gravely; and then lifting his gaze, he
added as he rose in a bound: Il just
know she did-thats all.
In another instant he was battling
might and main with three willing ruff
fans, who had come suddenly into
view round shoulder of rock; but his
efforts were shortlived, foredoomed to
failure. He was weakened with suffer

cave. You'll be warm and dry enough

And now the water was at his lips;
Barcus could no more speak without

though there was no passable way
down the cliff, still the sight Of his

with it a thrill of hope; now that hope

And as this happened the last blood

by the waves.
Two minutes later the lifeboat wan
afloat, and Mr.. Barcus, already recov.
cred, was laboring with the flywheel
of the motor, stimulated to supreme
exertion by the sight of a party, led by
Judith, racing madly down the beach.
But 1t was not until we'll out from

"Alan!" he shrieked at the top Of

There was a little pause; he was
racking his brains for some more NOV
Ing mode of appeal when the answer
came in another voice-in the voice
of Judith Urine, clear. musical, effer-
vescent with sardonic humor:
BE at peace, little one-bleat no
morel Mr.. Law is with us-and safe
oh, quite, quite safe!"
In dumb CONSERVATION Barcus
sought the countenance of Rose. Her
eyes, meeting his, we're blank with
despair He shook his head helplessly
and let his hands bangle idly between
his knees.
With no way on her, the llfeboat
drifted with a current Of unknown set
and strength.
What can we do2" Rose implored.

we're about three miles off the main
land, somewhere in the neighborhood
OF Katama island, little, rocky, DESC
late bump of earth, inhabited mainly
by fishermen"
The girl wrung her hands. But
how could Judith get there-and with
her men-and ammunition"
Don't ask me. Going on my expe-
rience with the lady, I'd be willing to
bet that she was picked up by the
steamer that ran us down, and pro-
ceeded to make prize of it--or try
to. One things certain-she must

"And there's no hope-!"
"Only of the fog relenting. If we

His accents died away into a discon-
solate silence that was unbroken for
upwards Of an hour.
SO slowly the current bore the life
boat toward the beach and so still
the tide that Barcus never appreciated
they were within touch Of any land
until the bows grounded with slight
jar and a grating sound.
With a cry Of incredulity he leaped
to his feet - Land, by all that's
lucky!"-and STOPPING, lent hand to
the girl, aiding her to rise.
Hardly had Rose had time to COM
prehend what had happened. when
Barcus was over the side and wres-
thing with the bows, dragging the boat
farther upon the shoals.
She was, however, more than one
man could manage; and when her
stem had bitten little more deeply
into the sands, Barcus gave over the
attempt and. lifting Rose down, set
her on dry land. then climbed back into
the vessel, rummaged out her anchor
and cable, and carried them ashore,
planting the former well up towards
the foot of the cliff.
And as he rose from this last labor
he was half blinded by the glare of the
westering sun as it broke through the
fog.
In less than five minutes the miracu-
lous commonplace was an acom-
plished fact; the wind had rolled the
fog back like a scroll and sent it spin
ming far out to sea, while the shore
on which the two had landed was
deluged with sunlight. bright and
beautifully warm.
He showed a thoughtful and consid-
crate countenance to the girl.
You're about all in?"
She nodded confirmation of this,
which was no more than simple truth.
Where are we?" she added.
He made her party to his own per-
plexity.
You're not able to travel" he pur-
sued. DO you mind being left alone
