IDNEY SANDS was an outlaw in the beauty lengue. She was pretty according to mno rule whatever. Having said she was pretty u would have been at a loss to explain why. You might have explained that her hair was pretty and that her eyes were good, and there you would probably have stopped and puzzled over the problem. But, while you were pu zling, you would still have steadfast maintained that she was pretty you would also cling to that opinion after you had abandoned any attempt to explain the mystery. She was too small 1o be a goddess; she was even smaller than Trask had BY E. J. RATH. (Oopyright, 1936, by €. Howerd West.) thing is quite informal here. There are no ceremonials.” “I—I wasn't feeling well.” “I had forgotten. Well, now that vou are getting your sea legs, we shall expect to see you occasionally. There are lots of nice people aboard, and some who are really interesting. We have a music composer, and a mining engineer, and a chorus girl. There are two ministers. We also have a pro- fessional ball player and a lady who paints deep-sea pictures, And—oh, I forgot perhaps the most interesting of all!_ We have a soldler of fortune. “I should think he’'d be doing a little soldiering on the other side,” re- marked Trask. “There are plenty of chances." “But he did!" declared Miss Sands enthusiastically. ‘“He fought from one end of Belgium to the other, and in northern France and part of the time in Alsace. “He was invalided home, but be- fore he could go back they put him on some secret work, and that's what he’s doing now. He says he wants to get back into the fighting, though. Really, he tells the most wonderful stories; not about this war, particu- larly, but about all the other wars he has been in. “He has fought in three South American revolutions and one in Cen- tral America, where they made him a /,,/‘ ,/f / ME COUGHED, UNINTENTIONALLY BUT LOUDLY. THE EFFECT APPALLED HIN. judged. She was not in the least clas- sic. It would have been irony to say that she was beautiful. But she was— It is too difficult. She was simply Stdney Sands. “I'm a little interested in adven- tures myself,” Trask said, studying her. *“What particular kind of ad- venture do you like most?” “F've been finding my own rather fascinating—it was. so unexpected.” “T didn’t know you had one.” “Yes, indeed! You see, I left father on the wharf.” “Waving good-by?" "I , suppose that's-what he was do- " she said speeulatively. *“He was of waving, at any You see, he expected to take the ship.” “And missed 1t?"” “By Ihout a minute, I should judge. I've hea.rd people hiring tugboats to get them , when such things happen; but father "would never think of such a thing. He's a professor.” She nld it as If the announcement 0! her father’s occupation explained thing. "A\mem minded, gested Trask. “Oh, absolutely! Are they any who are not?” “You're going all the way to Gal- veston?"” “We were going much farther: we were going to South America, after father had attended to some matters in Galveston. But I don’t know whether we’ll get there now; it all de- pends on whether I succeed in finding him. He gets lost so easily.” She sighed and laughed, achieving both feats simultaneously. “Of course, he's in no danger,” she added. *“He probably remembered to o back to the house, and mother will take him in charge when he gets there. But I know he 15 disappointed. He had his heart set on the trip.” “And they're both worrying about you, of course.” “No-o, I don’t think so. Mother knows that I'm all right, at any rate, You see, I take charge when we go traveling. She wouldn't let father go without me; it wouldn't be safe. I did try to send them a wireless, but’ it seems that it's broken.” “I hadn't heard.” “Yes. Something happened to the generators, I believe; or some part of it, at any rate. I think It's rather nice, myself. It seems so senseléss to &0 to sea and be tied up to the land at the same time. It's like sailing a toy boat on the park lake, with a string hitched to it.” “And you don't find yourself lone- some—alone?” “Lonesome! T should say not. 1 never found so much to do in my life. You see, I have father’s work to do.” “You a professor—1t00? voice was anxious. “No; not in the least. Please don't run away; I didn’t intend to frighten you.” She laughed musically. “\What I meant was this: father was taking this trip to make some meteorological @heervations, temperatures and pres- sure and things like that. He is try- ing to demonstrate a theory about the ‘weather; it may make him famous, if be succeeds. He sent a lot of instru- nts abroad that he expected to use. ‘would break his heart if the whole trip were wasted, so I'm doing the ob- serving. Not that I really know any- thing about it. All I know how to do fo to work some of the instruments and write down what they say. I &%t pretend to know what they mean. Nobody but father knows that.” “But I'll have a beautiful lot of figures and diagrams for him by the time we get to Galveston, enough to keep him busy for a whole year.” “A year!” “Yes, indeed. Why, father spent three months once studying the rec. ord of a single day’'s weather. Of eourse, I shouldn't care to do that perhaps,” sug- should say not! But doesn’t it take & lot of your time to keep the uments going?” b, no; I don’t sit around and nurse them the way father does. They reanly do just as well without watch- Ing, only he doesn’t think so.” “And the rest of the time?" “Oh, T sit on deck, I read, I walk, 1 talk to people—and dance. Trask shook his head. “You don't dance.” he said. Just float.” “That's a compliment, of course. “You Trask’s | sometimes 1| general. But he doesn’t use that title; he just calls himself a captain. He fought in China, too. He was also passenger on a ship that was at- hcked by Malay pirates, and he took command of the crew until they “ought them off. And, let me see— Oh, yes, he fought in South Africa, where the natives had an uprising, and he killed the chief with his own hand! “Quite a fighting person,” com- mented Trask. “He told you all this himself, did he?” “Oh, yes, and lots more. He has the most exciting adventures. But you mustn't think he boasts about them. What started him was my saying that I liked adventures. He's been an explorer, when there wasn't any fighting to do. He's been up the Amazon twice, he’s been through the heart of Australla and once he was lost for six weeks in Siberia. His whole life has just been one excite- ment after another.” “Evidently,” sald Trask “What's the name of this mmrknb o person?” “Capt. Ferriss. He's an American, you know, but he’s fought under so many flags that I should think he'd forget his nationality sometimes." It was foolish, but Trask found himself dislikig Capt. Ferriss even to the extent of being slightly jealous. Suddenly she ‘asked the time and he told her it was 10 o'clock. “I must take an instrument read- ing for father,” she said, rising. *“So 1 will say good-night, Mr. Trask.” He walked a little way along the deck with her, and as they passed a couple of pedestrians Trask heard one say: “They had to give up the gearch. I knew they’d never find hi: ‘The girl uttered a low gasp and shuddered. “The poor creature!” she half whis- pered. “Do they know who it was yet? T be d.raamln: about it all night, I suppose. “You mustn't think of it again,” he assured her. “I can’t help it.” She paused at her stateroom door and extended a small hand. Trask felt remorse. He did not particularly mind stopping a ship and making an hour’s hard work for a boat's crew, but he did regard it as sinful to have done anything that might disturb the slumbers of Sidney Sands. I'm going to tell you something that will relieve your mind,” he said in a low voice, glancing about him. “But it's strictly confidential.” She nodded expectantly. “Nobody has been lost at sea from this_shiy ut—why, I can't understand: “Sh-h! TI'll explain some other time. I just happen to know; that's all. Now will you promise not to dream about it?"” “But how—" “Good-night,” he said, quickly, dropping her hand. “Not a word to anybody, remember!” She stood watching him, bewil- dered, as he moved forward and dis- appeared. Trask halted in a shadow and leaned against the deckhouse, think- ing rapidly. There was another problem to be solved—the return to the first cabin. If he achieved that |there. would be still another, even | more difficult—explaining where he had .been. Climbing back to the upper deck |over the route whence he had come ppeal to Trask. He doubted ¥y to perform the feat with- lout discovery. | “I guess there’s nothing for it but to walk back, if that man at the gate doesn’t hold me up,” he mut- tered. He found the barrier and the gate ’rendny enough, but the guardian was | there, pacing slowly. Trask stepped forward briskly, laid | his hand on the gate and had partly opened it when he found his pas- sage barred by an able-bodied deck- hand. “What is it, sir?” asked the man. “I want to go to the first cabin.” | “Against the rules, sir.” { “But 1 belong there.” “Then wnat are you doing in the |second-cabin quarters, sir? It's against rules for first-class passen- gers to visit the second cabin. “I didn’t know that. I'm sorry if Thank you. Did you see me? "l dld—4ud wished I were your partaer. “Then why dldn't you ask me t ahs asied prompiize { I broke a rule. But that unt pre- vonl. me from getting back.” ‘ou’ll have to be identified, sir. ‘0 Md for a steward.” Thas Jes ihe lass thing that Trask proposed should happen. He was not yet ready to face exposure. “OL, come!™ he sald. “It's all right this time.” “It might be some other time, sir," answered the man, shaking his head. ‘But I've got strict orders to let no one pass while they're counting up in the first cabin. ‘Counting up?’ 'To see which one of 'em is miss- ing. They've got an idea, but they want to make sure.” ‘But, don't you see, they'll have me missing if I'm not there, protested Trask nervously. “I'll send for a steward, sir,” sald the deckhand, to close the argument. He walked three or four paces to a spot where an electric push button had been set in the wall of the deck- house. Ahead of him, just across the rail, Trask saw the stairway that led to the first-cabin deck. He did not hesitate. Vaulting the gate, he took it on the run and was already half- way up the steps when he heard a vell from the guardian below and then a heavy clatter of pursuing feet. Trask darted across the deck and around a corner. Just where he was going he had not the least idea; he wae merely resolved to make his escape from the guardian at the gate. A #heltered recess opened at his left and he bounded into it. As he did so, hia shin encountered a sharp obstacle and he went sprawl- ing—into his own wheelchair. Like a flash, he squirmed about until he was in the seat and drew the steamer rug across his knees. Then he leaned back limply and tried to |and carried it to check his panting breath. He had been none too soon, for the deckhand went charging past him. Trask waited until the man was out of sight, then reached for his shawl and drew it closely about his shoul- ders. He found his hat and put it on. Here was luck, indeed, he reflected, even if his shin ached. Why, come to think of it, he had never been out of his chair at all! The very thing, he decided. Presently he saw the dark figure of the deckhand returning. The man was shaking his head and muttering. He cast a careless glance at the in- valid, but went on without stopping. For several minutes Trask heard nothing more save the steady throb of the Gult Stream's engines. Then came a sound of footsteps and low voices. The footsteps halted just bevond the range of his vision. “Come, Lucille, you must go to your stateroom now. Trask belleved it was the voice of Mrs. Kent. Certainly it was not that of Aunt Mehetabel. “Not yet; not yet,” he caught the answer, in a broken voice. “I could not sleep. I want to be alone a little, mother. I'll walk for a few minutes and then I'll come.” There was a feeble protest on the part of the first speaker, and then Trask saw the figure of Lucille Kent, advancing slowly along the alone. She paused opposite the ‘nook where his chair had been securely chained by Keeler and glanced to- ward it, shaking her head wearily. In the gloom Trask doubted if she could see that the chair contained an occupant. With & sigh that was audible at a distance of several feet, Miss Kent resumed her melancholy walk. There was a sudden tickling semsation In Trask's throat and he coughed, unin- tentionally but loudly. The effect appalled him. p’ll?:ero was a plercing shriek from the lips of Miss Kent, who stopped, faced him, stood for an instant as rigid as stone and then quietly col< lapsed iInto a heap on the deck. Trask was half out of chair when the nofse of runnl:l‘ (;u :w-oa uge and huddle back. h’:‘ntgtg’c‘ar hove in sight and bent over the limp form on the deck. He uttered a little exclamation of be- wilderment, lifted the slender figure where a light shone on the pale face of Miss Kent. Then, it seemed to Trask, everybody in the first cabin arrived. “She's only fainted, I think,” said the officer. “Which s her state- room?” Nobody seemed to know, but six women immediately volunteered their services in the work of resuscitation. Trask sat weakly back in his chair in the semi-darkness. “}:a (‘;lt m;: a criminal. He dared neither to mo nor . speak, but watched through h.l(-eloud eves the havoc he had wrougl “Ah, -hes coming to now,” sald a woman, “There—don’t hold her head too high.’ Miss Kent's eyes opened very slowly and stared wonderingly at the circle of faces about her. “Feeling better?” inquired one of the volunteer attendants. Her lips formed words, but the whisper was too low to be heard. Then complete consclousness re- turned and with it her volce. “In the chair!” she exclaimed. “Who? What chair?” She pointed over the shoulder of a questioner, directly at the spot where Trask sat huddled in his wraps. “The chair!” she cried again. She was standing now, without as- sistance, and the officer made his way through the crowd and ap- proached the shadowy nook. Trask shut his eyes and breathed softly. There was a touch on his shoulder and a face was thrust so close to his own that he could feel the man’s breath on his cheek. “It's Mr. Trumbull! ship's officer. The crowd surged forward. Some- body with an electric torch flashed its dazzling rays into Trask's face. Trask, whose mind until that in- stant had been in a whirl of appre- hension and doubt, suddenly became as cool as ice. He would play the game through, now, no matter what the end. Slowly he opened his eyes ana blinked at the light that was held close to them. He yawned nrodigiously, stretched his arms and starad about him. “What's the {dea?” he asked. nvthing happened? “Happened! Heavens, gir!” ex- claimed the officer. “We thought you were dead.” “I don't ¥now how you got that notion” growled Trask sleepily. Tve only been asleep. 'Asleep, man! Why, you weren't here at all! Trask sat up from his recumbent posture and rubbed his eyes. “Who says 1 wasn't here? I'm here now. What did you wake me up for?” “You mean you haven’t been out t that chair?’ asked the officer in- dulously. Of course, not. T can't walk, can 1? And the chair is chained so it exclaimed the can't run away.” “Didn’t you know the ship had been stopped for an hour while they sent out a boat looking for you?” “Looking for me?” Trask simu- lated complete mystification. ) Why dlfl;x‘t they come here to for “Your man—what's his namg “Keeler.” 1o found your chair empty, atter one of the passengers had seen some« body fall over the rail und had given the alarm.

Keeler stood staring at his patient. amazed to the point of helplessness. “Well, speak up, man!" “But _you were gone, sir mered Keeler. “That's the second time I've heard that nonsense.” “But, sir, I'll swear that you were not here.” “When?" “After the alarm was given, sir.

And you were not in your chair! “Had you been drinking anything, Kéeler?” “I never drink, sir.” “Yet that sounds rather impossi- ble,” said Trask quietly. “How could T get out of mv chair? And how could T get back?” Keeler shook his head aimlessly. “Did anybody but Keeler come to look at my chair, after he reported that T was not in it?” “] didn’t,” admitted the officer. “We gave our whole attention, of course, to looking for the man who went overboard. Somebody was seen to g0 over the rail.” erhaps some one did,” suggest- ed Trask. “But there's nobody missing, now that you're accounted for. Trask surveyed his nurse with a glare of studied severity. “Keeler, you've “Mr. Trumbull, sir “It appears that you are respon- slble for-all this trouble.” 'm not responsible for whoever went overboard, sir” mumbled Keeler, awkwardly clasping and un- clasping his great hands. “At least you're responsible for a “lld yarn about me. ut, Mr. Trumbull, I saw with my own eyes; I felt with my own hand! You couldn't have been there, sir!” It was Miss Kent, stam- now quite rallled from her shock, who ven- eck, [tured upon a new avenue of specu- lation. “Would 1t have been possible thut you fell u\eep——-und then got up and walked? Keeler turned to his patient with hopetul eyes, but Trask shook his head. “I have mever boen accused of somnambulism,” he said. ‘But in your rresem nervous stite, sir! It's possible, you know, Mr. Trumbull.' It's on account of your nerves that your legs won't work. Now maybe your nerves are all right when you're asleep.’ “Do you mean to starld there and lell mo," demanded Trask, “that if ver cxpoct to \vnllk again I shall h leep "Not !hlt, sir. But ' while your nerves are this way your legs are not doing their duty in the ordinary wi ‘ogether with his bullet wounds,” supplemented Miss Kent sympathet! cally. Keeler turned to stare at her, re- membered and nodded. “And you know, Mr. Trumbull” she added, “that under stress of ex citement you did jump out of your chair while I was with you this afternoon.” Keeler riveted a quick glance on his patient, but Trask bore it with fortitude. “It is really kind of you, Miss Kent,” he said, “to try to help my man out of a difcult situation. But I fear !hc explanation will not stand. I never walk in my sleep. Keeler has been gullty of an exceedingly stupid mistake. The most charitable way to account for it is to credit it to his excitement when he heard that somebody had fallen over- board. Keeler, you may thank Miss Kent for trylng to help you, but do not ever expect me to believe your preposterous story.” “Thank you for your “good inten- tions, ma'al sald Keeler, bowing to the goddess. ° “Well, I don't know what kind of a report to make of this’” muttered the ship's officer, scratching his head. You might put it in the log that I've had a pleasant nap,” suggested Trask, “and that all the dreaming was done by my nurse, I think I'l go to bed now, Keeler.” “Yes, sir.” The group of passengers parted and made way for the chair, after Keeler had released the padlock and chain. As Trask passed Miss Kent she leaned over and gently pressed his hand. i “I'm so relieved and happy,” she whispered. He did the only the circumstances—he blushed Keeler said not a word until his patient was inside the stateroom and the door closed..
