DODGING THE MAELSTROM.

If yon have the curiosity to look Tip old maps of that region, you will find marked at the south end of the Loffodon Isles, between the islets of Moskertes and Vaeroe, the patch of water where great and ancient fables had their origin, in tho brave old days when peoplo really believed in the existence of tho Maelstrom. It was told how ships that approached the fatal spot were gradually sucked in, till they went to their doom madly circling round the whirling Bides of the insatiable pool. It was told how even whales, when they came within the scope of tho monster, were sucked down to their inevitable destruction. We know better now. There is no Maelstrom. There is merely a dangerous place of swift tides and dangerous currents. ' No ships are destroyed, because no ships/ever think of going ito such a nasty place. The whales are safe. So, then, .perishes yet another ' ancient tradition.
