"Oh. I know you do. It is because I
know you do that I wish to tell you
my story. It is my love which makes

Ko together, loving each other, and not
afraid. Do you recognize me? Have
you ever realized who I am?"
I could only shake my head, wonder
ing at the strani.y question.
"No? And yet 1 have known you
ever sinco that first lorn; talk we had
together in the cabin. It seemed so
odd. such a strange freak of destiny,
that you should have been associated
in any way with my old life, and yet
the ery fact that you were, first cre
ated the bond that has since drawn us
together. You were uo longer a mere
sea-adventurer, but an old-tik'e friend
and equal. From that day all was
different, I could fight it bach, but
could never conquer what that discov
ery meant. Oh. bow small this world
Is! Did you ever hear of Doris W5
low?"
A moment the vague, clouded mem
ory eluded me, tantalized me. Then
in a flash the revelation came.
"My sister's chum at Welleslcy?"
The tears sprang glistening into her
eyes, her lmndclasp tightening.
"Yes: does it seem possible? Ycu
-never knew me, except by that name.
My father died during the second year
of my attendance there; then mother
and I went abroad, and my education
was completed on the continent. I am
not finding fault, but but it was all
most unfortunate; it brought me into
real life with u false understanding of
averything wrong ideals, wrong
standards. Wo were known to be
wealthy, many considered me beauti
luli my mother's one ambition was
to achieve recognized social standing
In Europe, and from tho first I was
destined to be a means to that end.
My education, surroundings, social en
vironment, were all shaped with this
purpose in view. In spite of myself
the result wc accomplished.
"I was merely a girl of 17, desiring
little but a good time, and accustomed
iill my life to the guidance of others.
L,ord Darlington joined our party in
Italy, and we journeyed together for a
week through the Italian Alps, finally
going on board his yacht as invited
guests for a cruise in the Mediter
ranean. He was most attentive to me.
yet I gave it scarcely a thought, I
hardly realized what was taking place
what it all meant, but but one day
we went ashore, and and we were
married at the British legation In
Athens. That day was a careless
girl: the next morning found me a
woman, regretful, aroused from a
dream, yet yielding to the Inevitable.
Whatever I suffered was borne alone;
not even my mother ever heard me
complain."
She sat looking forth over the crests
of the sea, the moonlight reflecting
back into her face. The sail swung
fn and shadowed her.
"Within a month we went to Eng
land, to Darlington hall, where every
thing was at my command, and later
to London, during the social season. I
iad all that the world seems to value at
my feet and at first I managed to be
happy after a fashion. The excitement
and exhilaration kept me alive and in
terested, but In time the slitter and

irtificialily or It all wearied me; more
and more deeply I realized the sordid
manner in which I had been sold, and.
I grew to hate those things which had
purchased me. It was not Lord Dar

scc:etly regretful for his part in the
transaction. I became ill. begged for
the sa, and we went aboard in his
yacht. He was not unwilling, but to
my mother it proved a constant hard
ship. Only her anxiely to prevent any
ruptute between us caused her to go
on hoard. Yet even when I had re
covered health I would not go back;
that life would have killed me. Out
in the open I could breathe and live;
it yielded me courage to continue as
I was."
She bent forward, bringing her face
once again into the revealing moon
light, her eyes frankly open to mine.
"I only wish I could make you re
alize how drearily lonely that life be
came. There was no knowledge of
love to complicate the situation, and at
first I even felt a sense of gratitude
toward Lord Darlington for many acts
of kindness and the consideration
shown me. This changed, however, as
I began slowly to comprehend the self
ishness of his motives that his ac
tions arose merely from a certain
pride in my youthful appearance and
the advantages to be derived from my
wealth. Jly mother soon alienated my
affections by always allying herself
with him. Finally I had no one to
whom I could turn for comfort or ad
vice. I felt entirely alone, and grew
silent, suspicious, and adverse to all
social pleasures. The vows of mar
riage rested lightly on Lord Darling
ton, but for that I did not greatly care.
except that the knowledge snapped
the last weak bond between us. Al
most wild to escape from Europe and
its torturing memories I finally
planned an extensive yachting trip
around the world. I was impulsive,
headstrong, even hopeful that I might
be permitted to invite a few congenial
friends and sail alone. To my surprise
Lord Darlington expressed pleasure
in the idea, and oven persuaded my
mother to accompany us."
Her face sank suddenly into her
hands, her body trembling.
"I bore it all smilingly, and enjoyed
the sea. But 1 was a woman now. bit
terly resenting the manner in which
I had been bartered in the matri
monial markeL I knew nothing df
love, except as I perceived it In the
lives of others, but I was hungry,
starving for it. We arrived at Val
paraiso; this strange adventure oc
curred to me. and then I met you."
Her hands went out again to me,
and I caught them eagerly.
"That that day in the cabin. I
I knew you for one of my own class;
I knew you for a true man, a gentle
man; I I read the love in your eyes.
and I should have been an angel not
to have welcomed it. Oh, God knows
I tried not to do so! I prayed for
help to resist my own heart, but the
help was not given me. Now I com
prehend It was not meant that I should
resist. The end was in sight even from
the beginning. Love is more than
ceremony, and can make even death
sweeL I have no sense of evil as I
look into your eyes; I have come into
my Inheritance, the rightful Inheri
tance of every woman love. Even If
it Is only for a day. It is mine mine
by the gift of God. Oh. Jack. Jack, I
have waited so long, so long, and now
all I can say, all I desire to say, is, I
love you!"
Oh, that scene! that desolate,
dreary, God-forsaken, hopeless scene
the heaving waters, the cold sky, the
ice-gleam, the awful expanse of bar
renness all about. Did ever love come
to mortal before or since In such a
spot, or amid such utter helples'sness?
Rut I forgot all. though even as I
bent to her lips she begged me, falter
ingly. not to touch her yet. There, in
the heart of that Antarctic sea. cast
aways, drifting to what seemed cer
tain death, we found in this confession
a happiness that the world without
would have sternly denied us. Ay!
and we were stronger for it. braver
for it; our eyes aglow, our hearts puls
ing to the one great music of the
universe.
"Tell it to me," she whispered smil
ingly. "I love you."
"And I am happier than In all my
life before."
We spoke but briefly as we sat thus,
my hand firm upon the tiller, my eyes
never forgetful of those great surges
smiting us. Indeed, there was little
to say, for we had no future to dis
cuss, no plans to formulate. We
could only live out the night, with the
morrow a blank before us. Yet there
was nothing of all this in the girl's
face upturned and happy, nor did I
permit my eyes to mar her happiness.
We were together, understanding each
other, and for the moment that was
enough. Yet in some way my pulse
beat stronger, my will to conquer this
demon sea became mighty. God help
ing me, this love-life should not end
here end In mystery and oblivion;
those restless waters should not over
come us forever. I would fight them
for her sake and my own! The stars
and waves defied such determination,
yet I only stiffened in my seat, a new
strength animating my body, a new
faith stimulating my soul. Fifteen
hundred miles! Father of Mercy,
guide us! Yet it had been done, and
it might be done again.
"What is It, Jack?" she questioned
softly. "Of what were you thinking?"
"Of the stiff battle ahead of us,
dear; the fight for life and love across
these leagues of ocean."
"For life and love! Do you mean
you dream of reaching safety?"
"I mean lo struggle for It; to do all

"But," said his friend, "you have

Why Streams Arc Disappearing.
Anyone who has reached the age of
75 has noticed the disappearance of
the small brooks where he played In
his district school days, while larger
ones have shrunk to summer threads,
and rivers that filled their banks all
the year are hardly more than rivu
lets in summer. Commissioner Whip
ple of New York state tells up that the
upper Hudson, in August of 1907. had
a man and sailor may. I we die. now,
sweetheart. It will be o lose more
than ever before was possible."
Her cheeks flushed Instantly, her
lashes drooping.
"No, no; if we win safety It will
only be to lose all else. But the
thought is impossible; no skill, no
courage, no strength of arm or heart
could ever work such a miracle of de
liverance. I will not dream it, for how
could I go back, go back to that old
life again with my heart full of love
for you? That would be a fate worse
than death; It would be dishonor."
I did not answer, did rot even look
into her face.
"Surely you do not mean It, Jack?"
almost pleadingly, her hand reaching
blindly out for mine. "You can not
bring me to such shame, such trial?"
"It Is not shame," I answered earn
estly, all my soul revolting against
the word, "It may be trial, but It Is
not shame. In the face of death you
have confessed you love me, and in
the face of death I shall endeavor to
retain that love. I should be no man
if I did less. Shame! Do not use
that term between us. What was there
holy or divine in the selling of you
to that English peer? Why should
that act of mere barter hold us apart?
The law of God is paramount to the
law of man. Doris, you are mine, al
though you yet withhold the pledge of
the lips; mine everywhere and for
ever; mine here in this desolate reach
of sea, and mine yonder in the great
world, if we ever again attain it. I
never will yield you up to another;
never relinquish my claim. Against
nature and man I shall endeavor to
hold what is my own."
One moment I gazed down Into her
eyes, penetrating to the gray depths,
and perceiving there a sudden out
burst of passion which she did not
even seek to conceal. It was a revela
tion absolute and compete, a revela
tion never to be forgotten. Yet she
did not touch mc, did not answer in
words, and in another instant her
glance turned away out over the grim
desolation of waters. I was still look
ing at her. intoxicated by what I had
seen, when she pointed excitedly for
ward. "In heaven's name, what is that?"
Hardly had my glance shifted when
Kelly leaped to his feet, his voice
raised in a wild yell.
"Mithcr of God, sorr, there's a
ship!"
CHAPTER XXIII.
In Which We Board a DerellcL
I saw the sleepers cast off their cov
erings and rise up startled and staring,
but I could only gaze dumbly at the
apparition before us, doubting the evi
dence of my own eyes and unable to
utter a sound. At that first glance 1
believed tho thing Illusion, a mirage of
the deep, a shadow-ship mocking us '
with semblance of reality. The cold
silvery light played along her glisten
ing side, causing the whole extent of
the vessel to gleam hack into our eyes
like a great mirror, while the very
shape and form of the silently gliding
specter appeared a survival from out
the dead past, a ghastly relic of cen
turies gone uplifted from those som
ber depths below. The silence, gloom,
the dim outline of tho great bull, the
strange glimmer of it from bow to
stern; all combined to make It seem
a ghost-ship, sported with by tho
waves. It moved slowly under the
impelling power of the wind beating
against the broad high stern, the
blunt bows scarcely rippling the wa
ter, passing almost directly across our
track, appearing more like a painted
picture than anything constructed of
wood and iron. Out of the night, dim,
visionary. It swam before us. a weird,
uncanny thing, chilling the blood with
its ghostliness. I rubbed my eyes,
staring at the silvery reflection, my
heart pulsing with a horror which set
me trembling.

There is substantial agreement that
this change has been due to the denu

Work and Nerves.
Work, again, is the enemy of insom
nia. The sufferer from bad or broken
sleep is liable to give up duties or to
be slack in their performance, to aban
don exercise and forget his usual hob
bies because of bis. anticipation of a
night of distress. In reality, he ought
to prepare himsel! for sleep by con
genial activity, in which his mind will
be weaned away from the fear of not
sleeping.
Once more, work is an enemy to the
fears and Impulsions, to the strange
sense of unreality and other morbid
symptoms which accompany psychas
taenia. Work restores to such a suffer
er "the function of the real." It Is only
through contact with reality that man.

"My little son. when about a year

come out on his face. I had a physi

worse. Then they began to come out
on his arms, then on other parts of
his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. Then I
called another physician Still he
grew worse. At the end of about a
year and a half of suffering he grew
so bad that I had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He get to be a mere skeleton,
and was hardly able to walk.

A Divided Family.
The bright six-year-old daughter of
a physician happened into his recep
tion room the other day and a wait
ing woman patient engaged her in con
versation. "I suppose you go to church and
Sunday school?" she asked.
"Oh, yes, ma'am," she replied.
"And what denomination do your
parents belong to?"
"Why." said the little one. "mam
ma's a Presbyterian and papa's a

Noisy Nuisances.
Ill-fitting doors and windows rep
resent a happy hunting ground for the
disturbing winds. In fact, so annoying
does the constant rattle of these open
ings become that many determined in
dividuals, who resolve to admit the
fresh air, choose the lesser of two
evils and close the openings In prefer
ence to sleepless nights. This can be
remedied if a small wedge of wood
be driven In at the side of an open
window; a door can be prevented
from rattling If a pad or strip of thick
felt be nailed on the edge of the door.
The annoyance of creaking drawers
can be eliminated by rubbing common
soap upon the top, sides and bottom of
each.
Creaking hinges on anything should
be well oiled, while the grating. Irri
tating notee of a sewing machine can
be overcome in a similar manner.
The little noises wear away the pa
tience that is required for other
things. It were foolish to dissipate
energy through the channels of irrl
tate.1 nerves when a little time will
obviate the nuisances.

The following remarkable statememt
was recently made by I. T. Cooper. It
concerns the preparatiom which haa
been so widely discussed throughout
the country during the past year, and
has sold in such enormous quantities
in leading cities:
"It is now a well-known fact that
wherever I Lave introduced my New
Discovery medicine, hundreds of peo
ple have brought internal parasites, or
tapeworms, tome. In many cases these
people did not know the nature f Je
parasite, and were consequently u
tremely nervous until I explained the
matter to them. In some cities so
many have had this experience that
the public generally became farmed.
"I take this opportunity A explain
ing what these creatures a-;, and what
I have learned about thez in the past.
"Tapeworms are m"xh more com
mon than would be tupposed. I ven
ture to say that pi per cent, of all
chronic stomach trouble, or what is
known as a rvndown condition, is
caused by them. An Individual may
suffer for years with one of these
great parasites and not be aware of it.
"Contrary to general belief, the appe
tite is not greatly increased it only
becomes irregular. There is a general
feeling of faintness, however, and a
gnawing sensation in the pit of the
stomach.
"People afflicted with one of these
parasites are nervous and depressed.
Their chief sensation is one of lan
guor, and they tire very easily. Lack
of energy and ambition affect the body,
and the mind becomes dull and slug
gish. The memory becomes not so good,
and the eyesight is generally poorer.
"The New Discovery, in freeing stom
ach and bowels of all impurities,
seems to be fatal to these great worms,
and almost immediately expels them
from the system. I wish to assure any
one who has the experience Just re
lated with my preparation, that there
is no cause for alarm in the matter,
and that it will as a rule mean a speedy
restoration to good health."
