A HOUSECLEANING CAROL.
an extraordinary person, surely, unlike
any doctor ever beard of before or
since.
All through the long, tierce gale, he
had tieen divided between an agony of
terror for himself and for his belong
ings.
With the prospect, perhaps, of get
ting ashore somewhere, be had i>ut on
all the clothes he could, and kept on
packing and repacking the remainder
in a frenzy of anxiety. When he found
in the eml that he could not take It all,
his agitation was pitiable. Only the
stern, sharp order of the captain made
him leave it and the shiji at last. But
nothing could s«q>arate him from one
treasure, his beaver hat. He went down
with it into the boat, carrying the bund
box in bis own hand and keeping It be-

Even in that moment of danger and
anxiety the sailors could not restrain a
laugh and he was tumbled Into Ills seat
with good-natured pity.
For the sailor is a charitable man,
and Judges accordingly.
But the tenderest pity and solicitude
of every man but one in the ship were

The first mate's wife, and the only
woman aboard.
The gentle, retiring, little creature,
had lieen married a few weeks before,
in Quebec, to the handsome, insolent
bully, who had not even the bully's re-
d«*emiiig trait of regard for women.
How such a woman could ever have
married such a man was one of the
mysteries that nobody could fathom.
Ami not only had she married him,
but she worshipped the very planks on
which he trod. Yet even her innocent,
ignorant faith was beginning to be
shaken.
Her

shamed her openly by harsh words and
gestures, and the men who heard liim
went off dumb with rage to swear out
of sight, but whatever she felt In her
heart the loyal little soul would find
excuse for all and make no sign.
How anything in tlie shape of man
could ill-treat anything so sweet in the
shape of woman was a thing no man
could understand.
All through the gale, with its dally
discomforts of cold and wet, she had
never uttered a word of complaint. At
the height of the storm, with its at

“About seven years ago a disease

I became very nervous, could not walk

I could not control the direction of
