CAU3E AND EFFECT
Good Digestion Follows Right Food.
Indigestion and tho attondant dis
comforts of mind and body aro cor
tain to follow continued use of Improp
er food.
Those who aro still young and
robust aro likely to overlook tho fact
that, as dropping water will wear a
Btono away at last, so will tho uso of
hoavy, greasy, rich food, finally causo
loss of appetite and Indigestion.
Fortunately many aro thoughtful
enough to study thomaolvos and note
tho prlnclplo of Causo and Effect in
their dally food. A N. Y. young wom
an writes her experience thus:
"Sometime ago I had a lot of troublo
from indigestion, caused by too rich
food. I got so I was unablo to di
gest scarcely anything, nnd medicines
seemed useless.
f,A friend advised mo to try Grapo
Nuts food, praising it highly, and as
a last resort I tried It. I am thankful
to say that Grapo-Nuts not only ro
llovod mo of my trouble, but built mo
up nnd strengthened my dlgostlvo or
gans bo that I can now eat anything I
deslro. But I stick to Grapo-Nuts."

CHAPTER V. Continued.
I presumed likely that I understood
moro mnybo that ho thought I did.
Headache Is a fair to middling excuso,
but I Judged thero was other things.
I'd seen them two look at each othor
when thoy met, and woll, they Bny
a nod's as good as a wink to n blind
horse, and I ain't blind. I made a sort
of note In my mind to get tho pumps
to working ngaln on Lord Jamea next
tlmo I got a chance at him alone.
Hartley left rao nnd went ovor to
tho railroad depot and I kept on
down tho rond to tho shore. I was
loafing along, going over to mysolf
tho doings of tho afternoon and won
dering what Van Brunt would say and
so on, whon I come out Into tho clear
placo at tho top of Meeting House hill.
And tho meeting house clock struck
four.
I Jumped like I'd set down on a
hot stove. I hadn't no Idea It was as
late as that. Tho pig and tho Pago
girl and the rest of the mix-up had put
all notion of tlmo out ot my head. I
yanked out my watch to mako suro
that that clock was right, and then
I glanced at the sky. Over to tho
oast'ard a big, fat, gray fog bank was
piling up. 'Twas high water at two,'
Eastwlch Port covo Is a nasty placo to
got out of at low tide, and hero was an
easterly fog coming.
As a general thing I don't take any
body's wash when It comes to han
dling a boat or looking out for weather
and such, but now I was ready to
sing smnll. A ten-year-old boy brought
up along shore would havo known bet
tor than to do us I'd dono. Don't inaku
no odds how good an excuso I had for
forgetting; no excuso Is good where it
comes to sallbontlng. I went down
that hill like the man In tho tin cof
fin wont to Tophet, "cllnketty Jingle."
I Jumped fences nnd cut across lots,
and I'm ready to Bwear right now that
there's moro horse briars to tho Bquare
inch in EaBtwlch Port than in any oth
er place on tno ixras green carin.
f bust through tho pines and come out
on the beach yelling: "Hi I Turn out,
ovorybody! Got aboard now. Live
ly!" And, by time! there wa'n't a bouI In
sight. For no less thnn twenty-two1
and a half minutes by my watch I
walked up and down that beach, see
ing tho tldo go out and hollering
"Ahoy!" and "Whore are you?" at
tho top of my lungs. And then, lo
and behold you, horo comes Van
Brunt nnd Lord James, poking along
uf. if thoy had all tho time thoro was.
Van had been over behind tho point
taking a swim and his lordship had
gone along to set on his boss' trous
ers and keep the creases In, or some
such mighty Important Job.
"All right, skipper; all right,"
diawls Van, cool as a Sunday school
boy at an ico cream sociable. "You've
got good lungs and you'd ought to bo
careful of 'em. I'vo heard you whoop
ing for tho last ten minutes. What
4R1 you and Martin havo whon you
wore up town? By tho way, where is
Martin?"
Ho was so everlasting comfortable
and sassy nnd I was so bllmg hot and
norvous that It mado mo mad.
"He's gone homo on tho train," I
snappod out. "Got a headache."
"Headache, oh? Humph! What
did you have up town and where did
you get It?"
"Never mind whoro wo got it," says
I. "You'll get a hoadacho from setting
up stuck on a shoal all night if you
don't get aboard that boat Look at
them clouds."
Ho looked at 'em. "Ah," ho says;
"vory like a whale."
I didn't know what ho meant and I
didn't care.
"Whale I" Bays I. "Woll, we'll bo
lucky if wo ain't the Jonahs. Got
aboard with' that basket, you Oppor
what's-your-namo, will you; if you
want to fotch port to-night."
Lord James looked like ho'd like to
put another '"cad" on mo, but his boss
was round and ho dnssent talk back.
Between us wo loaded tho dunnage.
Thon Van got aboard, deliberate
onough to try a parson's patlonce, and
I enst loose and got sail on tho Dora
Bassctt Wo'd mado a start, anyhow.
But it turned out that was all wo'd
made. Van commenced to ask mo
moro about Hartley, and afore I could
tell him tho nows about tho pig raco
and tfc rest, the Dora Bassott run her

noso on a sand flat nnd thero she
stuck. I was afraid of that tide all
along.
I tried to got hor off with tho onr,
but 'twas no go. Then I pullod tho
skiff alongside tho ono wo'd been
towing nstorn and got into that and
tried that way. But that wouldn't
work cither. Finally I Jumped over
board up to my waist and thon I got
hor off.
But she stuck ngaln aforo wo got
out of tho cove. I splashed and
shoved nnd worked for another half
hour or so, tho wind dying out and tho
fog drifting In. Tlmo I got hor afloat
this tlmo and had listened to a steady
stretch of Van Brunt's lazy sarcasms,
my tompor was worn to shoostrlngs.
Consnrn tho man! It didn't scorn to
mako no diffcrenco to him whether he
got homo that night or a wook from
then.
Wo got out of thnt blessed covo
and into tho channel somowheren
around six o'clock. Thon 'twas a dead
beat homo and tho breozo pretty nigh
gone. A fow minutes, nnd tho fog
shut down on us, wot and thick and
heavy as ever I sco it. Wo poked
along for an hour or so moro and
then 'twns 'most dark and wo wa'n't
half way to Wcllmouth. Lord James
In his usual position, hanging on to
tho ccnterhoard and moving Ills head
from ono side to t'other as lMio was
afraid of being hit when ho wa'n't
looking. I'd pretty nigh scalped him
with tho boom onco or twlco and
now ho ducked whenever tho tiller
squeaked. Ho certainly looked like
a statue of misery in n fountain, with
tho fog dripping oft his sldo-whtskers.
Van was stretched out on the locker,
"Put Your Helm Over to
blowing smoke rings and spouting
nnntiw T'rl linn. . Kitow in .nil lit... '
JUUblJ AU UUUU IUW UUOJ IU 1V11 ,11111
a word nbout his girl's bolng in the
neighborhood. Fact Is, I didn't like
tho feel of things. I believed thero was
wind coming.
"See hero," Bays I, finally, "ono of
you follcrsYU havo to go for'ard nnd
keep an eyo out for shoals. We're on
tho edgo of tho channel here and 1
want to bo in deop wator aforo a
squall hits us. I cal'lato there's ono
pretty nigh duo."
His lordship Just stared at me fishy
oyed and pitiful. As for Van, ho went
on reciting something nbout being on
tho sea, "with tho bluo abovo anil tho
blue below." He wa'n't going to stir
not him. -
"Look hero," I Bays. "If wo strike
a sand bar and n squall strikes us at
tho samo tlmo we'll go below, way
down, whero it's a big sight bluer
than 'tis here, 'cording to the minis
ter's toll. Go for'ard on lookout, won't
you?"
So ho went, though I doubt If ho'd
havo known a bar when ho hoo ono
not that kind anyway.
Pretty soon the breozo glvo out
altogether. And thon, from off In tho
distance I heard a nolso, a rushing,
roaring kind of nolso,
"Hark!" I yells. "Do you hear that?
Horo Bho comes! Down with tho Jib.
Haul on that ropo, Mr. Vnn, will you?
No, no I T'othor ono! T'other ono!
Godfrey scissors! Horo you Oppor;
hang on to that tiller! Keep her Just
as sho Is."
I made a long arm, grabbed that
valet man by tho collar, yanked htm
Into the sterushects and Jammed tho
tiller Into his hand. Then I took a
flying leap for'ard whero tho Twin
was trying to cast loose tho peak hat
Hard, having a notion, It seemed, th
It ought to belong to the Jib.
The squall struck u. The U,;
split into pieces, samo as a rotten
tops'l. The Dora Bassctt heeled ovor
till I thought she wan going on her
beam ends. Ills lordship turned loose
a yell like n tugboat whistle, Mb go
tho tiller and dives headfirst Into the
cockpit amidships, Ab for me, I waB
swinging ovor the Hldo with my whole
weight on the Jib downhaul, pawing
air with my feet, and trying to get
back my balance.
Thnt downhuul was old and some
rotten. It broke and I went overborn d
with a howl nnd a splash.
I went down far enough to begin to
sco glimpses of that blue place I was
speaking ot Just now. Then I pawed
up for air. Whon my head stuck out
of wator thero wns something big
and black swooping past It. I mndo
a grab and caught hold. As luck would
havo It 'twas the skiff we was towing
astern.
I climbed Into thnt skiff like a cat
up a tree. 1 was full of salt water
eyes and ull but I could sco tho Dorn
Bassctt flopping ahead of mo with her
gaff halfway down her mast. SectnR
the halliard had broken Just after tho
downhaul did.
I roared, a sputtering kind of roar.
And then Vun'B head stuck nut over
tho sloop's stern.
"God Hakosl" says he. "Aro you
drowned?"
"Drowned!" I hollers. "Think I'm
a pesky lubbor Just cause you" I
had to stop hero to cough. I wnn a
regulnr tnnk, as you might sny, of salt
water.
"Good heavens'." Bays Van. "Do
they always do that boats, I mean?"
"Always do " Iwassomudnt mysolf
and nil crentlon that I could scarcely
auswor. "Oh, Buffering mighty! If
over go to sea again wnn n parcel
or Catch a hold or that tiller! Bring
her Into the wind! Cast off thnt main
shcot! Cust It off! Hero comes
another one!"
I suppose malnshcots aro kind of
acarco on tho "Street." Anyhow I
sco thnt ho didn't know what I meant.
"That rope at tho Btcrn," I hollers,
dancing around in tho skiff. "Cast
It off! Lively!"
Tho second squall struck us. I see
fhe Dora Bassctt drive off in a swoop
lug half circle, the end of tho boom
knocking tho tops of tho waves to
pieces and the spray flying like a
Portl Port! You Lubber, Port!"
waterfall.
Anil, louder than tho wind
or anything else, I could hear Lord
James hollering for homo and mother.
But 'twan't till afterwards that I
rcmomborcd nny of this. Just then
I had other fish to fry. Thero was
two or three ropes at tho sailboat's
storn and Van had cast off ono of 'cm,
same ns I ordered.
Only, ns it happened, instead of tho
malnshcet ho'd cast off tho skiff's
pulntor. Mo and tho Dora Bassctt wub
parting company fast.
From out of tho dark ahead of mo
como a yell, louder oven thnn Lord
James' distress signals.
"Sol!" hollers Van Brunt. "Sol
Pratt!"
"Ay, ay!" I screams. "I'm all
right. Nover mind me. Put your helm
ovor to port."
"Port what?"
"Put your helm over to port !
Port! you lubbor! PORT!" My man
noru had gono overboard when I did
and they'd missed tho skiff.
Twas quiet for a minute. Then,
from further off comes tho screech:
"What part of the damn thing
Is port?"
"Nover mind!" I yells. "Keep hor
Just ns sho 1b. You'll fotch
up all right. Be'ttor (ako reof.
Slack that main sheet ! "
Then I bad to quit and grab up tho
oars and bring tho Bklff bow on to tho
seas. When I got her headed right I
couldn't seo nor hear nothing of tho
Dora Bassctt. As Major Philander
Phinney says when ho gets to tolling
how much better Gcnornl Grant would
havo dono If ho'd took his ndvlco, I
wns "disconnected with my bnso of
supplies."
CHAPTER VI.
Ozono Island.
. I was pretty busy for the next good
while 'tending to that skiff. And
scared, don't saj a word. Not scarod
for myself, you understand no, in
deed. When I got drowned, with n
tight plank undor mo nnd a pair or
onrs In my hand, 'twon't bo In tho bay,
I'll tell you that. But I was scared for
Van Brunt nnd his lordohlp In tho
Dorn BasBctt. Thoy didn't either of
'urn know tho Jib from tho rudder,
nnd tho vnlet was too crazy frightened
to he of nny uso If ho had.
But Van was sure to bo cool enough,
nnd tho broken gnff would net llko a
doublo reof, so that waa somo com
fort And tho Hqunll wa'n't going to
amount to nothing 'twaB only a fair
breczo even now so If Van had senso
enough to keop tho tiller straight and
lot hor run they'd fotch up somo
whercs alongshore, I Judged. And, to
mako mo hope still moro, tho squall
had brought a complcto chnngo of
wind with It; now 'twas blowing back
up tho bay Instead of out to Boa.
So I squared my shouldors and laid
to tho onrs, heading for whore, Judg
ing by tho wind, tho land ought to ba.
'Twas darker than a black kitten In
ti nigger's pockot, but I cal'latod to bo
ablo to hit tho broadside of tho United
Stntos somrwhorcB. I got nground on
tho Huts llvo or six times, but along
towards midnight I butted ashoro at
tho llttlo end of nowhere whero thoro
was nothing but bushes nnd sand and
pines, no sign of civilization. And by
this tlmo 'twas pouring rain.
After n couple of years of scratch
ing and swearing and falling down I
como out of tho scrub Into a. kind of
clearing. Then I discovered a barbod
wlro fenco by hanging up on It llko
n sheet on n lino and located tho back
of a barn by banging Into It with my
head. Thon a nlco talkatlvo dog como
out of tho ham and located mo, and
things commenced to liven up.
While mo nnd tho dog wero con
ducting our oxpcrlonco meeting, a
light showed in an upstairs window
n llttlo ways off and somobody stlckB
their head out nnd wants to know
what's tho matter.
"Who aro you?" ho says.
"My nnmo'a Pratt," soys I.
"Whoro aro you?"
"Well," I says, " Judging by the foel
and smell I'm on top ot tho pig-sty.
But I ain't real suro. I can toll you
whoro your dog io, If you want to
know."
"What aro you doing round hero
this tlmo or night?" ho says.
I told him as well as I could. Tho
(Jog was having a conniption fit, trying
to bark itself lnsldo out, and I had
to say things ovor thrco or four times
bo'b a body could hear. But tho feller
at the window wa'n't satisfied nvon
then. I nover boo Buch a wooden
head. "What Pratt did you Bay you waB?"
ho hollers.
I told him my namo and where I
hailed from.
"Sol Pratt?" he says. "Of Well
mouth? What aro you doing way
over horo?"
"Blast it all!" I yells. "If I wa'n'l
half drowned alroady I should say 1
was getting wot. Turn out and let a
fcllor Into tho kitchen or somowheres,
won't you? And tie up this everlasting
dog."
That seemed to wako him up some
and in ten minutes or bo ho come?
poking out with a lantern. I know
him then. 'Twas Ebonezor Holbrook
Huldy Ann Scuddor's sister's husband
who lives over in tho woods on the
lino botween South Eastwlch and
West Ostablo. There waa another
man with him and blest if It didn't
turn out to bo Nate Scudder himself
Him and Huldy was visiting ove:
thoro, samo as he said thoy was going
to.
Nnto had moro than a million ques
tions to ask, Ebonezor tied up the
dog the critter pretty nigh broke
down and sobbed when bo found I
wa'n't to bo fed to him and we wont
Into tho kitchen. Thon Mrs. Holbrook
and Huldy Ann, rigged up tnBty and
becoming in curl paporsand bed quilts,
floated downstairs and thero was more
questions.
When Nato found out that one of
his lodgors was cast adrift in tho ba
ho was almost as worried and upset
as I was. But Ebenezer agreed with us
that there was a good chanco of the
sloop's gottlng ashoro safe. Ho said
why didn't I turn In on his setting
ruora lounge for tho few hours be
tween then nnd sun-up, and In the
morning mo and Nato could take hi
yawl dory and cruise alongshore am"
hunt. So I dono it, though 'twas pre
clous llttlo Bleep I got.
About six o'clock wo started. 1
thought first I'd go up to Eastwlcl
vlllago and tolegrnph to Hartley. Thoi
I thought I'd bettor not; no uso to
scare him till I had to. Nate hat
hpard about tho pig chaso and Hart
ley's doings over thero nnd he pes
tored tho life out of mo with questions
nbout that.
"Queer that boy should turn out to
bo his brother, wu'n't It?" ho says.
"Whose brothor?" says I, loaning
out over tho yawl's Bldo and watch
Ing for signs or tho Dora Bassett
"Why, Hartley's." ho says.
"Brother!" says I. "'Twan't his
brother. No relation to him."
"I heard different," ho Bays. "1
