SYNOPSIS.
The story opens with the shipwreck of
the steamer on which Miss Genevieve
Leslie, an American heiress. Lord Win
thrope, an Englishman, and Tom Blake,
a brusque American, were passengers.
The three were tossed upon an uninhab
ited island ami were the only ones not
drowned. Blake recovered from a drunk
en stupor. Blake, shunned otr the boat,
because of his roughness, became a hero
as preserver of the helpless pair. The
Englishman was suing for the hand of
Miss Leslie. Blake started to swim back
to the ship to recover what was left.
Blake returned safely. WInthrope wasted
his last match on a cigarette, for which
lie was scored by Blake. Their first meal
was a Uad lisli. The trio started a ten
mile hike for higher land. Thirst at
tacked them. Blake was compelled to
carry Miss Leslie on account of weari
ness. Ho taunted Win th rope. They en
tered the jungle. That night was passed
roosting high in a tree. The next morn
ing tln-y desi ended to the op-n again.
All three constructed hats to shield them
r.elcs ftom the sun. They then feasted
on cocoamits. the only procurable food.
Miss Leslie showed a liking for Blake,
but detested hi.-, roughness. Led by Bltke
they -ftalIished a home in some cliffs.
BJa! e found a fresh water spring. Miss
1a -lie faced an unpleasant situation.
Thev planned their campaign. Blake re
covered hi;-- surveyor's magnifving glass,
thus insuring" lire. Ho r.t.irted a jungle

the t lins by burning the bottom of a

M'ss L'hhu's ih:te skirt was decided
upon aft a signal. Miss Leslie made a
drf-.s from the leopard skin. Blake's ef
forts to kill antelopes failed. Overhear
ing a conversation between Blake and
Winthrop". Miss Lesiit. became fright
ened. Winthrope became ill with fever.
CHAPTER XIV Continued.
At noon, having learned that Win
thrope's condition showed little change,
13!ake ate a hearty meal, and at once
set off down the cleft. He did not re
appear until nightfall: though at In
tervals Miss Leslie had heard his step
as he came up the ravine with his
loads of thorn-brush.
This course of action became the
routine for the following ten days. It
was broken only by three incidents,
all relating to the important matter of
food supply. "Winthrope had soon
tired of broth, and showed such an in
satiable craving for cocoanut milk
that the stock on hand had become
exhausted within the v.eek.
The day after, Blake took the rope
ladder, as he called the tangle of
knotted creepers, and went off towards
the north end of the cleft. When he
returned, a little before dark, the
lower part of his trousers was torn to
shreds, and the palms of his hands
were blistered and raw; but he carried
a heavy load of cocoanuts. After a
vain attempt to climb the giant palms
on the far side of the river, he had
found another grove near at hand, in
the little plain, and had succeeded in
reaching the tops of two of the
smaller palms.
Under his directions. Miss Leslie
clarified a bowl of bird fat goose
grease, Blake called it and dressed
his hands. Yet even with the band
ages which she made of soft inner
bark and the handkerchiefs, he was
unable to handle the thorn-brush the
following day. Unfortunately for him,
he was not content to sit idle. During
the night he had cut a bamboo fishing
pole and lengthened Miss Leslie's line
cf plaited cocoanut-fiber with a long
catgut leader. In the afternoon he
completed his outfit with a hairpin
hook and a piece of half-dried meat.
He was back an hour earlier than
usual, and he brought with him a
dozen or more fair-sized fish. His
mouth was watering over the prospec
tive feast, and Miss Leslie showed her
self hardly less eager for a change
from their monotonous diet. As the
fish were already dressed, she raked
up the coals and quickly contrived a
grill of green bamboos.
When the odor of the broiling fish
spread about in the still air, even Win
thrope sniffed and turned over, while
Blake watched the crisping delicacies
with a ravenous look. Unable to re
strain himself, he caught up the
smallest fish, half cooked, and bolted
it down with such haste that he burnt
his mouth. He ran over to the spring
for a drink, and Winthroie cackled
derisively.
Misr. Leslie was too absorbed in her
cooking to observe the result of
Blake's greediness. She had turned
the fish for the last time, and was
about to lift. them off the fire, when
Blake came running back, and sent
grill and all flying with a violent kick.
"Salt!" he gasped "where's the
salt? I'm poisoned!"
"Poisoned?"
"Poison fish! Don't eat! God!
Where's the salt?"
The girl stared at him. His agony
was so great that beads of sweat were
rolling down his face. He writhed, and
stretched out a quivering hand "Salt, f
quick! warm water salt!"
"But there's none left! You remem
ber, yesterday "
"God!" groaned Blake, and for a
moment he sank down, overcome by
a racking convulsion. Then his jaw
closed like a bulldog's, and gritting his
teeth with the effort, he staggered up
and rushed off down the cleft.
"Stop! stop, Mr. Blake! Where are
you going?" screamed the girl.
She started to run after him, but
was halted by an outburst of delirious
laughter. Winthrope was sitting up
right and waving his fever-blotched
hands "Hi, hi! look at im run! 'E's
got w'at'U do for 'im! Run, you swine;
you"
There followed a torrent of cockney
abuse so foul that Miss Leslie blushed
scarlet with shame as she sought to
quiet him. But the excitement had so
heightened his fever that he was in a
raving delirium. It was close upon
midnight before his temperature fell,
and he sank into a death-like torpor.
In her ignorance, she supposed that he
had fallen asleep.
Her relief was short-lived, for soon
she remembered Blake. She could see
him lying beside the pool or out on the
bare plaint his resolute eyes cold and I

The Girl Was
glassy, his powerful body contorted in
the death agony. The vision filled her
with dismay. With all his coarseness,
the man had showed himself so re
sourceful, so indomitable, that when
she sought to dwell upon her reasons
to fear him, she found herself admir
ing his virile manliness. He might be
a brute, but he did not belong among
the jackals and hyenas. Indeed, as
she called to mind his strong face and
frank, blunt speech she all but disbe
lieved what her own ears had heard.
And anyway, without his aid, what
should she do? Winthrope had already
become as weak as a child. The
emaciation of his jaundiced features
was a mockery of their former plump
ness. Blake had said that the fever
might run on for another week, and
that even if Winthrope recovered, he
would probably be helpless for several
days besides.
What was no less serious, though
she had concealed the fact from Blake,
she herself had been troubled the past
week with the depression and lassitude
which had preceded Winthrope's at
tack. If Blake was dead, and she
should fall ill before Winthrope recov
ered, they would both die from lack of
care. And if they did not die of the
fever, what of, their future, here on
this desolate savage coast?
But the very keenness of her mental
anguish so exhausted and numbed the
girl's brain that she at last fell into a
heavy sleep. The fire burned low, and
shadowy forms began to creep from
behind the bamboos and the trees and
rocks down the gorge. There was no
sound; but greedy, wolfish eyes
gleamed in the starlight.
Onlv the day before Blake had told
Miss Leslie to store the last rack of
cured meat inside the baobab. The
two sleepers lay between the fire and
the entrance to the hollow. Slowly
the embers of the fire died away into
gray ashes, and slowly the night
prowlers drew nearer. The boldest of
the pack crept close to Miss Leslie,
and, with teeth bared and back
bristling, sniffed at the edge of her"
skirt. Whether because of her heavy
breathing or the odor of the leopard
skin, the beast drew away, with an
uneasy whine.
There was a pause; then, backed
by three others, the leader approached
Winthrope. He was still lying in the
death-like torpor, and he lacked the
protection which, in all likelihood, the
leopard skin had given Miss Leslie.
The cowardly brutes took him for
dead or dying. Tfcey sniffed at him
from head to foot, and then, with a
ferocious outburst of snarls and yells,
flung themselves upon him.
Had it not chanced that Winthrope
was lying upon his side, with one arm
thrown up, he would have been fatally
wounded by the first slashing bites of
his assailants. The two which sought
to tear him were baffled by the thick
folds of Blake's coat, while their lead
er's slash at the victim's throat was
barred by the upraised arm. With a
savage snap, the beast's jaws closed on
the arm. biting through to the bone. At
the same instant the fourth jackal
tore ravenously at one of the out
stretched legs.
With a shriek of agony, Winthrope
started up from his torpor, and struck
out frantically in a fury of pain and
terror. Startled by the violence of
this unexpected resistance, the jack
als leaped back only to spring in
again as the remainder of the pack
made a rush to forestall them.
Winthrope was staggering to his
feet, when the foremost brute leaped
upon him. He fell heavily against
one of the main supports of his bam
boo canopy, and the entire structure
came down with a crash. Two of the
jackals, caught beneath the roof,
howled with fear as they sought to
free, themselves. The others, with
Now Frantic.
brute dread of an unknown danger,
drew away, snarling and gnashing
their teeth.
Wakened by the first ferocious yelps
of Winthrope's assailants, Miss Leslie
had started up and stared about in the
darkness. On all sides she could see
pairs of fiery eyes and dim forms like
the phantom creatures of a nightmare.
Winthrope's shriek, instead of spur
ring her to action, only confused her
the more and benumbed her faculties.
She thought it was his death cry, and
stood trembling, transfixed with
.horror.
Then came the fall of the canopy.
Hs cries as he sought to throw it off
showed that he was still alive. In a
flash her bewilderment vanished. The
stagnant blood surged again through
her arteries in a fiery, stimulating tor
rent With a cry, to which primeval
instinct lent a menacing note, she
groped her way to the fallen canopy,
and stooped to lift up one side.
"Quick! into the tree!" she called.
Still frantic with terror, Winthrope
struggled to his fret. She thrust him
towards the baobab, and followed,
dragging the mass of interwoven bam
boos. Emboldened by the retreat of
their quarry, the snarling pack in
stantly began to close in. Fortunately
they were too cowardly to rush at
once, and fear spurred their intended
victims to the utmost haste. Groping
and stumbling, the two felt their way
to the baobab, and Miss Leslie pushed
Winthrope headlong through the en
trance. As he fell, she turned to face
the pack.
The foremost beasts were at the
rear edge of the bamboo framework,
their eyes close to the ground. In
stinct told hsr that they were crouch
ing to leap. With desperate strength
she caught up the canopy before her
like a great shield, and drew it in
after her until the ends of the cross
bars were wedged fast against 'the
sides of the opening. Though it seemed
so firm, she clung to it with a con
vulsive grasp as she felt the pack
leaders fling themselves against the
outer side.
The German
Well-Planned Swindle in Which a Mil
lionaire Was "Stung."
A daring and well-planned swindle
on a large scale was that executed by
a German doctor and his confederates.
Near a small village in one of the
lake states lived a western millionaire
in seclusion with his little daughter
and a few servants. The child was
afflicted with a rare cerebro-spinal
complaint, a most unpleasant mani
festation of which was a frequent
bark-like hiccough, and eminent phy
sicians, both in America and Europe,
had pronounced the case organic and
incurable.
Later there came to live in the vil
lage a widow with a little girl afflicted
similar to the millionaire's daughter.
The child was a delicate, flower-faced
creature, wistful from the isolation
that must have been her sad lot, and
the peculiar bark-like hiccough which
she made at once attracted the mil
lionaire's attention and, being a big
hearted if rather ignorant man, he
gave the mother employment about
his home and showered the afflicted
child with presents.
Perhaps four months after the
widow's advent an eccentric German
doctor settled in the village, and his
service being sought by the widowJie

But Blake had lashed the bamboos
securely together, and none of the
boasts was heavy enough to snap the
s.upple bars. Finding that they could
not break down the barrier, they be
gan to scratch and tear at the thatch
which covered the frame. Soon a pair
of lean jaws thrust in and snapped
at the girl's skirt. She sprang back,
with a cry: "Help! Quick, Mr. Win
thrope! They're breaking through!"
Winthrope made no response. She
stooped, and found him lying Inert
where ho had fallen. She had only
herself to depend upon. A screen of
sharp sticks which she had made for
the entrance was leaning against the
inner wall, within easy reach. To
grasp it and thrust it against the other
framework was the work of an in
stant. Still she trembled, for the eager
beasts had ripped the thatch from the
canopy, and their inthrust jaws made
short work of the few leaves on her
screen. Unaware that even a lion or a
tiger is quickly discouraged by the
knife-like splinters of broken bamboo,
she expected eveiy moment that the
jackals would bite their way through
her frail barrier.
She remembered the sharpened
stakes of her screen, hidden under the
leaves and grass of her bed. She
groped her way across the hollow,
and uncovered one of the stakes. In
her haste she cut her hand on fta
razor-like edge. AH unheeding, she
sprang back towards the entrance. She
was none too soon. One of the smaller
jackals had forced its head and one
leg between the bars, and was strug
gling to enlarge tho opening.
Fearful that the whole pack was
about to burst in upon her, the girl
grasped the bamboo stake in both
hands, and began stabbing and lung
ing at the beast with all her strength.
The jackal squirmed and snarled and
snapped viciously. But the girl was
ow frantic. She pressed nearer, and
though the white teeth grazed hei
wrist, she drove home a thrust that
changed the beast's snarls into a howl
of pain. Before she could strike
again, it had struggled back out o!
the hole, beyond reach.
Tense and panting with excitement,
she leaned forward, ready to stab at
the next beast. None appeared, and
presently she became aware that the
pack had been daunted by the ex
perience of their unlucky fellow. Their
snarls and yells had subsided to
whines, which seemed to be coming
from a greater distance. Still she
waited, with the bamboo stake up
raised ready to strike, every nerve
and'muscle of her body tense with the
strain.
So great was t!e stress of her feai
and excitement that she had not heed
ed the first gray lessening of the
night. But now the glorious tropica!
dawn came streaming out of the east
in all its red effulgence. Above and
through the .bamboo barrier glowed a
light such as might have come froir
a great fire on the cliff top. Stil!
tense and immovable, the girl stared
out up the cleft. There was not a
jackal in sight. She leaned forward
and peered around, unable to believe
such good fortune. But the nighl
prowlers had slunk off in the firsl
gray dawn.
The girl drew in a deep, shudder
ing sigh, and sank back. Her banc
struck against Winthrope's foot. She
turned about quickly and looked al
him. He was lying upon his face. She
hastened to turn him upon his side
and to feel his forehead. It was cool
and moist. He was fast asleep and
drenched with sweat. The great
shock of his pain and fear and ex
citement had broken his fever.
With the relief and joy of this dis
covery. the girl completely relaxed.
Not observing Winthrope's wounds
which had bled little, she sought tc
force a way out through the entrance.
It was by no means an easy task tc
free the wedged framework, and when,
after much pulling and pushing, she
at last tore the mass loose, she found
herself perspiring no less freely than
Winthrope.
(TO BE CONTINUED.)
Doctor's Graft
gave her child treatment, with the re
sult that it was completely cured.
The millionaire immediately sought
to place his own daughter under the
German's care, but the latter flatly re
fused to take the case. He was a So
cialist of a violent type and wonld
have nothing to do with a man whose
wealth exceeded the sum that he had
fixed upon as the lawful limit of ma
terial possession.
Finally, however, after the father
had patiently borne the grossest in
sults, the German agreed to give the
afflicted child treatment, on condition
that the other would first deed over a
large tract of land in Texas for a So
cialist colony and pay him for his fee
a sum little short of ?50,000. This the
millionaire did, but as soon as the doc
tor had cashed the check he disap
peared with the widow and her child,
and the wealthy man realized that,
blinded by paternal love, he had been
made the victim of an ingenious
swindle.
The flower-faced girl of the widow
had been taught to simulate a dis
ease, and the German was no doubt
her father. He was subsequently lo
cated in Buenos Ayres, but the in
jured man, not wishing his daughter's
affliction published broadcast, dropped
the prosecution. Don Mark Lemon, in
the Bohemian Magazine.
PAINT FAULTS.
it is a common occurrence nowa
days to hear a man remark with dis
gust: "It is impossible to have good
painting done' these days; either the
paint is not good or there are no good
painters." This, however, is not true.
There is good paint, and there are
good painters. But the question is,
bringing them together.
One cannot expect a satisfactory
painting job without purewhito lead.
There is a way to make sure you are
getting pure white lead without test
ing it See that the keg bears Na
tional Lead Company's famous Dutch
Boy Painter trademark, which is a
positive guarantee of purity. However,
anyone can test white lead. National
Lead Company, 1902 Trinity BIdg.,
New York City, will send you a lead
tester and painter's outfit, consisting
of book of color schemes, specifica
tions, etc., upon request
"Filthy Lucre."
The expression "filthy Iacre" Is of
Biblical origin, and is to be found in
the third chapter of the first book of
Timothy, where the qualifications nec
essary for the office of a bishop
are thus set forth: "This is a true
saying. If a man desireth the of
fice of bishop, he desireth a good
work. A bishop must then be blame
less, the husband of one wife, vigilant,
sober, of good behavior, given to hos
pitality, apt to teach; not given to
wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy
lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not
covetous."
Laundry work; at homo would bo
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou
ble can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
er strength than other makes.
Snake Story.
"Before he went fishing," said the
town story-teller, he swallowed
'bout a pint an' half of snakebite rem
edy, an' of course you know what that
is? Well, after the snake bit him,
the reptile cut all sorts o' capers, kaze
the remedy went straight to its head.
