Bat th day' I got back and Nance . wasat at the door to ware to me 1 ; wasat thin kin' about what 1 couldn't ' git. bat what I feared Td lost. Tba snoment wo toached the dock I tamed the ship over to the first mate and i steered a direct coarse to my house. Whea l got there 1 found the door anlocheq.

But aha was aot there, and I made ' , a dash upstairs for her bedroom. The door to that 1 found locked. I knock ad. bat got no answer.' 1 could hear voices burfde talkln' low. but nobody said anything to me.' I hollered oat: f "I want to know It my wife la dead or alive H ."' Tbea a woman's voice, strange to ' ass. said: "fine's very morn aHve, but . hasat beea well for a few days. A She's an right She saw tha ship coma to from her window."

TAH right rm wanted at tba ship. Tn go there and coma back la a coo- - pie a hoars." As I was gota down Uw stslrs I Ward the funniest sound comln' from tba room t aver heard. At flmt It re minded me of a distant f ok bom, so ' far away that a maa would have to strain his ears to hear It Then I thought It wasn't tUe a foghorn nei ther. It was mora like soma one try la to talk with a sore throat. I didn't Uka the Idea leavtn' everything to my mate oa Just gettln' Into port, so I dldnt stop to make sny more In quiries. I Just went on across the point toward the dock. fteaealn a high hit of land, I turned to take a look at tha house I bsd left kind a wonderln', and If I dldnt see a maa comln' out o the front door ITl be Jiggered? . What did it mean? Hare was I kept out o my wife's bed room snd a man la tha house. A hor rible suspicion took possession of me. But with a gasp I got back my confi dence In Nance, snd then I remember ed that the voice In the room with her wss a woman's. Bo I Just went right oa to the ship. I found that she hod been docked without sny accident, but there was a tot of things to do that can only be done by the master of s ship tbct's Just come In from a cruise, and I didn't git away from the ship till the day was about over. Then 1 started bnr-k home, beginnln' sgsln to wonder what wss the mean In' of all the strange things thst had happened. Homepln must a-gone wrong durin' my sls"uee. sad they wss fix In' things op to break It to me. When I walked Into the house 1 heard some one In the kitchen snd. join' there, ssw s young woman In s striped dress cookln' a bird. Nance wasn't the kind to spend money for such dellcseies, and I marveled some mora. "Sea here." I said to the gal. "some pin gone wrong since I been sway. A trouble has come into this bouie, and I want tn know right off what's the matter." By jlng. she burst out s-larflo'. "I reckon you'll And It some trouble." she said, "before you git through with It Such happenln's slways turn s house upside down. It's nev-r the same place It was before. But wast a minute till I put this bird on s tmr and we'll go up t sirs." Purty soon she started. I follerin. Oa tha way I heerd thst hoarse talkln' sound agln. The young woman asked me to open tha door, she boldln' the tray with both hands, and I saw Nance lyin' In bed look In' pale, but ami I In'. ,' and a nine pound lump o flesh beside her. Then I understood tha bull scheme. She bad planned a surprise for me. I ' Jlst took bar and tha little duffer In my anna, and that was tha happiest i moment & my life. HERE AND THERE.
