"Now, pour away, Master Cup." said Pathfinder; "I've made my nark on the biaekguarlls; and we shall have no more fires lighted to -night.' "Scaldings!" cried Cap. upsetting the barrel. with a care that at once and completely extinguished the flames. This ended the singular conflict; and the remainder of the night pass - eel In peace. Pathfinder and Cap sat - shed alternately, though neither can be said to have slept. Sleep indeed scarcely seemed necessary to them, for both were accustomed to pro- tracted wntehings; and there were seasons and times when the former appeared to be literally insensible to the demands of hunger and thirst and callous to the ef'feets of fatigue. Mabel watched by het' father's pal- let, and began to feel how much our 1ra11piness in this world depends even on things that are imaginary. Hitherto she had virtually lived without a father, the counect.iOu with her remaining parent being ideal rather titan positive; but now that she was about to lose him, she thought, for 1110 moment that the world would be 11 void after his death and that she could never be ace, qua(tnt'1 with happiness again. • CHAPTER XXV As the light 101111netl, Pathfinder and ('ap ascended again to 11te roof, with a view to ree•ounoit•e the state o1' things once more on the. island.
