the third mate and quartermaster in the

missing adjectives:

hour since the sun rose to blister the

their earth and crushed-marigold smell.

Capt. Image was speaking in plain earn

O'Neill was seized with a sudden qualm.
Was she right to force on this risk: Would
the Okky-men attack or could they bring
off the cargo successfully? Nobody bue

dusky Laura, so much the better for trade.
He's the neatest trick of making native
curios in all West Africa. and I've got all
his home business in my hand. It's all
rot about his trading with another purser;
there isn't one the coast that works
this line, or 1 should have heard about
and work up a connection with America
Ny whiskers! why not? What's wrong
with enriching the United States with
some good broad-bladed okky spears and
a war horn or two just as 6" Hullo
yes who's that? All, come In.
There was a knock at the purser's door,
and White Man s-Trouble entered in reply
to the invitation. "Oh, Purser," he said,
dem bug" and opened a black fist and
showed three electric-blue butterflies in
his white palm.
The purser took them one by one in his
plump fingers and dropped them gingerly
into an empty cardboard cigarette box
Il don't think they'll be much use, boy
You've rubbed too much fun on with
those delicate paws of yours. Savvy?
II savvy fit for DASH" said the Kroo-
boy pointedly.
Pooh. these are worth nothing. What
do you take me for? tripper or the
fernal thieving monkey" Mr.. Ralgarnie
had turned his back and had glanced in
shaving mirror which hung by the port
and saw White Man Trouble helping
himself to a Tauchnitz novel, which he
promptly tucked underneath his coat.
The krooboy put the book down. He
did not waste time in apolOg1Zlng Tor the
theft of something that was entirely use
less to him. He went straight to matter
of far graver interest.
''Oh, Purser, how you seen me take dem
thing? You no see with you eyes. You
eyes lib for look out of window"
Attend" said Mr.. Balgarnie, and struck
an attitude II am the man known to
science as the Freak-who- has-eyes-at 1.-THE
back-of-h his head. Observe, I have my
back to you and yet I can see that you are
picking your nose with your strong left
hand, and scratching the floor with your
starboard toe"
II no fit for see you back eyes"
THAT is because they are ju-ju eyes.
Oh, White-Man's- Trouble, 1 bid you fear
the Power of Darkness and steal no more
anything that is mine. You savvy?"
"Savvy plenty!'
"And as further punishment, bid you
catch me ten more butterflies, and take
care you don't rub the feathers off, or
they'll be no use to Miss Kate
Missy Kate. What for she want dem
bug? Dem no fit for chop"
ITO make ju-ju off,
White Man s-Trouble grinned. Miss
Kate no savvy ju-ju palaver. Dem Car

an she say, We'll, dere no ju-ju about
him. Oh, Purser, 1 say dem god with
talk pipe plenty too-much, fine ju-ju.
Okky-men savvy plenty him ju-ju."
Your theology's a bit above my head,
but 1 don't mind telling you in confidence
that butterfly collectings the lady's
habit Just the same as-let me see-just
the same as stealing things that are no use
