With it* shields of iron ari l falchions k?n,
As over the plain it spe.? Is,
Like a proud triumphal car.
Like a chariot of war.
With foaming, panting stoxls.

The warning and goes in quest
Of his mate; together they fly.
Now circling low, now high
Above their rush-hidden nest.

And lie withered on the ground.
Thus the son* of toil their tasks fulfill.
Lightened by man's inventive skill;
But a spirit of sweetness bath flown.
That haunted the green highways
G' the old time haying days.
Ere the iron-wrought mower was known.
When the summer day3 with song were
blithe.
And the sturdy mower whet his scythe,
And the b.'st man, never loth.
Led the haying crew with pride
Through tho field's sweet-scented tide,
Turning tho double swath.
Close followed by toy?, bare-foot and

Joyously sprcn ling the winrows down;
Thus the toilers from early morn
Cheerily filled each hour
Ever wntchful for a sign of shower,
Till tiesouud of the dinner horn.

For a shield of grass to mark its nest
By tho mower was kindly spared,
And he stays hi3 brawny arm.

A nine years.
* Bought it in Liverpool
when I was second mate of the Julia
A. Smith. And now I have put out n
month's earnings for a new one. What
possessed me 1 don't know."
And so the captain went on.
Now, Captain Sprowl was uot, as you
might think from the name, a bald
bended old man with bushy whiskers.
No; names arc very misleading. Instead,
lie was tall and slender, with r
sandy mustache, ami had not a gray
hair in Ins head He came from Maine,
and although but thirty years old, he
had been for six years captain or the
Edna Dunn, now lyiug at Constitution
wharf, in Boston, discharging her cargo
of sugar.
"Well," puffed the captain,, "nothing J
to do now but to get rid of the old se.x- I
taut. I should go ashore next time if I [
had two sextants to navigate by. Must I
work the old oil on some landlubber or i
somebody.''
The package was lying on an old newspaper
which he had read through and
through on his last trip out.
"The very thing!" said he. "I'll put
a notice in the paper?'Sextant for sale,
cheap,' and if somebody don't bite at
it, I miss my guess."
The next morning the only thiug the
captain could see in the paper was this:
Sextant for silo by a ship captAin.na.irlvn
ew an I in pjrfect order; will ba soli
cheap. Address O.. 41 Olobj olflce.
And now my story's begun.
Etta Bourne had been at work in a
millinery store in Boston for nearly two
years. ?ho and her older sister Annio
had learned the trade with the village
milliner down in Keunebuuk.
Bui. Annie, who had long been the
belle of the village, not married, and
Etta concluded to try her fortune in
Boston.
She was full of ambition.
So it fell that in her two years in the
millinery store she stu lie 1 shorthand
and typewriting, with the intention of
U' Cm,herself to bt a confidential clark.
On Sunday she saw this advertisement
:
for Sale?Jones's Premier Typewriter at
hilt price; be-ni use 1 less than a month; in
por.fcct order. Address O., 47 Globe ofll.'e,
Etta llouine, being a Maine Yankee,
knew a burgaiu when she saw it. She
wanted to own a typewriter, and so she
wrote a brief note addresse i to "O., 47
Globe Oilice," a?kiug where the machine
could he seen, and dropped it into the
letter box as she went to work Monday
morning.
Now, I cnid at the beginning that the j
advertising r!erk was to blame. Per- i
haps the mistake was partly that of Etta |
Bouine. At any rate it will never be j
known.
The clerk wa; sorting the replies and
putting them in their itpropriate boxes.
When he came to Etta Bourne's letter to
' (>. 47," l c lead it "O. 41" and put it
in the pigeonhole as such.
That was a very, very little mistake,
of course, but vou who have noticed
how things go iu this world of ours have
discovered that thn most serious changein
the course of our lives come about
from just such little happenings.
For it was that very day that Captain
sr rowl advertised his sextant for sale.
And Captain Sprowl was "O 41."
w the tali captuin was a very busy ,
rnntJ, and it was Tate fTiAl afTefnOou before
lie went to tho office to gather in
the replies from people who were anxious
to huy a sextant.
But the sextant, murkct was apparently
rather dull, for all tho clerk could
irivo liini was one solitary latter. Thn
captain tore the envelope opon and tossed
it aside.
"I snw your advertisement in the
Globe,1' rend the captain. "I wish to
buy a good second-hand machine of
standard make, and if the ono you offer
is in perfect repair and the prica is satisfactory,
perhaps <vc can trade. But I
cannot give more than $50, and it you
ask more you uec?.l not reply to this. 1
Send your address, stating where ma- |
chine can be soon, to II. E. Bourne, 450 J
Winter street." \
Well," toliloquized the captaiu, J
"I've got one answer, anyhow. But "
what docs a woman want of a sextant? \
for this is certainly a woman's writing! j
She seems to be in earnest though. ?
"And $50'. Conscience! I never ex- \
peeled to got more thau $25. Well, .
she'll have to come on board, I suppose, ~
so I'll scud her ruy address." Aud
standing at the public desk ho wrote: K
H. V.. Rourno?'>ear Miss: Yours in reply
to :nv advortis*ment iu tb? Glob? Is at fi
baud, Plcaro call on m? aboard the bark
E<lua Dunn, Constitution wharf, batwesn 9 b
and 9. Edwin K. Sprowd, Captain.
The next afternoou about 4 o'clock a ?
trim little flgure walked rapidly over the
rough planks of Constitution wharf.
"It's a queer place to ttnd a second- '
hand typewriter," thought Etta Bourne,
"but I suppose the captniu got tired of
it, or couldn't use it because tho vessel n
pitched so, or something like that." b
She saw the gilt letters, "Eloa
Dunn." A fat, bald-headed man with a S
little gingham apron on looked out the tl
door of a box-like houie in the middle
of the vessel. e
A broad plank extended from tho 6(
wharf acro?3*the bulwarks. Tho man in
the apron came forward. t!
"I wish to see Captain Sprowl," said g
she.
"Vis, mim. Come right aboard, mini,
on tbnt there plank, mini. The captain ^
is down in his cabin, inim."
Etta Bourne stepped haitily along the
plauk, and the stout cook, putting his *
broad palms under her elbows, lifted her 1
lightly to the deck.
"This way, mim," and he led hor
around to the after-companionway. t,
They went down the brass-railed
stairs, and as the cook knocked at the t
( door Etta noticed how spick and span i
I everything looked.
As a matter of fact the captain, in ]
view of inenaory's visit, had" kept the 8
cook scouring the wood and brasswork c
all the forenoon.
"Captain, 6ir, a lady wishes to see f
J<?" r
The captain, with half an hour's work
in his four-in-hand, bowed respect*
fully.
"I am Miss Bourne," begau Etta. 44I 1
came in response to your advertisement I
in the Globe about a?" J
"Yes, ma'ain,"said thecaptain, "this *
is the place. Will you take a seat?"
As Etta sank into an easy chair she '
glanced about her in astonishment. She ]
' had no idea that these little low houses '
on ship's deck was so comfortable as 1
this.
Here was a dainty little sitting room,
with a rich, soft carpet, a hanging lamp
of elaborate design, huge plush easy
chairs and sofa, a pretty rattan rocker b
and a table strewn with tho latest u
magazines. v
"T Beg your pardon," said the tall
captain, who had been looking curiously ~
at her ; 4'but are you not related to Miss ~
Annie Bourne, of Kenncbunk?'"'
44 Why, yes, indeed; she i9 my own c
lister," answered Etta, with animation. A
"I used to go to school with her in
the old Berwick Academy,years ago; but c
I didn't know she had a sister." c
"Oh, yes, I weut to the academy my- f
self, but it was after she was graduated.'" i
"And was old Brown principal when f
you were there?"
r roin mis iney wcai on xor ten rain- B,
utcs, and each knew so many thnt the M
other did that thoy soon became old ac- w
quaintanccs. Fj
The captain at once noticed that she js
was a remarkably neat and pleasant little
woman, ami Etta Bourne thought the ^
captain a tine-looking man, tall and
strong. }]
41 Well, Captain Sprowl," said she, {}
finally, "I niusn't forget what I came n
for. I believe you have a machiuo that ,
you wish to sell?**
44 Why, yes," said the captain, wondering
what on earth this attractive "
young woman could waut of a sextant. fil
4'And how did you come to want to c
sell it," pursued she, wondering what 11
use this sea-captaiu had for a typewriter. (
"Well, the fact is," said the captain, 1
reddening a little. 4II bought a new one
the other day when I really didn't need
it, and of course, I haven't, uso for two. F
And," continued he, "since turn about a
is fair play, I am going to n^k you what r;
you want of one?"
"To earn n living with," said she. a1
Tho captain looked puzzle 1 as he went (t
into the stateroom to get the sextant. ^
lie had heard that women were becoming
the rivals of men in almost every trado ^
and profession, and he vaguely wondered
if Miss Bourne was intending soraotime j,
to become Captain Bourne.
"Well," said he, coming back and ^
holding the sextant out towards her, ^
"here it is. Tho ivory on the scale is a f
little yellow, and the vernier rrla3s has a
little crack acrcm the other edge, but?"
Ho stopped. Miss Bourne was hold- 1
ing up her bauds in amazement.
"Why?why?what is this?** she 1
I stnmmere.J. "
"Why, it's a sextant," said the cap- ^
tain. "I thought you knew what that 1
looked like." J
"But there's some misunderstand '
here. I don't have any use for a sextant.
It was a typewriter that I understood R
you had to sell." ^
"A typewriter,"said the captain aston- ft
ished in turn. "Why, no. Here's the fi
advertisement," and iie put the paper in f
her hands. "
How, as I have said, Etta Bourne was p
a Maine Yankee, and in less than ten
seconds she had guessed how the mistake
occurred. I
"Well, now," said the captain. "I n
thought it was awful fuuoy that a woman n
should want to buy a sextant. Now you y
have disappointed me, I don't see how I p
am going to sell it, unless I ieave it at w
the instrument maker's and let him get o
what he can for it." cl
Oddly euough, from this point this
story runs along so naturady that you can 0
tell it yourself.
The tall captain escorted Miss Bourne T
up town, called on her two or three times y
while ho was in port, corresponded with
her when he was away, and in leas than
a year this notice appeared: "j

is coat-tail*, a velvet collar and revcrs o;
te woolen material. The vest may ba
attoned to the corsage. The sleeves have
kring velvet cuffs. Such a costume as this
lines in very well for knockabout service
firing the summer, and its masculine char:teristics
give it a neatness and tiimnoss
pry becoming to a good ligure. With it
iiiv in: null! n uninn n n;ii ill ruilgll straw,
i nearly a? possible of the same shide as
le dress. In no one particular do a the
ell dressed woman show her good taste in
ways wearing the right sort of a gown on
ic right occasion than when traveling or
oving about in public places. There is a
eat deal in this. It enables her to prerve
h' r nervour equilibrium under tr3*ing
rcumetances. It is astonishing how some
omen begin to fret and fume the moment
iey sat out on a Journey. I attribute it
rgely to the fart that they are not properly
eased, they are too warmly clad, or they
ear a dress that wrinkles or spots easily,
>d before they have gone 50 raUea they
esent an untidy and mussed up appcarice.
Not so with the woman who is attirI
in a neat and suitable traveling dgess.
othing disturbs her serenity. The very
ist refuses to stick to her, and at the end
' her journey she alights from the train
ith a am le that is comforting to look
son. Her friends welcome her with great
irdiality, for they feci instinctively that
ie will fit imo the household and add to
it general comfort of all.
On the other band, the woman who is
veltering in a heavy and unsuitable dress
ses her temper, her Batch el, her baggage
leeks and her patience, and usually sue
eds in robbing other people of much of I
icir comfort. I once knew n woman who |
