tenant Paget gathered from his ram
bling words that he had lost his ship,
and had returned, the sole survivor,
In one of the ships boats, which he
had rowed for several hundred miles
across the stormy waters Of the North
Atlantic.
"But l brought my specimen home
with me, ladl" he exclaimed, clutching
at his companions arm. "Thlnk Of
that, lad She didn't want to eat.
They don't eat after they're mature,
Donald. That simplifed matters con
siderable. And so brought her, aud

The old mans voice failed him. lie
began mutterlng to himself absently
again. No doubt his terrible expert
ence had unhinged his brain. Lieu
tenant Paget had always known Mas
terman TO be natural eccentric, but
never before had h. talked like this
about the safety If humanity, and
some awful and imminent danger
which only he could avert. The lieu
tenant could see that the old mans
cheeks were sunken; his eyes were
wild, and under his long coat the
faded blue uniform was shrunken and
stained with sea water.
Lieutenant Paget felt well disposed
toward the whole world just then. He
had been summoned home from serv-
ice with the Atlantic fleet to receive
his commission as commander Of the
F55. And Miss Ida Kennedy, the
daughter Of the American consul gen.
eral in London, whom he had met
there the year before had written him
that she was sailing In company with
her aunt by the Beotia for New York.
At such q time, when his profess
slonal and personal interests were be-
ing served So well by fortune, Paget
felt that tate had played n wretched
trick UPON Masterman, whose lifewOrk
had utterly failed OF recognition owing
| TO his defects of temperament. Though
he was sure that the old sea captain
was crazed, he admired him rs II dar'
/ ing seaman and an original genius OF
Il high order.
"Aly dear lieutenant, am extremely
glad to have met you. Nothing could
have been more fortunate" said Mas

Very small neckpieces made to

fur on the hat, and high collar, like
q small mufiler of the same fur, to be

in the mind as to the smartest thing In
