This thought followed him day and night.

Ono day, in the hiring, an emigrant ship bound for America appeared at the month of the river. Ola nnekod togothi'v Inn traps and went up to Oeslnio's to say good-W .

Ho met Birgit in the birch grove bemud the bam. It was the time when the bnds were bursting and the swallows had just

returned.

"Well, Ola, where are yen going?" ulie asked as she saw him coming with bundle and staff in hand. "To Anierioa." "America!" she cried. "America!"

The answer seemed to frightened her. She turned pale and grabbed hold of a birch-treo for support. Ho watched her narrowly. "What oro you going to do in America, Ola?" she asked, softly. "Change my skin," he replied with a vif. or that startled her. "Oh, it is I who have put you up to this, Ola," she whispered tremulously. "Yes, thank God! it was you," he cried, drawing her close up to him; "and if I come hack within iivo years, with n changed skin, will you promise to wait for me?" "I promise," she whispered, weeping quietly npon his shoulder. 'Then may God bless you, Birgit," he cried, gazing into her face with radiant eyes, "for you have saved me from hell." HI. Five years from that day a young man was seen hastening up the hills des t Oestmo. He had a big slouch hat on his head and ho was well dressed! His face wan strong, square and determined; his

"Gentlefolks!" he cried, with a happy

his little daughter Birgit was so fond othwa ne naa flung into her hand,

that he decided to keey him.

When Ola was 12 years old he could kick

a cap from a nail high above his head, and he could spit as far as any man. Birgit

practiced this accomplishment by the Hour, with indifferent success. She was so fond of Ola that everything he did seemed ad

mirable. Once she swore, and Out was

whipped for it.

"It is time now to send tna; uaa ooy

away," said the mother.

"Send him to the mountains, said n: s

father; "he is big enough now to herd the

cattle."

So Ola was sent to the mountains. Bare ¬

footed and bare-headed, with a pair of

leather-patched knee-breeehes hanging npon one suspender, he roamed with his alpine horn over the wide mountain plaint,

ate berries, canght nsh, and was nappy. He hardly thonght once of the little girl down in the valley, though it pleased him when the saeter maids told him that she had cried for him.

One day late in the summer she came up

to the saetor with her mother. She whs carried up on horseback in a basket. When she saw him she flung herself down upon

Oie grass and screamed with delight.

"Get up, chad," said her mother; "dox. t

She set up a little shamefaced and h id

"You, Ola! who was on the parish? Then you must have changed your skin."

"That was what I went to America :;or, he answered, laughing. The church lay half way up the hillside.

There Ola sat down to rest, for he had walked far and was tired. Presently he heard music up under the ledge of the forest; there were one clarionet and sereral fiddles. A bridal party! Yes, there was

the bride, with the silver crown upon her

head and shining brooches upon her bosom.

Pistol shots were heard, and singing and

laughter. The procession casne nearer.

The birds flew up frightened alone tne

roadside, and the squirrels climbed chatter

ing into tho tops of the fir trees. Now the master of ceremonies opened tho church

doors wide and went to meet the bride and groom. Ola sat still, like a rock; but a strance numbness came over him: the

ground billowed under his feet. As the party drew near to the gate of the church

yard, he arose and stood, tall and grave, in

the middle of the road. I lie nddier

.iMAl.iya IK J.AItKADOH. Sealing, one of ihe peculinr industries of Esquimaux Point and Natashquan, is the most vonturosome occupation of tho Labrador coast. Heals are taken in three ways by hunting them along the bays and shores in boats or on the ice, by netting them as fish are taken, and by following them out to fcoa in vessels and killing them on the floes. I sometimes met a boat sailing about the islands, and boys with two men aboard eagerly watching the water and the rocks for the harbor seals. Dressed

in coats and skull-caps made of seal

skin, they often creep along the rooks

with the motions of the seal, and decoy the animal by calliug-. Some of them j have a trained dog.

"What is he good for in such work?"

I inquired. "He can hardly be a retriever for animals weighing hundreds of pounds."

Yes, he is, sir ; if seals are fat when

killed, they float, but even if they are very poor it takes but littlo to float them. And the dog jumps off and catches them often before they sink, or

he'll dive for them in shallow water. When they sink in deep water we often

'jig' them haul them up with a fish

hook and line. Some seals dive when

wounded, and swim off to sea; others

turn to the shore and crawl up on a rock to die."

In the spring of the year they hunt

seals on the ice when it drifts against

tho shores. Cape Banld, Newfoundland, is a noted point for this kind of

dealing. The floes coming from the northern seas strike in this cape and divide into two parts ; one enters tho

Strait of Belle Isle, and the other goes

southward along the coast of New

foundland.

The people told me that hundreds of

hunters come there in March with dog

sleds from the settlements about Hare

Bay, etc. Each gang of men brings a

skiff, provisions, etc., and many camp in little huts, and remain till the bth or

10th of Mav. Thev keep a constant

watch over the drifting fields of ice. When seals are discovered on a floe touching the shove or near it, the men put off to it in their skiff, haul the! boat np on the ice, and then go about clubbing the seals. They soon return to the shore with blubber and hides, which they bury under snow for keeping until a trading schooner calls.

Sometimes the wind or the current

suddenly loosens the ice and carries it out to sea, and the sport is then quito perilous. The netting of seals is not

unlike the taking of fish in nets. A

strong net may be moored off a fu or-

able point or in a channel, or several nets are combined and moored to form

a kind of pound. At La Tabatiere,. Cape Mecatina, a noted resort of seals, the combination of not measures, nbout 700 fathoms. When seals were abund

ant, aeveral hundreds and even thous

ands were taken there in a season. In

a favorable cove a net may be sunk on the bottom until the seals enter; then, it is raised with a windlass to close the entrance, and men in boats row about the bay and drive the seals into the meshes.

The ocean sealing is the most co-tly

and productive method. Powerful

steamers, built expressly for this work,

and manned by 200 to 300 men, are sent

out every year from St. John's, New

foundland, and Dundee, Scotland. 1 lie

It is related of Sir Humphrey Dayy, an eminent scientist, that among his minor discoveries was a theory of snoring and a way ot curing it. He attributed snoring to a dry or parched state of the larynx caused by mouthbreathing, and in an inveterate case he tried to cure it by' putting a piece of eastile soap in the mouth of the sonorous sleeper. He found this plan was successful the oily ingredients of the soap lubricating the larynx, while "the aoda of the soap is forcibly expelled in the form of strong alkaline language by the snorer, who awakens the moment the decomposition begins." Soft soap is said to be a more powerful remedy for the same purpose. Snorers who prefer to escape the application of this means of cure may do so by retiring with a handkerchief tied under the chin and over the head, which will keep the mouth shut and the throat

The time came when he had to go to the

narson to prepare for confirmation. It so

happened that she went the same year.

She was a tall, fine girl now, and all Ihe

lads in the parish tried to show off before

Ola would have tned to do the saiae,

if he had had anything to show off. But,

though he had a coat now, if was a cast-off

one of Jens Oestmo s, which was much too

big for him. His boots, too, and his

trousers had seen better days, before they made his acquaintance. He walked aside from the rest, his ears burning when any

one looked at him. But it any one dared

to mock him, he used a pair of fists which

inspired respect. He was a handsome

enough lad, and finely made; bnt his clothes and his frowsy hair made him look

ugly. Heavy thoughts came to him, and a fierce, defiant spirit was kindled within him. The world seemed all out of gear. He

longed to go back to the mountains where

he could be along with birds and beasts

The girls giggled when he went by; and when he heard their laughter growing

louder, as the distance increased, he yeaned to kill somebody, just to give vent to the

tremendous wrath within him.

It was at suoh a time that Birgit sought

him and spoke kindly to him.

"Yon mustn't mind the girls," she SMd;

"they laugh at everything. They dont mean anything by it. It's jnst a way they

have."

Somebody will come to harm yon if you

ever do it," he answere.d bercely.

replied with a smile; and I wish you would

"I wish I wish," she stammered while a

quick blush sprang to her cheek. -'No, I flunk I won't say. it, after all," she finished,

and turned to go.

"Tee, say it," he entreated, setting her

hand.

"Well, it hi this; it seemed so easy to say a moment ago, and now it seems so hi.rd. "

"I want to hear it."

"Well, I I wish yon conld do a i the

hare change your skin."

She drew her hand away from him, and

ran down the hill-side, so that the stones

and dry leaves flew behind her.

Thorger Sletten, who was said to be alien

whom she seemed to favor. He got n bad

The bridal tmesis made a ring on the

green, and the bridegroom came slowly for

ward.

for vour bride on your wedding day."
