taken completely ~ surprise, was
thrown to the deck in an instant, his
attempt to cry out for help being check
ed by heavy hands. Peggy's scream
was cut off as quickly, and, paralyzed
by terror, she felt herself engulfed in
strong arms and smothered into silence
It all happened so quickly that there
was no chance to give the alarm, no op-
portunity to resist. -
Brewster felt himself lifted bodily,
and then there was the sensation Of
falling. He struck something forcibly
with all his weight and fell back with
a crash to the deck. Afterward he
found that the effort to throw him
overheard had failed only because his
assailants in their haste had hurled
him against an unseen stanchion.
Peggy was borne forward and low
cred swiftly into arms that deposited
her roughly upon something hard.
There was jerky, rocking motion,
the sudden splash Of oars, and then
she. knew no more.
The invaders had planned with
craftiness and patience that deserved
success. For hours they had waited,
silently, watchfully and with deadly
assurance. How they crept up to the
Filter in such numbers and how the
more daring came aboard long before

confidence that had carried him to Bar
bara Drew with a declaration Of love
to the stunning, worldly Barbara-and
smiled bitterly when he saw how base
" the two allies were deserting him In
this hour Of love for Peggy Gray. For
some reason he had felt sure Of Bar
bara; for another reason he saw no
chance with Peggy. She was not the
same sort: she was different. She was
well, she was Peggy.
Occasionally his reflections assumed
the Importance Of calculations. His
cruise was sure to cost 100000, a
princely sum, but not enough. Swear
engen Jones and his cablegram did not
awe him to a great extent. The spend
ing Of the million had become mania
with him now, and he had no regard
for consequences. His one desire, aside
from Peggy, was to increase the cost
Of the cruise. They were leaving Gil
braltar when new idea came into his
troubled head.
He decided to change his plans and
sail for the North cape, thereby adding
more than $4,000 to his credit.

ed conversation food For days and Gays
among both the seamen and the pas
sengers. Dan DeMille blamed himself
relentlessly for sleeping through it all
and moped for hours because he had
lost magnificent chance to 'do some
thing" The next morning he proposed
to hunt for the sheik and offered to
lead an assault in person. An investl-
CATION was made, and government Of
fcials tried to call Mohammed to ac-
count, but he had fed to the desert
and the search was fruitless.
Brewster refused to accept share
Of the glory Of Peggy's rescue, pushing
Conroy forward as the real hero. But
the sailor insisted that he could not
have succeeded without help-that he
was completely exhausted when Monty
came to the rescue. Peggy found it
hard to thank him gently while her
heart was so dangerously near the riot
point, and her words Of gratitude
sounded pitifully weak and insufficient.
''It would have been the same had
anybody else gone to her rescue" he
mused dejectedly. "She cares for me
with the devotion of a sister, and that's
all. Peggy, Peggy" he moaned, ''if
you could only love me, Pd-Td-oh,
we'll, there's no use thinking about it!
She will love some one else, Of course,
and-and be happy too. If she'd ap-
pear only one-tenth as grateful to me
as to Conroy I'd be satisfied. He had
the luck to be first, that's all, but God
knows I tried to do it,
Mrs. Dan DeMille was keen enough
to see how the land lay, and she at
once tried to set matters straight. She
was far too clever to push her cam
paign ruthlessly, but laid her founda-
tons and then built cunningly and Sc
curely with the most substantial mate
rial that came to hand from day to
day. Her subjects we're taking them
selves too deeply to heart to appre-
ciate interference on the part Of an out
slider, and Mrs. Dan was wise in the
whims Of love.
Peggy was not herself for several
days after her experience, and the
whole party felt distinct relief when
the yacht. finally left the harbor and
steamed off to the west. A cablegram
that came the day before may have
had something to do with Brewster's
depression, but he was not the sort to
confess it. 1t was from Swearengen
Jones Of Butte, Mont, and there was
something sinister in the laconic ad-
monition. It read:
Brewster, T. S. Consulate, Alexandria:
Have a good time while good times
last. JONES.
His brain was almost bursting with
the hopes and fears and uncertainties
that crowded it far beyond its ordinary
capacity. It had come to the point, it
seemed to him, when the brains Of q
dozen men at least were required to
operate the affairs that were surging
into his alone. The mere fact that the
end Of his year was less than two
months of and that there was more or
less uncertainty as to the character OF
the end was sufficient cause for wor-
~, but the new trouble was infinitely
harder to endure. When he sat down
to think over his financial enterprises
his mind treacherously wandered of to
Peggy Gray, and then everything was
hopeless. He recalled the courage and
