to a fat little girl who sat on coil OF
rope listening intently.
so when she got to a fine young
lady me and Jim thought she was the
captains gal. And so when I heard a
fellow talking to her I sort Of listened
to get the drift Of his remarks. I heard
him say as they were leaning over the
rail:
What wonderful, mysterious power!
What sadness! How slxylike is the
seal!
There was more Of the same sort,
but that was enough for me. calls
up Jim and takes him aft and says:
Jim, listen. This here Teller was
talkin' to our gal and here's what he
said: How massive How wonderful
What mysterious power! What sad

He must he a horse theft said
jim, just as quick as l finished. Jim
was a quick Teller to get a persons
character.
Jim says l. he's worse than any
land lubber you ever heard Of! Say!
says I, you've heard of land sharks,
haven't you?' jim mods his head.
A Land Shark.
well, this Teller is land shark,
I says.
Jim mods, which is his way of talk
ing part in a conversation.
well says I, what are we going
to do with him.?
Jim thinks a while and then I sug-
gests: Throw him overboard?"
Jim mods and that ends the debate.
Hardly had we said them words
when there was a splash and there we
seen the Teller floating in the water
Jim and I was overheard after him in
flash and brought him out.
when we landed him I asked him
What's the drift OF this here conduct?'
"The Teller said the gal had thrown
him over
1.-THE gal throwed you over?' says.
Ives, she thought she liked me, but
she changed her mind says the Teller.

did she marry him and live happy ever
after?" asked the bos'n's little audi

in the water ag'in."
What did you do that for? What
did you pull him out for IL you didn't

Why, all we wanted was to find out
how he come to be in there. Soon as
we found out we put him back" said
the bosn cheerfully.

Warren s Sound Sleep.

But he did not come, and she lay
there nursing both her grievance and
her unhappiness. At length her
thoughts grew confused and she dozed
"A troubled, unrestful self conscious
ness.
In the last hour it had grown much
colder, a sudden change of temperature
that often comes toward morning The
curtains which had hung so Imply
were now beloved out by a sharp
north wind And Helen in her half
doze lay there shivering under the one
thin counterpart.
At length a sound of splutterlng
steam aroused her. 1t was morning;
Maggie was turning on the dining
room radiator. Fearing she would sur
mise some quarrel if she saw her there.
Helen rose hastily, gathered up the
pillow and Counterpart and hurried
back into the bedroom
Warren was asleep. 1t was only 8
and they never got up before Z,
Helen aching all over and nearly sick
from the almost sleepless night on the
hard couch longed to creep into bed
and rest.
But that would be a weakening;
when Warren awoke he would think
she had come back during the night.
AS she stood there shivering unde-

opened his eyes.
Hello. you up? What time is it?"
He drew his watch from under the
pillow and squinted at it sleepily.
"Why It's only 6. What's the matter?
What're you getting up now for"
I'm not getting up, dear as Helen
crept into bed. Il was just going to
see what time it was
My, you're cold! Why on earth
don't you wear some sensible flannel
night gowns instead of those thin
things, nothing but a bit of lace for
sleeves. Never saw a woman vet that
dressed with any sense"
Then he turned over heavily. Nov
don't be jumping up again. I want to
sleep"
So he did not even know that she
had spent all those hours on the front
room couch! He had slept through
the night and had not even missed
her!

might have alarmed her. At last Beat

"Oh, my Cod" she said.
And the words were more a groan

sky and how splendid DR.. Haynes was
in trying to keep me quiet. And then
some one told me-or l seem to re-
member that some one did-that my
babies We're still in the house. Were
they?"
Really, my dear" urged Helen, q
don't think You ought to try to remem-
Der all about that horrible night. What
good will it do you to keep such things
fresh in your mind? I,.myse1f want to
forget them as soon as l can
But you would want to know who
the man was who saved your children"
Beatrice reminded her. You would
want to know to whom you owed the
biggest debt that any woman can owe,
wouldn't you"
1T Was Paul Maynard"
But the doctor said that you were
not to be told about it at ALL" objected
Helene. Secretly she was longing to
witness the sensation which she felt
the knowledge Of the truth would
cause, but she feared that he revela-
ton would come as a shock to her
friend.
"The doctor doesn't know that l re-
member anything about the fire." de-
clared Beatrice. But what | do know
certainly hasn't hurt me. Please, please
dear, tell me who the man was! You
promised to answer my question. Think
of how you would feel if he had saved
your children. Nothing on earth would
be too much to dc. for him. And / will
worry about it more if you don't tell me
than if you do. Was it your brother?"
No" answered Helen. at wasn't
Keith, poor chap! He tried to get into
the bungalow hut the fire was so fierce
that it drove him back and he was
burned about the hands and arms. He
is still laid up. That's why he hasn't

The widow hesitated a moment

voice.

She waited a few moments. then

took her pillow and the counterpane
which covered the bed in the DAYTIME
and went into the front room.
1t was a narrow antique sofa. attrac-
tive as a piece of furniture. but most
uncomfortable to lie on. But if she
could not sleep here, at least she could
breathe. She had opened all the front
windows and those in the library adj
joining, but still the heavy, damp air
did not stir the curtains. Yet Warren
had expected her to sleep in that stuffy
room on night like this!
No Capitulation.
But surely he would not let her lie
out here all night on this hard, mar
row couch. He would soon realize how
unreasonable he had been and would
want the window open. for even he
could not sleep in there long without
air
From outside came the mingled night
sounds of the city, the occasional rum
BILE of distant elevated, the hoarse
squawk of an automobile, or the drag
ging hoofs of a weary cab horse.
But Helen was straining for the
sound of the opening door and for
Warren's slippered step coming after
her Already her back aChed with the
hardness of the narrow sofa, her head
ached and her throat ached, too with
forced back sobs. Oh, why did Warren
let her lie out here?
Then came the thought that perhaps
he had already opened the window, and
was waiting for her to come back and
find 1t open. Softly she stole to the
bed room door and softly turned the
knob. But the window was still closed.
The room was suffocating, and Warren
under the many covers was snoring
heavily.
He would be really sick if he slept
in that room all night, For the mo-
ment Helen forgot herself and thought
only of Warren. The helplessness of
4 man asleep always arouses the moth
erinstincJ of the woman who loves
him. And now when Helen quietly
opened the window a few inches, her
only thought was of him.
Again she went back to the front
room couch. For now. although the
bedroom window was open, this time it
was only for his sake and with a curl
Gus feminine illogicalness she would
not let it benefit her
There are times when all women lose
their sense of proportion, and this was
one Of the times when Helen lost hers.
Perhaps it was partly because she had
been tired and unstrung all day, and
this incident of the closed windows
had only helped to unnerve her, for
now with an unreasonable perverse-
ness she determined to stay there until
Warren came after her
