I rescuse the kid! It's simple!"
 I'm blowed if I likes the job!' tha stranger answered.
 "Pshaww responded the captain Faint nothin' but leetie joke, an I'm going ter pay you well for it!'
 The two arose, haggling over a price for the job. Silas walked away. The mate was aghast at his rivals cunning plot He trembled when he thought of the pinnacle the captain would reach and the depth to which he would sink in the widows estima- tion if the plotters succeeded. He was seized with a wild desire to flee the vessel with Sam, but his charge was nowhere in sight and the sail ors, the stranger having pulled off. were weighing the anchor. When he grew calm he set himself to plan a way to frustrate the racscally scheme but although he spent many an hour In thinking over the situation, the only determination he arrived at was that when the "Salmouth Siren" reached Blimley Cove he would stick to Sam like a leech. In the mean while he resolved 70 conduct him self as though no clouds had arisen upon his horizon and to be duly as tonished when the captain chose to announce his intention of stopping at Biimley Cove, lest his superior's sus- picions be aroused and he design oth- CT means of accomplishing his end.
 The boat was within a days sail of Blimley Cove when a severe storm arose. Tn the evening, as great wind driven sheets of rain beat the deck and vivid flashes of lightning lit up the plunging bark wierdly, the cap tain sought his mates company for the first time during the trip. Silas, occupied by his troubles. seeing that the captain had been drinking, paid
 
 as the captain. growing supersttious under the combined influences of the liouor and the storm, unfolded his pet belief that the destinies of ships were controlled by strange sea folk. Silas grew interested and then agreed heartily with the captain. When they separated Silas was deep in thought.
 About midnight, sobered by the storm. the captain had taken the wheel. Suddenly, above the noise or the gale, he heard strange NoIce calling him. By the faint llsht from the cabin air-ports he made out TOT TOT ward of the wheel, a prostrate Ils ure Ills he peered a continued Ilasn of itgbtnine disclosed a mermaid.

An ignorant countryman who saw the for the first time was much impressed with the effect of the blue water. and asked a fisherman if he could tell him the owner. as he would like to buy a gallon to take home to his wife.
