This added ought to bring d return to tho association of anywhere between two and three hundred thousand dol lars per annum for all time to come. at the most conservative estimate. President F. A.

 notably reduce the assessments to meet the annual payments due the government.
 This plan was not to be undertaken unless the assurance of the secretary could be secured that he would delay the opening for two years pending the collection of these assessments. An other desirable result of such q plan would be that meanwhile the lands under, the project are securing the benefits of storage just as though the project were completed and the open

away, she would find occupation, in

man.
He lay so still and so quiet that
presently she arose and tiptoed softly
to the entrance where unseen she
could look down upon him. The moor
rose back of the hill. Although he
was in the shadow, there was still re
fraction sufficient to enable her to see
his face. He was asleep. The quiet
dreamless, unveXed sleep of a healthy
animal, she thought. Their positions
were reversed. He had watched hel

Instinctively she shrank from the

was oppressive; the rusty scissors fell
from her hand and at last she slipped
down upon the sand and drifted away
into that slumber, that suspension of
consciousness in which for the mo-
ment she was even as the man.
The upper edge of the sun was just
springing from the sea when its level
rays woke her. She opened her eyes

CHAPTER III.
The Word of the Book.

This awakening was not as had been
that of yesterday. She prided herself
on being in full possession of her fac
ulties at once and she arose instantly
and stepped out upon the sand. The
man gave way to her respectfully as
she passed through the entrance. The
mind is brightest in the early morn
ing after sleep. She would give him
another concept before the uses of the
day, impaired his receptivity. She had
differentiated him from the rest of Gre

was a man. She would show him now

claring herself woman She laid her

with that. 1t was pitiful, as she saw
1t, that with nascent soul to work
with. she should be compelled to en-
tighten it through the medium of time
worn superstition
Below the shelf, not quite buried IN
the sand, there was small metal box.
She knelt down, scraped the sand
away and presently uncovered 1t. It
appeared to be of silver. 1t was of
such size that she could clasp It
easily in her hand. She opened 1t not
without some difficulty and found with
in it-nothing! Well, not exactly
nothing, but certainly that for which
she could see little value. There were
several hard pieces Of stone of a red
dish color Clipped and shaped in curl
GUS fashion. She turned the box over
and examined it on all sides. There
were initials upon it, a monogram. She
rubbed it clean with her hands and
studied 1t carefully. r. c." The
book and the box had belonged to the
same person, John Revell Charnock.
She laid the box aside and searched
the cave further. There was abso-
lutely nothing else to be seen. Disap.
pointed vaguely, although she had ex-
pected nothing and had gotten more,
indeed, than she might have imagined
If she had thought about it, she laid
the book and box down upon the ledge
and went out again. She walked along
the sands until she came to the place
where she had landed the day be-
fore. The tide was low. She could
see the wreck of her boat, partly on
the barrier reef and partly in the
water. 1t would have been no trick
for her to swim to it in the stiffness,
yet she hesitated to attempt it. Ger.
tainly weighted down by all her cloth
ing it was matter of difficulty and
Inconvenience. If it were not for this
man by her side! She tried to think
of some way to restrain him, keep him
away, but nothing occurred to her. In
vention was paralyzed by the situation
in which she found herself.
Desperately bidding him stay where
he was, she went back to the cave.
She was face to face with crisis
which had to be met. Indeed, the
question of clothes was becoming
very serious one with her and she
knew she should have to decide upon
some course of action Immediately.
For the present, she took off her gar
ments, hoping and praying in a SILVER
of dread and anxiety, that he would
remain where she had left him, which
indeed proved the fact. She laid aside
all that she had worn except the
blouse and skirt, including her sadly
worn shoes and stockings Thus light
ly clad she came out on the sand again.
He did not notice any change in her
condition. AS matter of fact she
gave him no time, for she flashed
across the sand at full speed and
plunged boldly into the smiling water
of the lagoon. He followed her In
stantly and swan by her side with
scarcely any exerticn whatever.
