was glad of that. For another moment
more, at least, he need not read the
look in them. For now, at last, he
was sure she understood. He himself
fixed his eyes upon the fire and
waited.

1t was still open at the page she had
been reading when she had dropped
1t. With his first glance at what was
written there he saw how she had
come, so suddenly to understand.
September 1Sth.-Field-ice came
into the bay last night, just as it has
come at about this season in the two
preceding years-a dense fog and a
whole gale blowing from the east. To
me its coming is a relief It is, in a
way, the official beginning of winter.
The tantalizing hope of rescue is
now put away on the shelf to wait for
another summer. After all, to men In
our condition temporary hopeless
ness Is much more comfortable than
hope itself. The long winter night
gives an opportunity to revive our be-
lief that with another season of open
water, rescue will come.

CHAPTER XII.
Cayley's Promise.

For this small mercy Cayley thanked
God. The girl did not understand.
She was rubbing those sleepy eyes Of
hers and putting back, into place,
stray locks of hair that were in the
way. "The foe must have gone to
pieces" she said, land they've drifted
off in the fog without knowing it. |

be back; very likely not for hours
He did not risk trying to answer
her All his will power was directed
to keeping the real significance of the
yachts disappearance from showing
In his face.
She had turned to him quite casual
ly for an answer, but not getting it.,
remained looking intently into his
eyes Mr. Cayley," she asked pres
emily, were you telling me last night
what you really thought was true, or
were you just encouraging me-
mean about those men who attacked
the yacht? Are you afraid, after all,
that our people are not in possession
of the Aurora, wherever she isl"

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,
really don't think you need worry
about them"
She drew a long deep breath, flung
out her arms wide, and then stretched
them skyward What a day it is.
Was there ever such day down there
In that warm green world that people
live in?-Oh, don't wonder that you
love it. I wish | could fly as you do.

round in half circle. landward.
Mustn't we go hunting for a walrus
or shark or something?"
Cayley had to turn away from her
as she said that, The remorseless
irony of the situation was getting be-

Seeing that he meant it, she did
as he asked A single half page Of
what was written upon those closely
ruled pages was enough to absorb her
again completely. The power 1t had
over her seemed to grow rather than
to lessen. When Cayley came up with
the big bird which was to serve for
their breakfast, impaled upon q sharp
stick ready to be roasted over the
fire, she no more than looked I'D at

her reading. He crouched down near
by her, built little framework of
sticks above the fire and began his
cooking.
1t was. perhaps, ten minutes after
hat when he saw the book drop sud
denly from her hands. When he
glanced up at her, she was looking
seaward-out over those miles OF
plunging, heaving ice. And, under his
eyes, her face turned white as marble.
Her bloodless lips were parted. They
did not move at all and they looked as

Lieutenant r. G. Ellyson had at

He started his engine just fraction Of

Provided that all moneys paid by an
employer to his employees or their Legal
representatives, by reason of the enact
mcnt of any of the laws herein author
lied, shall be held to be proper charge
in the cost Of operating the business OF

of the Public Service Commission, be-
cause they would have the authority Of
the constitution
Ex-Judge John T. McDonough, who
drafted the compensation bill which was
defeated by the Legislature, says no state
constitution in the. country contains any
such provision.
1T might be well enough for employers
and their representatives to ask for that
kind of provision I'm compensation Jaws

McDonough. but isn't IL going a long
way for them to ask to have it made

as n a majority OF the last Legislature

they approved that amendment. and /
hope the next one will refuse to pass 1t.
