A -fortnight - paasedi Th-- pangs -of hunger had become keen. The sailors began to curse their Juck. They scanned the horlson, and at last a Joyful sight met their gase. It waa a steamer, and they seemed to lay near her course. As she approached nearer a hard luck atory was flashed from the pennant of tho schooner, and the stranger hove along- side. She proved to be the Gaelic, of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company fleet of Oriental liners.- She was re turning to Ban Franolsee from Hong Kong. Flour, beef and various kinds of foodstuff were thrown on board the becalmed craft After an exchange of courtesies the big liner sailed on to ward her destination. . Thla happened off the California coast, presumably about 200 miles west of San Diego. It was fully the calm died and waa succeeded by a wind.

Anderson says that their supply of provisions were short, but h believes they would have pulled through all right without assistance. The sail ors talk differently. They say that their rations were so limited that they would have run out In a very short time. All their tobacco had been used up, and the Gaelic was even considerate enough to leav them a good supply of . the weed.

The sailors declare that they are going to lay the matter before the shipping commissioner of ilm port, and make some one pay for the , grub they never got.

Ym!jesHe'WeklyT- In the opinion of Mrs. F. H.'WIlHam- n, a woman who has devoted much at tention to the study of the characters-1 tics of her sex, the ideal woman la one without an Ideal. Not only is ahe easy to live with, but she 1 worth living for. She Is the skylight in the edifice of the human life. She has no history. She has no story. She is the rhythm which transform the prose of life Into poetry. She wears a reasonable hat at matinee. "She Is too clever to talk of woman'a rights; she takes them. She wear frocks that match her hair; she does not dye her hair to' match her frocks. She la th sphinx that smiles at tha trouble man takes to unravel the mys tery of the pyramids when he might be doing something with the money in it. She helps her-husband to build up a future for himself and never ' seeks to rake up the past. She believes that a theory is the proper fortress of the im mature, and that a clergyman may atlll be a man. She know that when - men talk about a woman being good-looking they mean that she is well-dressed. though they don't know it. She does not Insist upon her husband's eating up the cucumber sandwiches left ' over from on of her parties; she eata them herself and suffers in silence. 'She Is not such a fool as to fancy that anyone is ever convinced by argument ' She does not reason. She loves. She does not believe that a man can love only once or only one. . She herself prefer loving much to loving many. 8he believe that the first woman was a hieroglyphic inscription and that every woman is but a "squeeie" of Eve.

Why I It that many people of th stag will continually use slang and Illiterate language in speaking their lines?
