Faith's brother, and Dan'l Tobey, who loves Faith, are among the crew. Noll's strength is failing from age and drink. Seek ing to discredit Noll in Faith's eyes, Dan'l causes a quarrel be tweel Noll and Mauser, one of the crew, during which Noll kicks out Mauger's eye. Faith tells Noll it was a cowardly thing to do, but prevents his apologizing to Mau ger, saying it would humble Noll before the men. From that time on, Noll lives in constant fear ol' Mauger's vengeance. One day, af ter Noll had been harsh with Faith, Dan'l tells her of his love, but she . repulses his advances. Noll's slackness has its reaction upon the crew and they no longer fear him. The Sully Sims puts in to a lonely island for supplies. Faith strolls inland. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XT. The path she was following was a well beaten trail. People must use it. They might come this way at any time. She wished wistfully, that she might be sure' no one would come; and so wishing, she pressed on, each new pool anions the rock3 wooing her afresh and urging her to Its cool embrace. She heard, in the wood ahead of her, an increasing clamor of fall ing water, and guessed there might be a cascade there of larger pro portions than she had yet sest. The path left the stream for a little, winding to round a tangle of thicker underbrush, and she hur ried around this tangle, her eyes ""knngry to see the tumbling water shV could hear. Hurrying thus she came out sud denly upon the lip of the pool. It was broad and dark and deep; its upper end walled by a sheet of plunging water that fell in a mir rorlike veil and churned the pool to misty foam. Her eyes drank eagnrly; they swung around the banks. And then she caught her breath and shrank back a little and pressed her hand to her throat.

Jackson St. her. his back half turned as he poised to dive, there stood a man a white man, for all the skin of his whole body was .golden brown from long exposure to the open air. He poised there like some winged god. Faith had a strange feeling that she had blundered -into a se cret temple of the woods; that this was the temple's deity. She smiled faintly at her own fancy. God has made nothing more beautiful than the human body, whether it be man's or woman's. Faith thought, in the instant that she watched, that this bronzed man of the woods was the most beautiful thing she had ever Been. She had no sense of shame in watching him; she had only joy in the sheer beauty of him, golden grown against the green. And when, even as she first saw him, he leaped and swung, smooth and straight, high through the air and turned his arms like arrows to pierce the bosom of the pool, she gasped a little, as one gasps on coming suddenly out upon a mountain-top with the world outspread below. - Then he was gone, with scarce a sound. She saw for an instant the golden flash of him in the pool's depths. His brown head broke the water, far across the way. He shook back his hair and passed his hands across his face to clear his eyes. His eyes opened and he saw her standing there. There were seconds on end that they remained thus, each held by the other's gaze. Faith could noi, for her life, have stirred. The spell of the place was upon her. The man, for all his astonish ment, was the first to "find his tongue. He called softly across the water: "Good morning, woman!" His voice was so gentle, and at the same time so ,cay, that Faith was not alarmecT. She smiled. "It's afternoon," she said. "Good afternoon man ! " When Faith answered him the man's face broke into smiles. "If you're so familiar with the habits of the sun, you must be a real woman and not a dream at all," he told he laughingly. "I'm (If Present Stock Lasts) to you! Pay the modern omV77 AMI Wl awake, am I not?' "I should think you would be, said Faith. "That water must be cold enough to watte anyone. He shook his head. "No. indeed. Just pleasantly cool. Dip your Hand in it." Something led her to obey him She bent by the pool's sandy brink and dabbled her fingers, while the man, a hundred feet away at the very foot of the water fall, held bis place with the effort less ease of an accustomed swim mer, and watched her. "Wasn't right?" h,e challenged. She nodded. "It's delicious!" "Your beins here means that a ship ia in. of course," he said qukkly. "Yes." "What ship?" "The Sally Sims whaler." "The Sally! 1 know the Sally." the man cried. "Is Noll Wing still captain?" "Of course." " ' ; Hia eyes were thoughtful. "I'm in luck, woman," he sid. "Listen. Will you do a thing for me?' "What do you want me to do?" "I've a sort of a home, up on the bill above us here; an observa tory. I've been waiting four months for a ship to come along, keeping a lookout from the top there. Missed the Sally somehow. Must have come in sight after I came down." "We made the Island a little be fore noon," she said. "Ah. I was in my boudoir then. I want to ship on the Sally. Does she need men?" "I think so," she said. "They lost two, three days ago.' "What was it?" he asked quick ly. "Fighting whale?" She shook her head. "Boat got lost and they were short of water. The jug wasn't fresh filled." The man whistled softly. "That doesn't sound like one of Noll Wing's boats," he said. "Noll is a stickler on those things.' Faith bowed her head, tracing a pattern in the sand with her fore finger. She said nothing. "How long before they sail?" the man asked. "They're going to wait for me," she said. His eyes lighted and he chuckled "Good ! Now listen. If you'll be so kind as to turn your back You see, I've been running wild here for the past few months, and my clothes are all up at my place. I'll trot up there and get them, and come back here. Got a few things I don't want to leave." She had We're now shooting this polden Arrow Special straight to Boys!

"Not over and hour." "I'm afraid someone may come along tills path. Will they? Should 1 hide from them. He laughed. "Bless you. this Is my private path ; it's officially taboo to the natives, by special arrangement with the old witch-doctor who runs their affairs. There won't be a soul along. I'll be back in an hour." "I'll wait." she agreed softly. There was a light of mischief in her eyes. Still standing with her face downstream, she heard his bare feet pad the earth of the path for a moment before the sound was lost in the laughing of the waterfall. A moment later came his shout: "I'm gone!" She Bat down quickly on the sand, smiling to herself, sure of what she wished to do. She slipped off her shoes and stockings with quick fingers. She gathered her skirts high, and stepped with cue foot and then another into the pleasant waters of the pool. They rippled around her ankles; she went deeper. The waters played above her knees, while she bal anced precariously In the swirling current and gathered her skirts higher. (To Be Continued Tomorrow) Copyright. 1930. by Ben Ames Williams.
