he walked away and leaned on the
bulwark on the othrr side. "The water's
ratlins quite deep,"
I 'followed. 'There quite i rle of
tide, It' nearly full, and then It will
turn In about an hour, I should say."
She looked at the little chatelaine
wafch he wore, ami gave a cry of ill-
may,
"Hut that will be 7 o'clock, ami then
dine at the club nt that time, ami my
aunt will be worried halt out of her poor
old .head."
"They dine too early; they mls the
betj part of the day."
?ie turned a trifle Imperiously to
ward me. "Will, that U the hour, and
I tmut be getting back. What answer

"The first la to wait until the can ne
wsy I dry," I answered, avoiding her
eye and looking out to wa.
"Hut that ! out of the question," she
Mill, with the faint hint of a tapping
toot upon the deck. The touch of au
thority made me, stubborn.
"There a fine view of the sunset
from here, thoush not x fine a from
therein beyond my houe. You should
ee that some evening when you're not
afraid of ml!ng dinner."
She looked nie over while I kept my
face away, and I could feel the atruggle
whether resentment or amusement ihould
have the upper hand. The latter finally
won. "Pleae help me to get home, Mr.
the began.
"Fell SelJen," I aupplled her. "though
I'd much rather you stayed here. Mis

Ing. "Barbara Graham." she answered quite
frankly. Then suddenly she laughed, and
I fwaa forced to Join her. "Come, Mr.
Pirate, now that are properly known to
each other, and I bare thanked you for
your compliment, will you think of a way
to save my poor aunt from nervous pros
tration? If you will, I prombw some day
to go without dinner and come to see the
unset from your cliff."
"It's a bargain." I said, and strode res-
clntely across the deck to ,Ibe side where
the causeway ran.
"But how? What are you doing to
dor; came In surprised accents from Miss
Graham.
I stopped and turned. "You will not
wait for the tide, an J you must not wet
the, slippers, so there's only ono way
left."
"And what Is that? she. aked.
"For me to carry you ashore."
I happened to be looking at her, and
her 'face ' went pink of a second, pink
over the brown of the sun.
""Hut." she stammered. "I don't think
that would do."
"Jt'a the only altematlrce," I said,
positively.
"Are you sure.' she said, "that you
are strong enough?"
I, looked at her slender figure and
laughed, "f have not lived out of doors
for nothing," I answered. I could car
ry, you from here to the Shifting Shoal
yonder without tiring.'
Again cametb 'Infectious laugh, ap
parently at the thrill of the adventure,
and I found It "impossible to keep from
joining her. '
"Hut It's time I made the boat good,'
I answered, and, leaning towards ber,
picked ber up In my arms, careful to
keep the little slippers and ber skirts
clear of the waves. .
"You must put your arm about my
ceck to keep the balance," I said, "or
I'll not guarantee the consequences."
"Must IV" she said quite demurely, and
did as I commanded.
Feeling my way cautloutly, I started
to, cross the causeway. A false step and
I should baie slipped Into the deeper
water, so I went slowly, feeling for safe
footing as I took eaeh step. Once I
glanced momentarily at the faro which
waa to elose to mine, but Ml Graham's
W.iVwe fixed on the shore ahead, and
would net look at me.
We reached the sand at tha foot of tha
cliff and I put the girl 'down. Khe looked
a her slippers.
'"Splendidly done," she said. "Not ,n
drop of water touched me. You're quite
as strong as you said."
"Iteiaenber the cause," I amwered.
'"Hut jou're frightfully wet." the ob
jected, looking at my heavy, riding breech'
es and legging, which were ' soaked
through. "You mut run Imek to'tbe" cot
tage as fait at you can, to save yourself
A coM."
"'I must nee you to the club first," I
answered. "I know a tbort cut back of
the cjlff and through the wood!"
"Hurry, then," she said. "I'll not
have you .catching cold on my account"
We scumbled up the headland and.

following close behind. We went along
nt a dog trot, and, although I oftcu
mopped to insure against her tiring, I
found that iha waa a strong runner and
wanted no rest, ,At Lut ue came to a

Then I remembered our bargain. "You
said that It I set you ashore jou would
come to see the sunset from my cliff.
You haven't forgotten that?"
"No: but I must think out a way.
They dine here at such n stupid hour. Hut
t promise you that some afternoon jou'll
see me strolling down the beach, and
then It there's a sunset I'll let you show
It to inc. You deserve that much, at
let, for coming to my rescue."
She gave tue her hand a second time,
and turned Into the ground ot the I'en
guln Club. I looked at my watch; she
would bo Just In time tor dinner,
t walked bark through the woods and
up the beach. -The western sky was fair
ly ablaze with color. It seemed that a
beacon flamed through the pines upon my
cliff.
"Have you ever known such n beauti
ful afternoon. Charles?" I asked my man
at supper.
"Neier. Mr. Fellr, never."
I was sitting so that I could look out
ot the' window at the sea.
"It was unuiually glorious even for
Alastalr, wasn't It?". I pursued.
"Vn, sir. It cvrtalnly was, sir, even
tor Alastalr, sir."
After supper I had my coffee on the
balcony and nt there and smoked and
wondered how long It had been since a
petticoat had boarded the Ship.
CIIAPTKIl HI.
The weather next morning wai Jut
right far a ride, and sending for my
horse, I made a great circuit of the
woods, coming back by the marshe
about noon. As I galloped past the. up
per end of the lowland I heart! a voice
calling to me, and, drawing rein, waited
until the voice's owner appeared. This
proved to be an extremely sunburned
young man dressed In very loud tweeds.
He carried a fishing-rod over his arm,
and a Sib-banket dangled from hi shoul
der. "I ssy, do you know the country here
abouts?" he Inquired. "I've lost my
way, and I'm Infernally hot and tlrrd."
He looked It; hi lips were almost a
mutinous a these of a spoiled child, and
even the tilt ot bis soft felt bad had a
deject ed aid.
"Where do you want to go?" I asked
In return. "The I'enguln club lies about
three miles off to the east."
"Yes, tbaft lr." he said. "I'm a Fen
gulnlte, worse Inck." He dropped the
fishing-rod and tried to kick sumo of the
mud from his boots. "I came out to get
some fUblng at 5 this morning, and not
a bite hare I had, nor a morsel of food
tasted since. My leg ache at the thought
of that three miles yet to go. Isn't there
a farm-house somewhere near where I
could get something to eat?"
The appeal In bis eyes was so plaintive
that I could not help smiling. Thereat
he smiled back.
"It'a a beastly ptrkle, ln't It?" he
said. "The next time I'll arrange to
have a matt follow me with lunch."
It was only a quarter of a mile to my
cottage. "Come along with me," I said.
"I'll fix you up."
He grlnnd gratefully, and trudged
along beside me until up came to the cot
tage. I called for Charles and sent him
off with the horse. My the time he re
turned, mj guest was feeling conlder
ably better, having postponed famine by
the aid of whisky and soda. He sat
down to dinner with the air of a king
come Into his own. For a time he ntn
silently but strenuously, then he looked
up at me.
"They don't give us such food at the
club, no, slr-ee, and as for the wines,
they can't compare with your claret.
Funny to think of finding such thing
down here In the country, away of at the
end of an empty beach. I didn't know
there wis a clvlllied man within fifty
miles of here. Do you happen to come
from New York?"
"Originally," I made answer. ''Hut It
waa tome Ijree ago."
"Funny thing, New York," said my
guest. "When I'm back there I think I'd
like to be out in the open country, but
a soon as 1 have my wish I'm erazy
for the old burg. Fie been down at the
I'enguln now for more than two week,
and I don't suppose an hour of the day
pastes when I don't long fur the scenery
of Hroadway. The worst time I at
night. I can" alt on the club porch and
fairly hear the Wevated slizle by. Some
time It 'teems a If I really couldn't
stand it any longer."
Why do you?" I asked.
"There are reason, good and suffi
cient reasons," lie answered, with a slow
smile. "Keason for which I might be
living in Kamchatka at well on any
where else."
He looked at me Intently for a' few
second!, then lighted a cigarette, i
"You're not IntjuititliP, are you? First
rule to succYit In any business affair.
However, there are certain facts you are
entitled to hate: my name it Itodney

The man In tweeds nodded. Hi threw
hack his Ihvi.iI unit blew n cloud of suSoke
In an upwiird spiral. "So little differ

History teaches that people are al
ways ready to be fooled, I answered.
"However, I don't blame them, 1m a

I'llp looked at me with a merry twin
kle. "The solitary life make ton a philoso

I nulled "An uneasy conscience?"
"No; I'm no t'tirntic. I brllet. the
only plnoe tor such lueti I under lock
and key. Hut I hate to sit Mill and
think In my present condition,'
He did not seem disposed to explain
that position, and 1 would not press him.
After a time we adjourned to my bal
cony mid sat there ettjojliiit the day, car
rying on a somewhat desultory conver
sation I found that I liked thl man;
there was n frank runuiraderl about
him, in openne of face nud spirit, that
Irresistibly appealed. He st-emed the

"IVi yu ever lMot nt gull?" h
asked, noting the Mnl that wheeled con
tinually In from sea ami over the cliff.
"No; It' bad luck to sWit them. In
stormy weather, when sailor can't see
their hand before their farm, they can
hear the lieatlug of gull' wing and look
out for hidden rock. Or come to
think a great deal ef seafarers down this
way."
"I dare say. It taoit be beastly work
In a storm at sea."
"I often think that when I'm In bed
on a bad night. The Shoal I.Uht ) under
keep nioit ot the ship nwty,"
We stacked for a time In silence.
"What a contrast," Isllp said at length,
"between this quiet beach und the folk
at the club! I think I like thl the bet
ter of the two, hut I (hould want com
pany." ".Many people over there now?"
asked.
"A goedlsh number."
"Who are they?" I Inquire.! Idly.
