But despite his confident tone he
was worried, terribly worried, for he
appreciated that their plight was a
desperate one.
"Don't come any farther, Hook," he
called to the seaman, who had started
after them. "We're in trouble. Get

yourself."
"What's the matter, lootenant?"
shouted Hook, as, obeying Hope's
order, he regained the bank. "Are
you in quicksand?"
"I'm afraid so," Hope answered.
"We can't move and we seem to be
slowly sinking."
"What shall I do?" the sailor
shouted. "Shall I get some branches?"
"I don't think they'll do any good,
Hook," came the answer. "WeTe in
too deep. The only way to get us
out is with a rope. You'd better hurry
down the valley and see if you can
find help. You may run across a

never make It We will have sunk
long before he can get back with
help. God what a death to die in
quicksand."
'Keep cheered up. Miss Geo, and
you, too, lootenant," called Hook, as
he started off on a lumbering run.
"I'll be back with a rope before you

lection of how the day before she had
saved herself from Mahlin and Sat

manded. "There is no time to find a
rope we would he dead before vou
could get back with one. But you
can get a grapevine a long one, such
as I swung across the gulch on there
are lots of them in the forest I saw
them this morning. But you must
hurry, Hook . . hurry . . or
you will be too late."
Nodding his comprehension of her
plan, the sailor turned and ran toward
the forest.
"It is a SDlendid idea, dear." said
Hope. "It never occurred to me. If
we are saved it will be due to vou.
"I hope that he will get back in
time, she remarked, as matter-of-
factly as though there depended upon
his return nothing more important
than a social engagement, but terror
was gnawing at her heart, for she

by myriads of insects, they dared not

"Dear heart," said Cleo, after a long
pause, "if if Hook should not get
back in time, I want to go down hold
ing your hand. I shall not be fright
ened of death, then."
You dear, brave girl, groaned
Hope: "this is all mv fault. I seem to
have brought you nothing but misery
and trouble.
"You have brought me nothing but
happiness, dear," said Cleo. "And
death holds few terrors so long as you
are beside me.
"But we are not going to die," she
exclaimed a moment later, "There's
Hook and he has the grapevine.
