 must be understood that our. party on the Belle Helene was
 divided into two, or, rather, in - deed, three camps, each some what sharply defined and each some what ignorant of the others doings in detail. The combinat ton of either two against the other in organized mutiny might very well prove successful, wherefore it was my task to keep all apart by virtue of the authority which had myself usurped. The midship's cabin suit of three rooms was occu- pied by myself and my two bold young mates when the latter were not else where enga ged. We made what might be called the ruling classes, Forward of our cabin and accessible only from the deck was the engine room, where Williams worked, and off this were two hunks, well ventilated and very comfortable, occupied by Williams and Peterson Forward of this, and also accessible only from the deck, lay the dining saloon, with it's fixed table, its cupboards, dish racks and wine room In her bows and below the saloon was the cooks gallery, a dumb waiter run ming between. and the sleeping quar- ters of John, the cook, and Willy, the deck hand, were 1n the 1orecaStle be- low This left the two capttyes all the after part of the ship pretty much to themselves, and as the after suit of cabins was roomy and fitted with every modern nautical luxury they lacked neither freedom nor comfort, so far as these may obtain on ship board. Obviously I said little to the ships crew, except to Peterson, and my two mates had orders to keep to their own part of the ship, under my eye.
 Thus, like ancient Gaui, divided into three parts, we sailed cn our wholly indefinite voyage, and all T. could do was to live from day to day or hour to hour. I was content, for Helena was there. Indeed, I question if these last three years her image had not been always present in my conscious ness, such are the levers of our unrea- soning blood, such the power of that madness known as love.
 But, thus divided as was our com pany, I had none such excellent op- portunity for often seeing Helena as might at first be supposed She and her amt refused to join us at any R7aRl

NATIONAL PAY up
WEEK FEBRUARY 21-26
A NATIONWIDE MOVEMENT TO
INDUCE PEOPLE TO PAY THEIR
DEBTS DURING THE WEEK OF
FEBRUARY 2f-25 INCLUSIVE,
HAS BEEN iNAueuRATED.

What promises TO become an annual
national event has been inaugurated
e National Pay-Up Week. February
zl-26. inclusive.
Credit Is one Of the great assets OF
our present-day system of business,
out like many another coed thing. 1t
$ sometimes abused and overdone:
and because so many people are caro-
less about paying their accounts,
accounts, there are millions upon
millions Of dollars In outstanding ac-
counts in this country today that
sould be paid without inconveniencing
the debtora. and II all theee millions
OF de1lars were put into circulation
during one week, there would be the
greatest week op prosperity ever
Anown in this country.
While credit is great thing, II at
the same time becomes a tax when
abused. The man who does not pay
his debts pays a renalty tax every
time he buys q dollars worth OF mer.
chandise; but not only must he pay
this tax. hut the man who pays his
debts Is compelled to bear his share
OF this unjust taxa tax collected in
increased price on the commodities OF
life occasioned by the failure OF the
debtor to pay his bills.
1t Is often said that the customers
OF the retail merchants who pay cash
pay iaoTe for their merchandise than
they should, because they have TO pay
for what dsadboat gets without
paying and there - much truth in the
statement. too--the man who pays
more for the commodities OF life than
he should pay because 80 many do not
pay.
