One fine morning the man was miss- ing and nothing was heard of him for a fortnight. The wife pretended to be in great distress, so much so that when | his body was found in a small bay sur- rounded by rocks at low water no one liked to tell her—more especially as the finding was accompanied with what | they thought would shock her dread- fully, for when the poor fellow was pulled out of the water a great quan- tity of small conger eels fell on the sands from his body; the fact was, he was full of them! At last a friend undertook to break | the intelligence and receive the widow's | instructions. This he did, not omitting to men- tion the eels. The story told, he asked what were | to- | vancouver. gether with the rest of her friends, to | her wishes, as he was anxious, obey her orders. The widow removed her handker- chief from her eyes and murmured out | in the Channel Island Anglo-Norman tongue: “Send home the eels and set him again; I am very fond of eels!”—Spare Moments. ————— STEAMERS TJ ARRIVE. _STE 3 FroM Peru. |China and Japan.
