Familiar Phrases Which Recall Adventurous Days I low many familiar phraes we use without realizing the apt and sometimes striking figures they represent '. Consider the word ".skintlint." for example, or the ipres-iou "a fhch in the pan." We ask for '"leeway" er we "shorten sail;" we "launch plan" or we "run lose to the wind." We have a "close shave;" we speak of u man as "half sens over." We "take time hy the forelock" and "the hull hy the horns." We "get down to hard pan" r "to hed rock." Vet we seid .in think of the phrases as graphic tin taphors, and more seldom still do we think, as we use them, of the adventurous day s to which we owe so nnn h of the suggestlveliess if our colhxjllial sjieri h.

The sailor will then Inform you that dew is never to hefound more than .'to miles from hind, so the dew is a tmod indication.
