CHAPTER XXV Continued,
"Oh," was all sho replied; but I
could havo sworn thero was a noto of
disappointment In her volco.
But "my woman, my mato" kept
ringing In my head for tho rest of
tho day and for many days. Yet novor
did It ring moro loudly than that
night, as I watched her draw back
tho blanket of mow from tho coals,
blow up tho flro, and cook tho ovonlng
meal. It must hate been latent say
agory stirring Jn mo, for tho old
words, so bound up with tho roots of
tho raco, to grip mo and thrill mo.
And grip and thrill thoy did, till I
fell asloop, murmuring them to myself
ever and over again.
It was a dark and evil-appearing
thing, that hut, not fit for aught hotter
than swlno in a civilized land; but for
hb, who had known tho misery of the
opon boat, it was a snug llttlo habita
tion. Following tho housowarmlng,
which was accomplished by means of
seal-oil and a wlok mado from cotton
calking, came tho hunting for our win
ter's nu&t and tho building of tho
soeond but. It was a simple affair,
now, to go forth In tho morning and
return by noon with a boatload of
Seals. And then, while I worked at
building tho hut, Maud trlod out the
oil from tho blubber and kept a slow
flro under tho frames of moat. I had
heard of Jerking beof on tho plains,
and our seal moat, out in thin strlpB
and hung in the aTaoko, cured excel
lently. Tho eocond hut was easier to orect,
for I built It against tho first, and only
throe walls woro roquirod. But it was
work, hard work, All of it, Maud and
I workod from dawn till dark, to tho
limit of our strength, so that whon
night came we crawlod stiffly to bod
and slopt tho anlmnl-llko sloop of ex
haustion. And yet Maud declared that
sho hod novor folt hotter or Btrongor
In hor life. I know this was truo of
mysolf, but hor was such n Illy
strength that I fonrdd sho would break
down. Ofton and often, hor last re

Stretched flat on hor back on tho sand
in tho way sho had of resting and re

utrongth was tbo marvol to mo.
1 "Think of tho long rost this wlntor,"
wan her reply to my remonstrances.
Why, we'll bo r.lnniorous for some
thing to do."
Wo hold a housowarmlng In my hut
tho night it wm roofod
i It was a plnneant ovonlng indeed,
and wo voted that as a social function
on Bndeavor Island it had not yet
been eclipsed. Our minds woro at
oaso. Not only had wo rcslgnod our
solves to tho bitter wlntor, but we
wore prepared for It. Tho seals could
depart on tliolr mysterious Jounioy
Into tho south nt any tlmo, now, for
all wo carod; and tho storms hold no
terror for us, Not only woro wo Buro
of being dry and wnrm and sholtorod
from tho wind, bet wo had tho softest
nnd moot luxurious mattresses that
could bo made frtm moss. This had
boon Maud's Idea, and sho had horsolf
joaloualygathoroQ nil tho moss. This
was to bo my tint night on tho mat
tress, and I know 1 should sleep the
swootor bocnuso tho had mado it.
As sho roso to go sho turned to
mo with tho whimsical way sho had;
and said:
"Somothlng Is going to happen Is
happening, for that matter.- 1 fool it
Something ls-comlng here, to us. It Is
coming now. I don't know what, but
It Is coming."
"Oood or bad?" I asked.
Bho shook her " don't kaow,

tea and wind,
"It's a leo shoro," I laughod, "and
I am Buro I'd rnthor bo hero than ar
riving, a night lilto this."
"You aro not frightened?" 1 aBked

"And you fool well? perfectly woll?"
"Novor bettor," wob her answor,

Tills ubo of our given names had
como qulto as a matter of courso, and
was as unpremeditated aa It was nat
ural. In that moment I could havo
put my arms around her and drawn
her to mo, 1 should certainly havo
dona so out In that world to which wo
bolongcd. As It was, tho situation
stopped thoro In tho only way It could;
but I was loft alono in my little hut,
glowing warmly through and through
with a pleasant satisfaction; and I
know that a tlo, or a tacit somothlng,
existed between us which had not ox
lstcd beforo.
CHAPTER XXVI.
I awoko, oppressed by a mysterious
sonsntlon. Thoro seemed something
missing In my environment. But tho
mystory and oppressiveness vanished
aftor tho first fow seconds of waking,
when I identliled tho missing somo
thlng as tho wind. When I had
dressed and openod tho door, I heard
tho wavos still lapping on tho beach,
garrulously attesting tho fury of tho
night. I had slept late, and I stopped
outsldo with sudden energy, bent upon
making up lost tlmo as befitted a
dwollor on Endeavor Island.
And when outsldo, I stopped short.
I bollovcd my oyes without question,
and yet I was for tho moment stunnod
by what thoy disclosed to mo. There,
on tho beach, not fifty feet away, bow
on, dismasted, was a black-hulled ves
sel. Masts and boomj, tangled with
shrouds, sheets, nnd rent canvas, woro
rubbing gontly alongside. I could
havo rubbed my eyos as I looked.
Thero was tho home-made galloy wo
had built, tho familiar break of tho
poop, tho low yacht-cabin scarcely
rising abovo tho rail. It was tho
Ghost.
It camo upon mo suddonly, . s
strange, that nothing movod aboard.
Wearied from tho night of strugglo
nnd wrock, all hands woro yet asleep.
Maud and I might yet escape, I would
call hor and start. My hand was lift-,
od at hor door to knock, whop I rocol-'
lectod tho smallnosa of tho Island.
Wo could novor hldo ourselves upon
it. Thero was nothing for us but tho
wido raw ocean. I thought of our snug
llttlo huts, our BuppllcB of meat and
oil and niOBB and firewood, and I know
that wo could novor survive tho wintry
It Was tho Ghost.
Boa and tho great storms which woro
to como.
And then, in a flush, tho bettor solu
tion enmo to mo. All handB woro
nBleop. Why not creop aboard tho
Qhost woll I know tho way to Wolf
L.nrson'8 bunk and kill him In his
sloop7 After that woll, wo would
see. But with him doasl thoro wan
tlmo nnd spaco In which cb propnro to
do other things; and besides, what-
over now situation aroso, It could not
possibly bo worso than tho present
ono.
My knife was at my hip. I returned
to my hut for tho shotgun, mado euro
it was loaded, and wont down to tho
Ghost. With somo difficulty, nnd at
tho expense of a wotting to tho waist,
I climbed aboard. Tho fordcastlo scut
tlo was opon. I paused to ltston for
tho breathing of tho men, but thoro
was no broathlng. I cautiously do
sconded tho ladder. Tho plaoo had
tho empty and musty fool nnd smoll
usual to a dwelling no longer Inhab
ited. Evorywhoro was a thick llttor
of tho worthless forocastlo duunago
of a long voyago. I noted that tho
boats woro missing, Tho steerago
told tho same talo as tho forocastlo
Tho hunters had packed their bolong
ings with Blmtlar hasto, Tho Qhost
was deserted.
Tho reaction from my fear, and tho
knowlodgo that tho terrlblo dood I
had como to do was no longer nocoa
snry, mado mo boyish and eager.
sprang up tho break of tho poop, and
saw Wolf Larson. What of my Im
potUB and tho stunning surprise, 1
clattered three or four stops along tho
deck before I could stop myself. Ho
was standing in the compauionway,
only his head and shoulders vlalblo,
Blaring straight at mo. Ills arms woro
resting on tho hnlf-opon slide. Ho
mado no movemont whatovor simply
stood thero, staring at mo.
I began to '.ramble. Tho old stom
ach sickness clutched mo, I put ono
hand on tho edgo of tho houso to
steady mysolf. My lips seemed sud
denly dry and I moistened them
against tho need of speech. Nor did
I for nn instant tako my eyos off him.
Neither of us spoko. Thero was somo
thlng ominous In his silence, his Im
mobility. All my old fear of him ro
turned and by new foar was Increased
n hundred fold. And still wo Btood,
tho pair of us, staring at each other.
I was awaro of tho demand for ac
tion, and, my old holplessness Btrong
upon mo, I was watting for him to
tako tho Initiative. Then, as tho mo
ments wont by, It was at last Im
pressed upon mo that I was thoro, not
to havo Wolf Larscn tako tho Initia
tive, but to tako It myself.
I cocked both barrels and lovoled
tho shotgun at him. Had ho moved,
attempted to drop down tho compan
ion wny, I know I would havo shot
him. But ho Btood motlontess and
staring as beforo. And as I facod
him, with leveled gun shaking in my
hands, I had tlmo to noto tho worn
and haggard appearanco of his faco.
It was as If somo strong anxiety had
wasted It. Tho cheeks were sunken,
and there was a wearied, puckered
oxprcsslon on tho brow. And It
seemed to mo that his oyes wero
strange, not only tho oxprcsslon, but
tho physical seeming, as though tho
optic nerves and supporting muscles
had suffered strain and slightly twist
ed tho eyeballs.
All this I saw, and my brain now
working rapidly, I thought a thousand
thoughts; and yet I could not pull tho
triggers. I lowered tho gun and
stopped to tho corner of tho cabin,
primarily to roliovo the tension on
my nerves nnd to maUo a now start,
and Incidentally to be closer. Again I
raised tho gun. Ho was almost at
arm's length. Thero was no hopo for
him. I wns resolved. Thoro was no
posslblo chanco of missing him, no
matter how poor my marksmanship.
And yet I wrestled with myself nnd
could not pull tho triggers.
"Well?" ho demanded Impatiently.
I strovo vainly to forco my fingers
down on tho triggers, and vainly I
strovo to Bay somothlng.
"Why don't you shoot?" ho askod.
I cleared my throat of a husklnoss
which provented speech.
"Hump," ho Bald slowly, "you can't
do It. You aro not exactly afraid. You
aro impotent. Your conventional
morality 1b stronger than you. You
aro tho slave to tho opinions which
havo crcdenco among tho peoplo you
havo known and havo read about
Tholr codo has been drummed Into
your head from tho tlmo you lisped,
and in spite of your philosophy, and
of what I havo taught you, It won't lot
you kill an unarmed, unresisting man."
"I know it," I said hoarsely.
"And you know that 1 would kill an
unarmod man as readily as I would
smoko a cigar," ho went on. "You
know mo for what I am my worth
in tho world by your standard. You
havo called mo snake, tiger, shark,
monster, and Caliban. And yot, you
llttlo rag puppet, you llttlo echoing
mechanism, you aro unablo to kill mo
-ns you would a snako or a shark, bo-
causo I havo hands, feet, and a body
shaped somewhat llko yours. Bah!
I had hoped bettor things of you,
Hump."
Ho slopped out of tho companion-
way and camo up to mo.
"Put down that gun. I want to
ask you somo questions. I havon't
had a chanco to look around yet
What placo Is this? How Is tho
Qhost lying? How did you got horo?
Whoro's Maud? I bog your pardon,
Miss -Browstor or should I say, 'Mrs.
Van Woydon'?"
I hud backed away from him, al
most weeping at my inability to shoot
him, but not fool enough to put down
tho gun. I hoped, desporatoly, that
ho might commit somo hostile act, at
tempt to strlko mo or choko mo; for
in such way only I know I could bo
stirred to shoot.
"This is Endeavor island." I said.
"Novor hoard of 11," ho broko In.
"At least, that's our namo for it," I
amended.
"Our?" ho queried. "Who's our?"
"Miss Browstor nnd myself. And
tho Ghost is lying, as you can soo for
yoursolf, bow on to tho beach."
"Thero nro seals hero," ho said.
Thoy woko mo up with tholr barking,
or I'd bo sleeping yet. I heard them
whon I drove in last night Thoy woro
tho first warning that I was on a loo
shoro. It's a rookory, tho kind of a
thing I'vo hunted for years. Thanks
to my brother Death, I've llghtod on
a fortuno. It's a mint What's its
bearings?"
"Haven't tho least idea," I said
"But you ought to know qulto closely.
What wero your last observations?'
Ho smiled inscrutably, but did not
nnswor.
"Woll, whoro's nil hands?" 1 asked.
"How does It como that you aro
alono 7"
I was prepared for him again to
sot asldo my question, and was sur
prised at tho roadlness of his roply.
"My brother got mo Insldo forty
olght hours, nnd through no fault of
mlno. Boarded mo In tho night with
only tho watch on dock. Hunters wont
back on mo. Ho gavo them a bigger
lay. Hoard him offering it. Did it
right beforo mo. Of courso tho crow
gavo mo tho go-by. That was to bo
expected. All hands wont over tho
sldo, and thoro I was, marooned on
my own vossol. It was Death's turn,
and it's all In tho family anyway."
"But how did you lose tho masts?"
I asked,
"Walk ovor and oxnmlno thoso lan
yards," ho suld, pointing to whoro tho
mlzzcn rigging should havo boon.
"Thoy havo boon cut with a knife!"
I exclaimed,
"Not qulto," ho laughod. "It was a
neater job. Look -again."
1 looked, Tho lanyards had been al
most sovorod, with just enough left to
hold tho shrouds till somo sovoro
strain should bo put upon them,
"Cooky did that," ho laughed again.
"I know, though I didn't spot him at
It. Kind of evoncd up tho score a
bit"
"Good for Mugrldgo!" I cried.
"Yes, that's what I thought whon
ovcrythlng wont over tho sldo. Only
I said It on tho other sldo of my
mouth."
"But what woro you doing whllo ill
this was going on?" I askod.
"My best, you may uo suro, which
wasn't much undor the circum
stances." I turned rc-oxamlno Thomas
Mugrldgo's work.
"I guess I'll sit down and tako tho
sunshine," I heard Wolf Larson say
ing. Thoro was a hint, Just a slight hint,
of physical feebleness In Ills volco,
and it wns so strange that I looked
quickly nt him. His hand was sweep
ing nervously across his face, as
though ho were brushing away cob
webs. I was puzzled. Tho wholo
thing was so unliko tho Wolf Larsen
had known.
"How nro your headachos?" I asked.
"Thoy still trouble mo," was his an
swor. "I think I havo ono coming
on now.
Ho slipped down from his sitting
posturo till ho lay on tho deck. Then
he rollod over on his sldo, his head
resting on tho biceps of tho under
arm, the forearm shielding his eyes
from tho sun. I stood regarding him
wonderlngly.
"Now's your chanco, Hump," ho said.
"I don't understand," I lied, for I
thoroughly understood.
"Oh, nothing." ho ndded softly, as
If ho woro drowsing; "only you've not
me where you want me."
"No, I havon't," I retorted; "for I
want you a fow thousand miles away
from hero."
He chuckled, and thereafter spoko
no moro. Ho did not stir as I passed
by him and went down into tho cabin.
I lifted tho trap in the floor, but for
somo moments gazed dubiously into
tho darkness of tho lazaretto beneath.
I hesitated to descend. What if his
lying down were a ruso? Pretty, in-
deed, to bo caught thero llko a rat
I crept softly up tho companlonwny
and peoped at him. Ho was lying
as I had loft him. Again I vent bo-
low; but beforo I dropped into the
lazaretto I took tho precaution of cast
ing down tho door In advance. At
least there would bo no lid to tho trap.
But It was nil needless. I regained
tho cabin with a store of jams, soa-
biscuits, canned meats, and such
things all I could carry and re
placed the trap door.

HOW NERVES CONTROL HABIT
System Must Be Trained to Follow
Called-For Motions Along a
Certain Path.
Thoso who think 1 habit is Just
something you remember that is, Ifl
purely a mental proposition, aro mis
taken. Habit Is a question of mechan
ics as much as tho smooth drawing
of a piston rod.
Habit is tho action of nervo mo
tions along a beaten path. A muscle
somowhero in tho body contracts and
a nerve moves because it cannot help
It, and so on until tho process Is
complete, nnd tho thing wo call habit
Is done.
Thero aro as many of theso paths
In tho norvous systom as thero are
habits. Tho Impression which one
nervo center recolvos awakens another
and tho wholo path of tho action la
traveled ovor.
Tho first tlmo tho action is per
formed tho nervo contore do not awak
en their successors readily. For
this reason somo things aro hard to
loarn. Everything that employs a
great many nervo centers Is bard to
loarn, because tho path must bo worn,
tho nervo centers trained to act In
sequence. Onco thoy aro trained the
habit Is formed. Tho second call upon
them Is easier than tho first, tho third
cnsler than tho second, etc.
Quite 80.
Mr." Harry Tato, who Is to appear In

Seeing a number of Bmall boys bus
ily engaged in asking ono another rid'

"Tlmo it wns taken to tho clock-

Tho French possession of Indo-Chtna

310,000 Bquaro miles. Tho population
is estimated at 18,000,000, of which
about 36,000 nro Europoans, tho rest

Thoro aro now 1,378 tnllos of railroad

PREPARING A DAIRY HEIFER
Kindness and Gentle Handling Will
Remedy Kicking Habit Halter
break While Young.
You must havo foresight In prepar
ing tho dairy heifer for hor first milk
ing period. If you handle tho udder
and teats so as to develop tho udder,
doing this at least twlco a week for
bIx or eight weeks beforo calving, tho
helfor will then bo quiet and gcntlo
nnd will not bo afraid when hor uddor
is touched after Bho has calved. Also
her udder will be devoloped so that it
will almost resomblo n cow's uddor.
It is natural for tho cow to stand
whllo being milked, consequently tho
heifer knows nothing about kicking
until hurt or frightened into it. It is
a good plan to haltorbroak n heifer
when sho Is young, always bolng care
ful not to hurt or frighten her. If by
accident anything should bo done to
cause tho holfer to kick it is not tho

part of wisdom to punlBh her for kick
ing.
Kindness and gentle bundling is the
only remedy. If ono lots his reasoning
for tho causo bo based upon tho prin
ciple that sho never kicked until shu
wan Injured, tho remedy will at onco
suggest itself. No cow was over brok
en of kicking by striking with
tho stool or anything else. That prac

and as ono comes near hor with the
stool Bho uses nature's defense and
kicks.
CLEANLINESS OF THE CHURN
Rinsing Out With Warm Water Will
Remove Any Particles of Butter
milk Remaining In Wood.
After tbo butter is taken from tho
churn, tho latter should bo rinsed cut
with warm water, and tho rinsing fol
lowed by a thorough washing with
very hot water. Tho rinsing out with
warm water will remove any butter
milk which may remain in tho pores of
the wood. Tho hot water will remove
any fat which may bo left in tho
churn.
It is never well to use soap powders'
on the interior of the churn, but tho
occasional use of a small amount of
dairy washing powder or llmo water is
beneficial. To keep tho churn sweet
nnd free from odors and taints a small
handful of llmo placed in soma water
In tho churn or In tho Inst rinsing of
tho churn Is very effective. It is very
essential In good butter making to see
that all apparatus used is absolutoly
clean and freo from undesirable odors
and taints, as these aro quickly ab
sorbed by tho butter.
PROPER LOCATION FOR SILO
Huge Receptacles Should Be Placed as
Near Animals to Be Fed as Pos
sible to Save tabor.
Silos should bo located closo to tho
animals to be fed from them, accord
ing to tho Oregon agricultural collego
plans.
Thoy should not bo insldo the barn
since thoy take up a good deal of
room and may glvo off offonslve odors
that will taint tho milk.
Thoy would also bo inconvenient to

may most readily be refilled.
It requires about a quarter of a ton
of ensllago dally to food twclvo cowb
oach forty pounds a day, so that tho
sllago should not havo to bo movod
any farthor than Is necessary.
CONSTRUCTION OF PIT SILOS
Builders Must Be Careful About Plas

most Importance.
Builders of pit silos should be care- S
ful about tho cement plastorlng. Moko

2& parts Portland cement, in two
