Then, seeing Sandy's dead body lying near him, he said to the man ,who had killed him, "Good work, Jerry! It's a good thing I told you to stand watch, or It might have been my last."

I ought to have said that the four men who were with Sandy had now come to think favorably

of the captain's motive of burying

when ho ordered things to be set

for sail. "An' don't be too slow about It, as I want to 'sail right away in the iuornin' do ye hear?" It was a busy day for the pirates. The captain employed his time in keeping them at work. If he found anyone loafing, he would give them a kick, or, if they had their backs turned toward him, he would stick them with the point of his sword. By dark, the ship was ready to sail, and the pirates, tired from the hard labor, fell upon the ground and slept.

The captain was first to awaken

After letting the box of gold

down into the hole by the use of a ropp, the pirates then caried the body of Sandy over to it and laid it on top of the treasure box. Now, you have found why the hole was so large. Now, the next thing to do was to make out plans as to where the gold was. This the captain was to do. Captain Scott took the necessary notes and then ordered everybody on the ship. They at once set sail again. It happened that the cook was

rather an old timer and as the ship sailed along in the evening, when there was nothing to do, some of the sailors got him out and while somebody played a tune on a French harp, he would dance jigs and other old time dances. A bunch of sailors got together and began singing an old favorite sea song. The captain, hearing this, ca up to the men and joined in. To tell the truth, none of the pirates had a voice to brag on, but it cheered eveiy one that heard them sing. Just as the pirates finished their song, someone began to howl like a dog, a way of making fun of the singing. The captain seemed to be in very good spirits, and he good naturedly pulled off his boots and threw them at the one who had

m cows.

Friend of the Family: "And do you do a good deed every day, my

uoy r Scout: "Yes, I do. Yesterday I went to visit my aunt, and she was very glad. Today, I came home, and she was very glad again."

The Give-Away Magician: "Now to help me with the next trick I want the services of a boy just any boy in the audience. Yes, you will do, my little man. Come right up. Now, you've never seen me before, have you?" Boy: "No, father." A stupid young scholar named Lancer, When asked to recite, stammered, "Can't, sir;" But it chanced that the topic Was: "Please name a tropic"; The teacher thought Lancer said "Cancer."
