through the brown skin, and her fine
Jody swayed to the ship's giddy roll,

Unihed happily when a flying sprny
drenched her face and pattered like
ihot aeainst her oilskin coat. Cape
Town la' ahead, with its promise of a
pleasant break in the voyage; and the
ship, thoush staggering, staggered on
i straight line for her port at a speed
which wracked the arms of the reel
man when the common log was hove.
Captain Stevens developed into a
wooer. Not even the blindest of bats
could fail to see that the skipper was
madly smitten with Mary Manning.
JXo man need wonder at it either. In
the blusterous days, when sprayH
flew snd sea crests roared aboard,
when gales stung and rain squalls
kept the decks a-drummlng, she was
on deck every day and all day, ex
cept for mealtimes. She looked as if
she belonged there, too, with ber
glistening oilskins, her blooming
cheeks, her sea-blue eyes. She was
the true Ocean's daughter. She stood
on the poop as strongly at ease as
atj man there, swaying to the roll of
the ship.
And CnptRin Stevens kept the
deck too. Stevens made quick work
of his navigational calculations in
order to lose no moments of the
hours that Mary spent on deck. His
keen eyes took on a softer glow. He
spoke to officers or men in quieter
tones.
Never did Mnry appear to realize
that Jake Stevens was mndly in love
with her. Several times he had be
gun to spenk to her in intimate vein,
and had been choked off by Bheer
shyness. His was a shyness of
speech. lie felt like snatching her to
him and bearing her off like a cave
man. When the noon observation nlncod
the ship within two days sail of Tab
le Bay. and preparations were afoot
for coming into port. Captain Stevens
made arrangements for the entertain
ment of Mnry during the stay. She
forgot her uneasiness, thawed to
wards him, sent him into the Seventh
' Heaven of delight with her eagerness.
They tat at the saloon table, poring
orer a Cape Town guide book, long
after the midday dinner had been
cleared away. The steward was mak

re-rictunling; and Drake was helping
aim in the lnznrot beneath the saloon.
