Then I sat dolva and waited, full •of righteous indigna-1 tion, and determined to command m own ship.g n less than two minutes dicta was a tap at the door, and Vizard stop- , ped into the cabin, His smile had !vanished, leaving his face very hard and stern but though he looked Y he showed no alert! expectant,spending rho •sur praise which to theas- traces es of gsay captain's cabin in suah ahigh-eland- way would naturally have felt if ignorant of the cause. This strength- ened me in the accusation I was going to make, and I spoke with confidence. "I have sent far you, Mr. Vizard, I said, "because I rocognized you the moment you came 3e on board this evening . What do shipping as n stowaway, and them when I land you xs such, byiing threatening illy cro and myself with a revolver v" "It is always ars open to a man to place his own constructions on the 1 actionn sneeringly, fanoter," was hishthearepl , P took my breath away. It was tan- tamount to an admission, and his 'manner had nothing of the practical Joker about it. i felt that whatever this motive had been, whatever his schemes were, that they had been conceived and carried out in grim earnest. "And the constructions that I put upon your conduct, sir, are such that I decline to take you as a passenger,'t I replied hotly. "Tate steward shall render you every as- sistance, but a boat, will be ready to take you and your baggage ashore in fifteen minutes." The notice to quit was received with a sarcastic bow. "It has not dawned upon you, mei worthy Captain, that the coir structions which your owners may upon your conduct, in forcibly landing a passenger whom they have contracted to carry, may cause them to dispense with your services ?" ho said. "Daum the owners 1" I retorted, and I remembered afterwards the curious smile with which he heard the expletive. "If you can settle it that way with them, do so by all means. 1 wouldn't sail under own -1 ors who would back up a =sillier- ading mountebank of a stowaway— no matter what his position—against their captain. Come, sir, you had best go and see about your things. The boat will be manned and ready on the port side in ten minutes." "Vary wall, I will go," he replied, drawing himself up to his full height and turning to the door, but pausing on the threshold to say • Ihind "You alleged just now that I bhave threatened you at Barcelona, Do You recollect the words of my threat 0" I wanted no more truck with him, 80 merely nodded. 'Then, speaking entirely without prejudice, you can consider those words as still in force and as, exactly defining the position,' he' said as he left the cabin. Ten minutes later I had the antis- faction of seeing hint into the boat, which I tools care was not manned by any of the crew who had put hint ashore at Barcelona. The _,_—. __._ third mate went in charge, and I gave him a hint that he had a tough customer to deal with and had better slip a pistol into his . I wan ke ons to see i[ would ml[n any protest or explanation before the passengers, but, so reit as I know, h° hold ito communication with any ono from the ulna o[ leaving the eaptahl's room to that of going over the sale, As the Uoat shot out htto fife dark- Hess towards filo tw[nitllug lights of the cit he waned his hand Y, jauntily to me, and I heard him laugh. In half an hour the boat returned, ' and the third officer reported that I Vizard had given him no trouble whatever. He had not alluded to the circumstances under which he was being put ashore, but had chat- ted chill on trifles, and had finish- ed up bygivingthe boat's crow a I sovereign to drink his health, On the part of such a man this coni- latent struck me as ominous. p Y Naples was our next port of cell, and I determined to keep a good look -out for hire there. 1''or the moment, however, 1 was rid of the undesirable passenger, and I was free to turn m attention Co a matter of ••more immediate interest, This was the non -return of 'Zavertal, who, when I turned in at eleven o'clock, was still absent from the iship. Kennard, also, was still on shore, but from what he had said, 1 regarded this as metol a Cense- .Yq quence of the doctor's absence, and in any case, as a passenger, he was entitled to a freedom of action which was hardly the privilege of an officer paid to discharge medical duties. To my mind, the doctor's conduct iii s endtn the on nightb shore without leave constituted, to the !oast of it, a breach of r discipline, thoug}t whether, in the (peculiar organization sanctioned by the owners, he would consider it so was doubtful. la the morning he was still ab- sent, and at ten o'clock I had heard nothing of him or his "shadow," though they were both aware that tape ship was to proceed on her voy- g at noon. Another half-hour) passed, and I was thinking of send- on shore to the Hotel de Genes, which Zavertal had mentioned as the place of meeting lr when a nitrate boatg with li alongside,myspeedy bringing a letter addressed to me in his handwriting.Tearing it open, I "British Consulate, Genoa, - "June 24, 1893, "Dear Captain Forrester, "T am detained here in au ex- trerany awkward dilemma, from which your presence can alone ex -Since tricate me, "May I beg of you, on receipt of this, to come ashore at once to the Consulate, whereBefore you will he me anxiouslyawaiting you, The affair will not take long to settle, and there is no reason why the sailing of the ship should be delayed if you act at once. "Yours respectfully, "LUCIUS 'LAVERTAL," There was only one tiling to be � done, and that was to go and get firm out of pawn whatever his trouble might be, or, falling that, 1to secure the services of another • medical officer. For a pleasure- cruiser, with between two ancc�t three IJ! hundred people on board, mkoy of themjconsidering themselves in- 1 valids, i:o put to sea without afloc- ;tor would be an impossibility. The !boat that had brought the letter +was still alongside, and I decided to go in her in preference to waiting while my gig was manned. After I informing the chief officer of the contents of Zaverte,l's letter, I put' a sum of money in my pocket in case of need, and went towards the boat. On my way along the decklzles I met Aline and told her that I vvas.Your goinganoint, to fetch the doctor, who had been detained by business on shore, "1 wish you would leave him be- then, Cyril," she said. I can- not bear that man." "Why—what has 11.0 been doing ?" 1 asked, in some surprise, for I had noticed that Zavertal had been par- titularly civil and deferential to her and Mrs. Brinklvortlt. "Olt, nothing very much • only 110 is always pestering me to take his medicines when 1 am perfectly well and don't require thein," she replied,• Thispiece of information was so new, and, moreover, fitted in so compactly with the horrid thought that had crossed my mind as to Z'avertars Possible reasons for men- boning the three "serious cases," tht it occupied tab all Clio luny to lanritng-pinto. Taken in con- with the doctor's strange detention at the Consulate, the only conclusion I could deduce from it was that Kennard had made soxue discovery which had vvar- ]tis a !yin to the author- tires, but how Zave nal could su pose that I should be either able c willing to liberate him under such Circumstances was beyond my under- Standing, The two nimble Italian boatmen made short work of the distance, and 1 was soon walking across tho Piazze Cavonr to the Consulate, Froze my early studies of detective literature, I find hal[ expected to see iienndrd hanging about the door in in his disguise, but he was l,owhore visible. Only the usual streams of ships' captains, scauton, and mor- chants' clerks , jostled each other going and coming through tete swing -doors loading into the wait- of the lousiest Consulate in Europe.

From the Consul's tone and man- nor 1 guessed that Zavertal had taken sides against me, by pretend- in to fail in recognizing Vizard as Enri uez. I began to leave an gr uneasy feeling that something had been got alpfor ane, and this so raised my gorge that I answered rashly,— "Not exactly an accusation—at least, not yet," I blurted out. "But I believe him to bo a scheming', underhand scoundrel. I cannot put it into words, but 1 only know that the ship has been chock full of mys- aeries and disguises and can -meet spiracles over since she left port, and the can all ho traced to this Y man," "Ah, that about settles it then," said the Consul decisxrely.

Directly I opened the door I saw, by a wall four feet in front of me, that I was mistaken. The place in which I found myself was a narrow passage, passing the door in each direction to the right and left. I could note more, a number of faces closed in upon me on either hand, I was violently seized by strong arms, a pungent cloth was pressed to my nostrils, and I felt myself becoming quickly powerInss in mind and body.

It goes without saying that a farm is incomplete without a dog, he is so important to the farm, we would ask, is ho properly cared for and 'loused. Ito needs shelter AS well as cattle and sheep, though ho is but a dog. The dog is quick to discorax the difference between a harsh and a kind word. Continual use of harsll language makes hint Milifferent and do.unmindfulit what you want hexa to do. It is therefore imperative to use kind words always. been he does a Praiseworthy act, pet kiln on tho head, and reward him with one or two kind words, and you will anon notice a great difference, !'oxer kick or cuff a dog. 1P he noode so- veto punishment, use a willow or a Pesch switch upon him, and it win prove more effective.
