He is to ex- go to the deck r{lone: suddenly over the bow he sudd y perceived a faint silver radiance close to the horizon.. His iirst'impression, was that the boat had taken a south- easternly course, and this argent gleans was merely the banner of the rising moon. Immediately he knew better: except by the absolute dis- ruption of cosmic law; the moon could not rise for at least four hours. He knew of.no coast light anywhere in the region, and it was hard to believe that he had caught the far-off glimmer. of a ship's dight. Seemingly such fol- lowers of the sea nad been left far behind them. But ashe watched the Tight grew. His own pulse quicker -ed. And pres- ently a radiant streamer burst Straight upward like a rocket, flutter- ed a moment, and died away. A strange thrill and stir moved ntrieac tlrroLgh the r y of his nerves. He knew now what this light por- tended;.jt was known to every way- farer in the North, yet the. keenest excitement took hold of him, "The Northern Lights!" he told himself. A quiver of exultation, passed over him. A few feet distant on the deck Bess' eyes turned from the miracle in the skies to watch the slowly growing light in Ned Cornet's face, It was well change two thousand silk and velvet Thns with profits are Indians nfor e to be fine furs, e 75-25, the lion's share to Ned. Seven persona go en the ship with Ned: his fiancee, Lenore Harclenworth, and her pother; Bess Gilbert, a seamstress; Captain Knutzen, assisted by McNab and For- est and one cook. Mrs. Hardenw:,rth objects to eating at the same table with the seamstress. Bess resolves to avoid the thre aristo- crats. Ned is polite to Bess when oc- casionally they meet, but Lenore and her mother ignore the giro. As the voyage continues and the weather grows colder much discomfort is felt by Mrs. Hardenwerth and Le- nore who haw come unsuitably clothed for a sea voyage. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. CHAPTER VII.-(Cout'd., The name of the craft was s the Charon! The thought chilled him and dismayed him. For all his boasted realism, Ned Cornet had never got away from sup- erstition. Man is still not far distant from. the Cave and Squatting Place, and superstition is a spectre front out the dead centuries that haunts all his days. The coincidence that their craft, plying through these deathly waters, should bear such a name as the Charon suddenly suggested a dark - possibility to Ned. All at once this man, heretofore so sure, so self-suffi- elent, so incredulous of anything ex- cept his own continued glory and hap- piness and life, was face to face with the fisrt fear the simple, primitive fear of death. Was that his fate at the journey's end? Not mere trial, mere hardship and stress and adventure, but uncom- promising death! Was he experienc- ing a premonition? Was that training camp soon to be a reality, as terribly real as these cold seas and this sky of stars instead of a mere figment of an old man's childish fancy? The thought troubled and haunted him, but it proved to be the bast pos- +s sible influence for the man himself. t / For the first time in his life Ned Cor- net was awake.

Even now they were nearing the ,journey's end. Presently he turned, made his way into the hold, and openi+d one of a pile of iron -bound wooden cases. When he returned to the dining saloon he car- ried a dark bottle in each hand. "All hands celebrate tonight!" he cried. "We're going to go home!" Out of the sea the wind seemed to answer him. It swept by, laughing. CHAPTER IX. Ned's news was received with the keenest delight by Lenore and Mrs. Hardenworth. The latter regained her lost amiability with promptness, Le- nore's reaction was not dissimilar from Ned's; in her native city she. could come into her 'own again. (To be continued.)

' If. it is impossible to secure comfortable beds, as much coni - fort as possible should be sought in ' whatever arrangements are made. The matter of clothing has something to da` with health on 'a motor trip. During the summer the tourist should dress as comfortably as possible and as in- formally. In regard to sleep, it is de- sirable that loose hygenic night gar- ments be worn, instead of what is rather common practice"- especially among camping tourists, of sleeping in their day clothes. REGULAR MEALS NEEDED Regularity in eating three meals will help to keep the. motorist well. In the diet may be included at least a quart of milk daily, a substantial amount of vegetables and certainly a' considerable amount of fruit, -prefer- ably raw. Meats, eggs, 'cheese and nuts need not be avoided, but should be consumed in limited "quantities. Drinking plenty of water is also re- • commended by most dietetic experts. In addition to taking what time is needed for meals, it is in keeping with good health maintenance to relax for a Tittle while after each meal. If motorists on tour will proceed on their trip -with some sense of leisureliness, much of the strain which causes nerv- ousness and irritability and conse- quently endankers health, will be avoided. In fact, motorists on tour need some form of daily exercise of recreation to keep them physically lit, since simply riding in the car day after day does not give one sufficient exercise. There are plenty of places along every route where people can stop for swimming, tennis, golfing and especially hiking, all of wsich will tend to make the tour more interesting and enjoyable as well as more healthy. Not only. do the .occupants of an automobile on tour need to protect theirenjoyment by conforming to the generally accepted rule of health, but the automobile itself needs to be kept. in a-realthy condition. For instance, when the tourists are stopping for, their noonday meal, the automobile standing idly by is securing a rest which tends to keep it in good health; -Other matters which need attention are well known by most motorists:. Left -Overs Left -over cabbage may creamed. for another meal or it can be minced 'and cooked in :the frying -pan with a little sausage fat for six minutes, thein arranged on platter and garnished with fried sausage and served with mashed potatoes. . Cold spinach can be finely chopped, then creamed and served in a mould with slices of hard-boiled egg over the top. Left -over asparagus can be cut into small pieces and heated in a cream sauce, orit can by served with French dressing as a salad.'
