dried mud Of the hummocks or in the
ankle-deep water of the boys, they felt
their way without slip or stumble.
Winthrope, though burdened only
with the h%alf-eaten eoryphene, toiled
along behind, greatly troubled by the
mud and the tangled reeds, and now
and then flung down by some unlucky
misstep. His modish suit, already
much damaged by the salt water, was
soon smeared afresh with a coating of
greenish slime. His one consolation
was that Blake, after jeering at his first
tumble, paid no o attention to
him. On the other hand, he was cut
by the seeming Indifference of Miss
Leslie. Intent on his w misery, he
failed to consider that the girl might
be suffering far greater discomfort and
humiliation.
More than three miles had been o v
cred before Blake stopped on a hum
mock. Releasing Miss Leslie, he
stretched out on the dry crest of the
knoll and called for a slice of the fish.
At his urging the others took a few
m%outhfuls, although their threats were
SO parched that even the moist flesh
afforded scant relief. Fortunately for
them all, Blake had been thoroughly
less than ten minutes; then taking
Miss Leslie up again like a rag doll,
he swung away at a good pace.

The trees were less than half a
mile distant when he halted for the
second time. He would have gone to
them without a pause, though his mus
Giles were %quivering with exhaustion,
had not Miss Leslie CHANGED to look
around and discover that Winthrope
was no longer following them. For
the last mile he had been tagging
farther and farther behind, and now
he had suddenly disappeared. At the
girls dismayed exclamation, Blake re-
leased his hold and she found herself
standing in a foot or more of mud and
water. The sweat was streaming
down Blake's face. AS he turned
around, he wiped it off with his shirt
sleeves.
DO you-can it be, Mr.. Blake, that
he has had a sunstroke?' asked Miss
Leslie.
"Sunstroke? No; he's just laid
down, that's all. ! thought he had
more sand-confound HIM"
"But the sun is SO %dreadfully hot,
and have his shade"
And he's been tumbling into every

half a mind to let him lie-the paper

Surely, you would not do that. Mr..
Blake, 1t may be that he has hurt
himself in falling"
In this mud?-bah, But | guess
I'm in for the pack-mule stunt all
around, Now, now; don't yowl, Miss
Jenny. I'm going. But you can't ex-
pect me to love the snob."
AS he splashed away on the return
trail, Miss Leslie dabbed at her eyes
to check the starting tears.
"Oh, dear-Oh, dear!" she moaned;
what have l done to be so treated
Such a brute. oh, dear!-and | am so
thirsty!"
In her despair she would have sunk
down where she stood had not the
sliminess of the water repealed her.
She gazed longingly at the trees, in
the fore of which stood a grove of
stately palms. The half-mile seemed
an insuperable distance, but the ride
on Blake's back had rested her and
thirst goaded her forward.
Stumbling and slipping she waded
on across the inundated ground, and
came out upon a half-baked mud-fat,
where the walking was much easier.
But the sun was 10 almost directly
overhead, and between her thirst and
the heat she soon found herself falter-
ing. She tottered on a few steps
farther, and then stopped, utterly
spent. AS she sank upon the dried
rushes she glanced around and was
vaguely conscious of a strange, double
headed figure following her path
across the marsh. All about her be-
came black.
The next she knew Blake was

You cawn't just say! And what
are we going to eat?'
Here are the c~ocoanuts."
Bright boy! go to the head of the
class! Just take some more hust off
those empty ones"
Winthrope caught up one of the
nuts, and with the aid of his knife
stripped it of its husk. At a gesture
from Blake he laid it ON the bare
open with a blow of his heel. 1t was
IN immature nut, and the meat proved
to be little thicker than clotted cream.
Blake divided it into three parts, hand
ing Miss Leslie the cleanest.
Though his companions began with
shares with equal gusto. Winthrope
needed nc further orders to return to
his husking. One after another the
nuts were cracked and divided among
the three, until even Blake could not
swallow another mouthful of the
luscious cream.
Toward the end Miss Leslie had be-
come drowsy. At Winthrope's urg
ing. she now lay down for a nap,
Blake's coat serving as a pillow. She
fell asleep while Winthrope was yet
arranging It for her. Blake had
turned his back on her and was staring
moodily at the hippopotamus trail
when Winthrope hobbled around and
sat down on the palm trunk beside
him.

ship wreck of the steamer on which Miss
Genevieve Leslie. an American heiress.

Blake, a brusque American. were passen-
gers. The three were tossed upon an I'M
Inhabited island and were the only ones

1ect raised to her lips. winthrop was
waving to him.
"Cocoanuts!n he yelled. Come on"
Three of the palms had been over-
thrown by the hurricane. and when
Blake came up he found the ground
strewn with nuts. He seized the first
he came to; but WINTHROP held out
one already opened. He snatched 1t
from him and placed the hole to his
swollen lips. Never had champagne
tasted half so delicious as that cocoa
nut milk. Before he could drain the
last of it through the little opening
Winthrope had the husks torn from
the ends of two other nuts. and the
convenient germinal spots gouged
open with his penknife.
Blake emptied the third before he
spoke. Even then his voice was
hoarse and strained. How'd you
strike 'em?"
Il couldn't help it," explained Win
thrope. Hardly had you disappeared
when I noticed the tops of the fallen
palms and thought of the nuts. There
was one in the grass not 20 feet from
where we lay"
Lucky for you-and for me, too,
guess" said Blake. 1--WE were all
three down for the count. But this
settles the fist round in our favor.
How do you like the picnic, Miss
jenny"
Miss Leslie, II you please" replied
the girl, with hauteur.
"Oh, say, Miss JENNY" protested
Blake, genially. I'VE live In the same
boarding house now. Why not be
folksy? You're free to call me Tom.
Pass me another nut, W~inthrope.
