Sho Mai obeted with alacrity. A b
l site stepped upon the derik. She saw
f
the ship was moving down a great river,
and the sun was setting directly upon
the path over which-she had come. The
thousand hues of the sky were'tbflected
in the water, and the level rays glanced
redly from the vessel’s Wake as if she
sailed over a sea of blood. Sho Mai.
was enchanted by the picture arid she
feasted her eyes upon it sb she passed
aft to where the captain stood. He was-
a tall, squarely-built mari with a face in
Which a stormy sort of boldness was the
leading characteristic.
-
“Well,"young man,” said he, “you are
aboard my ship, as you perceive. Now
the question is how long shall you re--
main aboard her.”
“I beg of you do not set me on shore,”'
said Sho Mai, earnestly. “I was wish--
ing with all my heart that you would-
take me with you when your men
brought me on board. I want to ger
vtath. »you ,to the- end of your voyager
■=wb0r‘t'ver ;it" ■■m-.-.y 'lAlLwork ...
hard to pay for my passage,”
A look of wonder overspread the?
captain’s face and then hé burst into a»
loud laugh.
“Wall, of all things that .are extraor
dinary!” he exclaimed. “I thought to'
see you weeping and begging me to take
you back to- your loving parents, and-
instead of that you are as satisfied
as if in your father’s house; and as
cool, too—” and he fell ■ to laughing"
again. Then he turned -to a man by
his side Who seemed to be an officer.
“What do you say? Shall- we take the’
boy with us?”
. “Why not?” replied the officer. . “Hs
is a plucky fellow, arid he can do nd'
harm here. I don’t begrudge him' hi$
rice, so let’sk eep him aboard the junk
instead .of sending hirii to feed the'
fishes?*
The thought that such a fearful idea
had been in their minds sëh-t Sho Mai’s-
heart into her mouth, but since she had
wdri the first point by courage she was
quick to, see that weakness would be'
fatal,
“Thè fish Will, do very Well without'
me, no doubt,” she said, though her
voice almost stock in her throat; “and-
if they don’t; Why,.' let them starve,,
then, or feed ori oowàrds.”
The' two men exchanged a' glance of
wonder a.rid admiration, and in it Shd
Mai read the guarantee of her safety.
“Let the cook seë that the young fel--
low hat his stìpper,” said the captain,
“for upon the honor. Of mÿ father he
deserves it.”
From that day on Sho Mai was,treated-
with kindness by all on board. The".
réadihesS of her Wit. appeared to be
source of endless delight to the bluff
captain,, who spent many houis talking
with her, and would laugh immoderate^
ly At her quaint, comments upon what
she saw.. She was not slow to perceive’
her advantage, and she studied her
words that they might fit the humor of
the-man. in whose hands- she saw that"
Ker fate now rested.
No work wds. required of her, and shd
spent all her time in listening, to and'
judiciously applauding the captain’d
wondrous stories of the sea, and iri’
studying the river banks ■ as the junk
pursued her way,, In particular, her
reckless disregard ' of the future de-’
lighted, the skipper, who predicted for
hëf a glorious future when she should
grow up arid command a vessel of her
own. In response to his questions she’
told a preposterous story of her past life,1
and he seemed all the more pleased;
with it because he evidently recognized-
it for a clever and interesting falsehood.'
She Wondered milch concerning ths
nature of that cargo which the captain'
had so much feared .that she had seen-'
When the great box had fallen Upon ths
pier, but no word in explanation of that’ '
■odcufrerice could, she win from any one
by such questioning as she däred to vent-
urë iipori. ’ ,. , ;

One dày thé fivër widened before her
eyes. The banks receded till they
wholly pasted frotti sight, and Sho Mat
knew that she was at last upon the
bosoih of the ocean. They sailed north
ward before favorable winds, and .under
skies olòùdlfess bÿ day and night! Thus’
for several days, änd then caule an aft*

pressed heavily upon the sea; The air
grew-heavy, fend iri it .there appeared to.
be à Strange pulsation which was riot
urilike the, roll of the glassy, billows un
der, thé Ship. In the West the sun
dropped behind â belt of copper bordered
ivith lead, which rose with a slow and
terrible precision,, darkening the sky
more and more. The captain and ail
the sailors,, cast anxious looks at the
broad belt of. cloud iri the west, and when,
the sun sank into it they lowered all the
sails but a. very smali portion scarcely
larger than d.-shawl-.
. “A great gale will sonn break upon
Us,” said the eaptfeiri; ‘Tri all my life
upon,, the séa I have never Seen a more
threatening sky.” , -,

. The cloud rose higher, fend Sho Mai
watched it with curiosity, which had
much fear in it; Still, she had never
s^en a storm and. did not know what
yzaves can be When they raise thefe

,. Suddenly upon the drill sifefaoö of the
cloud appeared a white fleck as if a
^ight vail,, twisted and.dràWn öüt, weee
flung diagonally aëross it. As Sho Mai
gazed at this " apparition it began to
move rapidly toward the zénith. The
great cloud sprang up higher, tinder
