He had heard the woman's defense. her splen. did Justification of her course. the bit. ter repentance that had followed 1t. but without that appreciation of what justification there was for her and tho value Of her remorse which the ac- count should have brought 10 him. He had observed Whittaker's prompt and touching expression of confidence and reverence, but without understanding It's force and power. Indeed. he had instinctive shrewdness enough to realize that even though the sailors, touched by the act of gallantry and moved with pity for the young woman who stood there lovely in her sadness. had cheered. yet the world would be very slow to the same expression. He saw that the woman was face to lace with crisis; that she would either have to accept or de- cline Langford's offer to marry her at once
 His heart was filled with bitter rage. He knew that he loved the woman; ; that he never would love any person but the woman, but nevertheless the resentment against fate which had placed him in so awful a position, of whose malign purposes he had been the blind, ignoble victim, was so great that for the time being his love was in abeyance. He pitied himself. he loathed Lasgford, he was contemp. tuously indifferent to the world, and for the moment he almost hated the woman. The sub-consciousness that he had that this was as unsrateful as It was unwarranted added to hIa wretohedness and misery.

T will confess it." said Langford 'T was a brute to her. I drank; I ac. knowledged that had a wife; I said she was in my power; called her vile names."
 There was low growl. a muttered roar from the men behind Whitaker. Even Langford's own men, in his own pay, shrank back from him. The man was frightfully pale, yet he went on resolutely, Whitaker stilling the tu- mutt with upraised hand.
 NO one" he cried. "can think more hatefully of human being than I think of myself now have not learned her philosophy; have learned another and a better. In some sort of way at least l know that can never be happy until have made her happy. I know that I love her now as I should have loved her then. that I have hunted these seas for her without ceasing since she left me in 8 drunken stupor one night"
 Left you how?" asked the lieuten- ant commander.
 T am not quite clear. I must have descended very low" said Langford 'T remember some sort of scene at supper, and when I awoke in the morning, or I didn't wake for six months, they found me in the morn Ing with fractured skull on the cab In floor, and they took me back to the United States.

Allow me to assure you of my sincerest commiseratiop. my deepest respect, my most profound admiration. You have suffered, but innocently. If 1 may speak the voice of society, If may stand for the world as your companion has said. can only express my reverence for you and my homage to you in this way"
 He stepped nearer to her, he seized her hand. He was an old-fashioned, humble-minded. quixotic sort of a sailor. if you will. for before anybody realized what he was about. he bent his head low over 1t and kissed it. And the sailors behind him and the ma. rines in rank broke into a hearty cheer.
 There, madam" said Whitaker, you have the approbation of society for my act. As for you. sir.' he turned toward Langford, T should be untrue to manhood if I did not say what you yourself have said; that you acted not only like brute and a coward, but, sir. when I look at the lady, am constrained to add like a fool"
 Langford started forward, but the lieutenant checked him.
 Having said all that, I must admit that ycu have conducted yourself since that time as man of honor and as a gentleman. l have no doubt that your offer will be accepted; that the world will forgive you us it will ad- mire and respect your wife"
 'Nol" cried the man of the island, suddenly.
 He had kept silence. resolved to hear 1t all out without Interruption. He had suffered as the miserable story had been unfolded to such an extent that ali that he had gone through with before seemed like child's play. He had heard Langfords noble confession.
