CHAPTER VI.
The BaseIess Fabric.

True philosophy is ascetic. It may best be practiced under conditions in which the material is in abeyance. It exalts the spiritual. It is distinguished by indifference to environment There is nothing so fatal to its profession as extravagance. Frugality is to the philosopher what modesty is to a woman-the essential thing without which it and she cease to be.
 The atmosphere into which Rather inc Brenton was suddenly plunged by her bold step was the very antithesis of thase requirements. It was un- healthy, and like unhealthy airs 1t bred disaster She had been trained to independence of conditions. to dis regard of circumstances, as well as to disdain of restraint; but there was that within her surroundings which, from her first experience of them, she felt instinctively to be vitiating, which tended to deprave, which precluded the exercise of clear, uninhuenced mentality. Especially in her case was this true since the luxury with which she had been surrounded appealed so subtly to the preponderant, and It must be admitted. immortal feminine in her composition. Sex distinction, sex difference was the one thing against which she fought Sex equality was the supreme good to be desired in her scheme of right relationships be tween the individual and the universe. While she rebelled against her sex, ye she rejoiced in it. Glad was she sometimes on that very account that to her was given the opportunity to prove her superiority to the limita- tions, disabilities and man.made tram meIs of womankind.

these cabalistic words. "lI Cor. 12: 15," which she presently divined to be reference to some text in the Bible, fit source from which to select the ''posy of ring" agreeable to those who submit to such ancient follies as the well-named bonds of matrimony.
 She reached for the Bible and with unfamiliar fingers searched through it until she found the place: 'I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly l love you, the less I be loved" The beauty of the phrase caught her fancy. She read with strange new interest the chapter in which these words were shrined. The touch of human passion came to her across the long years and with the ring sparkling in her own white hand she embodied it's tradition in personality and the wom- an who had been so loved stood be- fore her. Her eyes fell again upon the man and the dream was broken.
 She pieced together now all that she had of him, smiling as she did so at the thought of certain strange stnr- les she had read wherein men of mar velous deductive powers had brought to solution problems which appeared as impossible of detection as this pre- sented to her.
 John Reyell Charnock, evidently the father of the man of the island, had married one M P T. on the 10th of September, 1869. Perhaps within a year afterward this John Revell Char nook. assuming him, as was likely. to have borne his fathers name. was born. The best English stock in the colony were Massachusetts and Vir- gjnia. The stern piece of the boat borne the name of Virginia river and of a Virginia town The man before her was a Virginian, therefore. Say he was born in 1871, it would make him 25 years old, in accordance with her first guess. The father and mother, possibly ruined by the results of the civil war. had embarked on some vessel to seek fortune in new land. Something had happened to 1 the shin and the woman, the little boy and the dog had landed In some way upon these shores alone after some horrible voyage. perhaps like that she had passed through. The boy must have been five or six years old, else be would have died being deserted. { The woman had. indeed, died, and the uog with her. and left the lad alone. Alone he had been for score or xsars on that island. What watchfui Providence? stop oho oo ueved in no Providence. What strange mysterious fate kept him from the fate of the other two. had preserved h,,, atona for her7

to her for her purpose. because she did not believe in it. The truth was in her and she could tell him what 1t was despite the assertion of the printed pages.
 In the leather bag there was abso- lutely nothing except broken glass and scratched bottle tops of silver and the bag itself was ruined. She sepa- rated the pieces of metal and the metal fittings of the bag, which were also of silver, and filling the rotting leather with sand she presently sank it in the lagoon.
 Last of all shc examined what she had brought from the other shore of the island the night before. The sill yer was tarnished, but by rubbing it in the sand she soon frightened it. It vas heavily engraved and she had no difficulty in making out the words: John Revell Charnock-His Dog" After that was date July z2. 1875" John Revell Charnock then would be 21 years old, assuming that this was he and that the dog had been given him when he was born. It was more probable, however. that he was from three to five years old before he became the owner of a dog, which would make him about 25.
 The man before her looked younger to her scrutiny than that. Care and trouble had passed him by. With nothing to vex him he might have been any age. He would probably took just as he was for 20 years or more. Still fancifully adjusting ex ternal relations to internal relations which, after all. she realized was the secret of life according to her fayorite philosopher, she concluded that the man was 25, three years older than she at that moment. proper diner ence in their ages for Hei face famed.

When it appeared 1t came wth surprising swiftness The woman found that in neither abstract thought nor mental speculation was there any protection for her. There might be no God in heaven. but there was con. science in her breast. Finally she broke away from the man so far as she could do SO when they were both in the same ship of which he was ford and master. She would have nothing more to do with him save that which common deceRcy and the bare cfvili ties of life demanded of her. Denied the privileges upon which he had counted. the man grew savage and showed the eleven foot The disagree aent became quarrel The quarrel ran through several phases. Ashamed of himself he had recanted at first. Then he had sworn again allegiance to the spacious philisophy which she now realized he had only professed, consciously or unconsciously, that he might possess her. But she was not deceived. There was no truth In lys words his asseverations carried no conviction to her soul. Again he stormed and ragged; once more he apologized and appealed. but the periods of calm grew shorter and the periods of storm grew longer and more vehement. The woman alone was steadfast. She was overwhelmed with shame, the horror sf the situation was rising upon her.

She faced the future calmly. recognizing her chance and her work and set about with syste matic method, order and persistence to teach this man what 1t was to be a human being, to give him, as rapidly as she might communicate 1t and as he might receive 1t. all the learning sho possessed, to compensate him with no further delay for those 25 years of silence.

She re- gretted that she had not given more lime to the study of nature, to the fa..na and flora of the South seas, to the conditions of wind and weather under which life was lived there. Much philosophy would she gladly have narted with for such practical infor- nation. She had to piece her ideas of affairs out from scraps and tags of knowledge, unclassified, incoherent; from vague recollections of childhood stories and romances; from carelessly scanned collections of voyages, books of travel and adventure. The result was unsatisfactory. In some particu- lars the instinctive man before her was her master. At the things which went to make up physical comfort and well being in state of absolute na- ture he certainly surpassed her.
 She was thankful when she walked abroad that she had the shelter of the cave, for everything was drenched from the terrific downpour. If it was the beginning of the wet season she knew that the rains would soon come again. Still she luxuriated in what freedom she had. Without removing her single garment she plunged into the lagoon for refreshing bath. The man followed her and swan about her moving slowly. with less skill than she, but as easily as porpoise plunges about the bow of a progress ing ship.
 Refreshed, she came back to the mouth of the cave and brought thence for a careful inspection all her worldly possessions, save the little heau of clothing which she had care fully piled upon the tutting shelf in the shadow of the cave for time of need. She ranged them on the sands before her. There was the Bible and the little silver box which she had found in the cave. She examined more critically it's contents, wondering
