The ham was her first attempt.

"It gratifies every sense." ho murmured.

"Permission to smoke."
"Smoke what?"
He produced a steel box, tightly closed,
and a pipe.
" 'Sublime tobaccol which from
east to west
Cheers the tar's labour or the Turk

"Tour pockets are absolute shops." said
the girl, delighted that his temper had im
proved "vhat other stores do you carry
about with you?"
Ho lt his plpo and solemnly gave an in
ventory of his worldly goods. Beyond the
Items she had previously seen he coud only
,nupiernte a sliver dollar, a. very soiled and
crumpled handkerchief and a bit of tfn. A
box of Norwegian matches he threw afvav
as useless, but Iris recovered them.
"You never know what purpose th- may
servo," she said. In after days a weird
significance was attached to this simple
phrase.
"Why do you carry about a bit of tin?"
she went on.
How t)te atmosphere of deception clung
to hlrfi! Hero was a man compelled to lie
outrageously who, )n happier sears, had
prided himself on scrupulous accuracy even
in small things.

nothing of It, so together they puzzled over

the Island," she cried.
"Also the latitude and the longitude."
"What does tha 'J, .' mean?"
"Probably the initials of a man's name;
let us say John Smith, for Instance."
"And the figures on the Island with the
Jf and tho dot?"
"I cannot tell you at present," he said.
"I take It that the line across the Island
signifies this gap or canyon, and the small
Intersecting line the cave, But 33 divided
by L and an 'X' surmounted by a dot are
cabajlBtlo. They would cause even Sherlock
Holmes, to smoke at least two pipes. I hayo
brey started one."
She ran to fetch a glowing stick (o enable

"Why do you give me such nasty little

Their eyes exchanged a quaintly pleasant
challenge. Thus the man r"Sho Is deter,

she will not succeed."
And the woman "The wretchl He Is
as close aa an oyster. But I will make him

She reverted to the piece of tin, "It
looks quite rnystarleus, like the things you
read of In stories of pirates and burled

'Protobly the former, but not the well.

"Why do ypu aesume he was alone?"
He strplled toward the fire to kick a

Miss Deane had prepared a capital meal
Of course the ham and biscuits still hulked
large In the bill of fare, but there were
boiled eggs, fried bananas and an elderly

For the life or htm the man could not
refrain from displaying the conversational
art In which he excelled. Their talk dealt
with Italy, Egypt. India, He spoke with,
tho ease of culture and enthusiasm. Once
he slipped Into anecdoto apropos of the
helplessness of British soldiers In any mat

Iris was serious enough now,
"How do you khow that euc danger

IS'ow, the strango feature pf this ex
traordinary and unexpected outburst of
pent-up emotion was that the girl pro
nounced his name with the slightly empha
sized accontuntlon of ops who knew It to
bo a mcro disguise. The man was so taken
aback by her declaration of faith that the
minor Incident, though It did not eeeape
htm, was smothered )n a tumult of feeling.
Iris was the first to recover a degre
of self-possession. For a moment the Had
bored her oul. With reaction came a
sensitive shrinking. Her British tempera
ment, no less than her delicate nature, die
approved these sentimental display, fehe
wanted to box her own ears.
With Innato tact she took a keen nterset

"What do you want It for? she In
quired, when the sturdy trunk creaked and

Jenks felt better now.
"This is a change of diet." ha explained.

will become a white powder, which, when
palled, Is sago."
Good gracious!" said Iris.

heavens. Iris was preparing break
fast; a fine fire was crackling cheerfully,
apd tho presiding goddess had so altered
her appearance that tho sailor surveyed
her with astonishment.
So soundly had he slept that his senses
returned but slowly. At last he guessed
what had happened. She had risen with
tho dawn, and, conquering her natural
feeling of repulsion, selected from the ntoro
he accumulated yesterday some more-suitable
garments than those In which she
escaped from the wreck.
Ho quietly took stock of his own tat
tered condition, and passed a reflective
hand over the stubble on his chin. In a
few days his face would resemble a scrub
bing brush. In that mournful moment ho
would have exchanged even his pipe and
tobacco box worth untold gold for shav
ing tackle. Who can say why h's thoughts
took such trend? Twenty-four hours can
effect great changes in the human mind If
controlling Influences are active.
Then came a sharp revulsion of feeling.
His name was Itobert a menial. Ho
reached for his boots, and Iris heard him.
"Good morning," she cried, smiling
sweetly, "I thought you would never
wake. I supposo you were very, very tired.
You were lying so still that I ventured to
peep at you a long time ago,"
"Thus might Titanla peep at an ogre,"
he said.
"You don't look a bit like an ogre. You
never do. You only try to talk like on
sometime "
"I claim a truce until after breakfast.

It was on the tip of her tongus to pounce
on hm with the comment; "Then you have
been an officer In the army." But she for
bore. She had guessed this earlier. Yet
tha mischievous light In her eyes defied
control. Ho was warned In time and pulled
himself up short-
"You read my face like a book," she
cried, with a delightful little moue.
"No printed page was ever so legible."
Ho was gplng to say "fascinating," but
checked the impulse. He went on with
brisk affectation:
"Now, Hiss Deane, we have gossiped iou

before startlpjf work, I havo a few serous
remarks to make,"
