The cook, who walked majestically
and had the air of one who has cooked
but for kings, was introduced as An
tonic Pereira.
"a very skilled user of the knife"
Clements said. HE would be in a
palace kitchen now but for it. He has
all the villainy of the world at his
fingertips."

Bettington bowed to them amiably.

yet each wholly villainous. The cook
was the most picturesque; Hammer the
one he most disliked. Grammar
looked like wolf without disguise.
The meeting resolved itself into a
kind of committee meeting in which
accounts of the past weeks business
was demanded by the chairman. There
was no wild, incendiary talk.

1t is that settled smile which pre-
judlces one. His features are good.
Yes, 1t must be that smile"
Bettington wondered what the real
Clements had been like. The voice
had been cultivated to avert suspicion
that the face gave rise to. And now
the face was gone and one had been
created to match the voice.

He realized suddenly that he was
nervous. Suppose the role he had
set out to play was one beyond his
ability or courage. He thought of

lesser men they controlled. Somehow
he felt that Clements was only money

CHAPTER VII
An Ocean Tragedy

Bettington was glad when he en-
tered the main saloon next morning
for breakfast that Railway was not
there. He rather dreaded that false,
pre-prandial heartiness and he was not
anxious to have to be amiable toward
a man whose qualities he despised.
Railway isn't up yet" 1t was Glenn
ents' voice. He had not seen the
steward steal to his side. HE doesn't
answer when knock"
Bettington put down his cup. He
could swear trouble brooded in the
others eyes.
"Think it's anything serious?"
"You know you were frightened Of
his condition last night, doctor.
think you'd better find out If any
things wrong"
Railways door was locked, but
Clements had master key. Betting
ton closed the door behind him. He
had seen enough in one brief glance.
Elgar Railway was dead. 1t was
plain, even to Bettington. that he had
been dead many hours. The two men
looked at one another and said moth
ing. To Bettington the thing seemed
the hand of Providence. 1t meant that
the Albatross must put about and run
for New York. 1t meant that the
two women would never know the
peril in which they had been placed.
Evelyn was now doubly safe. Safe
from the violence and cruelties of the
dead man, as well as from the lusts
of Clements crime crew.
"This means ruin" Clements said
slowly.
Bettington shrugged his shoulders.
"What will be, will be-"
"a FOOLS creedr' cried Clements.
"Was that what you felt in San
Quentin? You know it wasn't or you
would never have killed a guard in
order to escape. The only death
which will ever beat me will be my
own"
Mrs. Railway must know" Betting
ton reminded him.
Clements nodded. "All right. 1t
comes better from YOU"
Bettington found her on deck.
"Have you seen Mr.. Radway?" she
asked. He thought there was an air
of GOODNESS about her, an aIoofness
that was strange.
Evelyn Railway, although all vestige
of affection for her husband had long
since disappeared, was actuated by
what she felt to be duty to him. She
had realized with a start that her life
on board would have been unutterably
dreary without Doctor Waite. She
was conscious Of quickening of her
pulses when he was with her and
loneliness when he was away. Even
after schooling herself to be cool, in
different and aloof, she could not help
being glad when Howard Bettington
came to her side. Few girls marry
their ideals; she had not. But she
recognized in the ships surgeon, as
one sees an old and almost forgotten
face, the man she had localized before
she set ambition above love.
at is about him want to speak,"
"You mean he is ill?" she cried.
He bowed his head.
"Oh." she cried. you mean he is
dead!"
Without a word she followed him to
the forward stateroom. Clements
Withdrew as he heard her coming.
She glanced in little fearfully.
For few seconds she stood in the
doorway. Then she turned to Betting.

deprived of the luxuries of her class
and country. Everything about her
was beautiful and rare. What morsel
for Metzger!
Bettington was musing on this when
he felt hand on his shoulder. 1t was

tion of Todd His great fiat face was
distorted with rage.

Sam paid no attention to this. He
was still glazing at the retreating
wireless operator. If murder looked
out of human eyes it was focused on
Todd then by the deep-chested sailor.
Bettington was glad he had an ex-
cuse to get away from the angry
brute. 81 must change my clothes for

They had to wait for Railway. Bet
tington hoped that the owner would
not come to dinner.
Mary Unwin was plainly nervous.
Mrs. Railway showed no fear at all.
She was playing bright little dance
by Chaminade when Railway came
in. His face was still highly con-
gested. Clements met him with the
inevitable cocktail.
1t was toward the end of dinner that
Railway made his one remark. 1t
was addressed to Bettington. There
was a hooking politeness in his voice.

Wisdom of Antoninus

For a man can lose neither the past
nor the future; for how can one take
from him that which is not his? So
remember these two points: First
that each thing is of like form from
everlasting and comes round again in
its cycle and that 1t signifies not
whether man shall look upon the
same things for hundred years or
two hundred, or for an infinity of time !;
second, that the longest lived and the

THE STORY

Floyd Unwin and Howard
Bettington take dinner with an
old college chum, Alfred Gibbons,
financial magnate. Unwin pro-
duces a written pledge taken by
the three at college to help each
other in adversely, explaining
that he needs financial assist
ance to educate his son Bob and
and daughter Mary. Gibbons
agrees to make place for the
daughter in his organization.
Mary Unwin is stenographer to
wealthy debauchee, Elgar Rad
way. Calling at Gibbons office,
as arranged, Mary is asked to
betray her employers secrets and
refuses. Railway plans an ocean
voyage to recover from the eff
fects of dissipation. Mary is to
go as secretary. her brother to
accompany her. Bettington,
painting on the Maine coast, is
kidnapped, and taken aboard Rad
ways yacht. His clothes are
found by Gibbs, fugitive from
justice, who dons them and goes
to Bettington's studio, and there
falls to his death. Bettington is
questioned by a man known as
the Boss" He is shown an ac-
count of Gibbs death, the body
being identified as lexington.
The Boss" intends to hold Rad
way for 100000 ransom. Bet
tington is told he will be forced
to assist.

Not Complete Success

A new cruising detail of the San
Francisco police force was put through
some tests in the early part of a
morning not long ago. A pseudo bank
holdup brought the entire district per-
sonnet to the bank in four minutes.
During the following hour the pseudo
fleeing car was stopped in various
parts of the city and tests were pro-
nounced a 100 per cent success. But.
while all this was going on, two rob-
bers in an automobile made three
holdups and escaped.
