an individual named Brill was acting
Ike a crazy man. and Brill had to adj
nit 1t. This totally unaccustomed tug
ging OF the heart must be a species Of
insanity In the case of one to whom
thoroughly transparent %fiirtations had
been the only episodes of sentiment In
his careless life.
He turned stoutly away from the
door and found his way at last. al

main deck. usually the recreation
ground Of third class passengers. but
now practically deserted. Here he
could pace up and down in closer com
than anywhere else on shipboard: and
he threaded his way through the I'll
tanic groupings Of windlasses, chains
and the varied implements Of a steam
er's bow, up to the very prov of the
Olympiad. The sharp hiss Of the d.
vided waters was like music to his
vexed spirit, and the salt spray that
sometimes flew up on the strength OF
the wind bathed his face with sooth-
ing touch.
So he walked till the glow Of sunset
had faded from the face of the sea,
and out to the east the mysterious
darkening Of night blotted out the
heaving waters. Far down on the
southern horizon began to grow out OF
the blue the pale points Of an evening
star. Was it Venus or Mars he
dered %idly-love or battle? He smiled
as he thought of the verses OF his
childhood:
