BY HERMAN MELVILLE. Herman Melville, 1819-91, was an Ameri- an vele: o r and novelist, author of “Moby Dick,” “Typee,” “Omoo,” etc. I and my friend Toby, strangers in a group of savages who might be canni- bals for all we knew, could only do as we were told, and hoped for the best. So when we were conducted one night to a barbaric pavilion we could not guess what might be in store for us. We had a meal. cluded, & pipe was lighted, which passed from mouth to mouth, and, yielding to | its soporific influence, the quiet of the place and the deepening shadows of approaching night, my companion and I sank into a kind of drowsy repose, while the chief of the tribe and Kory- Kory, whose special care was myself, scemed to be slumbering beside us. I awoke from an uneasy nap about midnight, as I supposed, and, raising myself partly from the mat, became aware that we were enveloped in utter darkness. ‘Toby lay still asleep, but our late companion had disappeared. The only sound that interrupted the silence of the place was the asthmatic breathing of the old men who reposed at a little distance from us. Beside them, as well as I could judge, there was 1o one else in the house. Apprehensive of some evil, T roused my comrade, and we were engaged in a whispered conference concerning the unexpected withdrawal of the native, when all at once from the depths of the grove, in full view of us where we lay, shoots of flame were seen to rise, and in & few moments illuminated the surrounding trees, casting by contrast into still deeper gloom the darkness around us. While we continued gazing at this and fro before the flames, while others, dancing and capering about, looked like S0 _many demons. no small degree of trepidation, I said to my companion: hat can all this mean, Toby?" h, nothing.” replied he. “Getting the fire ready, I suppose.” “PFire!” I exclaimed, while my heart took to beating like ‘a trip-hammer. “What fire?” “Why, the fire to cook us, to be sure. ‘What else would the cannibals be kick- ing up such a row about if it were not for that?” “Oh, Toby, have done with your jokes. This is no time for them. Some- :,ihlxlx is about to happen, I feel confi- ent.” THE EVENING STORY The repast con- | s'ght, dark figures appeared, moving to | Regarding this new phenomenon with | la s Works of Literature dignantly. “Did you ever hear me joke? Why, for what do you suppose the devils have been feeding us up in this kind of style during the last three days, unless it ‘were for something that you are too much frightened to talk about? Look at that Kory-Kory there! Has he not { been stuffing you with his confounded | mushes, just in the way they treat | swine before they kill them? Depend upon it, we Wwill be eaten this blessed night, and there is the fire we shall be roasted by.” This view of the matter was not at all calculated to allay my apprehen- | sions, and 1 shuddered when I reflected that we were indeed at the mercy of a tribe of cannibals, and that the dread- ful contingency to which Toby had alluded was by no means beyond the bounds of possibility. | “There! "I told you s0? They are coming for us!” exclaimed my com- panion the next moment, as the forms of four of the islanders were seen in| bold relief against the flluminated back- | ground, mounting the pavilion and ap- | proaching toward us. | | They came on moiselessly—nay, | stealthily—and glided along through the | gloom that surrounded us as if about to spring upon some object they were fear- ful of disturbing before they should make sure of it. Gracious Heavens! The horrible reflections which crowded | upon me at that moment! A cold sweat stood upon my brow, and, spellbound with terror, I awaited my fate! Suddenly the silence was broken by the well remembered tones of Mehevi, and at the kindly accents of his voice | my fears were immediately dissipated. “Tommo, Toby, ki ki?"" (eat). He had waited to address us until he had assured himself that we were both |awake, at which he seemed somewhat surprised. “Ki, ki, is 1t?” sald Toby in his gruft tones. “Well, cook us first, will you? | | But what's this?” he added as another vage appeared, bearing before him a rge trencher of wood, containing some Ikind of steaming meat, as appeared | from the odors it diffused and which | he deposited at the feet of Mehevi. “A baked baby, 1 daresay!” said Toby. “But I will have none of it, never mind what it is. A pretty fool I should make | of myself, indeed, waked up here in the middle of the night, stuffing and guz- zling, and all to make a fat meal for a parcel of bloody-minded cannibals one of these mornings. No, I see what they are at very plainly, so I am resolved [to starve myself into a bunch of bones and gristle, and then, if they serve me |up, they are welcome! But, I say, Tommo, you are not going to eat any ! “Jokes, indeed!" exclaimed Toby in- of that mess there in the dark are you? Why, how can you tell what it is?" “By tasting it, to be sure,” said I, masticating a morsel that Kory-Kory | had just put into my mouth, as he al- ways did, after some custom of theirs, “and excellently good it is, too, very much like veal “A baked baby. by the soul of Capt Cook!” burst forth Toby with amazing vehemence. “Veal! Why. there never was a calf on the island tiil you landed. I tell you, you are bolting down mouth- fuls from a dead Happar's carcass, as| sure as you live, and no mistake!” The Happars Wwere a neighboring tribe. Emetics and lukewarm water! What a sensation in the abdominal regions! Sure enough, wh could the fiends incarnate have obtained meat? But I resolved to satisfy myself at all haz- ards, and, turning to Mehevi, T soon made the ready chief understand that I wished a light to be brought w I gazed eage into the vessel and recognized the muti- lated remains of a juvenile porker! “Puarkee!” exclaimed Kory-Kory. | looking complacently at the dish. And | from that day to this I have never for- gotten that such is the designation of a pig in the Typee lingo. First Student Worker. Zachariah Brigden, who entered Har- vard in 1653 at 14 and was graduated at 18, was the first student in North America who worked his way through college, says the Buffalo Evening News. | One of the many payments to him re- corded in the steward's books show and waytinge” 1 pound, 2 shillings and xpence—the first known case of an | American earning part of his expenses by ringing the college bell and waiting n table in the common Charged with | Laziness— Guilty Simply of Acidity! More than one man today is judged and unjustly penalized becaus of a not understood physical condition | rather than any lack of willingness or ability. | ""So many of us are only half our- | selves, only fifty per cent efficient, be- | caute’ we are victims of an_insidious | condition of acidity! That persistent | tired feeling—that clouded mind—that |lack of dash and fire—that missing | punch that decides so many situations | in business—are all usually due to an acid system. Acidity is brought on by our unnat- | ural eating, excessive smoking and ir- regular hours. It impairs digestion, and causes fermentation and putrefac- tion in_the intestines and drags us | down physically and mentally. Begins Where Milk of Magnesia Leaves Off A remarkable new corrective of acid- ity has been developed by a famous | 100-year-old pharmaceutical house in | Germany. As an acid corrective it be- | gins where milk of magnesia and bi- carbonate of soda leave off. This new, improved magnesia comes |in the form ef small white tablets | called Magnesia Oxoids which do not have to be shewed, but may be swal- | lowed whole. Magnesia Oxoids, upon contact with {the acid in the stomach, generate | mascent, or active ozygen. Now, sctive | oxygen, as any doctor will tell you,| when generated within the digestive | tract does just the things required for | acidity. It stimulates the secretion of the alkaline mucus. It checks the putrefaction and fermentation in the | gastro-intestinal canal. It exercises a | | stfmulating effect upon the activities | of the intestinal walls and aids the | movement of the bowels, | All three effects are necessary to the | true relief of acidity and Magnesia Oxoids supply them in s perfectly natural manner. 5-Day Acid Test See for yourself how much acid has | to do with your run-down condition and that persistent feeling of tiredness.
