He liked English cooking and French cooking, but he preferred | one or two of the coolie dishes, and all the aristocratic dishes of his own people. One of the preferred coolle dishes was of course, rice, The other was pork, exquisitely roasted and served cold in narrow strips. Bird's nest soup, shark’sfin and one hundred- year-old eggs tasting for all the world like avocado pears, were staples. Champagne flowed, and din- ner wag a merry time. After dinner the Chinese captain, Filnt and the two pasengers played bridge in the old smoking-room. This had been scrubbed clean, and a punkah had been installed, With the high-silled door hooked open and all the portholes ajar, it was like being on deck, O°. OWERS had faced his first game with much misgivings. He was an excellent player, and disliked nothing more than being the victim of persons who had yet to learn the rudiments. But both Ivy and Flint had natural card-sense and played soundly enough, while Wong Bo, it seemed, had made such a hobby of Seunced upward and inward from the searest surfa if the sea.

It was then that Bowers realized that he had fallen into good hands. Wong Bo smiled a sudden approving smile at his partner. “Oh, you play Culbertson,” he said. The stakes were low and the games were most amiable. Wong Bo was the best player, but both Bow. ers and Flint preferred to cut with ivy, and this was not because as a rule she held the best cards, A young man is an irrational animal. | He would rather go down to defeat | with a pretty girl than win decisive }ly with a fat Chinaman, Both Flint and Bowers put them- selves out to be agreeable, not only | to Ivy and Captain Wong Bo, but to Jeach other. Wong Bo would have been glad to play all night. Like all Chinamen, he was a nocturnal ant mal, But Ivy insisted on early hours: three or four rubbers was her limit, Always while the winnings and losses were being computed, the cabin boy in an exquisite suit of silk brocade fetched a nightcap bottle of | champagne“in a bucket of salt and | ice, and an extra bottle in {ts straw jacket. As Wong Bo always carried | this extra bottle off with him, it was | fair to presume that he drank it warm through the night. This, however, was not the case. There was a large shipment of cham- agne in the hold of the Boldero, and | as this was not destined to be de livered to the consignee, it was with: | out any value in dollars and cents. To serve it so freely at meals and in the smoking-room cost Wong Bo nothing, and it would have inter | ested the two passengers to know | that tho bottle which he carried oft to his cabin every night served him |as a tooth-wash and a pleasant lo- tion after shaving. The days and nights were much alike, Little breezes rarely ruffled the waters, and by the same token, | there were few disturbances of the routine set for Bowers and Ivy by the nature of their task.
