In the water nlteinpttng to savo Iris.
P CKAl'TKIt II (Continued).
THIS time his feet plunged against some
thing gracefully solid. Ho was dashed
forward, still battling with tho raging tur
moil of water, nnd a second time ho folt
tho same firm yet smooth surface. His
dormant faculties awoke. Jt was Band.
With frenzied desperntlon, buoyed now by
tho Inspiring hope of safety, ho fought his
wny onward like a maniac.
Often ho fell; three times did tho back
wash try to drag him to the swirling death
behind, but he staggered blindly on, on,
.until oven the tearing gnlo ceased to ie
laden with tho suffocating foam, and his
faltering feet sank In deep, soft, whltt
sand.
Then ho felt not to rise again. With a
lart weak dicker of exhausted strength
he drew tho girl closely to him and tho
two lay clasped tightly together heedless
now of all thlng3.
How long tho man remained prostrato

surroundings to find a Bhnft of sunshine
flickering through tho clouds banked up In
tho east. Tho galo wns already passing
away. Although tho wind still whistled
with shrill v olenco It was moro blustering
than threatening. Tho sea. too. though run
ning very high, had retreated many yards
from tho spot where ho had finally dropped,
and Its surface was no longer scourged with
venomous spray.
Slowly and painfully ho raised himself
to n sitting posture, for ho was bruised
nnd 3tlff. W.th tils first movement ho bo
camo violently III. Ho had swallowed much
salt water, nnd It was not until the Bpasin
of sickness had prfssed that ho thought of
the girl.
Sho had slipped from his breast as ho
rose, nnd was lying, fnce downward. In tho
sand. Tho memory of much thnt had hap
pened surged Into his brain w.th horrifying
suddenness.
"Sho cannot bo dead," ho hoarsely mur
mured, feebly trying to lift her. "Suroly
Providence would not desert her nfter such
an escape What a weak beggar I must
be to glvo In nt tho last moment. I am
sure sho wns living when we got ashore.
What on earth can I do to revivo her?"
Forgetful of his own aching limbs In
this newborn anxiety, he sank on one kneo
and gently pillowed Iris's head nnd Bhoul
dcrs on the other. Her eyes were closed,
her lips nnd tooth firmly set a fact to
which Bhe undoubtedly owed hor llfo. ctso
oho would have been suffocated nnd tho
pallor of her skin seemed to be that terrible
bloodless huo which lnd catos death. Tho
stern lines In tho man's fnco relaxed, and
something hlurrod his vision. Ho wns weak
from exhaustion and want of food, for mo
moment his emotions were easily aroused.
"Oh. It Is p tlful," ho almost whimpered.
"It cannot be I"
With n gesture of despair ho drew tho
sleeve of his thick Jersey across his eyes
to clear them from tho gathering mist.
Then bo tremblingly endeavored to open
tho neck of her dress nnd unclasp her cor
sets. Ho had a vague notion that ladles
In a fnlnt'ng condition required Buch
trontmont. and ho was desperately resolved
to bring Iris Dcnno back to conscious exist
ence If It were possible. His task was ren
dered dllllcutt by tho wnlstband of her
dress. Ho slipped out a claspknlfo and
opened the blade.
Not unt.I then did ho discover that the
nail of tho forefinger on his right hand
had been torn out by tho quick, probably
during his endeavors to grasp tho unstendy
support which contributed so materially
to his escape. It still hung by a shred and
hindered the free uso of his hand. Without
any hesitation he seized tho offending nail
In his toeth and completed the surgical
onoratlon by a rapid Jerk.
Bending to resume his task, he was star
tled to find the girl's eyes wide open and
surveying him with shadowy alarm. Sho
wns qulto conscious, absurdly so In a sense,
and had noticed his strange action.
"Thank God!" he cried hoarsely. "You
nro alive."
Her mind ns yet could only work In a
single groove.
"Why did you do that?" sho whispered,
"Do what?"
"Bite your nail off!"
"It was In my way. I wished to cut
open your dress at the waist. You were
cpllapsed, almost dead, I thought, and I
wanted to unfasten your corsets."

' CONFESSION
Dearest Children I know a littlo girl who has a looking glass and every
time sho wants to tell something to somebody she tells her looking glass,
Did you ever feel as if you MUST tell somebody something or "bust"?
That's slang, I know, but some of our best words today started as slang words.
It depends a good dea". vhat you tell and to whom you tell it. For instance,
if you tell the family doctor about the color of your bank book he is not very
much interested, but if you talk sickness to him, he becomes very much
interested.
I would suggest you confess how very well you are to your doctor, I would
suggest you confess how tough the steak is to your butcher and not to some
playmate. Tho butcher should be interested, the playmate (deep down in his
heart) may think it's a good joke on you,
Vhen it comes to confessing about your very own self I think mother is
about the most INTERESTED person in the world.
Oh I how it relieves one's mind to "toll mother all about it."
See that you do not havo to confess and then you will not have to worry
about to whom you should tell your thoughts.

'Early yesterday morning I went to tho

a faithful member of tho club. Right then
and there I made up my mind to keop tha
rules of my new club."
"I started down the road briskly and

Her color camo back with rclnnrkabto
rnp'dlty. From all thd rich variety of tho
English tongue few words could havo been
selected of such restorative effect.
Itho tried to nssumo a sitting posture,
nnd Instinctively her hands traveled to hor
disarranged costume. t
"How ridiculous I" she said, with a littlo
nolo of annoynnco In her voice, which
sounded curiously hollow. But her brnvo
spirit could not yet command her en
feebled frame. Sho was pcrfoico compelled
to sink back to tho support of his kneo
nnd arm.
"Do you think you could lie quiet until
I try to find some water?" ho gasped
anxiously.
Sho tioddrd a chlldllko acquiescence, nnd
her eyelids fell. It was only thnt her eyes
smarted dreadfully from tho salt water,
but thr- sailor wns sure that this was a
premonition of a Inpso to unconsciousness.
. '1'l1c:lRo try not to faint ngaln," he snld.
Don't you think 1 had better loosen tbeso
things? You can breathe rioro easily"
A ghost of n sml.o flickered on her lips.
'.No no," sho murmured "My ryes hurt
mo that Is all In there nny water'"
Ho laid her tenderly on the sand nnd rose
to his feet His first glnnco was toward
tho sen He saw something which made
him blink with astonishment A heavy sea
was still running over tho barrier reef
which Incloacd a small lagoon. Tho con
trast between thoi fierce commotion outside
and tho comparatively smooth surfaco of
the protected pool was very marked. At
low tldo tho lagoon was almost completely
Isolated. Indeed, ho Imagined that only
a lldrce gale blowing from the northwest
would enablo tho waves to leap the reef,
savo whero a strip of broken water, surging
far Into tho small natural harbor, betrayed
the position of tho tiny entrance.
Yet at this very point a fine cocoanut
palm reared Its stately column high in air,
and Its long tremulous fronds wcro now
swinging wildly beforo the gale. From
whore ho stood It appeared to bo growing
In tho midst of the sen, for hugo breakers
completely hid tho coral embankment. This
sentinel of tho land had a weirdly Im
pressive effect. It was tho only fixed
object In tho wasto of foam-capped waves.
Not a vestige of the Sirdar remained Ben
ward, but the sand was littered with
wreckage, and mournful spectacle ! a con
siderable number of Inanlmato human forms
lay huddled up amidst the relics of the
steamer.

This discovery stirred him to action. Ho
turned to survey tho land on which ho wns
stranded with his helpless companion. To
his grenl relief ho discovered that It was
lofty and tree clad.
Ho knew that the ship could not havo
drifted to Borneo, which still lay far to the
south This must bo one of tho hundreds
of Islands which stud tho China Sea nnd
provide resorts for Hainan fishermen.
Probably It was Inhabited, though ho
thought It strange that none of tho Islanders
had put In nn appearance. In any event.
water nnd food, of porno sort, were assured.
But beforo setting out upon his quest
two things demanded attention. Tho girl
must be removed from her present pos tlun.
It would bo too horrible to permit her
first conscious gnzo to rest upon thoso
crumpled objects on tho bench. Common
humanity demanded, too, thnt ho should
hastily examine each of tho bodies In caso
llfo was not wholly extinct.
So ho bent over tho girl, noting with sud
den wonder that, weak ns sho was, sho
had managed to refnstcn part of her bodice.
"You must permit mo to carry you a
littlo further Inland," ho explained gently
Without nnothor wont ho I fted her In
his arms, marveling somewhat at the
strength which camo of necessity, nnd boro
her somo littlo distance, until a sturdy
rock, Jutting out of tho sand, offered shel
ter from tho wind nnd protection from
tho sea and Its revelations.
"I nm so cold, and tired," murmured Iris.
"Is there nny water? My throat hurts
me."
Ho pressed back tho tangled hair from
her forehead as ho might sootho n child.
"Try to Ho istlll for a very few min
utes." ho said. "You havo not long to
suffer. I will return Immediately."
Ills own throat and pnlato were on flro
owing to tho brine, but ho first hurried
back to tho edgo of tho lagpon. There
wero 14 bodies lu all, 3 women and 11 men,
four of tho latter being laBcars. The
women wero saloon passengers whom he
did not know. Ono of tho men was tho
surgeon, another tho first officer, a third
oir jonn uozor. -rne rest were passengers
and members of tho crow. They were all
dead ; somo had been peacefully drowned,
othors wero fearfully mangled by tho rocks.
Two of tho lascars, bearing signs of dread
ful injuries, were lying on a cluster of
low rocks overhanging the water. Tho re
mainder rested on tho sand.
Tho sailor exhibited no visible emotion

brushwood ho uttered a delighted kkelama-'
tlon. There, growing In prodigal luturl
Anco. was the beneficent pitcher' ptant,
whoso largo curled-up leaf, shaped Ilk a
teacup, hot only holds n lasting quantity
of rain water, but mixes therewith its own
palatable and natural Juices.
With his knlfo ho severed two of tho
leaves, swearing emphatically tho while on
account bf his damaged finger, and has
tened to Iris with the precious beverage.
Sho hoard h m nnd managed to raise her
self on an elbow,
Tho poor girls eyes glistened at the
prospect of relief. Without a word of ques--tlon
or surprise sho swallowed tho con
tents of both leaves.
Then sho found utterance. ''How odd It
tastes I What Is It?" Rho Inquired.
But tho eagerness with which she
quenched hor thirst renewed his own mo
mentarily forgotten torturo. His tongue
seemed to swell. Ho was absolutely un
nblo to reply. V
The water revived Iris like n magto
draught. Hor quick Intuition told her what
nan Happened
"You havo had nono yourself," she cried.
"Go at onco nnd get somo. And pteaso
bring mo somo moro."
Ho required no second bidding. After
hastily gulping down tho contents of sev
eral loaves ho returned with n further sup
ply. Iris wns now Bitting up. The sun
had burst royally through tho clouds and
her chilled limbs wero gaining somo degree
of warmth and elasticity.
vvnai is 117- sho repeated after another
delicious draught.
"The leaf of the pitcher plant. Nature
Is not always cruel. In an unusually gen
erous mood she devised this method of stor
ing water."
Miss Dcano reached out her hand for
more. Her troubled brain refused to won
der nt such a reply from nn ordinary sea
man. Tho sailor deliberately spilled tho
contents of a remaining leaf on tho sand.
"No, madam," ho said, with an odd mix
ture of deferonco nnd firmness. "No more
nt presont. I must first procuro you some
food."
Sho looked up at him In momentary
silence.
"Tho ship Is lost?" sho said after n pause.
"Yos, madam,"
"Arc wo tho only pcoplo saved?"
"I fear bo."
"Is this a desert Island7"
"t think not. madam. It may. hy chance,
bo temporarily uninhabited, but fishermen
from China como to all thoso places to
collect tortolso shell nnd becho-de-mcr. i
havo seen no other living bolngs except
ourselves: nevertheless, tho Islandors tnny
llvo on tho south side."
Another pause. Amidst tho thrilling sen
sations of tho moment Iris found herself
dly speculating as to tho meaning of
becho-de-mcr. nnd why this common Bailor
pronounced French so well. Her thoughts
reverted to tho stenmcr.
"It surely cannot be possible that tho
Sirdar has gono to pieces a magnificent
vessel of her slzo and strength?"
Ho nnswered quietly "It Is too truo,
madam. I suppose you hardly know sho
struck. It happened so suddenly. After
ward, fortunately for you, you were un
conscious." "How do you know?",sho Inquired quick
ly. A flood of vivid recollection was pour.
Ing In upon her.
"f or well, I happened to bo near you,
madam, when tho ship broke up and we
er drifted nshoro together."
Sho roso nnd faced him. "I remember
now." sho cried hysterically. "You caught
mo as I was thrown Into tho corridor. Wo
fell Into tho sea when tho vessel turned
over. You havo saved my life. Wero It
not for you I could not possibly have es
caped." Sho gazed nt him moro earnestly, seeing
that he blushed beneath the crust of salt
and sand that covered his face. "Why,"
she went on with growing excitement, "you
nro tho steward I noticed in tho saloon
yesterday. How Is It that you aro now
dressed as a sailor?"
Ho answered readily enough. "Thoro was
an accident on board during tho gale,
madam. I am a fair sailor but a poor
steward, so I appVcd for a transfer. As
tho crew wero short-handed my offer was
accepted."
Iris was now looking at him Intently. '
