(Continued)
AT seven o'clock Drake was dress
ed and ready to go down. He
knew bis guests were arriving. But
on his way down he entered his den
again. He felt uncomfortable. He
never liked entertaining, but never
before had bis dielike taken the bitter
turn it seemed to have taken now. He
felt ns if he simply could not play
boat, even to save a reputation for
courteous hospitality. He loaded up
bis pipe again, flung wide tbe eastern
window, and atood puffing quick little
ainoke balls out into the nigbt. There
was a suggestion of fog creeping up
from the river. The street lights,
and the lamps of moving vehicles
were blurred and yellow. There was
a tang in the air, too. A vague,
salty tang. J
He stood there, never hearing the
dinner gong. The den was filling up
with smoke and fog. The fog outside
grew denser. He was lost in himself
until the door opened, and his aunt
burst in protesting:
"Alden, dear! Are you ill? Your
guests! Oh dear! That, borrid to
bacco again! Why, Alden, this is a
ahame. unon my word it is! You
positively reek, reck of that beastly
old pipe. Come down, do. But you
must really use some prefume to
night! Here!"
. Alden stole away at the first op
portunity and reveled in the dank
fog along with his pipe, defying auntie
and all her kind.
Like many another scion of good
family, Alden had gone to sea upon
leaving school. When the lordly
clipper ship reigned on the sea, sons
of rich fathers as well as sons of
tradesmen served an apprenticeship
in sail simply for the experience.
Few stayed on In the profession.
'Many never made more than tbe first
voyage. Alden had completed his
. four years, because be loved thelife.
He had been a good sailor, too. He
bad secured bis second. mate's ticket
at first attempt. And since there was
no hurry for him to settle down at
home, and since he would not have to
worry about earning a living, he stay
ed on the grand old Patriarch until he
passed to first mate and then master
in turn. Then, inheriting his fortune,
he had quit the sea. Quit it profes
sionally, that is. He had built an
other Fatriarcfi for bis pleasuring; a
mart brigantine yacht, capable of
cruising the world around: and be
chose to command her himself.
He had taken down his master's
certificate from beside his pictured
ships, because it always stung hint
to violent rebellion.- At such mo
ments be was ready to hurl every
consideration to the four winds, and
ship to anywhere in the Seven Hens.
Of course he knew how absurd the
impulse was. That was why he had
fought it. He had made two long
cruises in the yacht; but that was a
futile sort of seafaring, he thought.
Auntie was thore, ond auntie's party.
It was much like being at home, ex
cept that she could not accuse him

torlt by Big Brother of KPO, taken
pipe.
He had fought against that urge
until he was sore with the conflict
He had never even surrendered to
the longing to spend just ono day in
Kailortown, among the docks, nmong
the men who sailed the ships. That
longiug was easier to combat. He
could hop into his car, get some
where outside city limits, and burn
up the roads in a mad whirl of speed.
f nil the while he was breathing
dust and gasoline fumes, his mind
would roam seaward to the tall clip
pers and the blue of the Indian
Ocean..
His pipe wont out. Ho raised
his head and sniffed at the thick fog
now blotting out everything. '
. Muttering while he knocked out
the cold dottle of Iub pipe, he raced
back to the house, sneaking in by
a servants' entrance. Tbe lower part
of th house was bright with lightB,
alive with people. Ho ran up to his
rooms, snatched up more tobacco and
a light overcoat, and with a enp tuck
ed in the pocket crept down to the
entrance again. .
He nlunacd into the fog, lost him
self in the by Btreets until well away
from the house, then lit his pipe
afresh, buttoned bis coat, and Bet out
at a swinging pace, regardless of fog
or more cautious pedestrians, follow
ing his nose towards the river side.
Halted suddenly by a congestion of
fog-bound buses, Drake leaned
againBt a lamp post and for the first
time realized how soft he had become.
His chest heaved to the protest of
fotty lungs, and once they came to
rest his legs tightened all down the
back. He saw the name of a bus
that stopped so closo to the electric
light upon his lamp post Hint tne
shade yet shook from a light touch.
"Burdett Hood! I haven't walked
two miles! And laboring like a foun
dered cow!" He laughed. "Golf!
Eighteen holes at a snail's gait, sock
ing a little ball with a dam big atick,
and doddling along until you find it.
Then homo in the car. Car here, car
there, even an elevator enr to take
you from ono floor to another in the
house. And this is the regular thing
I've done for years. Drake, you
chump, you "
"Taxi, sir?" A hoarse voice barked
at him out of a brown patch on the
fog. "
"Yes. West India Docks." ho said,
and laid a hand on tlio cab door. Then
he laughed ngnln, in fine contempt
of himself. "No thanks, old chap.
I'll walk," he said. "Here, though,
buy yourself a pint of rum and wait
'til the fog rolls by."
He crossed tbe rood and whiBtled
his way onward, still following his
nose towards aromas which had ten
fold intensified. He recognized the
smell of ship chandleries. There was
tho richness of oukum, of pitch, of
turpaulina. There was tho sizzling
greasy reck of fried fish and 'taters.
Nearer than before tugboats blared.
