6 THE . MARINE .RECOP'D. *-» NAUTICAL TERMS. "How you getting: nlrnijt with your now yncht ?" nnid an old settler to nnothor old settler wlio U ImvlnR u ttonm yaoltt built In the country for uie In one of tho lukd*. "When do-you launch Iter." i, "0, tliey nre getting nlong nil right I fiiGsa," Mill the yneht owner, "But I don't now what you motin by 'lunching' her. , I dld'nt know nny lunch went with a yncht." "Who snld lunch f" remn'rkod the first old pnrty, who knew something nbotit a ecuifur- Ing life.—-«»»nl<I lnuiioh, that Is, to get her into the wilteK"'. "0, you Incitn vhon we going .to slide her . In? Yes.ycs. But I had not thought about that. I supposed ihoy would put the enstors under the ronf on the bottom and roll her around on land. Say Jim," biiIi) tho yncht owner, calling his friend tJnj side, "Instrict confidence I want to tell y&Ti I don't know any more about v'nchtlng than I do about religion. The fact Is,, the boys told me I ought to have a yacht, jind so 1 ordered one, but I have nearly driven the gentleman cra¬ zy that is building It lor me, by my landsman remarks. I tryto pred'nd I know all nbout the different lhiugs-he speaks of, but It Is all Greek to me. Wha^s a ruddor nnywny'( lie wrote me the orlrticiliiy to send him a rudder 'shoe, and I mitt a pair of them' by express, and do you know he kicked terribly when lie opentd the package anil Imtnd a pairofrub- "ber overshoes. How did I know wbata'rud iler shoe was? Ho sent out lui a windlass Biid.1 foindl where some fellows had been digging « ne"< and'hought thu wlndlasB they hnd been using for a dollar andla.hnlf. and sent It out, nnd It, ciimo back on the next train with indignant remarks about my intelligence. He sent for a binnacle, and I was never so stuck In my life. I thought maybe a binnacle might be something that went witli the rubber shoe, ,nnd I went to tie stocking counter ln_a dry goods store, and asked the girl In • charge if she would let me look at some of their binnacles. She wnsareal spry looking girl; and did not look as though Bhe would deceive nn old man, but I could sec she was surprised. She' nsked me what s|ze I wanted, and I told her I should think about number eight or nine. Then site told me I would have lo go to the corset counter, and I went there and ttked the girl how she was off for bin¬ nacles, and she said site was not off for bln- naoles, nB.Bhe knew of, nnd then tho stock¬ ing counter girl enme up and whlsporej to her, and she asked me If I wanted n binnacle for myself or my wife. Iloypu know, the cold perspiration raised up on my forehead, but I told her I wanted n binnacle Unit -vould-do-for-elther— myaelf-or— any of-tlie family, n sort of combination binnacle', as It were. 0, you don't'catch tho old mnn on any cross examination. 'Die girls held a consultation and then called a floor walker, and talked with him, nnd then one of them asked me if I wanted a binnacle that laced up at theside, or honked In front, nnd I told her I didn't want either, I wanted one that buttoned up. They said then I had better go to the glove counter, and I went there, Tmd-whcjijsaid I .wanted n binnacle, the girl nsked^)0~^i»UM!loj\iind I told her I wanted a terra coltu blnnTiunrt—riltfr-iiUjJjli£ nearest she had was lavender, and thatshe" couldn't sell me a single one. She said I wjould have to take a pair. 1 didn't Want a pair, nnd she -tii-ked me if 1 wns buying n whht do ynu call It, fur a one armed man, and If so, which hand, right or left. 1 mis stuck, then, and asked her, witli some indig¬ nation, if she knew what abinnacle wis any¬ way, and she said she would be blessed If W\a diil. I like frankness, but 1 was really In hopes she did know what a binnacle wiib, but just then the lloor milker came up with jthe three other girls, anil lie asked mo -what - a..binnac)o was lor, and I told him it was for use an a yncht. Then lie said that wns nil right, nnd I could, find it nt the underwear counter, so I went there and told the girl, » real intelligent person, that I wanted a binnacle for a yacht, and one of tho girls niid 'he wants a combination binnacle that lie. or niiLof his family can wear,' and the oilier girl said 'one that buttoiiB un,' and the girl from the glove counter said,'give him n terra cottn colored one.' Well I pledge my word the binnacle business was becoming serious. The underwear girl opened several boxes, and said she didn't believe they hnd terra cot in, but they hail brown, nnil lUle thread, and silk. 1 told her to give me a silk bno as quick as she could, and it she dln't null out a silk undershirt, tho binnacle on. I have found out that a binnacle Is » thing that they put a compass In, for me In the pilot house, but I don't toe why they don't call It something that a man will understand. I ciimo near getting my neck broke when I win up there. Every¬ thing Is called by some other name nbout a ship. A rope Is called a 'painter.' The cap¬ tain throwed a rope over the side, nnd told me to fasten It to the end of tho painter on the ground. Well, there was a Dutch- fel¬ low painting the lido of tho yacht, nnd 1 made a 'slip noose and (listened It to the slack of the painter's pants. i He didn't un¬ derstand our language, and thought it wiib done (or n purpose, and just then the cap¬ tain asked me if t hnd made It fust, nnd I said,'aye, nyo, aor,' nnd lie shouted to one of tho men to 'hoist awny,' nnd I'm blessed If they didn't jerk -that painter right over the side, by. the sent of the pants, nnd half way up the mast, nnd he yelled murder In n foreign language, and spilling a bucket of paint on deck. They let him down, nnd then tho, cu'ptnln explained thnt a painter is n small rope. • The painter wus mad nnd chased me nil.over the shipyard with an ax. 1 had to buy li new pnlrof pntit*, but I don't care for' expense, as I am learning some¬ thing every day. Sny, what Is h tiller rope?" '•0, I don,'t know," snld the first old citi¬ zen, "you better go up to the dry goods store and ask th'e girl at the corset counter," and they separated, the yneht owner going to consult an encyclopedia, nnd the old mail to take a drink.—Peck's Sun.
