Mother and I are ishamed of the way Daisy has behaved -expecting to marry you In tho winter ind now running nwoy with that trav eling ealcaman from Boston yes, tho 'minister at Tuloecs married them thnt afternoon, and now as long s they're married and ho Is her husband, why we've got to make the best of It. But we'd a bull sight ruther Daisy had married you what can I say to com fort you. Hen?", Ben naymond s tanned face seemed to rale, a tired look came Into his dark blue eyes and his firm lips were n straight hard line that parted In a grim imile nt the shnmc-faccd countenance of William Brewer. "Don't worrv about me, Mr. Brewer," he Mid, extending a big brown hand. "It's a hnrd blow If Daisy bad only told me (dip didn't love me I would hare freed her nt once, but don't you and Mrs. Brewer fret nbout It It will come out all right in the end." "You're a son to be proud of, Ben," eaiil the older man hoarsely, as he went away. Hen panned with his hand on the painter of the lighthouse motorbont. The emlie had faded and there was only the crlmncsH left on his face. The boat was laden with supplies for the light house, standing clean and whlto at the end of the long shonl two miles from the mainland. Ben was assistant keeper there, and he nnd Daisy had planned an Idyllic life In their fceabound home but It was not to be. Therefore, the light house looked colder and lonelier thnn erer as hit boat dashed across the bay. He might hnve been jilted every day of the week for nil the emotion he showed when he mounted the stnlrs to the oozy living room nnd told his uncle and aunt the news. When the keeper nnd his good wife had exhausted their anger and the noon day dinner was cleared away Ben found work to do In the lamp room, nnd the Pboni Locuat 074(1 NICKELSON'S INTEIIIOK DKCnrtATORB SHADES-AWNINGS- VPH0L8TER1NO WAIA C0VEI11N0 W Will Call and KttlmaU 1511 Tine Ht I'hlla., Pa. two old people were left atone. "It will be made up to him some day, my j'enr. The good Lord will straighten It out I Daisy was n trifling girl, but because Ben loved her I tried to like her." Days, weeks nnd months went by nnd Ben Raymond found thnt time was n little solace. Ho had learned to think of Daisy ns Mrs. Browne, though he had never seen her or her dapper husband. "I expect some day I'll be .darned .glad it happened." he told himself savagely, as he polished tho brasses and cleaned the big lenses. It was a wild autumn, with raging seas nnd furious winds that shook the building to Its foundation. FolkH nBhore arose 111 thp ntcht nml Innltfwl nfr ntrnr.1 Sands Light to see If somo- glnnt sea mm not swept it away, but nothing iiiiiiwencu unui uurinimag wcck, when a Dunning snowstorm held tho country In thrall nnd tho friendly beams of Sands Light could scarcely be seen. Through the smothering thickness tho big foghorn blared wnrnlngly, whllo a bell buoy . . ,l0l,ea . wun dreary insistence. Ben had not slept for several days and his uncle urged him to rest. "You'll be no use to mo all fagged out, Benny," he said. "I,mfJI ,r,Kht. Unde Pete," assured Ben. "We've sot to nox fhi. m ... enster through without a wreck on the ahnil " "What's that?" bellowed the keeper above the nolso of the horn. "Sen gulls poor critters," mut tered Ben. "Sounds like a cry-" Tho two men rushed to a window nnd lookd out. At first nothing could bo teen but tho smothering cloud of snow- flakes. There was no sljn of an un fortunate vessel beiirlng toward the shoal or the signal fires of tho life saving station yes, there wero the fires miles below at Kitlcut Bench the life savers were out tonight. Off Kitlcut Bench wero the black rocks whero another light waa placed. But still came that insistent cry that seemed tinted to sound whenever the foghorn paused. 'It's on the shoal below maybe some one from tho wreck off Kitlcut," tdioutcd Ben, nnd ho pulled on his oil skint. Morning was breaking, but there was not much relief in tho blind ing storm. Ben nhot a powerful searchlight down at the shoal and glimpsed a mass of something. "You'll be drowned I" warned his nttnt. "But you've got to go, Benny." For the first time slnco his broken engagement Ben laughed outright. He kissed his aunt nnd innde for the lower floor. Half nn hour afterward he brought up ono by ono four people, three women and one man, survivors from the wreck of the ship nt Kitlcut, who had bxm put Into a small boat and had drifted to the friendly sholtcr of Sand Shoal. Thoy were nil wnrmly dressed, and after the keeper and his family had worked over them for hours and put them to bed they slept nil through tho next day nnd In more or less degrees of (tlffness came down to supper, whero a steaming fish chowder nwnltcl them. Two of the women were stewardesses on board the wrecked steamer, whllo the third was a passenger, a girl of twenty, with eyes like brown punales wet with dew and the most appealing smllo Ben had ever seen. ,Bhe was evidently In moderate circumstances, and it dovelopod that sho was on her way from Boton to another city to find work. Tho only man from the wrecked boat was a cook who rouirt speak little Engllth, but gave n. lusty hand in helping Ben reach the life saving station. . . Tho two women and the cook went away the following day, but tho girl, who had lost all her belonging; in tho wreck, stayed on nt Aunt Hannah s Nuggcsticn. "I need n light hand to help mo with the work,n ald the nstute old lady. "All this worry and flurry has upct me terribly and it may tako me nil winter to feel right smart again." All of which would have startled Undo Pete and Ben had they heard it. . , So Mnrjorio Lee stayed on nnd helped a good deal, and they all grew so fond of her that they would not let her go. She was an orphan, and she hnd grown to lovo tho sturdy keeper nnd his owest wife, and no for Bon, ho was a hero In bcr shy eyes. "You nro my gift from the sea, Mar jorle," he told her one night when they watched the etnrs togethor from a win dow on tho narrow staircase. This was in June nnd the stars were soft and the breeze was very tender with these lovers. "No, dear, I give myself to you, but the sea did help us a lot, didn't it? and she blew a kiss out to the calm waters in memory of that snowy night six months before. Thnt Is the way Ben won a bride and brought her to his isolated home, nnd their happiness is a beacon for all mariners that threatens to outshine Sand Shoal Light Itself.
