der aboard Ore ‘and Lord Julian with mo, SATURDAY, DECEMBER (Continued From Yesterday) cried Blood In sudden tury But Wolverstono would not stop. “It'a the truth, you fool, Its that cursed petticoat’s making a cow- ard of you. It’s for her that ye're afeard—and sho, Colonel niece! My God, man, ye'll have a mutiny aboard, and I'll lead it my self sooner than surrender to be hanged tn Port Royal, ‘Their glances met, sullen defiance braving full danger, surprise, and pain, “The is no question,” said Blood, * of surrender for any man aboard save Only myself, If Bishop can report to England that I am} taken and hanged, he will magnify himself and at the same time grat!- fy his personal rancour against me. That should satisty him. I'll send him a message offering to surren- his ship, taking Miss on condition that the Ara- bella is allowed to proceed un- harmed. It's a bargain that he'll accept, If I know him at all.” “It’s a bargain he'll never be of- fered,” retorted Wolverstone, and his earlier vehemence was as noth- ing to his vehemence now. surely daft even to think of It, Peter!" “Not so daft as you when you talk of fighting that." He flung out an arm as he spoke to indi- eate the pursuing ships, which were slowly but surely creeping nearer, “Before we've run another half- mile we shall be within range. Wolverstone swore elaborately, then suddenly checked, Out of the tail of his single eye he had espied @ trim figure in grey silk that was ascending the companion. So en- grossed had they been that they had not seen Miss Bishop come from the door of the passage lead- ing to the cabin, And there was something else that those three men on the poop, and Pitt im mediately below them, had failed to observe, Some momenta ago Ogie, followed by the main body of his gun-deck crew, had omerged from the booby hatch, to fall into muttered, angrily vehement talk with those who, abandoning the gun-tackles upon which they were labouring, had come to crowd about him. Even now Blood had no eyes for that. He turned to look at Miss Bishop, marvelling a little, after the manner in which yesterday she had avoided him, that she should venture ‘upon fhe quarter- ‘but onty now Her presence at this mo-| and considering the nature of his altercation with Wolverstone, was embarrassitig. Very sweet and dainty she stood before him in her gown of shim- mering gray, a faint excitement tinting her fair checks and spark- ling in her clear, hazel eyes, that looked so frank and honest. She wore no hat, and the ringlets of her gold-brown hair fluttered dis- tractingly in the morning breeze. Captain Blood bared his head and bowed silently in a greeting which returned composedly and for- mally. “What 1s happening, fan?” she inquired. As if to answer her a third gun spoke from the ships towards which she was looking intent and won- deringly. A frown rumpled her brow. She looked from one to the vther of the men who ‘stood there fo glum and obviously Ill at ease. “They are ships of the Jamaica fleet,” his lordship answered her. It should In any case have been & sufficient explanation. But be- fore more could be added, their at tention was drawn at last to Ogle. who came bounding up the broad ladder, and to the men lounging aft ADVEN OF THE Bishop's} “Ye're} Lord Jul-| 8, 1028, LOOD 1D by Rafael Sabatini © RAPARL SARATINI ARRGT NEA SERVICE ine. ]in his wake, in all of whieh, in- stinotively, they apprehended Vague menace, At the head of the companion, Ogle found his progress barred by | Blood, who confronted him, a sud | den steenness In his faco and in every Ine of him, “What's this?" manded sharply, on thy gun-deck, left ity | Thus challenged, the obvious tru. culence faded out of Ogle's bear- {ing, quenched by the old habit of obedience and the natural domin- ance that was the secret of tho Captain's rule over his wild follow- era, But it gave no paiise to the gunner’s intention, .

Copy Ho right, America’ es Bureau It} The | Cynthia Grey: Married Man Uses Of fice Club Meetings for Hucuse for “Stepping Out’—Calls Wife “Narrow-Mind- e@” When She Asks for Explanation. Dear Miss Grey: I'think your opinion is always very fair and unbiased, so I am bringing my sorrow to you. I have one relative in the city to whom I might confide, but still, it is hard to acknowledge one is not perfectly happy. We have been married a good many years and have @ daughter in school. We have made our home in Seattle for nearly eight years. My husband is employed where both male and female, married and single, work. They have a so-called association for betterment of working conditions, ete. Their meetings are held in the evenings in a good-sized hall. They have their business session first, afterwards they dance and serve refreshments. Don't you think it would be nice to invite the wives, hus- bands and sweethearts of those who belong to join in the en- tertainment afterwards? But it is just for those who work at this particular place. | My husband seems to look forward to these meeting nights. One evening we happened to have a dinner engage ment on one of these nights, but it had to be postponed. He says I am very narrow-minded and am at liberty to do as he does, if I care to, ‘ He doesn't come home to dinner on these nights as it | rushes him so, yet he has been seen driving a certain party | who works at his place around, and he has been known to take some of these young girls home afterwards. When 1 asked him about it he said it was only his duty to help a | fellow worker as it saved her a lot of time. I think that would work very nicely at work, but after working hours it seems to be only fair to me that I should be told about it, at least. I will anxiously await your answer. A SCHOOL GIRL'S MOTHER. Of course it would be nice, and only fair for the employes | to include their wives and husbands in these little social affairs. To be absolutely frank with you, I know of. no | such office gathering in the city where employes’ families lare not welcome at such parties. | We grant that there are always two sides to every story. |In order to render an impartial opinion, and thus do your |husband no injustice, I have asked five married men what they thought about your case and they all gave the same lanswer: That. your husband is “kidding” you—‘framing” lon you, and using these office gatherings merely as an ex- cu.
