''I want to know how you got onto

ST swami" Lilua tossed at him in
a quick, almost contemptuous aside.
She went on talking to Karen, lev
ely, her face quiet except for the
fame in her eyes, and her body
quiet except for that easy, uncon-
scious sway that balanced her to the
lift eff the sea.
You have nothing to give him,
Lilua said in that memorable, steady
voice. "You can only think of posi-
tion, and land, and money. Would
you want him if you had first seen
him sick, and helpless, and alone?
You know your eyes would not have
seen him at all. This is my man.
IF he were dead, would make my
self die. Would your"
Suddenly Dick was unable to
speak. He stood weaponless, hum
BILE, and-without any particular re-
course or hope. Diffidently he turned
his eyes to Karen.
Karen Waterson had gone perfect
y white - whittier than sea foam,
whittier than the knit linen of the lit
tie hat she wore Her mouth was
oddly distorted, but her eyes were
blank. She seemed to have lost all
power of motion exactly where she
stood. Then the reel of the little
ship unbalanced her, and by its very
unkindness seemed to return her the
gift of movement. Karen turned,

der she flung Dick one irrational, un-
readable glance; then ran away
from them into the upper night.

One teaspoon of onion juice or

CHAPTER XI

Dick Wayne was left facing Lilua
alone. For moment Lilua's eyes
remained fixed upon the companion
way where Karen had disappeared.
Then her eyes turned to Dick, and
for moment they looked at each
other.
'tLilu', Lilu'," Dick said, "what
have you done to me?"
For one brief moment the sharp,
spear-hke flames in the eyes of Lilua
broke down; she looked at Tonga
Dick pathetically, pitifully, with no
defense behind her eyes, no barriers
at all.
Dicks voice was cool, definite as
q strake. stop it, you hear me?
Forget it-cut it outl"
The girl let the sway of the ship
take her, then. She swayed against
the doorway's stanchion, and stayed
there.
Dick took the ladder in long, re-
1uctant strides. A glance told him
that Karen was in the point of the
bow.
He stood minute by the swaying
mainmast, trying to gather himself,
but without any effect. Then he
walked forward to the rail where
Karen stood. Close to her at the
rail, he drew her close against his
side, easily and naturally; it had
always seemed to him that she be-
longed nowhere else but there.
"Kdren-"
She took herself away from him
sharply-out of the curve of his arm,
out of contact with him in more ways
than enc; and they stood alone, as
individual as the unrelated stars.
Karen" Dick said, ST guess you
are right; / don't know how you
knew, but you knew. In a way, you
foretald this, Karen"
Perhaps" Karen said, cts bet
ter for both of us that this happened
lust as it did"
That stopped him for moment
but he came on again. what
are you saying? In Gods name, up
helrnl Do I mean so little to you"
whatever you may mean to me,
II seems that you have made your
self mean more to this-this Ka-
naka."
Karen, it's grotesque that a ma

girl Is anything but child"
"What does it matter what she is?
II you and L"
perhaps it matters everything
what she is. Perhaps she's what
you made her. I don't know how
old she is. But that's a woman,
Dick. If you've made her your own,
as it seems you have"
Her words died in her throat; but
she had said enough.
For a moment then Tonga Dick
Wayne faltered. The cool chiseled
lines of Karen Waterson seemed in
finitely far away. For a moment
he was able to hope-even to believe
that he could put her out of his
mind, out of his heart. For a little
while this girl had become to him
like a dream of the stars-but
dream that he would have been glad
TO forget.
Partly he could see her as she
literally was-there was no doubt
about that. He could see her as
thin bodied, thin-faced San Francis
co stenographer, sharp-edged in
mind and manner because any girl
needs to be, making her own way.
He could see her in the light of the
reason that she was here-a short
cutting little adventures, willingly
lending herself to the predacious
brain John Colt in the hunt for
