1t was late in the evening when Patrick
Cambel again found himself en- tete-a-tete
with his host. There had been people
In to dinner at the house in Park lane,
but these had gone and Mrs. Shelf and
Amy Rivers followed them to parties else
where, Mrs. Shelf had wished to carry
Gam bel also in her traia, bat that person
stGid behind by gUIles5 which no could
not very well refu Z, " Iou will favor mo

Of tho evening, Mr., CamhGl," Shelf had
said in his pompuus way. | have matters
of the greatest moment | wish to discuss
with YOU
Il hardly know how to begin" Shelf
confessed uncasily when they We're alone.
Then let me make a suggestion" said
Cambcl with a laugh. Come to the
point at once. Let's have the plot without
any Introductory chapters, You've told
me you We got n scheme on hand for turn
ing my discovery into currency, and you've
rather limited it's dirty scheme The only
question is how dirty. Thanks to pressure
of circumstances I'm not an oyerparticu-
lar person. But on points I'm very
squeamish, or, in other words, l draw the
line somewhere. Unless I'm very vastly
mistaken, your plan will involve one in
downright knavery, which is thing all
sensible men avoid if possible. Now, in
my ignorance fancied the find might be
turned to account without climbing down
to that
oh" said Shelf eagerly, then you
had scheme in your head before you came
to me!''
The other shrugged his shoulders and
lit cigar.
just a dim outline-nothing more.
You see the interior of the Everglades is .
absolutely untouched by the white mans .
weapons. 1t was vaguely supposed to be I
one vast lake, with GASES of slime and
mangroves. The lake was reported as too
shallow for boats and Astounding with
tevers, agues and mosquitoes. Consequent
ly it remained unexplored, and on the end
of the Florida peninsula today no white
man, barring myself and one or two 9th
ers, has ever got farther than five or eight
miles in from the coast.
Now, as I've told you, l was lucky
enough to hit upon a fine deep ship chan
mel going in as far as the center line, and
don t know how far behind inside. There
is good, fertile country, a healthy climate
and the best game preserve on this earth.
For the first corners that interior will be
just a sportsman's paradise
My idea is twowise. First sell the
cream off the sport. Some men will give
anything for shooting, and in this case
there VIII also be the glamour of being
pioneers. Each one will start determined
to write book of his opinions and doings
when be gets back. By charteringa steam
er and treating them well on board they
would have sporting de luxe. One Dug t

dancing the old slow glide before l knew.
And his steering was perfect. In that
whirling, teeming, tangled mob he never
bumped me once. | gave him two more
legal waltzes and cut another couple in his
favor
(which makes five in all, " said Fairfax
rather stiffly.
Amy Rivers took his hand and patted
1t. Don't be cross, dear. You know
how love a good dance, and one doesn {
meet partner like Mr.. Cambel every day.
l suppose he's done his waltzing in Wen
ma and Paris and Yorkshire and New Or
leans as we'll as here in London, and by
averaging them all up he can't help but be
good"
is it from going to those places that
Mrs. Shelf called him the great traveller"
''Of course not. Hamilton, how stupid
you are about him! Why, he's rummaged
about IN every back corner of the world,
90 they say"
so they say, yes. Teheran to Timbuk-
tn. But what does he say himself about
his wanderings beyond the tram lines;
Shuffles mostly, doesn't he? And who's
met him anyv here? Not a soul who will
come forward to speak. l tell you, Amy,
there's something uncanny about this Pat
rick Cambel. He turns up here periodic
ally in London after some vague exploring
trip to place which isn't mapped, and
you can never pin him to tell exactly where
he's been. He comes with money, spends
1t en- prince and then goes off again, NOM
inally perhaps to the Cobb desert, and re-
turns with another cargo"
How romantici" said Miss Rivers.
Yes, isn't it," said her fiance dryly.
"If he'd lived a century earlier, one would
have said he'd got a sound business con-
nection as a pirate somewhere West In
dies way. As this year is 1893 and that
explanations barred, one simply has to
accept him as an uncomfortable mystery"
Hamilton, how absurd you arel Wher- /
ever did all this rigmarole come froms"

allowance.
Shelf stood up, and the dog on his lap
leaped hurriedly to the ground, growing
"Woman," he said passionately, "if you
won't believe me, If you will go on in this
mad extravaganza, you will soon learn for
yourself that am not lying, perhaps
very soon-perhaps tomorrow. When a
