He was stepping past her. when
over the seaward edge OF the cliff
there came sound like the yell of

about.
The cloud of smoke beyond the elf

left. He dashed away towards the
north edge of the clin as though he
intended to leap off into space. The
girl ran after him as fast as she could
over the loose stones. Before she had
covered half the distance she saw him
halt on the very brink of the cliff
and begin to wave and shout like a
mailman. A few steps farther on she
caught sight of the steamer. 1t was
lying close in, only little way off
the north point of the headland.
Even as she saw the vessel, its siren
responded to Blake's wild gestures
with a series of joyous screams. There
could be no mistake He had been
seen. Already they were letting go
anchor, and there was little crowd
of men gathering about one of the
boats. Blake turned and started on a
run for the cliff. But Miss Leslie
darted before him, compelling him to

CHAPTER XIV.
In Double Salvation.


FAU4M{ HEN, an hour or more after
VI " dawn the next morning,
--=sS9 the girl slowly drew open
her door and came out of the cave
Blake was nowhere in sight. She
sighed, vastly relieved, and fastened
across to battle her flushed face in
the spring. Stopping every few mo-
ments to listen for his step down the
cleft she gathered up hamper of
food and fed to the tree-ladder.
AS she drew herself up on the cliff
she noticed a thin column of smoke
rising from the last smouldering
brands of a beacon fire that had been
built in the midst of the bird colony
on the extreme outer edge of the
heedland. She did not. however, OBJ
serve that, while the smoke column
streamed up from the fire directly
skyward beyond it there was much
larger volume of smoke, which seemed
to have eddied down the cliff face and
was now rolling up into view from out
over the sea. She gave no heed to
this, for the sight of the beacon had
instantly alarmed her with the pos
sibility that Blake was still on the
headland and would imagine that she
was seeking him.
She paused, her cheeks afiame. But
the only sign of Blake that she could
see was the fire itself. She reflected
that he might very well have left be-
fore dawn. AS likely as not he had
descended at the north end of the
cleft and had gone off to the river to
start his catamaran. At the thought
all the color ebbed from her cheeks
and left her white and trembling.
Again she stood hesitating. With a
sigh she started on toward the signal
staff.
She was close upon the border of
the bird colony when Blake sat up and
she found herself staring into his
blinking eyes.
"Hello!" he mumbled, drowsily. He
sprang up wide awake. and flushing
with the guilty consciousness of what
he had done Look at the subway
up! Didn't mean to oversleep, Miss
Leslie. You see I was up pretty late
tending the beacon. But of course
that's no excuse"

the girl with his eyes averted.
Come on" he muttered.
The scarlet in the girls cheeks
swept over her whole face in burn
ing wave, which ebbed slowly and left
her colorless. Blake had started off
without a backward glance. She gazed
about with bewilGered look at the
palms and the barren ridge and the
fiery tidal wave of fame. Her gaze
came back to Blake, and she followed
him.
Within short distance she found
herself out of the sheltering lee of the
ridge. The first wind gust almost
overthrow her. She could never have
walked against such gale: but with
the wind at her back she was buoyed
up and borne along as though on
wings Her sole effort was to keep
her foothold. Had it been their morn
ing trip she could have cried out with
JOY and skipped along before the gusts
like a schoolgirl. Now she walked as
soberly as the wind would permit, and
took care not to lessen the distance
between herself and Blake.
Mile by mile they fastened back
across the plain--on their right tho
blue sea of water, with its white
caps and spray; on their left the yell
low sea of fire, with its dun fog of
smoke.
Once only had Blake looked back
to see if the girl was following. After
hot hA al
head. his gaze upon the ground, Even
when he passed in under the grove
and around the pool to the foot of the
cleft he began the ascent without
waiting to assist her up the break in
the path. The girl came after, her
lips firm, her eyes bright and ex-
pectant. She drew herself up the
ledge as though she had been bred to
mountain climbing.
Inside the barricade Blake was
waiting to close the opening. She
crept through and rose to catch him
by the sleeve.
