Iris, now genuinely amazed.
Yes. Is it not true that you are
going to marry Lord Ventnor?"
A passing steward heard the point
blank question.
1t had q curious effect upon him. He
gazed with fiercely eager eyes at Miss
Deane and so far forgot himself as to
permit a dish of water ice to rest
against Sir John Tozer's bald head.
Iris could not help noting his strange
behavior. A flash of humor chased
away her first angry resentment at
Lady Tozer's interrogatory.
THAT may be my happy fate" she
answered gayly, 'but Lord Ventnor has
not asked me-"

gan her ladyship.
"Confound you, you stupid rascal!
What are you doing?" shouted Sir John.
His feeble nerves at last conveyed the
information that something more pro-
nounced than sudden draft affect
ed his scalp; the ice was melting.
The incident amused those passen-
gers who sat near enough to observe it.
But the chief steward, lowering watch
full near the captains table, darted for
ward. Pale with anger, he Kissed:

Her powers of merciless inquisition

The chief steward smirked. He did
not know exactly what had happened.
Nevertheless, great though Sir John
Tozer might be. the owners daughter
was greater.
Certainly, miss, certainly he
agreed, adding confdentially: 'Tt is
rather hard on a steward to be sent
aft, miss. 1t makes such a difference
in the-er-the little gratuities given
by the passengers"
The girl was tactful. She smiled

you are not good sailor, Lady Tozer.
Are you, Miss Deane?"
Capital. I should just love to see a
real storm. Now promise me solemnly
that you will take me up into the chart
house when this typhoon is simply
tearing things to pieces
"Oh, dear! 1 hope it will not be very
bad. Is there no way in which you
can avoid it. captain? Will it last
long?"
The polite skipper for once preferred
to answer Lady Tozer. There is no
cause for uneasiness," he said. "Of
course typhoons in the China sea are
nasty things while they last, but
ship like the Sirdar is not troubled by
them. She will drive through the
worst gale she is likely to meet hero
in less than twelve hours. Besides, I
alter the course somewhat as soon as
discover our position with regard to
its center"
Then the commander hurriedly ex-
cused himself, and the passengers saw
no more Of him that day.
Her ladyship dismissed the topic as
of no present interest and focused Miss
Deane through her eyeglasses.
"Sir Arthur proposes to come home
in June, 1 understands" she inquired.
Iris was remarkably healthy young
woman. A large banana momentarily
engaged her attention. She nodded
affably.
You will stay with relatives until
he arrives? pursued Lady Tozer.
Relatives! We have Monochrome
whom we specially cultivate-that is.
I will stop in town a day or two to
interview my dressmaker and then go
straight to Helmdale, our place in
Yorkshire"
Surely you have a chaperon?"
"A chaperon! My dear Lady Tozer
did my father impress you as one who
would permit a fussy and stout old
person to make my life miserable?"
The acidity of the retort lay in the
word stout" But Iris was not ac-
customed to cross examination. Dur
ing three months residence on the
island she had learned how to avoid
Lady Tozer. Here it was impossible,
and the older woman fastened upon her
asp-like. Miss Iris Deane was a tooth
some morsel for gossip. Not yet twen-
ty-one, the only daughter of wealthy
baronet who owned fleet of stately
ships-the Sirdar among them-a girl
who had been mistress of her fathers
house since her return from Dresde n
three years ago-young. beautiful, rich

men thanked judicious heaven, while
women smiled enyiorslY.

chairs that was abominaB1e when PEG
pie gathered up books and wraps and
staggered ungracefully toward the
companionway. Altogether Miss Deane
was not wholly pleased with the pre-
liminaries Of q typhoon, whatever the
realities might be. 80. ...., ..s..
Why did that silly old woman allude'
to her contemplated marriage to Lord
Ventnor, retailing the gossip Of Hong
kong with such malicious emphasis?
For an instant Iris tried to shake the
railing in comic anger. She hated Lord
Ventnor. She did not want to marry
him or anybody else just yet. OF course
her father had limited approval of his
lordship's obvious intentions. Countess
of Ventnor! Yes. it was a nice title.
Still she wanted another couple of
years of careless freedom. In any
event why should Lady Tozer pry and
probe?
And finally, why did the steward
oh, poor old Sir John. What would
have happened if the ice had slid down
his neck? Thoroughly comforted by
this gleeful hypothesis, Miss Deane
across the starboard side and see If
Captain Ross heavy bank of cloud
in the northwest had put in an ap-
pearance.
Ha! There 1t was, black, ominous,
gigantic, rolling up over the horizon
like some monstrous football. Around
1t the sky deepened into purple, fringed
with a wide belt of brick red. She had
never seen such beginning of a gale.
From what she had read In books she
imagined that only in great deserts
were clouds of dust generated There
could not be dust in the dense pail now
rushing with giant strides across the
trembling sea. Then what was it?
Why was it so dark and menacing?
And where was desert of stone and
sand to compare with this awful ex-
panse Of water? What small dot
was this great ship on the visible sur
face! But the ocean itself extended
away beyond there, reaching out to the
infinite. The dot became mere speck,
undistinguishable beneath a celestial
microscope such as the gods might
condescend to use.
Iris shivered and aroused herself
with a startled laugh.
The lively fanfare Of the dinner
trumpet failed to fill the saloon. By
this time the Sirdar was fighting reso-
lutely against stiff gale. But the
stress OF actual combat was better than
the eerie sensation, Of impending dan
ger during the earlier hours. The
strong. heartyt pulsattons Of. the en-
