Itching and Painful Sores Covered

my body was covered with sores.

Those were troublous times in Ven
ezuela when the old brig Gemsbok
was loading coffee at Puerto Cabello
for Marseilles. Revolutions were
breaking out like measles in an or
phan asylum, and 1t was small wonder
that the Countess CordoZo, in her
haste to leave such a perturbed coun-
try, should avail herself of the one
practicable stateroom on the Gems
box to get away from it. The skip
per, while drinking aguadiente with
the red-headed agent, had picked up
some gossip about our passenger, al
though the agent had never laid eyes
on the noble lady. She was an Eng
lish countess who had fallen in love
with SenOr CordoZo, Venezuelan,
and had accompanied him to his ma
tive land. He promptly mixed himself
up in one of the revolutions and on
the defeat of his faction remained in
the interior dangling by the neck to
tropical tree. His widow then sought
to return TO Europe.
She came aboard one of those hot,
muggy nights for which Puerto Ca
bello can beat the world and was un-
der convoy of Tom Dewitt, chief mate.
We got no glimpse of her face that
night, for we weighed anchor and put
to sea, but we saw ii the next morn
ing, and it was worth looking at. A
pair of true blue eyes danced in the
prettiest face that the Lord ever gave
to a woman, and she was :. wonder
in the way she stood the slant OF the
deck, for the weather was rough and
the Gemsbok rolled in any sort of
swell. "Hi bet she can Dance" said
Ben, the English sailor. "My heyees!

tess as to her to walk like a liable

"Ho," retorted Ben, mo danger o.

And he was too. Every man for
ward saw that Tom Dewitt had lost
his heart to the countess. He was a
strapping, good-looking seaman, but
then a countess
Dewitt hovered about her like a bee
around a flower. He was shifting her
chair from sun and breeze and diving
down after a wrap if the wind had
bit of an edge TO it.

He saw the way things were lying and
he had long talk with Dewitt Cap.
tain Paul hated women, having mar.
ried q shrew who scolded herself to
death in ten years. He always spat
over his left shoulder when he met a
woman on the street. Well, after the
captain, Ben took hand, then Sam,
and then a deputation of the crew. All
advised Dewitt to stand aloof from the
countess.
"Cap'n Paul is a good master of a
sailin' brig" urged Sam, but he'd

We were free with Dewitt, for he
had begun as a toremast hand with
us.

countess, sweetly, of Dewitt as he
leaned moodily over the rail one trop-
ical moonlit night.

at the water.
