hang if all; Ire sorry you're not en-
joying your luncheon. Feeling ill?"
The girl had pushed back her plate,
and she now sat silently contemplat-
ing her hands clasped upon the table -
edge,
"I—I—believe: I am not feeling very
well," she replied faintly, meeting his
anxious look with eyes so somber that
Tom was alarmed. "A touch of head-
ache—don't let me spoil your appe-
tite—it will be gone in a minute," And
she mustered up the ghost of a smile.
Tam, though, continued to watch
tier, his own countenance reflecting
his suddenly awakened concern, while
her smile grew until presently she was
apparently her normal,self again.
o-:"There! -it is gone!" she Lightly de-
:dared,
dared, and, to Tom's immense relief,
commenced chattering gayly, anddid
pot again allude to the "scatter-
brained" cousin. But neither did she
do more than trifle with the succession
of dishes which Hewitt's deft bands
placed before her.
When the meal was finished, her
mood underwent another abrupt
change; she grew serious again.
"Now, if you will excuse me, I be-
lieve I will go and lie down for a
'while."
"Yes, do," be urged. "Too bad you
should feel sol Isn't there anything
I can do?—anything I can get you?"
His eagerness to serve her was re-
warded
o-warded with a smile that made her
lovely tour}'.mance inexpressibly sweet
'and w'ier;eg; but it was manifest even.
to his heedless regard that she was
'distrait and wanted to be alone.
The long afternoon dragged by in a
,monotonous fashion, and Tom was
both disappointed and troubled when
'Molly, the mulatto stewardess, in-
iformed him that none of the ladies
would appear for dinner.
"The other young lady seems ter-
ribly -worried," Molly enlarged; "she
has something on her mind that's driv-
•Ing her distracted. Mies—your friend
4s trying to quiet her."
The news augmented his curiosity.
"What seems to be the matter?" he
asked.
"Don't know," replied Molly with an
air of importance. "She just suffers
and don't say anything. She's a high.
;strung young lady, the kind that feels
more than most do. She's taking it
pretty bard, whatever her trouble may
be."
As he dined in solitary grandeur,
Tom puzzled over the circumstance
not a little, and, as was usual with
him, the inference was slow in coma
ing, that whatever had upset the mysq
terious young lady, it must have oc-
curred on the yacht. The merriment
of all three, as they came aboard lase
night, testified to this fact. At any
rate, he thus accepted the conclusion,
without taking into account that tho
trouble was a secret one, and that it is
woman's peculiar gift to be able to
hide carping care behind a mask of
gayety.
But he bad scarcely got his pipe to
going before ono of the watch sought
film out where he had retired upon the
bridge, bearing the information that
a young Ie.dy wanted to see him im-
mediately at the gangway.
He descended to the main cleck and
made his way onward with as brave a
show of notehalance as he could rally.
The night was clear and starlit,
and consequently the darkness was
not so dense as it bad been the previ-
ous night; therefore, when he arrived
et the gangway he wee able to

"Why, I suppose it's all right," he
returned uneasily. "You have a—er—

"Permit!" she exclaimed uncompre-
hendingly. Tom's fears were realized;
she had none, and he groaned inward-
ly—"I don't understand."
He all at once felt as unhappy as
Mercer looked. Wheeling upon that
gentleman, he snapped in an under-
tone: "Beat it!" and the first Officer
and the two sailors vanished with as-
tonishing agility.
"You see," once more addressing the
girl, "it's this way: Last thing Mr.
Willard told me before he went down-
town himself was that nobody was to
come aboard or go ashore without his
express consent. Mr. Brownlow in-
structed me to the same effect. Now,
if you haven't something to show that.
it's all right, you see what a fix you
are placing me in, don't you?"
The girl straightened, and Tom
could feel the angry glance that swept
him. Ile looked helplessly off toward
the landing, conspicuous under the
blaze of electric bulbs, with a faint
hope that blax Willard would appear'
and end the situation; but there was
no sign of him.
"Captain Phinney"—her tones were
now biting—"am 1 to understand that
you will not allow me to go to—go
ashore simply because I haven't a
scrap of paper from a person who has
no control whatever over my move-
ments? It's too absurd! You are
downright insulting to demand such a
thing when you have my word that it
is perfectly proper for me to go."
Tom squirmed miserably.
"Maybe I didn't express myself very
welt—" he began.
"You did not, indeed!" she indig-
nantly agreed. "It's highly important
—but 1'11 not trouble to explain, I

The unfortunate skipper's predica-
ment, as they say in newspapers, "can
be better imagined than described,"
During a silence that seemed age -long,
his mind remained an utter blank; he
was sensible of a numbness stealing
over him, and of a most outlandish de•
sire to swear.
� To tell the truth, he so
nearly let slip a shaft of heated pro-
fanity that his tongue was at last
loosened.
DeIia," he pleaded in desperation,
"listen to me a moment. On shipboard
orders are orders, and they are meant
for just one thing—to be obeyed. The
practice is so ingrained in every sea-
faring man that he never even thinks
of shirking or compromising. Can't
you at least wait a little bit until Mr.
Willard comas? I don't doubt but that
it will be all right."
She was now angry through and

She stamped a foot.
"Don't call me that name!" she
!stormed—"don't you dare! I detest
it! Besides, it's rude and impertinent
;and ungentlemanly in you to take such
a liberty." She moved quickly into
!the gangway. "If you won't, I will.

MtIechanically he reached forth a
hand and caught her arm. And with
the contact It was as .if a miracle had
happened for him; his discomposure
'left him, and all timidity and irresolu-

both her hands in his. Sud-
denly she began pulling and tugging
in a furious but vain effort to loosen
hie grasp.
"You—you wretched, miserable, ir-

There is no way of ascertaining how
'this episode would have ended had it
been permitted to continue its natural
!course. Perhaps it had already ended:
1,As far. as this irate young lady was
concerned, perhaps' It was all over
!with Tom, and he was properly brand -
led an outcast and a pariah. However
Ithat may bo, rightatthis juncture
;there came an interruption suflleiently
startling to jolt both, of them from
even so absorbing a situation as the
:resent one.
. e
' From somewhere forward, -without
the slightest warning, there broke
'forth a nolee of scuffling and of a man
cursing. The intent behind the tumult
was so sinister and so wickedly puts
'poseful, teat, in terror, tbe girl in-
stinctively shrank close to Tom. I -Ie
passed a protecting arm about 'her,
and bothstared intently•forward, try-
ing to penetrate the gloom.
The scuffling and swearing ceased as
abruptly as it had begun. Next in-
stant they heard a resounding splash,
the thrilling cry of "man overboard!"
Which was immediately followed by a
'second loud splash.
The two raced forward to find most
of the crewegatliered at the port rail,
over which they were leaning and
peering excitedly into the river. Tom
was not so distm•bed that he failed to
notice how his companion clung to his
arm. He gave the hand a Iittle
squeeze and drew her closer.
"What's the trouble here?" he de-
manded. "Where's Mr. Mercer?"
Winnard, the vicarious second mate,
pointed down toward the water.
"There, sir," he replied. "A fellow.
wanted to jump overboard—the blame
fool—and Mr. Mercer tried to hold
him. Before anybody could help him,
the man knocked hire down and went
over the rail. Mr. Mercer went right
over after him."
.Already life -buoys had been tossed
to the struggling pair in the water, and
a boat was being rapidly lowered. Tom
glanced over the faces in the dim star-
light,
"Who was the man?" he asked.
A moment's silence, then some one
spoke up: "The big fellow called Cal -
lis, sir."
"Lively, men!" Tom shouted. "He
can't swim!"
CHAPTER V.
Delia Goes Ashore.
The boat was quickly guided by
Mercer's ahonte to the point where the
two men had drifted down -stream.
With one arm hooked over a lifebuoy,
he was sustaining with the other hand
the limp form of John Callis, who ap-
peared to be unconscious. A minute
or two later both bedraggled figures
were upon deck.
The first officer, finding that his cap-
tain was obdurate in the matter of
"just one jolt" to drive out the chill
that had entered into his vitals, spat
out an oath and reminded Tom that he
might have swum ashore instead of
wasting his energies upon a surly beg-
gar like Califs,
"I take it for granted," was the
sharp retort, "that you have more
sense of your duty than to do such a
thing—or to stand here rag-ehewing
with your superior, either. What's
the matter with the fellow? He hasn't
had time to drown."
Mercer cast a scowling look at
the limp form outstretched upon the
deck,
"I don't know," he replied, "unless
he struck his head upon something
floating in the water—a plank, likely.
He's bleeding like a stuck pig. I hope
to hell he broke his neck!"
Alter the expression of this kindly
sentiment in behalf of the injured
man, Mr. Mercer hastened away after
a dry change, and Callls was carried to
his berth, where an ugly scalp wound
was neatly dressed by Hewitt's adept
lingers.
Delia had already retired to her own
room,
and Tom stood watching the
steward,
I don't like the looks of it, captain,"
.said the latter. "He ought to have a
doctor. His skull may be cracked,"
"If Mr. Willard doesn't show up
pretty soon," announced Tom, "I'll
take the liberty of fetching one."
But at that very instant a shout from
above told hint that the charterer had
;been sighted upon the landing, and a
Yew seconds later he heard the launch
;chugging shoreward.
As he re-entered the eahin a door
opened and Delia came !'award him,

DR. WOOD'S
NORWAY PINE SYRUP
CURED HIM.
Mr. Wallace H. Grange, Vancouver,
B.C., writes: "During a cold spell heti
about the middle of last October (1913),
I caught a cold which got worse despite
all treatments I could obtain, until
about November 22nd, a friend said,
' Why not try Dr. Wood's Norway
Pine Syrup?' Really, I had no faith in
It at the time as 1 had tried nearly every
other remedy I had heard of, to no avail,'
but. I thought I would give this last
remedy a trial. I purchased a 00 cent
bottle,and in three days Ys I was feeling
a different man. My cold was so hard,
and the coughing so prolonged, that
vomiting occurred after a hard spell of
coughing. I carried the bottle in ter
pocket,and everytime Iwas seized with xed 'th

I can most heartily recommend Dr.

with a severe cold, as its powers are most
marvelous, and I never intend being

MORE FOOD WANTED
Greater P,odaction Per Acre and
More 'Pounds Per Animal
The call is, for more ,food. The
first thing that suggests itself is in-
creased acreage, Let us have an.
other million or two acres el wheat,
many people say. The worst thing
t7 t could .a cd ha en
to Canadian nar.iatt snit-
culture would be the attempting of
too much—t111 spreading out of labsr
to its dissipation, 10,000,000 acres of
wheat producing 20 bushels to the
acre will give more crop than 12,000,
000 acres producing 15 bushels to tite
acre. It would mean 20;000,000 bushels
more produced at less cost. Whet
we want to understand is that i; .s
millions of bushels, not millions' of
aeras that is called for; more milk
and butter and cheese, rather: than
more cows, It is a day when 1,8
economized use of labor will tel!,
Farmers ,must keep their feet and not
be stampeded by high prices. Tiiere
is great danger of the busybody rush-
ing about so fast that he does not
do real wcrk. True patriotism calls
foe clear thinking and wise planning.
Nothing but the best that can be done
should be aimed at. A good seed bed
and good seed are.worth more to the
farmer and to the Empire than a fete
more acres. If he can increase his
acres and farm well at the same
time, all the better. Then the next
danger comes from the temptation to
rush off into something new. There
should be no novelties in this cam-
paign. The cid lesson, the old .teach-
ing is of more importance to -day than
over before. We shall do wells to
stick to the lines that are proven in
our districts. All kinds of food are
demanded. No new experiments
should be tried. All that is asked is
for the farmers to start in now and
put into practice what the experts
and the successful farmers have been
teaching these years past.
The farmer who quietly, honestly,
determinedly lays his plans for more
wheat, more oats, more milk, more
beef, more flax, more of almost any-
thingthat he knows best how to grow,
will be doing his duty, he will be
contributing what he alone can con-
tribute and lie will be helping in the
fight, for, as Napoleon said: "An
army fights on itr, stomach."
Let us remember that it is more
bushels per acre, more pounds of
milk per cow, more pounce of meat
per animal that will count, and that
will mean more total food per farm.—
C. C. James, Commissioner of Agri-
culture.
FIGi1TlN FOR CORM
Constant and Savage Warfare Attends
Gathering of it
There are few things which demand
a heavier toll of lives than camphor.
The reason for this Is that the moun-
tainous parts of the island of For-
mosa, from which ti e world gots most
of its camphor are i:iliabited by head-
hunting savages whom the successive
invaders of the island have been un-
able to subdue.
These, savages are quite alive to
the value of the camphor trees and
fiercely oppose all attempts to get
possession of the forests. Their hos-
tility makes the gathering of cam-
phor a most Hazardous occupation,
.and one in which a loaded rifle le the
most indispensable tool.
Since the Japanese took the island
after theirsnccessfulcampaign against
China in the 'nineties, they have been
carrying on a carefully conceived plan
of gradual penetration of the valuable
camphor regions. They make paths
six feet in width through the virgin
forests. At intervals of every 120
yards stands a guard -house, and every
fourth or fifth guard -house is a small
fort, entrenched and defended by
barbed wire entanglements. Tele-
phone intercommunication, machine
guns, and all the resources of Western
military science are employed, and
the lines are pushed gradnaily for-
ward.
Floating Islands
At Yamagata, Japan, there is a
small lake called the Lake of the
Floating Islands, which contains at
times as many as sixty islands that
change their position constantly. The
islands, which move first one way and
then the other, start from masses of
vegetable debris that are carried to
the surface b,, bubbles of gas; reeds
soon .grow on these masses in such
quantity that they ,sometimes become
top-heavy and overture. In that case
the reeds grow on the l9ewly exposed
side, until the islands have become
so deep and wide that they will no
longer'turn oyes. Professor Kusakabe
of the Tohoku Imperial University,
and several associates have investi-
gated the mysterious movements of
these floating islands, and they found
out that the combined action of cur-
rents of air and water is what makes
the islands move. t
