the roar of the sea had deadened,
were now painfully distinct. A few
couples were still promenading the
deck, and stewards were dragging
trunks through the corridors, getting
ready for the early morning landing

hear Helen tossing about him.
Dear, l can't sleep. | think I'll get
up and go on deck
You'll stay right where you are!
Think I'm going to be kept awake by

Helen tried to lie still, but she could
not sleep. How much longer must she
lie there?
Then came the sounds of sailors
washing the decks. Surely if Warren
could sleep through all that noise she
would not waken him. 1t was half
past three.
She dressed swiftly and hurried up
on deck. Several passengers, who
had evidently not gone to bed at all
were strolling about. The air was
close and sultry.
THE HARBOR.
The harbor was dotted with an.
chored ships, shadowy and ghostlike
in the gray dawn. 1t was all SO still
and motionless. The land was quite
plain now, but it looked black and
barren. 1t was Helen's first glimpse
of France. and this gray line of rocky
cliffs was very different from the
fields and villas she had pictured.

followed Warren down to the dining
saloon.
Although it was not vt five. the
, regular breakfast had been prepared
for the passengers leaving for Cher
bourg on the tender.
Helen ordered only fruit, coffee anC
toast, for the sleepless night had left
her with a dull headache and no ap

breakfast of kippered herring ant
parsley omelet.
