be proud, happy and anxious to
make good and come clean. The

to home he has in the army or
navy. Tell him you are helping

it.

By ELINOR MARSH
Lieutenant Arthur Delano r I lu
United States nav.v having certain tin
ties connected with llghtliuUautt on the
Atlantic coast one day was pulled up
to the Wilson leer" light by a crew of
sailor oarsmen and upon stepping ott
to tlio lauding place was tiTclvcd lit
a girl -ulioiit nineteen jenro old.
'Fa titer lias ticca obliged to go Into
town today." she said. "A part of tin
machinery lounected with the light
broke utnl must lie repaired before
time for lighting."
"And yon are in charge. I suppose'"
"1 nm."
There was one of those mutual at
tractions between the ollker nnd the
girl that sometimes appear at once
when two persons of opposite sex meet.
"Let me see." said Delano; "thin light
Is In charge of"
"Edward .latnioson."
"And you are"
"Ellie .lamicson,"
The girl conducted him through the
lighthouse on a tour of inspection,
which he seemed In no hurry to Mulsh.
Then he got had; into the boat and
was pulled away. After that he made
numerous inspections of the girl, not
the lighthouse, and fell In love with
her. Her father was nu educated man
who, having met with toverses when
ho was too old to regain Ids grip on the
world, had been forced to accept the
position of llglitlion.se keeper. A match
between Delano and ICtllo Jamlesou
would not be a misalliance so far as
blood and natural relineuient were
.concerned, but he shrunk from marry,
ing the daughter of a lighthouse keeper.
Nevertheless love was strong enough
to prevent hlin from keeping away
from her, and he allowed hlmiself to
fall Into the position of it suitor with
out really being one. lie used to call
at the lighthouse with a boat and take
her sailing. Many a happy hour they
thus spent together, dancing over tho
bluo waters, of which they were both
very fond. One dny while they were
sailing together Delano noticed Elllo's
arm, from which a looso sleeve had
fallen back.
"I would like to see you In ovcnlng
dress. That arm of yours should nov
er bo hidden from view by u sleeve."
Involuntarily she pulled the sleevo
down from tho elbow, but made no re
ply to the compliment.
"Ono would think from tho way you
keep your urms covered that you were
ashamed of them. Most women would
give a lot to havo such an arm."
"I hove no reason to bo ashamed of
my arm," said ElUc.
"Then why are you so careful to keep
It cpTorel?"
There was no reply to thin. Hut nlio
was looking fur out ott the wntcrH,
with nn expression lu her face that
told she could say something of Inter
est about what they were talking If
ho chose. Dohinu'K curiosity was
aroused, hut there was Unit lu tho look
to Indicate tlmt ho would be trespass
nig If he made further Imnilr.v. lie
noticed a wind iloud on the horUtm
ami, putting tho boat nhout. started for
the lighthouse.
Tho cloud came rapidly, and, al
though the young sailor would have
liked to tnliko speed by keeping up full
sail, ho did not daro do so, Lowering
alt hut tho Jib, he scudded along, mak
ing what headway he could by this
limited menus. Suddenly the wind
struck him and with such force that
his boat went over. Fortunately they
were not far from shore, and both were
excellent swimmers. Striking out.
after a long pull, lu which Klllo scorn
ed to bo gottlng the worst of it, they
came within the breaker lino and were
rolled up on the sand.
Klllo, who wits exhausted, lay still.
Delano got ou to his feet and ran to
her. She had managed to divest her
self of her jacket, which she had put
on ns the storm camo up. ou being
thrown Into the water, and the looso
slcovo of her dress had fallen back
and exposed her left arm above the
elbow. A tattoo In blue Ink of a girl
rowing a boat was exposed. When
Delano came tjp and she saw him look
ing at the mark she pulled down the
sleeve.
Having rested as long n:i they dared
In their wet clothes, chilled by a llerce
wind, Debsno h?lped his companion to
arise, and they started for the light,
nut fur distant.
As soon as they had been madu com
fortable Delano asked tho girt how
she came by the tattoo ou her arm.
fie did not get a continued story, but
one elicited by many :ucstious. This
Is how tlie tattooing occurred:
One day when a storm was raging,
tho light keeper being away. Utile, his
daughter, wes the only one In the light
house. A ship was wrecked on a ledge
that t lie light guarded. Tho coast
guard hastened to save tho crew and
passenger:), but they were too Into.
Klllo got out a boat and, attaching a
lino to It, carried It to the ship. How
she escaped being swamped was a mir
acle. Tho coast guard made tho tat
too. "The life saving men put the tattoo
there. I didn't v. apt them to do it, but
they Insisted. I was only tlfteen, but
I knew ue.ttcf nnd should have refused.
Father wus away, lteforu ho got back
It was done and could never bo un
done." Delano married Klllo Jamlesou nnd Is
now a high ratd.lng olllccr In the navy.
He Is very -protjil of his wife's tattoo
marl: and occasionally begs her to
show It at functions by wearing a
sleeveless dress. Hut she has always
refused.
