hoisted the single sail it bore. After
an hour Of vexatious backing and
filling, she thought the breeze was
growing stronger and by four o'clock
to her great joy the wind had settled
and was blowing steady from the
southeast, straight up the channel,
that is
There are two entrances to Ports
mouth harbor; one between the Isle
of Wight and the mainland, the So
lent, and the other around the south
ern extremity Of the same island.
Ellen had drifted seaward during the
night and she decided that her best
course was to round the island and
run up to the harbor with beam
wind. The breeze was growing strong
er every moment. Indeed, the little
boat keeled over SO far that some
times the lee gunwales were peril
ously near the water line.
Presently, Ellen woke up Debbie in
order to trim the ship, bidding her
crawl up to windward Before Deb
bic took her position. they made such
morning meal as they could on tepid
water and the remains Of the hard
bread, and then settled down for their
run into the harbor The little boat
was jumping and pitching fearfully,
but Debbie was almost as good a
sailor as Ellen, and she suffered no in
convenience from the wild motion.
AS for Ellen. her heart exulted. She
had something to do besides think.
The sailing Of the boat required all
her skill and ability. 1t was no light
task to hold the helm in one hand and
the sheet in the other and fight her
way through the rising seas. The boat
rode the water like duck, however,
and did not ship drop Of spray.
They were well past cambridge
when the day broke fair and clear.
Ellen had been SO occupied with the
business Of sailing the boat that she
had not paid any attention to what
was astern Of her. 1t was Dcbbie
who about a half hour afte, sunrise

To cast of the lines, hoist the sails,

Of few moments. Darlington stood
quietly while the skillful men worked
busily around him. but SO soon as the
wind filled the sail and the boat gath

Haight at the helm and sailed the
boat himself. And no one in that
harbor knew how to do it better
than he.

Strathgate did not blanch. He bal

Would you add murder to your 9TH
er follies?" he answered.
He was an easy mark, the distance
was short, Darlington was a sure shot,
and If ever man had murder in his
heart it was in that Of Ellen's hus-
band. Yet there was something in
the dauntless way in which Strath-
gate faced him and in the fact that
the latter appeared unarmed. that
caused Darlington, with finger
upon the trigger. to stay the pressure.
why don't you fire, my lord?"
cried Strathgate.
Draw your weapon, Strathgate,"
said Darlington, dropping the point of
his own pistol.
"Tm sorry to say that I'm unarmed."
There was no use Darlington could
not kill him Inder the circumstances.
He stood staring after him for mo-
ment, and then raised his hand and
shook 1t In the air.
God have mercy on you If meet
you again!" he cried
Take the peril to yourself, Lord
Darlington" Strathgate called out
and with farewell wave of his hand
the cutter shot out beyond the extrem-
ity Of the pier, and, catching the full
force Of the breeze, which happened to
be blowing straight up the harbor, ne
cessitating hard beat out against it.,
bore away toward the opposite shore.
Pistol in hand, Darlington turned
and confronted the astonished crowd
which had gathered in his rear.

The men facing him looked from

Darlington thrust the pistol back
into his belt, tore out his pocketbook,
opened 1t, and took out ten-pound

Abuse of the Picture Postcard.

From the New York World
Herr Schwartz of Germany is dead
His invention of the postal picture card
lives after him and has become many
things to many people
AS originally designed, the illustrated
postcards offered medium of education
al intercourse between persons living or
visiting in different places-even different
lands. There were pictures of rivers,
mountains, public buildings and sections
of towns usually from photographs. Por-
trait cards followed naturally. Then came
the rush of art postals, of freak de-
signs and inevitably, of cards devoted
to improper suggestions and downright
obscenities.
In the United States the postoffice lines
were drawn long ago against postcards
of vicious and salacous intent. Within
few days it has been found necessary
to bar from the mails certain pictures
and legends based on southern lynch
ings. The cable now reports English
sentiment is shocked and angry over the
vulgar products of French ingenuity
which food the mails and are displayed
in the shop Windows of industrial towns
popular watering places and some sec
tons of London.
Even with regard to postcards OF prop
er design their collection has become
fad almost of the proportions of NUS
ance- in ordinary.
