It was .good such times the sea was lost in mystery. The truth was that 'filed; by the will of the redgods, was perceiving something of the real spirit of the North. A..senaitive man to start with, he caught something' of, its m stree and wonder of which,. as"yet, had no glimpse. And the result was to bring him to the verge of a far= rreaching 'discover'y: that of hie own weakness. He hnd never admitted weakness before. He had always been so sure, of himself, so complacent, so self- sufficient. But curiously these thing$ were dying within him. He found himself doubting, for the first time, the success of this northern. adventure: Could he oope°'with`the realities that were beginning to press upon him?, Would not this northern wilderness show him up as the weakling he was? For the • first time in his life Ned Cornet knew what realism was. He supposed, in his city life, that he had been a realist; instead he had only been a sophist and a mocker in an environment that was never real from dawn to darkness. He had read books that he had acclaimed. among itis young friends as masterpieces of real- ism—usually works whose theme and purpose seemed to be a bald-faced por- trayal al of sex—but now he saw that their very premise was one of false= hood: Here were the true realities -- unconquerable seas and starry skies and winds from off the waste places. Unlike Lenore, Ned's regrets were not that he had ever launched forth upon the venture. Rather he found himself . regretting that he was not better fitted to contend with it. Per- haps, after all, his father had been right and he had been,wrong. For the first time in his life Ned felt the need of greater strength, of stronger sinews. What if his father had told the truth,and that strict trials awaited him here. It was no longer easy to disbelieve him. Almost any disaster could fall upon him here, in these wastes of sunlit water, in the very shadow of the polar ice. The sun itself had lost its warmth. It slanted down upon them fromfar to the south and Ned Cornet is sent by his father, Godfrey Cornet, on a voyage to Nor- thern Canada and Alaska to exchange two thousand silk and velvet gowns with the Indians for fins furs. The profits are to be split 75-25, the lien's share to Ned. Cornet is, accompanied on the voy- age by his fiancee, Lenore Harden - worth, and the.latter's mother..

NOW`GO ON WITH THE STORY There was such a little group of them, only eight in all, The ship w, the expanse of blue. a mere dot in p Around them endlessly lay the sea, swept by unknown winds, cursed by the winter's cold, like death itself in its infinity and its haunting fear. The already life they had left behind was y shadowed and dim: the farewell shouts, the laughter,. the gaiety, teeming crowds that moved and were never still were all like something imagined, unspeakably far off. Only the sea and the sky were left, and the craft struggling wearily, ever farther into the empty North. Lenore found herself oppressed by en unreasoning fear. Realities were getting home to her, and she was afraid of them. It would have been wiser not to come, yet she couldn't have told why..The launch was wholly comfortable; she was already' accus- tomed to the cramped quarters. The men of the crew' were courteous, Ned the same devoted lover as always. The thing was more an instinct with her; such pleasure as the trip offered could not compensate for an obscure uneasi- noss, a vague but ominous shadow .over her mood and heart that was never lifted. Perhaps a wiser and secret self within the girl, a subcon- sciousness which was wise with the knowledge of the ages before ever her being emerged from the germ plasm was even now warning her to turn back. It knew her limitations; also it knew the dreadful, savage realm she had dared to penetrate. The North would have no mercy on her if she were found unworthy. Perhaps in her heart she realized that she represented all that was the antithesis of this far northern donraii}. She was the child of luxury and ease: the tone and spirit of these wintry seas were travail and desolation. She was the product of a generation that knew life only as a structure that men's civilization had built; out here was life itself, raw and naked, strin- ged and bare. She was lawless, undis- ciplined, knowing no code but her own desires; all these seas and the gray fog -laden shores they swept were in the iron grip of Law that went down, her. They, too, were of the realities, and for all her past attitude of sophistication, she found that realism was the one thing she could not and dared not accept. Such realities as these, the wide - to see them undulled by smoke; they touched some side of him that had never been stirred into life before, At stretching seas and the infinity of stars, were rapidly stripping her of cher dearest delusions; and with them, the very strongholds of her being.

Perhaps he was to be weighed in the balance, and it was increasingly hard to believe that he would not be found wanting. In such 'a mood he recalled' his father's words regarding that dread realm of test and trial that lay some- where beyond the world: "some bit- ter, dreadful training camp for those that9eave this world unfitted to go on to a Higher, better world." , He had scorned the thought at first, but now he could hardly get it out of his mind. It suggested some sort of an analogy with his present condition. These empty seas were playing tricks on his imagination; he could conceive that the journey of which his father had spoken might not be sogreatly different than this, There would be the same desolation, the sante nearness of the stars, the emptiness and mys- tory, the same sense of gathering, Mi - pending trim and stress.
