He always kept up bis exercise, diameter by feeding it into other ma- es which wind the thread up very tightly, A process of this kind is used for making the larger size twines and ropes, and for heavy ca- bles for towing ships, For making the thread that is used in clothing, another preliminary proc- ss must be used, In this a wide sheet of moistened wood pulp is fed into @ compression roller under an- other sheet of either cotton or wool- len fleece of the same width, Both sheets are quite soft, so that after they have been forced through the heavy rollers they will come out with their fibres interengaged and in the form of one solid web, The duplex web so formed is then placed In a cutting machine and divided into long, narrow strips.

From the time I joined I believe I thought Nolan was a sort of lay chaplain—a cbaplain with a blue coat. I never asked about him, Everything in the #bip was strange to me, I knew it was green to ask questions, and I euppose I thought there was a “Plain-Buttons” on every ship. We had him to dine in our mess once a week, and the caution was given that op that day nothing was to be suid about home. But if they had told us not to #ay anything about the planet Mars or the Book of Deuteron- omy, I should not have asked why; there were a great many things which secmed to me to bave as little reason, I first came to understand anything about “the man without a country” one day when we overhauled a dirty ttle schooner which had slaves on board. An officer was sent to take charge of her, and, after a few min- utes, he sent back his boat to ask that some one might join him who could speak Portuguese. We were all looking over the rail when the mes- sage came, and we all wished we could interpret, when the Captain asked "Who spoke Portuguese?” But none of the officers did; and just as the Captain was sending forward to ask if any of the people could, Nolan stepped out and said he should be glad to interpret, if the Captain wished, as he understood the lan- guage. The Captain thanked him, fitted out another boat and in this boat it was my luck to go, When wo got there, it was such a scene as you seldom see, and never want to, Dirt beyond account, and chaos run loose in the midst of the dirt, There were not @ great many of the negroes; but by way of making what there were understand that they were free, Vaughan had had their handcuffs and anklecuffs knocked off, and for convenience sake, was putting them upon the rascals of the schooners crew. The negroes were, most of them, out of the hold, and swarming all round the dirty deck, with @ central throng syrrounding Vaughan and addressing him in every dialect, and patois of a dialect, from the Zulu click up to the Parisian of Beledeljereed. As we came on deck, Vaughan looked down from @ hogshead, on Begins on This The Patrol of the Sun Dance Trail A Big, Vital Story of Life in the Northwest WHERE DID You GET THAT MONEY 2 LATER, | | NOW | CAN 00 SoM ACTIVE WORK Too.

AND STILL LATER Revealing the Strange Atonement of a Famous Traitor which he had mounted in desperation, and said: “Kor God's love, ts there anybody who can make these wretches under- stand something? The men gave them rum, but that did not quiet them. I knocked that big fellow down twice, and that did not soothe him. And then I talked Choctaw te all of them and I'll be hanged if they understood that as well as they un- derstood the English.” Nolan said he could speak Portu- guese, and one or two fine looking Kroomen were dragged out, who, as it had been found already, had worked for the Portuguese on the coast at Fernando Po. “Tell thom they are free," said Vaugban; “and tell them that these rascals are to be banged as soon as we can get rope enough,” GR /OLAN “put that into Spanish” —that 1s, he explained it in such Portuguese as the Kroomen could understand, and they tn turn to such of the negroes as could understand them, ‘Then there was a yell of delight, clinching of fists, leaping and dancing, kissing of Nolan's feet, and a genoral rush made to the hogvhead by way of spontaneous worship of Vaughan, as the deus ex machina of the occaston. “Tell them,” said Vaughan, well pleased, “that I will take them all to Cape Palmas.” This did not answer so well, Cape Palmas was practically as far from the homes of most of them as New Orleans or Kio Janeiro was, that ts, they would be eternally separated from home there. And their inter- preters, a8 we could understand, in- stantly sald, “Ah, non Palmas,” and began to propose infinite other ex- pedienta in most voluble language. Vaughan was rather disappointed at this result of his liberality, and asked Nolan eagerly what they said, The drops stood on poor Nolan's white for ad, as he hushed Lie men down and sald: “He says, ‘Not Palmas” He says, ‘Take us home, take us to our own country, take us to our own house take us to our own plckaninnies and our own women.’ He says bo has an old father and mother who will die If they do not see him.

J, who did not understand anything of the passion involved in it, saw that the very elements were meiting with fer- vent heat, and that something was to pay somewhere, Even the negroes themselves stopped howling, as they saw Nolan's agony, and Vaughan's almost equal agony of sympathy. As quick as he could get words he said: “Tell them yes, yes, yes; tell them they shall go to the Mountains of the Moon, if they will. If I wail th schooner through the Great White Desert, they shall go home!” And after some fashion Nolan said #0. And then they all fell to kissing him again, and wanted to rub bis nose with theirs, But he could not stand it long; and getting Vaughan to say he might go back, he beckoned mo down into our boat. As we lay back in the stern sheets and the men gave way, he sald to me: "Youngster, let that show you what it Is to be without @ family, without @ home, and without @ coun- try.

And for your country, boy,” and the words rattled in his throat, “and for that flag,” and he pointed to the ship, “never dream a dream but of serving her as he bide you, though the service carry you through a thousand hells. No matter what happens to you, no matter who flatters you or who abuses you, never look at another flag, never let a night pase but you pray God to bless that flag.

They gathered the material for thelr nest very early in the morning when few folks were aotir excepting Bobble and Bess, who would not have missed such a@ treat for any- thing.

But when the home was finished (in a few days) she bathed and combed out each feather carefully, «fier whieh she looked quite as glossy and (rim as when Mr. Robin wooed und won her for bis own. Bob and Boss were perfectly de- lighted when about four days after Mrs. Robin began to incubate her four sky-blue eggs four bungry mouths showed themselves.

And to see them inconsideratoly squeaking for food even while the de- voted parents spread their wide wings to shield these tender nursliings from the direct noonday sun was comical indeed.
