BROUGHT Up HOT WATER.
The Friction of the Boat Made the
Ocean Almost Boil

Ocean Almost Roll
The steamship was speeding over
seas with a record breaking list Of
passengers when one of the gay,
young and inquiring girls who are
found on every trip skipped up to
the captain aud asked
"Captain, are We really going fast
II seems as If we are just crowl-
ing"
Fast" answered the captain gruff-
ly, of course we're going fast. With
nothing TO see but water and sky
you can't Judge our speed. but my
dear young lady, the friction Of the
boat is so great 1t makes the water
hot aft"
Il don't believe it, giggled the girl,
and the captain, with a great show
of indignation, called for rope and
bucket to prove his words. These
brought, he slung the pail down aft
Of the vessel directly under the drain
pipe of the galley. where hot water
runs all day and brought It up smok-
ing, to the astonishment of the
awestruck girl.
A long, lean Yankee who had been
watching the performance then came
forward and drawled. Say, cap, that
must make you change your course
mighty often"
"Change my course?" clustered the
captain. What would / change my
course for?"
We'll, said the Yankee slowly, so
darn much friction as that must wear
the ocean out mighty quick. ."-Phila-

her. All his will power was directed
to keeping the real significance of the

She had turned to him quite casual

what you really thought was true, or
were you just encouraging mel

the yacht? Are you afraid, after ALL
that our people are not in possession
of the Aurora, wherever she is?"
q told you the truth last night
can't imagine any possibility by which
the men who came here on the Wal
rus could get the Aurora away from
your people, except by stealth"
But if our people beat them off.
why didn't they come ashore? There
aren't any of them around. are there?"
Apparently not" said Cayley.
They may have all been killed before
they could get back to shore, or some
Of them may have been captured No,
I really don't think you need worry
about them"
She drew long deep breath, flung
out her arms wide. and then stretched
them skyward. What a day it is.

"A giant"

Because he literally was. He

His father abandoned the subject
abruptly, and for a while contrived to
talk of other things; of the details of
the fight and how different members
of the crew had borne themselves.
But his mind was filled with new
terror, and as soon as he could feel
that his son was in condition to be
left alone. he left him, with a broken
word of excuse. He must either set
this new terror at rest, or know the
worst at once There had been no

way resembled the monster Tom had

Warner He thought that they had

had sounded a new abyss beneath il

been so easily taken. He knew all the
