was in the human kaleidoscope, there
was a hot breath from the deserts of
Arabia already bearing down upon the
ship, and it was restful to have so little
to do.
Hearing shouts and laughter for'ard,
he turned from the rail and walked
to where he could look down into the
activities of the swimming pool sunk
in the deck below. Carolina Farley
saw the doctor and hailed him. With q
little quickening of his heart he went
and stood beside her.
She was the mother Of Naeml Far

white swimming suit, but she had a
supple young figure herself and barley

Nelson was not an ordinary observer.
He was born for his work and the
human heart wa an open book to him.
Further he was more than usually

her appealingly feminine charm. He

believed she had not always been SO
affluent. He saw marks of sufferings
she might long since have forgotten
herself. He saw also what was there
for all to see-her proud alteration of
her lovely daughter.
"They look wonderful together, don't
they, doctor?"
They do indeed" he agreed sin
cerely. Naemi Farley and Donald
Werner were sitting at the edge Of the
pool summing themselves. "It's a Joy
to see anything so a~greeably beautiful
and so sublimely happy. And how very
lucky that she has chosen such a first
rate young man. It must be a great
satisfaction to have her future so hap

with emotion: 1T is. Please God it will
remain So" Her voice shook ever so
little.
He noticed the splendor of the brace
let on her ARM. He knew a lot about
emeralds and these were unique. Seven
oval cabochon stones of finest color set
in carved platinum and mounted with
baguette diamonds. She looked about
the deserted deck. "I've never Travelled

Nelson laughed, his teeth showing very

is nothing. But don't you worry. The

the promenade deck and Mrs. Farley
paused at the entrance of the lobby
before stepping inside: Here I am"
she said. "See you later, then" He
saluted and continued his walk aft.
He looked in at the bar as he passed
The two new passengers were seated
on high stools in creased white ducks
while the perspiring barman attended
to their needs. Both men were un-
pleasant specimens, coarse, heavy, and
red with overeating and too much
drinking.
The Farleys, Donald Werner, and his
mother, Lady Werner, were among the
nine passengers at the captains table
Lady Werner, sitting very upright,
looked very majestic in spite of the
heat and her informal gray chiffon
gown. Caroline Farley was in immacu-

blazing on her wrist and a big single
emerald like a tongue of green fire
