His eyes followed the direction in
which she had pointed. but could
make out nothing in the deep, vibrant
blue shadows.
That's likely enough" he told her.
1T was probably bear. II IL was,
we're in luck. I'll come back by and
by and go cunning for him. But first,
I'm going to take you-home."
She had used the word before, but
in what sense he was not entirely
sure; and she had undoubtedly used
1t not more than half consciously. At
any rate. when he said it now she
flushed little, and so did he. and
their eyes, meeting, frightened sud
denly.
Silently he turned away from her
and began furling up his wings, and
she helped him. as she had helped
him that other time when he had tried
to convince her that he was not a
dream.
When 1t was done, they set out
slowly. in the deepening twilight, for
the hut.

Discoveries.

1 discoveries.
The sunlight Of another crystalline
day had made path of gold across
the floor and half way up the wall
when Philip reused himself from what
he had intended to make the merest
cat-nap on one of the hunks, and with
difficulty rubbed his eyes open. The
SAVIOUR of something good to eat was
already in his nostrils.
Jeanne, with her back to him, was
/ bending over the fire, busy with the
breakfast She heard him stirring.
and looked around.
"Oh, I'm sorry" she said. 81 didn't
mean to bang that pan down that way.
! meant you to go on sleeping for
hours and hours"
Looking fairly at him as he sat
there on the bunk she saw his hands
clutch tightly over the edge of it:
saw the color 60 ebbing out of his
face and then come surging back
again. She had seen him do that once
before.

ter7bf-fact infection was a little exag
gerated. IT'S nearly ready"
When they had finished, and while
they still sat face to face across the
board plank which had served them
for table, Cayley leaned forward q
little and, smiling. asked a question,
What's the secret. Jeanne? Your
eyes have been shining with mystery

She laughed. You're much too pen

CHAPTER XIV.
The Rebound Book.

BY the time they had reached the
headland, the whole beach before
them was enveloped in the sapphire
shadow Of the cliff, and the little clus-
ter of huts toward which they were
trudging was hardly distinguishable
II was not until they had halved the
distance that the girl made out the
little plume of rose-colored smoke that
foated above Philips newly construct
ed chimney.
But the next instant he laid a hand
upon her arm and, with the other,
pointed imperatively down the beach
toward the hut Whether you saw
him before, or not" he said, with a
short grim laugh, you caa see him
now"
Looking where he pointed, she saw
big, yellowish-white, ungainly thing
come numbering round the corner OF
the hut. upon all fours.
"A bear" he said, and good big
one. You're not to be afraid. This is
really unmerited good luck"

HOW TO SUCCEED

During the last few years. conditions
In all lines of business, even profess
sional life, have changed so completely
that every man is waking up to the
fact that in order to win success he
must specialize and learn to do some
one thing and do II well.
So it is with any article that is sold
to the people. 1t must have genuine
merit or no amount Of advertising will
maintain the demand for the article.
For many years we have watched with
much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmers Swamp
Root, the great Kidney, Liver and Blad-
der Remedy. From the very beginning
the proprietors had SO much confidence
in 1t that they invited every one to test
II, free of cost, before purchasing.
II is a physicians prescription.
They have on file thousands of letters
received from former sufferers who are
now enjoying good health as a result of
its use.
However, IL you wish first to try a
sample bottle, address DIR. Kilmer & Co.,
Binghamton, n. Y, and mention this
paper. They will gladly forward you a
sample bottle by mail, absolutely free.
