lovable But beyond this. what sort
Of man was he? Agatha could not
tell. She had seen many men of mary
types. and perhaps she recognized
James as belonging to a type; but
If so. it was the type that stands
for the best of New England stock.
In the centuries back it may have
brought forth fanatics and extrem-
lists; at times it may have built up
pride: but at the core it was sound
and manly, and responsive to the
call of the spirit.
Something of all this passed
through Agatha's mind. as she tried
to read Jim's face; then, as he stirred
uneasily and tried to throw off the
light boughs that she had spread over
him. she got up and went to the edge
OF the water TO moisten afresh the
bandage for his forehead Inyoluntar-
lily she shuddered at sight OF the dark
water, though the tapping waves,
pushing up farther and farther with
the incoming tide, were gentle
enough 10 SOOCD9 cnllu.
She hurried back to Jim's couch
and laid the cooling compress across
his forehead. The balsam boughs
about them breathed their fragrance
on the night air, and the pleasant
gloom rested their tired eyes Grad
ually he quieted down again; his rest
lessness ceased. The long twilight
deepcned into darkness, or rather into
that thin luminous blue shade which
is the darkness of starlit summer
nights. The sea washed the beach
with its murmuring caress some
where In the thicket above a night.
bird called.
In a Granny of the rocks Agatha
followed out the sand, still warm be-
meath the surface here where the sun
had lain on It through long summer
days, and made for herself bed and
coverlet and pillow all at once, With
the sand piled around and over her,
she could not really suffer; and she
was mortally tired.
She looked up toward the clear
stars, Vega and the jeweled cross al
most in the zenith, and ruddy Antares
in the body of the shining Scorpion.
They we're watching her. she thought,
tonight in her peace as they had
watched her last night in her strng-
gle, and as they would watch after
all her days and nights were done.
And then she thought no more. Sleep,
blessed gift, descended upon her.

free herself from her sandy coverings.
but she was wide awake almost at
the first words James had spoken.
Faint as the voice had been. she
recognized the natural tones, the
strongest he had uttered since coming
out OF the water
The night had grown cold and dark,
and at first she was a trihe bewilder-
ed. She was also stiff and sore. al
most beyond bearing. She had to
creep along the sand to where Jim
lay The fire had burned wholly out,
and the sand felt damp as she crawled
over 1t. When she came near, she
reached ont her hand and laid it on
Jim's forehead. He was shivering
with cold.

YOU! I'll make the fire and get some
milk; there is still a little left"
AS she tried to make her aching
bones lift her to her feet, she became
aware that the man was fumbling at
his coverings and trying to say some
thing. She bent down to bear his
words, which were incredibly faint.
Il don't want any fire or any milk,
only wanted to know If you were
there" he said diffidently. as II
ashamed of his childishness.
She leaned over him. speaking gen

her firm, cold hands.

and with an almost motherly pity for
his present plight. She would admit

cent, and to South America, nearly 200
per cent
The imports from South America show
a gain for the period Of more than 100
per cent, the figures being in 1902 slO9,-
100000. and in 1912 s239cD0Ooo. From
Europe The imports increased from
s5l4.CoO,O0O in 1902 TO approximately $780,
10000 in 1912: from North America, from
$4,000. 900 in 1902 to about 1871 10000 in
1912: from Asia and Oceania, from $751;
100000 iu 1902 to approximately S2S40oO,eO
in 1912, and those from Africa, from
81 100000 in 1902 to approximately $24,-
O00,O 900 in 1872. Thus the percentage or
gain In the imports from South America
is also greater than that In imports from
any other Of the grand divisions, though
not nearly so great as the percentage Of
gain in the exports to that section Of the
world.
Manufactures form the bulk Of the ex-
port trade with South America. The
value Of manufactures exported 10 South
America in the fiscal year 1912 amounted
to $llJ. $4,000 out Of total Of l32@35,Cc0.
manufactures, thus forming about 90 per
cent of the tota! exports to South America.
OF iron and steel manufactures alone the
value of the exports TO South America
i'm 1912 was more than the value Of all
exports TO South America ten years
earlier.
The growth occurs chiefly I'm the trade
with Argentina Brazil and Uruguay
