account of their location To these he

of Iris and himself to haul into posi-

structure, whilst he was compelled to
desist from active building opera

he could not get the topmost supports
adjusted at sufficient height.

two more days Of hard work before it
would be fit for habitation Iris wished

But the words died away on her
lips In sudden fright. They were
standing on the level plateau in front
of the cave, well removed from the
trees, and they could see distinctly on
all sides, for the sun was sinking in
cloudless sky and the air was prefer
naturally clear, being free now from
the trenlulous haze of the hot hours.
Across the smooth expanse of sandy
ground came the agonized shrieks of a
startled bird-a large bird, it would
seem-winging it's way towards them
with incredible swiftness. and utter
ing a succession Of loud full-voiced
notes of alarm.
Yet the strange thing was that not
a bird was to be seen. At that hour
the ordinary feathered inhabitants of
the island We're quietly nesting among
the branches preparatory to making a
final selection of the nights resting
place. None Of them would stir I'M
less actually disturbed.
Iris drew near to the sailor. Invol-
UNFAIRLY she caught his arm. He
stepped a half-pace in front of her to
ward off any danger that might be
heralded by this new and uncanny
phenomenon. Together they strained
their eyes in the direction Of the APP
preaching sound, but apparently their
sight was bewitched, as nothing what
| ever was visible.
ooh, what is it," walled Iris, who

variety is positively detestable. Such
nasty things ought to be kept in
geological gardens, and not turned
loose. Moreover, my tea will be boiled

Nevertheless, the tea. tho minus
sugar or milk, was grateful enough.
and particularly acceptable to the
sailor, who entertained; Iris with a
that marvellous. beverage. Curiously
enough, the lifting. Oft veil upon
the mans earlier history made these
two much better friends. With more
complete acquaintance there was far
less tendency towards certain passages
which, under ordinary condi-
tons, could be- construed as nothing,
else than downright filtration. .ss::II
They made the pleasing discovery
that they could both sing. There was
| hardly an opera in vogue that one or
| other did not know sufficiently we'll

numbers. Iris had a; sweet and sym
pathetic mezzo-soprano voice, jerks
an excellent BARITONE, and. to the Sc
cret amazement of the girl, he rem
dered oneaor two well-known Anglo
Indian barrack-room ditties with
much humor. y.
This, then, was the mise-en- scene.
Iris, seated In the broken saloon
chair, which the sailor had firmly
! wedged into the sand for her accom-
mediation, was attired in close fitting
costume selected from the small store
Of garments SO wisely preserved by
jerks. She wore a, pair of clumsy
/ mems boots several sizes too large for
her. Her hair was tied up In a gypsy
i knot ON the back OF her head, and the
light of a cheerful log fire danced in
her blue eyes.
Jenks,s unshaven and ragged
il squatted tailorwise near her. Close al
4 hand, on two sides. the shaggy walls
4 of rock rose in solemn grandeur. The
il neighboring trees. decked now in the
/ sable livery of night, were dimly out
lined against the deep misty blue OF
/, sea and sky or wholly merged In the
shadow Of the cliffs.
They lost themselves Ia tho peaceful
