" cried Kozo, as if in pain, and almost ready to break out in sobs, " HoteTs wallet was not half-empty, and he promised to show me all he had. That tengu waked me up. I thought he was going to fall on me." " Excuse me ; I am sorry I stumbled and woke you up," said Miss Silver; "but don't be sorry; Hote"i will come again." So in expectation of another visit, and a fresh glimpse into wonderland, Kozo sat down to his chopsticks, his rice, and his sugar-beans, and told his mother his splendid dream and funny waking. He declared he would tell the whole story of his long dream to his father on his return from Higo, and ask him to tell him all about Raiko and Benk^i and Yoshitsune".

The city of the same name has one of the few harbors, and indeed the best one, on the west coast of Japan, and to it the ship was bound. A long voyage, as a Japanese born in the first half of the nineteenth century counted it, had been made. The run of ten days from the port of Oshima in Higo, though the weather was only occasionally squally, had severely tried the nerves of the gentleman who now stood on deck watching the splendid scenery.

"Yes," said the man of two swords, who had already donned his silk coat and trowsers, whitest socks and sandals, and carried in his girdle the pair of jewel-hilted weapons that marked his rank, as if all danger from salt water were past, and speaking loud enough for the sailors at the huge tiller, behind which was a little shrine, to hear him : " thanks to jour skill and the favor of the god Kompira, we are 67

TWO BABY BOYS.<br />
IT was a bright sunshiny morning in November,<br />
A.D. 1852, when the great white sail of a<br />
Japanese junk swelled before the freshening wind<br />
in the Bay of Tsuruga. The city of the same name<br />
has one of the few harbors, and indeed the best one,<br />
on the west coast of Japan, and to it the ship was<br />
bound. A long voyage, as a Japanese born in the<br />
first half of the nineteenth century counted it, had<br />
been made. The run of ten days from the port of<br />
Oshima in Higo, though the weather was only<br />
occasionally squally, had severely tried the nerves of<br />
the gentleman who now stood on deck watching the<br />
splendid scenery.<br />
"My lord must be glad to see home land, once<br />
