boy to handle the boat-bringing him up
to his own profession, Lindsay thought,
and she did not wonder.
The boy was at the wheel. Lindsay

She sat breathing in the salt air. glory

it fed out Of the harbor into the ocean.
Past Seagull rock they flew. where the
birds were fluttering with low, appre-

the rocky isle and where the Twin lights
reared their white towers. The sea grew
rough. Thick green waves plunged at
the boat in constant succession The
whole sea took on a strange, appalling
color. reflected from the approaching
storm clouds. Suddenly great gust Of
wind rushed past, covering Lindsays
eyes with loosened hair. She was tuck

saw that the skipper had taken the wheel
himself, and that the boy was putting on
a long raincoat Presently he came over
to Lindsay. carrying another raincoat.
Uncle Mat says you're to put this on

Lindsay looked at the coat. But

From the wheel came a sternly COM

There, now; guess you'll mind" the
boy said. He smiled into Lindsay's

was rocking violently on the mad

boy lead her forward. Suddenly ter

The boy saved himself from falling by

crouched against the engine box, brac-

The storm had broken 1t ragged be-

Sheets of rain went over the boat.
There was an awful tumult of noises.

Lindsay Worth stood on the pier, wait

she had felt that the sea was the only
thing that could give her strength Tor
the coming twelvemonth. The doctor had
told her SO. too. But now she had come
to the last day of her stay and her cheeks
were still pale.
Her heart was heavy at the thought

underneath her regret at leaving the
sea was another which she dare not

appeared and beckoned unexpectedly.

stood with her gaze fixed upon the near
