There did not seem to be much hope of rescue. They had rigged up an oar with an oilskin coat made fast to the top of it to serve as A signal of distress, and hoisted it amidships. The thirst was terrible, Allain drank water from the sea, and only became niore thirsty., Hendes broke off bits of woodwork from the dory and chew- ed them, There were no fish aboard, and neither men had any intention of tishing. They did not even pray. “Ma foi, non!” They had too many other things to think about. There did not seem much left to do but die, when the France ias | sighted. ‘Then, how they did row, for fear the ship might pass them by without sceing them! Petrova Misses Rescue.
