thing himself. The heavy work soon
trimmed his splendid muscles into

spit of sand, rock-tipped and foam
tossed where 1t reached the rivers

was chaos of jagged rocks that
fought the mighty tide hurled from

Gerry ran the canoe upon the shore

live was enough. A sharp cry broke
on his astonished ears.
Almost at the end OF the tongue OF
sand stood a girl. Her hair was blow

one OF them she gazed, startled, at
Gerry. He drew back horribly con-
, fused and mumbling apologies that she
could not have understood even IL she
could have heard them. Then she
plunged with clean long dive into the
river. But before she plunged she
laughed. Gerry heard the laugh. With
an answering cry he hurled himself
into the water and swan as he had
never swum before.
The girl had farther to go across the
little bay, but she could beat Gerry

In the squalid Hotel d'Europe Gerry
occupied large room that overlooked
the quay Even IL there had been a
better hotel in town he would not have
moved.
He was not lonely. He wandered |
interested through all the struggling |
city. When he was too lazy to 60 to |
the city he sat In the precarious bal !
cony OF bis room and watched the city
come to him.
Almost a month had passed since he
landed on his Lethean shore, and it
had served him we'll The world
seemed to have time-servers in small
regard. He began to think of his moth
er. He strolled over to the cable sta
ton. The offices were undergoing re-
pairs. The ground floor was unfur-
nished save for a table and one chair.
In the chair sat a chocolate-colore
employee with a long bamboo on the
door beside him. Gerry's curiosity was
aroused. He went In and wrote his
message to his mother-just a few
words telling her he was all right. The
chocolate gentleman folded the mes
sage, slipped it into the split end OF
the bamboo and stuck it up through
hole In the ceiling to the floor above.
Gerry smiled and then laughed at the
gravity with which his smile was re-
ceived. The man looked at him in
establishment. These English were all
mad and discourteous. What was
there to laugh at In man at work?
Gerry went out and rambled over
the city. Night came on. Hes was
restless He wished he had not sent
the message. 1t was forming itself
into link. He dined badly at a res
taurant and then wandered balk to the
quay. Arriving steamers were posted
ON a blackboard under a street lamp.
The mail from New York was due to-
morrow. The consul's papers would
be full Of the latest New York society
scandal-his scandal. He went to his
room and sat on the balcony watching
the varied craft preparing to drift out

went down to the quay.
A long, raking craft was taking on
its meager provisions Gerry engaged

boat was bound for Penedo to take on
cotton. Gerry decided to go to Penedo.
Two Of the crew went back with him

closed. Gerry was the only guest and
! he had his key. He had paid his
weekly bill that day, SO there was no
need to wake up anyone. In half an
hour he and his belongings were
slowed on the deck of the Josephine
and she was drifting slowly down to
the bar.
-Four days later they were of the
mouth of the San Francisco. They
doubled in and tackled their way VI
to Penedo. There was no life in Pen
edo. 1t was desolate and lonely com
pared with the Hotel d'Europe and the

went with it.

Gerry Lansing was sitting alone In
the shade of bush. his knees gath
cred in his arms and his head bowed
down. Great quivering signs that

strong body. In one terrific swirl
life had wrenched him from the moor

the moment when he had plunged
from the sandspit and the moment

cotton robe belted at the waist, came
