Admiral van der Kuylen first loses his fleet in the night, then has his flagship fired under him by a French squadron and ends all by being captured by a pirate.” “There's a misapprehension, if T may make so bold as to point it out,” put in Blood quietly. “You are not| captured gentlemen; yon are rescued. | When you realize it, perhaps it will ASPIRIN Say “Bayer” and Insist!
