The door swung open. Every eye
drifted from Billy's compelling ones and
hush of surprise held the table. They
had watched a tall, graceful darkly
beautiful creature disappear into that
buffers pantry. Entered a fair. petite,
brisk young thing, carrying the silver
tray. wearing the lacy cap and apron.
Eleven pairs of inquiring eyes re-
turned to Billy.

Billy told the story entirely through,
! lingering over it's details, and it lasted
until the blonde-haired waitress had
removed the plates and brought the
next course. With her disappearance
Treleaven seemed to awaken to what
was expected of a guest of honor and
a recently returned wanderer Thrilling
adventure and clever story followed one
another until the last eye ceased to
wander and Billy's careworn counten-
ance relaxed. 1t was a scene to crafty
any host; a table beautiful with the

any chef might have claimed with
pride; the pick of the fraternity gath
cred about the board; and. as chief or
nament. a genuine explorer, the young
est but not the least famous of the last

their attention between Treleaven and

was scintiilant with witty converse and
fraternal exchange of views. Once
more cheerful pride sat upon the broad
brow of the host. He would let An

a glow of approval Now, if that niece
of hers don't spill the soup the way she
did last time"
Mr.. Treleaven. broad, blonde six feet

a description of how he killed his first
polar bear. and Billy was keeping one
attentive and enthusiastic eye on him
and one anxious one on the door on the
buffers pantry. And there 1 was"
said Treleaven.
The door swung open. A maid en-
tered. She wore lacy cap and apron
She carried a silver tray. She looked
as if it would be an impossibility for
her to spill things. But Billy turned a
