IAN? currents and counter cur-
A rents raise high seas off the
' Cape of Good Hope. Axulbaa sea.i
, are tho most awe-inspiring of any
seas, when they rise In their majesty.
Hut the Agulhas currents were not
more intricate or perilous than the
human cross currents that ebbed and
flowed aboard the Orontes. Mary bid
gladly given her .maiden troth to Al
lien Drake on a never-to-be-forgotten
night )n the flower jeweled suburb
of Knndeboseh.
Tho kiss he bad pressed on her
k"Sj lips still burned. She still shivered
'. ecstatically when she recalled the mo
' ment coming home when he swept
her Into his strong arms and all hut
crushed her to bis heart. Mary was
; no soldior of fortuns In Move's cani
: paign. Drake was her first love. fiho
had never known what love meant
until she felt as if she were melting
'' deliciously In his arms, her body oud
soul morglng Into his. Hut that tint
lesson was all sufficient to her. She
was a woman full grown. o full and
' warm passions; no longer inexper

', teacher were able to touch the tight
' chord, as Aldon Drake had been able
to.
She was not satisfied with the way
mattcra developed after the ship got
, to sea. Thnt first day bad been a
,. chilly experience to her. Wio hid
, forced herself to pntience, knowing
thnt sailing day was over an ordeal to
, ! a new captain. But sho had expected,;
had every right to expect, that wneu
the day was done, and evening found
the ship running free over long, easy
swells that gave nobody the least un
easiness, ber lover would lay aside his
prim dignity and become again the hu
; man being she bsd surrendered to.
But Alden Talbot Drake bad shown
an amazing change of front She drew
him gently over to the leeward, into
the soft black shadow of the clew of
the miszon course, her bands clasped
on his arm. She looked up into bis
'' fnce shyly. Surely a girl might look
! for a kiss: an embrace. Drake patted
; her hand, drew her nearer to him, and
she shivered rapturously.
"This is the sort of a night which
makes even a sailor love tho sea," he
said softly. Sho waited, nestling clos
: rr. She didn't like that tulk of loving
tho sea so well, but she was not one
of the forward sort. Love of any
sort was promising. But tho kiss
came not. Nor the embrace.
"Alden!" sho said softly, but with
' a little not of displeasure.
"What is It SlnryV Shall I got
your coat?"
"Your arm would do," she replied,
. woudering nt her boldness as soon as
' the words were spoken. "Yon might
v give mo a kiwi, too, don't you thing?"
she added with a rush, taking to the
' : deep wnter since sho had dipped. She

"Sli-shJ" ho- uttered. "Aiy dear
; girl, not here! A Hhip's master cannot

wouldn't bo doing his duty. You are
a sailor's daughter. You must know."
"I know you aro owner and cap
tain, too!" sho retorted, breaking
from his nrm oud scarcely moderating
: her voice.
''That Is the more rcaHon why I
V should not show my officers a bod
example, JIniy. Do plonto bo reas
onable." Now whatever a girl may endure
from her sweetheart, sho will not
endiiro tho suggestion (hat sho is not
i reasonable. Mury stood for ono in
; slant, slurlng up into his 'fnco, her
biasing eyes close to his, then: "1
am reasonable!" sho snapped. "I am
as rcasouublo as 1 was -that night
when you Oh, you aro like an ice
'; berg! When you melt you're nothing
but cold water! I hntu you!"
She darted from him, and went bo
' low, lenving him stnring after ber in
astonishment. But ho did not follow,
lie remained on deck for nn hour:
and ho hod the gnce to realize, after
a while, that bis ideas about respon

wero not shakeu. Ho went below,
and tapped on her door as he passed
to go to liis ctibiu.
"Mary, dear," ho called softly. In
an instaut alio was nt tho open door,
ber eyes shining, her face glad with
expectancy. So new was this love of
hers that she could not hold auger
for long.
"Don't he angry, Mary," he said,
placing an arm about her shoulders.
"You musn't mnke things harder for
me. Oood-nlght, my dear."
She put her lips up o Ills. He
kissed her, patted her shoulder, and
was gone, leaving her standing in
the doorway. She gazed after him
until his door closed; then her own
door crashed shut, and l lie saloon
rang with the thud. Iko Saintly

Cynthia Grey Says:
T
TN the days of old u lover sent his
sweetheart -sonnets to her, eye
brows. But nowadays a girl prefers
theater tickets and a five-pound box
of candy us tangible proof of a mau'd
affectiou.
No matter how gray and lined a
worn no may become, there are never
wrinkles ou ber heart. It' stays youn
to tiie end of time.
The man who makes a girl think
about hun when she 1ms made up her
mind never to think of him ngniu, is
the ouo man in tho world for her,
The trouble with n man's love is
that it blooms fr one Reason. Jlut u
woman's is like the evergreen.
Questions Answers.
Dear Miss Grey: I have been mar
ried only three months, but already 1
know that my wife is never going to
be u good housekeeper, She can't
seem to learu to cook or to keep my
clothes mended. Would you advise gfV-
ing up our home and living iu u hotel'
Disappointed,
(jivu your wife u chance. She's
still new lo her job. Why don't
you suggest to her that she take
a few cooking lemons. There ui'u
good teachers everywhere.
Dear Miss Grey; My huth.tnd and 1
have always been too busy bringing
up the children to "step out" mue.'i.
1 tut now they re all in school and we
haye moru time. He have been gom
around with a wild crowd we metsut
tho shore this Kumim-r. Tbey're very
nice people except that they dance
and drink too much. Then t hy make
love to each other. It doesn't mean
anything, 1 know, 1 tut. mill it makes
me unhappy when my htitUKind fol
lows suit. Would it he silly of me to
speak to hun about it t talherme.
No, it wouldn't be silly. If these
people's careless way a get on
your nerves it seems to be the'
wise tiling would be to give them
up and seek friends who have the
m in o tastes lint you and your
husband have.
