for all. searched it over thoroughly
looking in and under the boats and

could discover no sign of any one.
When | got back to the promenade a
little crowd had gathered, attracted by
the noise of the falling spar, which a
dozen members of the crew were busy
hosting back into place.

them, but had been united Martigny

"Well, luckily, there's no damage
done,' observed Mr.. Royce, with af-
fected lightness, though it was a close
shave. If Miss Izemball hadn't called
to us the spar would have struck u.s.
Mrs. Kendall closed her eyes with a
giddy little gesture at the vision the
words called up, and the officer frown-
ed in chagrin and perplexity. Just then
the captain came up, and the two step

so low that only an excited word Of
French was now and then audible I

such spirits that was more than ever
determined not to disturb him with the
knowledge of Martigny's presence.
AS the moments passed my fears
seemed more and more uncalled for.

that had been making a bogy Of my
own imaglnings. The Frenchman did
| not appear in the saloon, and after

developed the fact that he was seri-

stateroom
1 may as we'll confess at once that
was seasick. It came next morning
ten minutes after I had left my berth,
not a violent sickness, but faintness
| and giddiness that made me long for
my berth again, but Mr.. Royce would
not hear Of it. He got me out on deck
and into my chair, with the fresh
! breeze blowing full in my face. There
was long line Of chairs drawn up
there, and from the faces Of most of
their occupants I judged they were far
more miserabl than T.

the line and looked at each of us, stop

AS striking a cat story as | have

Record The cat was accustomed to
visit the next door neighbor after each
meal to be fed and petted, bringing
also two kittens.
One of the women at the house thus
visited, who had entertained dislike
for cats, finally, on observing the ami

gray kitten and said she intended to
ask to be allowed to keep II.
The next day when Mother Cat
came for her bits only one kitten &C.
companied her. but she took away
some choice morsels for the one left
at home. This continued several days,
when the woman who had first ex.
pressed intention to get the kitten
which the cat was feeding. remarked
that she had given up wholly the idea
of securing the gray kitten. All three
felines appeared at the next meal and
have done so since.
