"We're creatures of beauty, Of great
and wondrous beauty" said Mr.. Pea
cock, as he spread his long blue-feath-
cred tail out wide.
His neck was blue as were the feath-
ers on his head. His suit was Of gray
ish green with blue trimmings. But
there were many other colors which
seemed to shine from him In the sun
light.
Sometimes I've held my tall out
wide for a long, long time" continued
MI. Peacock, "and so has Mrs. Pea
cock, and the people have stared as
If they could never see enough Of our
glory and beauty.
"They have gathered around and
they have said,

"Yes, those are the things they say
10 peacocks and about ~peacocks.
We're like beautiful pictures, only we
are nicer than beautiful pictures for
we're real, real and live and we will
walk around here and give them pleas

"Ah, If they gave prizes for beauty,
how everyone would be rushing to us
to hand us the prizes. How lonely
then would poor creatures like the
wart hog and the tapir and the gnu be

For no one would run to them with
prizes for beauty, no n indeed"
"No one, indeed" said Mrs. Peacock.
ooh, WE'LL" continued Mr.. Peacock,
"they may do very we'll for their family
name-nothing Is expected Of them in
the way of beauty, but we must al
ways be beautiful and glorious for we
have always been famous for It,"
"We will always be beautiful and
glorious" said Mrs. Peacock.
Feathers are all that count, feet
mean nothing, except mere things to
walk upon, or walk WITH" said Mr..
Peacock, for his feet and Mrs. Pea
cocks feet were very ugly, as we all
know.
All peacocks have hideous feet.
Feathers are all that count" said
Mrs. Peacock. Feet are useful things
we all must have-except snakes and
creatures which crawl. But let US not
talk of feet. Let us talk Of feathers"
So Mr.. and Mrs. Peacock walked
around admiring their own great
beauty.
A short time after this talk, Mrs.
Peacock said to Mr.. Peacock.

A New Plan Of Escape.

Nothing occurred during the after
noo to disturb the routine work
aboard or to me any uneasiness.
Sunset brought clouds, and by the time
Ii was really dark the entire sky was
overcast, but the sea remained COM
paratively calm and the wind steady.
II was a pleasant night In spite Of
the darkness, the air soft and refresh
ing. The locker was filed with flags,
representing almost every nation on
earth. I dragged these out and spread
them on the deck abaft the cabin, thus
forming a very comfortable bed, and
at last induced the girl to lie down,
wrapping her In a blanket. Finally
found q seat beside her on a coil of
rope, and we fell into conversation.
This was the first opportunity we
had enjoyed to actually talk with each
other alone.
Dorothy" I said humbly, 'you were
frightened last night. I cannot hold
you to what you said to me then"
"You mean you do not wish tot But
I was not frightened"
"And you still repeat what you said

Eyes, I can repeat that love YOU"
"Those r dear. dear words; but I
ought not to listen to them. or believe.
I I'm not free to ask Q pledge Of you. or
to beg you to trust me in marriage"
'Is not that rather for me to de-

a confession now. You remember the
night I met you on deck. when you
were a prisoner, and told you that you

that on the lawn over yonder three
times a day there are classes for
young peacocks.
They strut about and show of
their beauty and they are taught not
to notice their feet but to show off
all their beautiful colors.
"They are shown how to stand IN

I held her closely. gazing down into
