Take This 70 Bed with You.

Self-denial is a Fundamental
virtue. especially for all who have
their own way 70 make in the
world. happiness for the great
majority OF people depends on the
wholesome restraint Of desires
rather than on their qualification,
because. when unchecked. those
desires are forever stretching out
beyond present reach. 1t seems
strange that, especially in our
country, people shrink from say
ing ~ can't afford it, when
economy means safety and con-
tentment, whereas false pride
brings danger and unhappiness.
Fear Of being thought poor or
stingy has brought misery, and
often crime, into many a house
hold.
The average wages, salaries and
income are higher in this country
than in any other, yet our savings
banks do not make creditable
showing. Fourteen countries
greatly outrank ours in the pro-
portion of savings accounts to
population. In thrift, as indi-
Gated by the savings banks, we
stand at the bottom Of the list of
the principal nations.
OF every hundred OF our citi-
zcns sixty-six have at their death
no estate at all. Only nine leave
as much as $1,000 The average
estate left By the other twenty
five is less than $1,000. Ninety
seven out of every hundred lose
their earning power at the age Of
sixty-iive; aud as most of them
have saved nothing, they become
dependent on relatives or on the
public. II is estimated that there
are one and one fourth millions OF
such destitute persons in this
country, most of whom might have

 But if the man is aboard, why did he not appear on deck to give us wei come? Surely our arrival must have been of interest?''
 "Likely as not he hasn't even heard yet that you are aboard. You see, his cabin is on the starboard side astern, and he would see nothing from them ports. Besides, MT. Hollis, he is lame, and 1t is a bit hard for him to get around on ship without help What do you say, sir? Shall we go down now, an talk it over below?'
 'The sooner the better" I said, with a glance over the port rail. "The fog is thickening out wonder, and we may have rough night. The steamer would ride heavy sea sbetter with some more of that rifle overheard"

CHAPTER TX.
Contraband of War.

The knowledge that the owner was actually on board changed the entire situation. I would have to argue 1t out with him undoubtedly, for quite naturally he would object to any re- turn to an American port. We'll, I might be in for a disagreeable inter- view, but I had made up my mind, and 1t was not to be changed by any blus- ter or offer of high wages.
 "Come on, Masters" I said brusque- ly Lets get this over with"
 The after cabin extended from rail to rail, the door opening directly from the main deck. There were two cabins width of the vessel, and the engineer rapped with his knuckles on the panel of the nearest door. There was no re- Sponse, but second attempt resulted In voice bidding us enter.
 It was a pleasant enough interior, lighted by two ports, but showing no attempt at decoration. A man arose from one of the chairs and faced us, the light from the stern port shining full upon him. He was tall, delicate looking, his features bearing marks of pain, yet certainly not over thirty years of age. He was not at all like what I had expected to see, and I faced him in surprise. He had taken step toward us, limping slightly, but at sight of stranger paused,
 "Whom have you, here, MastersY he asked, his eyes on my face. 'Is there another vessel near us?"
 "No, sir" and the engineer stood, hat in hand, awkwardly shifting his weight. We have picked up some castaways. This man here is Captain Hollis, late of the Atlas line."
 "Indeed - he held out his hand to me, his eyes looking directly into mine, 'I regret your misfortune, sir, but your coming is godsend to us. Your ship was wrecked?"

 I arose to my feet, walked across to the port, and stared cut into the thick ening mist overhanging the water The man did not move or speak, and turned again to find him wIth head buried in his arms on the desk. His attitude of complete despair was full of pathetic appeal.

 T have decided, Masters" I an- swered briefly. ''There is only one thing l can do legally, and that is navigate the Indian Chief to the near est American port, and surrender her to her owners. As licensed captain of steam l have authority to assume command to this extent. but no more." T reckoned you would look at it that way. sir. I'm no sea lawyer, but l sorter figured it out about as you do. But that ain't the situation ex- actly"
 "What isn't?'
 "Why, this owner business, sir. You see, the owner of the Indian Chief, an' every pound O cargo below hatches. is on board here

CHAPTER X.
We Accept Adventure.

I of the mizzenmast. the only person vis- tble was a long-legged cabin boy in- dustriously rubbing away at grease spot on the deck. He was not aware of my presence until 1 spoke, when he gaZed up at nse across his shoulder, with seeming little intelligence in his dull eyes.
 Do you know which of these state rooms the lady was givenT"
 "Oh, yes, sir; over there; I just took her in needle an some thread.'
 All right-what is your name?"
 "Joe-Joe Moon, sir"
 I crossed over and rapped at the stateroom door, which had figure "5'' stenciled on the upper panel.
 "Who Is there?" she asked.
 ''This is Hollis; could you spare me a few momentsa''
 "Certainly; will come out directly" she laughed, q have been doing some emergency mending."
 I picked out chair and sat down. A moment later the door of No. 5 opened, and the girl greeted me pleas antly, crossing the cabin swiftly, and extending her hand, as I arose to my | feet.
 "I feel actually born anew, Mir. Hol lis," she exclaimed. T am almost afraid 1 was losing my nerve In that little boat. Where is this steamer bound?"
 That is what I called upon you 10 discuss. Sit down here, and I will give you the whole story. The captain and both mates are dead; the fellow on deck in charge when We came on board was the chief engineer. The owner of boat and cargo, however, is here; have just been talking with him In the cabin yonder. He is in poor health and crippled in one limb."
 What is his name?'
 "Foolishly forgot to ask, and Mas- | ters-that is the name of the engi- neer-negleeted to mention 1t when he introduced us. However, that makes no difference in the facts. I'll tell you the story, as briefly as I can."
 She listened intently, leaning for ward in her chair, her ringless hands elasped, her eyes on my face. The simple story seemed to thrill her breathing as it did the mystery an6 romance of the sea.
 "And that, Miss Vera" I said at last lis the present situation. It Is for yol to furnish the final solution"
 .'For me! You tell me all this merely to leave the decision with me?''
 "Yes; shall do nothing against your expressed wish.''
 "Why-but what would you do, if you were here alone?"
 "That would be entirely different. I have no family. no near relatives liv- 1 ing: not even any special friends to mourn greatly over my demise. | might willingly risk my life in such | an adventure, and think little of 1t. l know the sea and its perils, and such a game as this is likely to have its attractions.
