The
Wings
of the
Morning"
Having determined the immediate fu
ture of little "E. T.," whose shrunken
features were now placid in sleep, they
quietly sepnated. Brand flung himselt
wearily into a bunk to obtain a much
needed rest, and the others hurried tc
overtake the many duties awaiting
them.
Weather reports and daily journals
demanded instant attention. The oil
expenditure, the breakage of glass
chimneys, the consumption of stores,
the raeteorolesic-l records all must be
noted. An cedent lookout must be
maintained, signals answered or hoist
ed, everything kept spotlessly clean
and meals cooked. Until noon each day
a rock lighthouse is the scene of un
remitting uiiigence, and the loss of
nearly an hour and a half of Spence's
watch, added to the presence of the
baby and the constant care which one
or other of the two men bestowed on
her, made the remaining time doubly
precious.
About 9 o'clock Brand was awaken
ed from a heavy slumber by Jim's
hearty voice:
"Breakfast ready, eap'n. Corfee,
eggs an' haddick fit for the queen,
God bless her!" An baby's had another
pint of Jones' brew Lord love her lit
tle eyes, though I haven't seen 'em yetl
A minit ago Jones sung down to me
that the Lancelot has just cleared
Carn du."
The concluding statement brought
Brand to his feet The doctor, would

.was ended and the letter to Mrs.
Sheppard written.

uis ccact uubiousiy at first sight of "the
child.
"I don't know how she lived. She is
a mere skeleton," he said.
Brand explained matters and hinted
at his theory.
"Oh, the ways of nature are wonder
ful," admitted the doctor. "Sometimes
a man will die from an absurdly trivial
thing, like the sting of a wasp or the
cutting of a finger. . At others you can
fling him headlong from the Alps and
he will merely suffer a bruise or two.
Of course, this infant has an excep
tionally strong constitution or she
would have died days ago. However,
you have done right so far. I will see
to her proper nourishment during the
next few days. It is a most extraor
dinary case."-
Jones had managed so well that the
child's garments were dry and well
aired. Wrapped In a clean blanket,
she was lowered into the steamer's
boat, but the doctor, preferring to
jump, was soaked to the waist owing
to a slip on th3 weed covered rock.
The crew of the tugboat bailed out
the derelict and towed her to Pen
zance. That evening a fisherman brought a
note from Mrs, Sheppard. Among oth
er things, she wrote that the baby's
clothes were-beautifullyaa&.nd of
a very expensive type." She was" fever
ish, the doctor said, but the condition
of her eyes and lips would account for
tills, apart from the effects of prolong
ed exposure.
Brand read the. letter to- his mates
when the trio were enjoying, an-evening
pip oa the '"promenade,'' the outer
balcony under the. lantern. '
-Ba her oeooto don't atMSKMb"
observed Jim, "what are you'goW'to
call her?" '
"Trevillion," said Brand.
The others gazed at, him with sur
prise. The prompt announcement was
unexpected.
"I have told you about the fabled
land of Lyonnesse lying there beneath
the sea." he went on, pointing to the
dark blue expanse on. whose distant
confines the Scilly isles were silhou
etted by the last glow of the vanished
sun. "Well, the name of the only per
son who escaped from that minor del

"That settles it." cried Jim, brandish
ing his pipe toward Penzance. "I hope
as how Miss Enid Trevillion is asleep
an' doin well, an' that she'll grow up
to be both fair an' good. If she does,
she'll be better'n most women."
Brand made no reply. He went with
in to attend to the lantern. In five
minutes the great eyes of the Lizard,
the Longships and the Seven Stones
lightship were solemnly staring at
their fellow warden of the Gulf Bock,
while, In the far west, so clear was the
night, the single flash of St Agnes and
the double flash of the Bishop Illu
mined the sky.
CHAPTER III.
T the foot of a long flight of
steps leading from the boat
quay to toe placid waters of
Feasance harbor a stoutly built
craft mi moored. It had two oceu-
pants tfeta brfefet ternary morning,
and tfeey jys. eaBklaptfxv.iflawwe .to
i
appearance" o attract the attention or
the local squad of that great army of
lounrrers which seems to thrive in to
bacco blessed content at all places
where nwa go down to the sea In
ships.
The pal consisted of a weather beat
en fisherman and a girl.
The man was scarred and blistered
by wind and wave until he had attain
ed much outward semblance to his
craft. Nevertheless, man and boat
looked reliable. They were sturdy and
strong; antiqnated, perhaps, and greatly
in want of a new coat, but shaped on
lines to resist the elements together for
years to come. Ben- Pollard and his
pilchard driver, Daisy, were Cornish
celebrities of note. Not once, but
many times, had they been made im
mortalwith the uncertain immortal
ity of art by painters of the Newlyn
school.
The girl, an animated cameo, to
which the shaWiy picturesqueness ot
old Ben in his patched garments and
old Daisy in her unkempt solidity sup
plied a fitting background, merited the
tacit approval she received from the
pipe smokers.
Flaxen haired, blue eyed, with a face
of a delicate, flowerlike beauty, which
added to its mobile charm by the
healthy glow of a skin brightened and
deepened in tone by an abiding love of
the open air, she suggested, by her
attire, an artistic study of the color ef
fects derivable from the daringly trust
ful little plant which gave the boat its
name. She wore a coat and skirt of
green cloth, lightly hemmed and cuffed
with dark red braid. Her large white
hat was trimmed with velvet of a tone
to match the braid, and her neatly fit
ting brown boots and gloves were of
the right shade. Beneath her coat
there was a glimpse of a knitted jersey
of soft white wool, this being a tribute
to Jthe season, though a winter in
Lyonnesse can usually shrug Its com
fortable shoulders at the deceitful
yagarles,Df-tne Riviera

In the way of dairying and butter
making this section ia rapidly forging
ahead. A few months ago the second
creamery was Btarted in this city under
the name of the Corvallis Ice and Butter
Company. Some of our prophets shook
their heads over the outlook for the new
firm, but they kad no occasion to do so,
for business has been, far better than anv
person connected with the venture hd
hoped for. B. D. Arnold, a member ut
this company, inform a us that they have
been rushed from the time they started
and at present are operating night and
day. There is no use attempting a de
nial of the fact thatBenton county has a
splendid future in the business of dairy

A couple of days ago a peculiar thing
happened to Harry Miller. He had been
painting in the Little Gem cigar store of
Jack Milne and while thus engaged
spattered paint here and there where he
did not wish it. This he would remove
with a cloth and then put the cloth in
his pocket. Noon came and he went to
lunch with the paint rat; in his pocket,
where It remained until he returned
for his labors in the afternoon. Short y
after he started work on returning from
h B meal he realized he was getting
pretty warm about this particular pocket,
and investigation proved that his paint
rag was on nr. The cloth was nearly
all burned up, but the remainder was
promptly thrown 'into a tub of water.
Here seems to be a case of spontaneous
combustion, as Mr. Miller had no matches
in his pocket.
During the past week somebody was

However, carelessness such as the above
has cost many en innocent person his
life, so too much care cannot be exer

than to fire a gun at random from the
outskirts of the city, or anywhere else,
should not be allowed to possess firearms.

The law providing for the exemption
from taxation ef house holders' property
to the extent of $300 first went into ef
fect in 1854. Since that time it has been
continually in operation up to the present
time, with the exception of 1904, when
no exemption was made, due to an act of
the Legislature, which was subsequently
annulled. The decision ot the Supreme
Court rendered Tuesday holds that the
exemption law is unconstitutional. This
means that the tax list ot Multnomah
County will be increased approximately
$1,500,000, and the tax list of the entire
state approximately $6,000,600. , This
change will go into effect during the
present year and will necessitate re
yision o! the tax lists. . ,
