He was the son of a Prot

for . even If parenta decide to call you

apt .to be Jim and Harry and Sally to-

now how nickname got Its name? It .
comes from an old English word, "eke,"
meaning to draw out, to add to. Then
an eke heme was sn addition to a per

... Dear Boys and Olrls: - . . ' . . .
A a wa approached Maul darkness
cams on very suddenly, for. In
this tropical region they have no
such lingering sunsets and dusks,
. as we hav in "the States." And by
o'clock, when ws arrived at cur point of
disembarkation Maalaea liay the
darkness was so black you could al
most cut It.
Now came ' seen of buatllnr exclts
ment. Lifeboats were lowered Into the
water, the ladder was lowered, cabin
passengers wera told to descend Into one
of the toets, the steerage passengers,
scuttled down as best they could Into
another boat and all the luggage was
piled Into another boat. Then all the
- boats cast oft and "pulled for the shore,
sailors, nulled for the shore," the braw
ny tackles pulling lustily to the tune of
a sing-song refrain something Ilka the
. one sung by the sailors in the fire drill-
which was described In a previous let
.... ter. Otherwise, all was silence and all
: was darkness, save for the shining port
lights of the vessel behind us. and the
few glimmering lights ot ths landing
- for which we were bound.- There being
only one seat-available for ths four
. ladies In the party, all the men were
, standing, and as Jacky contemplated
heft- dark forms looming up against
the faintly star-lit sky. he whispered:
'Auntie, 1 fel as if we were In the
' - same boat with Georga ' Washington
crossing the Delaware.' ' .
- "FHrsa vnu hu-t JaVTI1-ldHr,mly-
Bvans, "wa must hava been thinking of

The lights became more distinct, ana
presently we reached the landing, a rude
arrair of a few ooaraa on a mno pmu.
Back of It were one or two shanties, but; '
otherwise this was orvrilderness. -
"Here's a hand." cried a voice from
the pier. "Be careful where you step,
and In a trice we were all on land, when
Jacky and the ladles were told to stand
quite still for fear they might step off
the landing tnto the water. " -7

Jacky, whose mind waa full of all the

Tho "King of "Waul" looked grave, but
he spoke hopefully. v
"The man who looks after things at
this landing works on our plantation. :
I'll tell him to see the captain of the
steamer when she stops on her return ,
trip, and meanwhile I'll try to find out
: If the valise is safe on deck. - I think
very likely It was left behind by mis
take. If so I'll send word to the cap- '
tain to let It off here when he returns." "
"When .will that be?" ksked Polly
Evana :.'. ' ,-
A SHOBT SAIXSOAS
"Not before next Saturday," said th -"King,"
and. Polly Evans' heart eank, ;
for this was "only Tuesdsy night. So, It -.
would be four whole days before she ;
and Jacky could even hope to see their
-tooth brushes again! But every cloud
has Its silver lining. A rapid six-mile
drive through the darkness lock them r
across the Island to the village of Wallu- ,
