forenoon when Madagascar loomed

"Are you giving me slack?" snarled
Stevens. "Are you giving me back
esst, you useless lump o' lard?"
"Don't call me -out o' me name,
fa" returned Joe fearlessly. "I ain't
rlrln' yer no slack. It's nigh eight"
"I'll show you!" gritted Jake, and
knocked fat little roly-poly Joe head
loaf with a cruelly unexpected punch
on the ear. Joe acrnmbled to his
.set, blood trickling from his ear, his
twinkling eyes cold and starry. Drake
was taking a noon sight on the poop,
with Mr. Twining taking another for
' check from the monkey bridge.
Drake happened to remove the sex
tant from his eye for a reBt, -the sun
still being short of meridian, and
saw Joe confront Stevens. There
was something about the happy little
seaman that warned Drake all was
not well. He laid down his sextant,
and walked forward along the mon
key bridge.
"Mister Stevens, you 'It me,"
wheesed Joe simply: "I'm a liable
seaman, sir, and I give yer no lip,
don't hallow no man to 'it me for
aothink. 'It ,me again, air, please.
I'll pay yer aht fer two in one. Come
on. nab. You started it.
"I'll talk ter yon afterwards, me
son!" said Joe grimly, waiting for the
mate to take up his challenge. Jake
grinned like a snarling dog, leaning
forward in a crouch; his great handx
clenching and unclenching until the
bones crackled. - Slowly he reached
Mt until the ciawlike ' fingers of his
left hand were almost at Joe s neck
bis right fist drew back to strike. Joe
watched the approaching claw out of
a corner of one eye; but ho evinced
no fear.- Rather helooked aB if he
welcomed the chance to fake a good
solid wallop at that terrifying face.
He hoped the mate wqnld not be too
long getting started. It was almost
eight bells.
"That will do, Mr. Stevens I You
may go aft! You, Bunting, get
rorard at once!" said a clear level
voice, and Drake leaped from the
monkey bridge to , the fore hatch, and
tnence to the dCck between the be
lligerents. "He's a mutinous dog!" snarled
Stevens. "He wants flaking."
'That will do. I want no flaking
oone, Jlr. btevens. Go aft!" retorted
Drake. The mate turned aft mutter
ing. The seamen dispersed, still mut
tering their grievance, for they felt
they had been robbed of a piece of
port.
On the night following the trouble
with Joe Bunting, Mnr.v was restless,
could not sleep. She slipped a warm
robe about her to stand off the heavy
tropic dew, and went on deck. She
did not go outside the open compan
onwer. but stood there in the shad
ow, gazing out across V the softly
raving sea which lay like a gem
smothered carpet of purple satin
ler the glittering heavens. Stevens
s on watch. His big, powerful
igare paced fore and oft on feet
jnsht as a girl'a, bead sunk between
tas shoulders, except at each' tarn

ip and sea with a sailorly glance.

Radio

A. V. Conradt, of Wallace, Ida., re-
viu uu new ana unusual freak when
he tuned in Kh'I and WOQ recently,
both broadcasting the same rnoc. r
dance music simultaneoualy in the
aama rythm. Checking the phenome
non with a meronome, he thought it
waa a rebroadcast, but later (found
that the arrangementa of the two
orchestras were slightly different The
chance of duplicating this freak la
bout one In a million "listen ins."
The Hsdio club de . Pernambuco,
Brazil, has installed a broadcastinr
station to have a radius of about 4U0
miles, and plans to interest the wnnth
of the country in the new art, dis-
patcnes to the commerce department

Dear Miss Grey: I met the girl I
lore a year ago when I had a nice
little grocery business of my owd.
But time bare been so bad, and I
hare had to sell my business and go
to work at a low salary. I don't tee
bow I can marry for a long time, na
less my gill is willing to lire as a
poor roan's wife. Do you think a girl
will face poverty for tht make of the
man ahe lores? Dan.
Many a woman has, yon know,
Dan. Kren the marriage serrlce
says,, "for richer, - for poorer,
And thousands of women have
cheerfully repented It, and hare
faced poverty with a light heart.
If your sweetheart lores you. I'm
ure ahe will marry yon in spite
f the loss of your grocery busi
ness. Ask ber.
Dear Miss Grey. Please g5rs me

Dear Miss Grey: Bo many girls I
