril, and this relative and namesake of James Otis, the eloquent pleader for independence, could meet his end as behoved one of his race. “T amanindependent citizen of Con- necticut, and owe no allegiance to a tyrant,”’ he said proudly. The Captain burst into which his men joined. “This scion of liberty crows loud— small good will be such flaunting, though, for in six months all these ‘in- dependent citizens’ will be creeping back to Mother England’s knees like so many whipped children.” The scornful laugh had brought a flush to the youth’s face, and’ now he said with heat: “More probably Mother England will discover that her children have come of age beyond dispute, and will go home with the whipping reversed.”’ “Come, come, enough of parley. You shall swing from yonder yardarm in fifteen minutes, my young braggart, if you will not tight under our colors. Will you tight with us? Yes or no!” There was no relenting in the cap- tain’s voice, no touch of pity on all those staring faces. Death or life? Ah, small wonder if in such a stress brave hearts shrink, and yielding to the fear of doom are branded by those who have never met like trials as cowards and traitors! “Speak!"’ the captain commanded. And the prisoner answered firmly: “No.’” e The captain's face grew dark with wrath that this stripling should stand before him and defy his fate, and the thought that much might be done if such pluck was but enlisted for royalty only roughened his tone as it rang over the deck. “In the name of the king I con- demn you as a rebel! Up with the rope, men." And asthe men went off with alacrity he began a measured stride up and down the deck, watching as they ex- ecuted his bidding. James Otis folded his arms and gazed over the sparkling white-crested swells to where New London's shores lay fair in the distance. Only a few more Moments’ sight of «a world which seemed doubly beautiful now that he should so soon leave it forever. Death! And such an ignominous one! To fall fighting for his country — ah, that would be noble! but to hang at a alaugh, in mocking ghosts of what might have been. He thought of the farm on a Connecticut hill-side where his child- hood had been spent, the old red house with its two guarding button-wood trees. Perhaps even now his mother was thinking that her son might soon be home, or his father was going down to the office in expectation of “a letter from Jamie."’ The recalling of this boyish name brought a blur to his eye and a weakening for one instant of his resolution. But, no! far better that they should never learn his fate than that he should return to them a traitor to his country. He could hear the men laugh joking as they knotted the hempen | cord. Dees ty rebel, that, said one, | nodding toward him. yard-arm like any criminal.

It's a slip noose, you know,” joked « third. “But, by good King George, I wish all the colonists in as sure a place.” The men aloft came down to the deck. The captain moved toward the Even then one word could ing cord. Would that word be spoken? The captain's hand dropped heavily down upon the prisoner's shoulder. But with his grim ‘‘Time’s up. Go | forward there!’ a cry of ‘‘Ship ahead!” came also. And bearing down upon them showed an enemy with guns grimly threatening. “To the guns, men. Not a moment to be lost,’ swore the captain. And in the hurried preparation for imme- | diate action the prisoner was forgot- ten. “Boom! boom!" challenged the brave little American, who could show only half the guns of her adversary. ‘Boom! boom!’’ answered the En- glish cruiser. Spars began to fall and men drop wounded as the iron mouths below the starry flag kept up a telling fire, but the heavier guns would soon disable “that Yankee Doodle canoe,’’ as the Captain averred witha string of blight- ing adjectives. A daring project flashed into the mind of James Otis. At least he would once more serve his country and die in the doing rather than swing from a British yard-arm! None noticed as he slipped to the gangway, and presently in the dimness of the hold a fi of blue light revealed a slender snake-like thing reaching to the store of powder —then the flash was gone and the tiny spark of fire crept along the coil. Unconscious of rapidly approaching doom the sturdy English seamen hurled defiance at their foe. One of the men as he ran for more powder to the near- est supply saw a dark object moving through the water away from the can- onading cruiser. Hark! above the din of battle sound- ed an awful boom which seemed to rock the ocean’s depths and sway the very air. Spars and hull fell splintered about the swimmer; shattered bodies shocked his sight; one of the massive cannons sank before him with a hiss as the hot iron cleft the water. And in place of the instant death to which he had looked forward upon the great ship’s explosion, life was still his—he moved unhurt, preserved as by a miracle. It was several moments before he could trust himself to look behind— the horror of it all was so strong upon him. When he did iook the surprised American ship was moving away, un- conscious that one whose hand had de- stroyed their enemy still in ex- istence; and where the ill-fated cruiser had been only a few light substances floated upon the shimmering water. Two miles before him rose the shore. He was a good swimmer, and the dis- tance rapidly fessened. But the late strain on his nerves had been so tense that as he swam the sun seemed glar- ing into his brain, and each stroke seemed to take a heart beat from his strength. But there was only a half- mile between him and the shore—now only a quarter. And slowly, more slowly he swam. The glaze of weak- ness before his eyes made sky and water seem a brazen hue. Could he hold out? But here was the shore crowded with people who had anxiously watched the battle between the two ships, wonder- ingly, thankfully seen the British cruiser shivered all in a moment, and the starry emblem of their country flutter safely away. Now all eyes were on the swimmer—there were surprised cries, questioning shouts. Further up the shore row-boats were already push- ing off to go to his aid, but before they could reach him the men nearest him rushed breast deep into the water, many hands were stretched to help him, and with all things reeling be- fore his exhausted vision, James Otis was held in safe and kindly grasp. When speech returned to him he was lying on the grassy bank, the glad sunshine falling on his face, the blue water lapping at his feet, all about him anxious questionings from an ex- cited crowd. He told his story in the fewest possible words, but the telling brought tears from the women, ex- had finished cheer after cheer rang out for the deed and the hero of the deed.

It must be understood, in reference to the appearance of the second pair of broad teeth, that an expert, looking at the mouth, which has four permanent incisors, will conclude that the animal is two years and a half old, but if he is required to certify that the age is under or above that period he must proceed to inspect the molar teeth and take into account the animal’s pedi- gree, its sex and its general condition of development. If the animal in question is a bull, and has been forced to early maturity, it may be expected that the second pair of permanent incisors will cut at two years and four months, and if either of the anterior (foremost) tem- porary molar the conclusion that the animal is under two years and a half will be strength- ened. remain in their places, Shortly after the first and second molars are cut, the third makes its ap- pearance; occasionally it appears be- fore the others, and the animal at the age of three years will have three an- terior molars level with the other teeth, but showing no signs of wear. The eruption of the third pair of permanent incisors may occur at any time betwoen months and three years of age. cultivated breeds they are present be- fore the animal is three years old, and occasionally they will be found well developed after two and a half years. six In two years and In fact the anterior molars afford more reliable evidence of the age be- tween two and a half and three years old, than is furnished by the incisors. At three years of age the average condition of the teeth in cultivated breeds is the fourth pair of the corner permanent incisors are well up, but In well-bred rary teeth soon after the completion of the third year. In well-bred bulls they are often present at two years and three months, while in some instances they are not cut till the animal is three years and nine months. Very little reliance, in- deed, can be placed on the corner in- cisor, and the examineris compelled to refer to the molar tecth to correct his opinion. With the exception of the corner permanent incisors, the fourth pair of broad teeth, the permanent dentition of the ox 1s completed, and after this period the changes in the form of the teeth from effects of attrition will assist the examiner in forming an opinion of the age.—Southern Farm. ——~ + = —___ —The office of the air-tight fruit jar may be enlarged to preserve eggs as well as fruit.
