"There's no hurry now," answered
Donnld.
Suddenly Duvles' voice came up In
agitated tones. "Donnld!" he cried.

"They wouldn't keep us In the center

"Hut tlien-rlo you suppose tlioy are

"I don't know," Donald answered.
"Full speed!"
Donnld. hazarding rocks, drove the
FrS hard hetween the mighty walls of
granite. In front of him he snw an
open body of water, ringed with far
awny hills. Ho was In Skjold fjord.
But not a vestige of the monsters was
to be seen.
Once through thnt gateway he lashed
the wheel and went on deck. The
quarry had disappeared. A glance as
sured lilin of thnt. The limpid wnter
of the fjord lny motionless before him.
Vehlnd hlra the passage seemed to have
closed.
He rushed back Into the conning
tower.
"Shut down!" he yelled to Davles.
"Tell Clouts to let the anchor go. Mac
Beard has beaten us."
Dnvles, released from duty, rushed
up, to And his chief standing at the en
trance to the conning tower, a prey to
abject despair.
"It's flulshed, Davles," he said wear
ily. "We're beaten. There's n missing
factor In that damned equutlon of
yours."
And he toppled over Into Davles'
arms, Insensible from want of sleep.
The tension of his nerves was broken.
Davles and Clouts carried him to his
cabin and laid him down. They re
turned to the reck, almost equally de
spairing. "The herd has left us, Clouts," said
the middy. "I don't know I can't un
derstand It Clouts," he continued,
lth a sudden Inspiration, "do you
think that you could Induce the queen
to sound that cntl again?"
"What, me, sir?" Inquired Clouts,
starting back. "Why she's not a
woman, sir, she's a devil Incarnate!
Abe won't eat, sir." Ills voice fell to
ft husky whisper. "And she won't
Wear the captain's blankets, sir."
"Perhaps she doesn't like them,
'Clouts. However what are we to

"I say, make for home, sir," snld
Clouts. "I never took no stock In the
Whote thing, Mr. Davles."
"What are you tnlklng about,
Clouts?"
"Why, sir, I never believed In It from
the first, and I believe In It still less
now. It's nil a drenm, sir. There
never was no monsters."
"But you've seen them, Clouts.
CYou've been under the sea with them 1"
' "Ah, I know, sir, that's what we
ath think." answered Clouts with a
Wise smile. "But It's Just n drenm, sir.
5 expect that Oermnn cruiser torpe
oed us. Instead of us torpedoing her;
lor maybe she sank us with her guns,
and we're going to wake up in a Ger
man hospital In Hamburg In a moment
You haven't pinched yourself, sir?"
I Davles was shaken. He looked at
Clouts, blandly smiling at him, open
mouthed. He almost believed his the
ory. Clouts, unequal to the strain
upon his limited mentality, had ndopt
led a solution which seemed, under the
circumstances, fenslble.
: "I think we'd better pinch each
other, sir," said Clouts. "Mrs. Clouts
nlways used to say, when In doubt"
But, brenklng oft at this Juncture,
he pulled his mouth organ from his
toockct and blew the most discordant
medley of dissonants thnt ever Issued
fVom the apertures of that much-
abused Instrument.
To their amazement, the water wns
Instantaneously churned Into foam all
round thera. The F55 tossed like a
tork upon the waves. A fleeting mist
fcegnn to rise from the surface of the
fjord.
"Hatches onl" gasped Dnvles, and
they ran to save tho F35 from sub
mersion.
Hardly hnd they succeeded In this
and reached the conning tower when
Donnld appeared at the head of the
ladder below. His eyes were clear
again; It seemed as If his half-hour of
Bleep had recreated him.
"What's happened, Davles?" he
asked.
"The monsters! They're all about
as 1" cried the middy.
"Well, of course," said Donnld,
"You don't suppose I came here on a
wlld-gooso chose, do you?"
"But you said we were beaten, sir,
and"
"Nonsensol" said Donnld angrily,
"They've been with us all the time,
.You don't expect that they can keep
on condensing hydrogen forever with
out taking a rest, do you? Muscular
fatigue, Davles. Hello!"
He pointed through the observation
port, and, nbout a mile to port of thera,
they saw the niotorbont, bobbing upon
tho agitated waves.
; "We've got him, Dnvles," snld Don
nld. "I knew It. I knew It nil In my
Bleep tho solution and and It's go
ing to bo ull right."
Tbjy were amazed at his resolution,
He uttered hl3 orders In a firm voice

uccess. Through tho port they
(watched the motorbont tossing toward
them over the waves. They could
fciake out MacBcnrd's figure beside the
leucines. Ida wns doubtless within the
totbin.

Davles, take toe engines again."

DEEP SEA
By VICTOR ROUSSEAU
(Copyright by W. C Chapman)
MncBenrd Had seen them. He was
working frantically at the engine. The
Inlnnd sen still henved, but It was be
ginning to subside ns the monsters, for
getful of Clouts' mouth orgnn, hegnn
to draw toward the submarine ngnln.
Then, for the third time, the Im
prisoned queen gave the swarming call.
The sound, soft, yet Incredibly volu
minous, rolled from tho Interior of the
ship and seemed to fill the universe.
It was like a deep, soft note upon
some mighty organ. And tho response
wns Instant.
Tor the third time the swarm, mad
dened by the call, leaped toward its
lender. And, ns on Fuir Island, n tidal
bore came on, a wnll of water which
struck the F55 and rendered her help
less In nn'fJnstiint, It dashed her round
like a top? It drove her, uncontrollable,
before It. In nn Instnnt the steering
gear wns disabled, and tho vessel
skidded through the wnves toward tho
cliffs of the fjord, which grew larger
with unbelievable swiftness.
It was the last voyage of the F55.
Tho battered old submarine which hnd
rendered such yeoman service, drove
hard on the rocks. A needle point
pierced her amidships, a score of razor
edges rent her flnnks. Slowly she sank,
still spinning, Into the seething waters
that whipped the desolate shore.
As soon as they reullzed that noth
ing could be done, the three had gath
ered upon the deck and wnited for the
disaster. As the F55 struck they leaped
Into the sea. They escaped the hid
den fangs of the rocks almost by a
miracle. A few strokes, and Donnld
found himself upon the shore, which
the waves were wildly lashing, and
helping Dnvles to scramble out.
They gasped a moment and recov
ered their breath.
"Where's Clouts?" asked Donald
anxiously.
Then they snw the sailor's hend bob
bing among the waves. He was ap
parently clinging to a point of rock
with one hand, while he thrust the
other down Into the water.
"Clouts! Are you drowning?" Dou
nld called.
A bubbling sound replied. Donald
wnded Into the sen, clinging to the pro,
Jectlng reef to save himself against the
pounding waves. As he nearad Clouts,
the latter straightened himself and
sighed regretfully.
"What Is It, Clouts? Are you badly
hurt?" asked Donald.
"No, sir," he gasped. "But I've
I've lost It, sir I"
Donnld grasped hlra and pulled him
throuch the breakers to dry lund un-
centlv. At that moment Clouts hnd
strnlned his patience severely with his
lost mouth organ.
"Look, sir!" snld Davles, when the
three stood together once more.
Two hundred yards away Mac-
Beard and Ida were standing beside
the niotorbont. MacBeard'S light craft,
built upon scientific principles of His
own devising, hnd once ngnln estab
lished its worth. The waves and luck
had driven It ashore uninjured. And
MncBeard seemed to be inviting Ida to
re-enter It.
The game seemed in MacBeard's
hands once more.
"Come!" shouted Donald, starting
forward.
But before he had broken Into a run
Clouta stood barring his way.
Tve found her, sir!" he snouteu.
"Look, sir 1"
Donald was on the point of knocK-
Ing the sailor down. His mouth orgnn
hnd become a Justification for homi
cide. But Clouta was not making refer
ence to his mouth organ Just then. A
cry from Davles stopped Donnld upon
the verge of delivering his blow.
Donnld started and saw, close to his
side, the evnncscent, nebulous out
lines of the queen of the swnrm.
And In thnt moment the memory or
Ida faded from his mind. He stared
at her like a man bewitched.
ner face, which had nlways been
the most conspicuous parr, was
strangely clouded. It was, Indeed, as
If a veil of vapor had been drawn over
It. It seemed to cover her, like a long
bridal veil, giving her the aspect of a
shrouded future.
Davles did not stay to watch that
meeting. Neither did uiouts. mey
started ntfull speed toward MncBeard,
who, already having launched his mo
torbont upon the waves, was holding
out his hand to Ida.
She hesitated and drew back. They
were only fifty paces away. Anu, torn
between her pledge and the desire to
see Donald for one last moment on
enrth. the girl stood wnitlng.
Donnld. alone with the queen, lookea
Into her face and was aware of notn
lne else.
She rnlsed her arms, slowly sne
threw off the draperies of clinging mist
thnt covered her hend. She stretched
her arms out toward him. Sho fell
upon her knees.
Ti..r fnro was visible now. and Don
nd wns aware of a startling change
In It. The beauty thnt had dazzled
him wns gone. A milky pallor, spread
Inir along the veins and arteries, suf
fused tho flesh. Tho same change was
pnsslng over her that had passed over
tho dying monster in tne nouse in uni
tlniore.
With horror Donnld realized thnt
she wns dying.
She crouched nt his feet; she rnlsed
her eyes to his once more In that mute
yearning. And her face was thut of
an nged woman.
For n few seconds longer the eyes
looked Into Donald's. Then, without
closing, they seemed to (laze. A film
passed over them, and, with a shudder,
the queen fell nt his feet dend 1
She hnd given her life In payment
for her disobedience to tho rnclal law.
It Is by such disobedience that the race
evolves Into something higher than
J itself.
PERIL
By such man rose from his apelike
ancestry. By such, some day, wars
and all wrongs will cease.
Donnld tore the coat from his
shoulders and covered the body of the
aged woman-thing before him.
CHAPTER XVIII.
MacBeard Finds His Destiny. .
He gazed at It still hypnotized; he
wns trying to fight his wny back into
consciousness. For a few moments
he did not know where he wns, or
what was happening.
Then, gradually, he began to bo
aware of his surroundings, ne snw
the body nt his feet, nnd the high cliffs
about him. And In the distance he snw
Clouts nnd Duvles running toward the
motorbont.
Idn stood watching Donnld. She
was still hesitating. MncBeard had
found that he could start his engine.
His hand wns on hers. Dnvles and
Clouts were fifty paces away.
"Oomet" said MncBeard.
The girl shuddered, nnd suddenly
she lenped Into 'he bont. MncBeard
threw himself against tho gunwale nnd
pushed It Into deep wnter. He sprang
aboard. He was twenty pnees from
the shore when his pursuers arrived
nt the water line. Davles whipped out
his revolver.
MacBeard crouched behind Ida nnd
raised her body before him for a
shield. The girl knew nothing of this
maneuver, for she hnd fainted.
"Surrender, you blnckgunrd," shout
ed Davles, honrse with passion.
MacBenrd, trembling, cowered be
hind the girl. With his hand, stretched
out behind her, he guided the little
crnft. The distance was Increasing
swiftly.
Dnvles let his revolver hand fall. lie
knew that at that distance It was Im
possible to hit MacBenrd with nny cer
tainty. And he could not run the risk
of shooting Ida.
Impetuously he plunged Into the wa
ter. At first his desperate strokes
seemed almost to carry him ns fast at
the motorbont But soon this was
shown to be delusive. The distance
wns Increasing every Instant. Dnvles
clung to a ledge of rock and pnnted j
for breath. Ho shook his free fist at
MncBeard, who laughed scornfully.
Ho had seen the F55 settle beneath
the waves, nnd knew that by no pos
sible chance could Donald catch him.
He turned to Ida, who was just
opening her eyes. He took her hand
It lay limp nnd cold In his own. Ha
floor hor shudder, and a diabolical fury
overcame him. He struck her across
tho face with his open hand.

Light From the Left Side.
The well-known fact that, when us
ing the eyes for nny near work, the Il
lumination should come from tho left
side rather than the right Is often dls
regarded. Let anyone who considers
the matter of little Importance once
demonstrate to himself the dlfferenco
nnd he will never forget It. Take a
pencil nnd pnper and try to write whlla
In such a position that tne light win
fall from the right side. The shadow
of the hnnd or pencil or both is thrown
on the pnper In such a way as partly
to cover the characters one Is making.
This necessitates a closer viewpoint
nnd a conscious strain on the eyes,
Now let the position of the writer be
reversed so thnt the light falls on the
work from the left side. He will no
tice thnt the shadows fall away from
the work he Is doing nnd leave the
field unobscured. In making the
chnngo he ennnot help but notice the
feeling of ease that Immediately Is ex
perienced by the eyes. This applies
to any other kind of nenr work In
which the fingers work under the guid
ance of the eyes. This fact should
be remembered In planning school
rooms, workrooms, offices nnd nny
places where steady close work Is to
be performed.

In the face of changing styles that
make up the panorama of the seasons
there are a few things that reappear
each year and show some degree of
stability of form. A long and ample
cape of handsome fur Is nn Instance
jf this. Every winter we are sure to
meet the fur cape among the rich pos
sessions of some matronly wearer, who
,-nows better than to change It with a
inane less endurlngly good. The long,
Tull enpe Is never entirely out of the
running. After all, It seems the best
of all garments to choose when costly
furs, growing always rarer, are to be
made up.

This lesson Is n most dramatic one.
Surprise and revelntlon. rebuke nnd
encouragement are rapidly Inter
changed. Leaving tho multitude to
whom he had been preaching, Jesus
asks the disciples to pass over with
him to the other side of the lake (v.
:!.r)). "Let us pass over;" Jesus never
asks his disciples to go where he will
not go. How vivid Is the touch In v.
:1: "They took him us he wus." He
was tired and weary, ho- whose Invita
tion Is to "all who nre weary and
heavy laden." He who "bad not where
to lay his head." Is carried by loving
hands Into the boat, and Is soon lost
In restful slumber. I'.oth Master and
friends are soon to meet n great sin
ner but first they must encountered a
greut storm. "
I. The Great Storm. The Master of
forces sleeps calmly on. Why not?
Who else could afford to be so appar
ently Indifferent! Not so these dis
ciples. They have yet to know him
perfectly, nnd hence It Is natural that
In their nlurnv they should awaken
him as they view the rapidly filling
boat, nnd exclnlm. "Master, carest thou
not that we perish?" Weary and Un
concerned ns he nppears to have been,
he nrose nnd rebuked the wind nnd
the wnves. Wind nnd waves nre mate
rial things and therefore not suscep
tible to rebuke. Jesus fronted the In
tnnglble cnuse; he rebuked the devil
who was responsible for this turbul
ence; nnd the culm was commensurate
with the storm. The I'salmlst says,
"firoat peace hnve they that love thy
law." Individuals and nations nre
now in the midst of u "great storm,"
a day of crime, stress, distress nnd
tragedy; stpiggle, temptation, grief
nnd loss, nnd tho cry "Lord snve us!"
Is growing louder nnd more insistent.
Some of us look for the early return
of the king, but all should listen for
his words "Peace be still" for It Is
the peace which he nlotie can give
that hus power to calm the growing
turbulence of this age.

"permitted" the demons to enter the
swine thereby rebuking tho avarice of
the people and conclusively showing
that they had left the demoniac. Luke
tells us (8:37) that the Gndnrenes
were "taken with a great fear." Feur
