Hank got as far as the fore cross tree*. There he could see over i the fog. and he didn't have to go any farther. To the starboard wero breakers, and the ship was almost into them! Hank knew then and there that thr ship wax doomed. A strong wind wax blowing them straight into those breakers and there was no sea room to make a getaway. By this time the wind had risen to a gale and coils of halliards and braces were being washed through the ports or over the side. At nine o'clock the ship ran aground with a shock that sounded like the Your Shoe Tells The Story Soft Styling New Trend in Fashion Hank caught a rope and was hauled aboard. report of a big gun. It threw the men flat on the deck and seas began breaking over the ship, carrying away two boats, the fo'csle and galley, and everything movable on deck. Water began pouring into the hold. In an hour, the fore top mast carried away and fell aft. The Stanley was rapidly breaking to pieces. "W e carried a crew of thirty-three,” says Hank, “ and the captain's wife and two-year-old son were aboard. We had two remaining boats, but there was no use trying to launch them then. No boat could live in that sea. We were grounded off Tex- el island, and we were all hoping that the lighthouse, located there, would sight us and send help. But personally. 1 did not s think the ship would hold together long.” All day long the seas battered the ship. The water in the hold was making the cotton and jute bales swell and the decks were bulging. Toward night they tried to launch a boat. Hank and three other seamen were in it when the seas began washing over it. Hank caught a rope and was hauled aboard when the boat capsized. The other three men were drowned. All this time, the gale was increasing in fury. Now the chart house was gone and the .seas were pouring into the cabin. The last remaining lifeboat was smashed. The crew took to the rig ging, and the captain’s wife climbed to the cross trees like a sailor while the captain brought the baby, wrapped in a shawl. Distress Rockets Save Endangered Men. The fog had lifted, and they could see the lighthouse on Texel Island, but there was no sign of help in sight. "With darkness coming on ," says Hank. ” 1 was sure our number was up. Night fell, and still we were marooned in the rigging. But at midnight, the wind abated considerably. The first mate, Mr. Steeves. and I, went down into the place where the cabins used to be and brought out a watertight case of distress rockets." Those rockets saved the day. They set off three in rapid succession, and a few moments later they saw a great blue flare go up in thr vicinity of the lighthouse—a signal that their rockets had been seen. But could help reach them? They didn’ t know. Morning came. Still the sea was empty and there was no relief in Sight. But at eight o'clock they sighted a sail and in half an hour a lifeboat from Texel island was hailing them. A line was thrown aboard, and 16 people including the captain's wife and baby, were taken aboard. Last Man to Jump O ff the Boat. Sixteen was all the boat would hold. In about an hour a ship's boat from the steamer Hercules of Amsterdam, arrived and took off the rest of the crew, including Hank. Hank was the last man to jump off thr ill-fated Stanley. The boat carried them through rough seas to the Hercules, and the Hercules landed them in Niru Dtep, Holland. There Hank learned that the Stanley had not been the o n ly unlucky ship in that night’ s storm. Five hundred fishermen had lost their lives in it Hank has quit the sea now and settled down ashore, but I wonder if once in a while he doesn't wish he were back on a rolling deck again, in spite of such things as gales and ships aground in the North Sea. How about it. Hank? C o p y rig h t— W NU S e rv ice . Soda Water, European Discovery Aerated water, popularly known as soda water, such as is served at American fountains, was a Euro pean discovery. The great scien tist, Priestley, discovered the meth od in 1772. Paul of Geneva and Schweppe of London, introduced such water commercially in 1790. Dr. Philip S. Physick. a Philadel phia doctor, is regarded as the in troducer of soda water into the United States. In 1807 he and a chemist, Townsend Speakman, made the forerunner of the soda fountain. The first use of fruit syr ups with aerated water is credited to Eugene Roussel, the owner of a perfumery shop in Philadelphia, early in the Nineteenth century. crep e or polka dot print as well aa in tubfast cottons like calico, per« ca le, gingham and linen.
