THE ICEBERG* [CONTINU KD.] '^One night, it must have been on j the twelfth ont, the boy was on the look out, and came to me; 'Stevens, says he, *I see a sail, I think.' I didn't call out, 'cause of waking Sands; beseemed getting dull-like. I started up and looked "where he pointed, and, sure enough, there she was, about half a mile to wind 'urd; the wind had shifted a little to the East. I shouted and waked Sands. Poor fellow! he was nearly mad, screaming and shouting frightfully. " 'I tell you what it is, Sands,' says I I, 'you're doing yourself no good by this; we must make 'em see us if we're to do any good. Get some more of that shirt of yours f?r a bigger wick to this, and then go round to fetch the other lamps.' ' 'He got a bit of the shirt, and we got the lamps together. It must havo made 'em see? I Bhould have thought, but they didn't seem to; and after about half an hour, they steered away from us. ' ' You see it was about the last thing to think of that any one should be on an iceberg so far South as we were, and a berg's a thing to steer clear of, if you can. ' 'It gave us all a queer feeling when we lost sight of her. The boy and Sands pried. I saw it was no use being down-hearted about it, though I'm fraid I cursed the skipper of that vessel pretty much; so I made 'em take the lamps back to their places, and took the rest of the boy's watch myself. "Poor youngster-he cried hirr3elf to sleep. You see we'd had twelve days of it, and not a dry rag on us since tho first day. Our skins were quite sore and covered all over with little pimples; and round the waist and neck, where the clothes rubbed, there were quite sores. You try a poultice anywhere for twelve days, and see what it'll do for you. Poor Sands was worse than either of us. 1 'So we went on, day after day plenty of food-seal beef. "Some days we saw ships, some days none. It was weary work, but I kept 'em up to it; there's nothing like regular work to keep you from brooding over unpleasantness-no- I thing. Sometimes we got a shot at some birds, but more than half fell [ in the water. "On the eighteenth day we were nearly thrown down by the breaking off of a small pointed piece. "It broke off and splashed into the water with an awful noise, and almost sunk, and then came up again, and nearly shook us to pieces as it rubbed against our piece. Next day it sepa? rated and got farther off, and on the second day it was hull down, and we lost it at night. "That was the twenty-first day, and thc sun was hot-not warm, but hot. We got a few dry clothes by stretch? ing them out to wind'ard on the ram? rods, but they got sopped again at night. "Sands gave up on this night-he couldn't take his watch, he was so bad. We must have got into warmer water, too, for instead of rising out of the water, it began to sink-more one side than the other, too, so that the tracks were getting too slippery to be safe. Another thing I noticed was, that the whole affair turned round sometimes the other way, and then again was quite still for a day at a j time.

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN; Nothing is so uncertain as life. No provision is perfect that is contingent upon the duration of your life, which is not immediate. The only IMMEDIATE provision is that provided bv LIFE INSURANCE. It provides a SECURITY to the family of every man engaged in business. It is a species of property that costs nothing but the premiums; it requires no repairs, has no taxes, calls for no oatlays, and its conditions do not change. Call on H. E.
