pathetically. ''l'll get Telly to show
ye her picturs. an mebbe ye can give
her some p'ints as IL help her.
II shall be more than glad to do so,''
replied Albert, ''but if that shipwreck
scene is hers, she needs no advice from
me.''
Uncle Terry looked pleased, but made
no answer. On the way back to the
house he said, I'D ruther ye'd make
no mention to the wimmin Of our hev-
in any talk"
At the breakfast table he seemed in
better spirits and more like himself.
Il think We told me last night" he re-
marked, addressing Albert, that We
painted picturs yerself some" And
then, turning to Telly, he added, ''Mr.
Page is comm back here bimeby jest
to look round, an mebbe he'd like to
look at some of yourn.'
Telly's face flushed slightly. Il shall
be delighted" added Albert, eff Miss
Terry will favor me. Will your" he
added in persuasive tone.
Il do not feel that my pictures are
good enough to show to strangers she
answered in a low voice. II have
never had any lessons or any one to
show me-
''From what I've noticed in your sit
ting room," responded Albert quickly.
S'yoU need not be ashamed to show
them to an artist. I am not one.
only sketch little, just as remem-
brance of places I visit, but I love pic
lures even better than music
II will gladly show you what have
DONE" replied Telly simply, and there
the conversation ended. When the meal
was over Albert observed, with your
permission, Mrs. Terry, I would like to
make sketch of your home and the
lighthouse, and after Mr. Terry has
helped me to find my friends am COM
ing back" Then, turning to Telly, he
added, II can then feel easy in my
mind and shall enjoy looking over your
paintings"
won't ye stop to dinner with u.s."
asked Aunt Lissy as Albert thanked
her for her hospitality. "We'll be glad
to have ye."
Il will, thank you," replied Albert.
''This point, and in fact this village,
was such a surprise to me and is so
charming am going to devote all my
day to it." Then, bidding the ladies
good morning, he followed Uncle Terry
over to the cove, where they boarded
his dory and started out to find the
Gypsy.
"And she has the soul of an artist
in her, Albert said to himself, as
Uncle Terry pulled the dory out of the
harbor and up the coast toward where
he had been left stranded "And what
eyes, and what perfect form!''
AS good luck would have it, when
they rounded a point, there was the
Gypsy following the island shore down
to meet them. Albert stood up and
waved his cap. He was answered by
the whistle and in an instant every one
on board Of her, even the crew, were
out on her bows and waving caps
Justify. The skipper kept the whistle
blowing, and as the yacht slowed
down and Uncle Terry pulled along
side, Albert was seized and almost
dragged on board. Frank was so over
joyed he Rugged him and then gave
vent to war whoop that might have
been heard the entire length Of South
port island.
1--WE guessed what had happened to
yOu,' he said, "when we picked I'D
your boat. IT was almost dark when
one Of the crew saw an empty boat
floating up the bay. We were all down
in the cabin at that time and had not
noticed how late it was, when he
called us. Two Of the crew lowered
the other boat and when they cot
back with yours we nearly had a fit.
The missing cushions and loop on the
painter gave US clew and we half ex-
pected you would find your way back
to the Gypsy by land.''
Il guess you're not much acquainted
with the interior Of Southport island"
put in Albert, and then going forward
he brought back Uncle Terry and in
troduced him to the crowd. BY this
time the Gypsy was almost down to
the Cape and, under one bell and the
direction of Uncle Terry, she slowly
steamed in. That worthy man had
been looking over her and his admira-
ton was evident
"A purity slick craft, boys" he said
to the party as the Gypsy's anchor
ceased rafting out Of the hawsehole-
"a purity slick craft, an must "a cost
heap O. money"
Then as he pulled his own weather
beaten dory that had been towing
astern along to the gangway, Albert
stepped up to him and said in low
voice:

Mr.. Terry? want to change my
clothes and in an hour or so l will
