Raymond Kipping dangled his feet over the rocks near the pier into the ddy Eurrent of the Illinois River. early evening. the sun was just beginning to disappear over the willows of the west bank of the river. Behind nim the little town of Naples was quiet —Iits populace at supper. Presently, far up the river, the whistle of & steamer was heard—a long blast fol- lowed by two shorter ones, Every eve- ning at this hour the steamer Madeline I1 whistled as it rounded the island. It plied between Bedardstown and Valley, making a round trip each day. Just as the first blast of the whistle sounded, a strange thing happened. Kipping, vet a mere boy, dropped his fishing pole into the water and leaned forward. He was listening for some- thing and was straining to catch the sound. And then he heard it. In the dying echo of the whistle’s blast the faint sound of a bell drifted It seemed to come from the steamer, and yet so faint that it could hardly be heard except by & most careful listener. One, two, three, four, five times the sound was repeated. And then it ceased and all was quiet but the steady throbbing of the steamer’s paddie wheels. Kipping arose and silently moved to- ward the litile village. He was far more quiet than usual. The strange bells mystified. He had lived too long on the river not to know that the sound wat not an ordinary steamer signal. Arrived at his little home, he told the family of the strange sound. They all faughed at him. and he quietly asked them to wait until the following day. The next evening the entire Kipping above the little village. Somehow they were very quiet. At the usual hour, far up fthe river, the first great blasi of :ha steamer was heard and then the wo shorter blasts. That wes the signal {or the landing and the opening of the Arawbridge below. One of the boys on | ihe porch became restless. “Aw, shucks, there's nothing but the steamer whistle Raymond raised a finger for silence. And then they heard it. Intermingled with the echo of the blast, once more sould be heard the faint sound of a seautiful bell with five perfectly timed oeats. When the last bell had sounded no one spoke. Mr. Kipping. sat smoking his pipe in thoughful silence. Presently he spoke. “What do you make of it. Ray?” Raymond shook his head in a pus- sled_manner. “When did you discover it?” father asked. “Just the other evening. I was fish- | ing down by the pler and heard it by accident. 1 thought at first that it was snly fancy, but it happens fust after the Madeline whistles for the landing svery evening.” “Probably some signal on the steam- o1, explained his father, as if to dis- miss the matter. Here Raymond laughed. He looked ap at his father in a strange way. His voice was very low as he spoke. “I would swear that sound comes from the steamer, wouldn't you, dad>" His father nodded that it did beyond bt. 1"‘“‘V’\I , even though the bells seem fto s on the steamer, and can be heard 2 miles away, they cannot be heard on ‘he steame: al The elder Kipping Jaughed aloud. ‘Impossible!” he said. “But father,” Raymond interrupted. ‘I boarded the Madeline IT the other jay and asked several of the bands ibout those bells and they laughed in my face and said the Madeline did not : et 1 was crazy.

Every one upheld Raymond in his statement. They had heard them ring the usual five times. The older Kipping was determined to find out what caused the strange sound. The next dav he once more boarded the Madeline IT and tode the entire distance. He returned to ‘where his family waitsd for him on their porch overlooking the river. His face was radiant. He smiled at his family. “Well, I have solved the mystery.” he said. “But we are sworn to secrecy.” Raymond insisied uoon an immediate explanation. The elder Kipping be- gan it { "It is @ romance.” he said. “The skip- per of that steamer is in love with a fisherman’s daughter below the bridge.
