Of course we had put Aunt Caudice to bed. Aunt Candice always went to bed as soon as she got on board a ship. Aunt Caudice never got seasick, but she wus affected wlib bilious spells that came on her abruptly, without the least apparent cause, and that bound her to her bed for days at a lime. One of these bud overcome her Just afier she had caught her first whiff of the bilge ater, and ahe bad I had thought It Itest to lie down. voyaged with Aunt Cundlce before, and I wus erfecilr sure thut thla teH would Inst Shout three days unless the weather should get suddenly had. Aunt Cundlce does not cut much figure In this story; she couldn't, for reasons thnt will very shortly appear. I mention her. merely to show that Josephine and I did not always run about unclmpenoned. When we Imd put her to bed we went on deck to wall for Father. lie had not been able to rome down with us. but lie had promised to torn up before file steamer left; and of course we had lo be on deck to watch for him. We watched and wntclied and the minutes flew, but Dud did Dot upeiir. It was getting perilously near sailing time, too. Still, I was not worried-mu- ch. Dad always kept his engagements and he had sworn (across his heart and hope to die) to keep this one. So I will led and trusted. By and hy a messenger boy, convoyed hy a steward, came pushing through the crowd to our side and handed me a note. Il was from Father. Dont he worried If I'm late," he Caul and I have been dewrote. tained here ut the oftice. hut Cm Just about to start. Ill see you off If I have to hire a tug to do It." This wus consoling, and It pacified me for a time. But after a while I began to get irritated. Even If Father should come now he wouldnt have time to do more than say "liowdy do; good-by- " before the steamer starred. Then, all of a sudden. I saw Fred. He was on the lower deck and he was carrying a bouquet as big as a He was rampaging through bouse. the crowd exactly as If he were a football player chasing a touch-indown or whatever If Is they chase (1 never could understand football ) A humane desire to save the lives ot the people who stood In Ids path moved me to lean over the rail and bawl to him. He heard me, looked up waved that preposterous boquet and charged for the companlonway. A moment later he was beside us. Josephine was nearest to him and he thrust his roses Into her hands. "Im he punted, absent without leave, and Ive got to rush back right away.

Fred was halfway to the companlonway. plunging over perfectly Inoffensive people. I determined to punish Mr. Fred for that when I got back from Japan. Meanwhile 1 turned to the rail and looked for Father; It wasnt like blrn to be late. But he did not appear. I watched the crowd for a little while ; and then, tiring of this, I turned and contemplated the ship. It was about a block long (cross- - int "Where Where What?" She Carped. "We Cant Co Ashore Now!

I wondered, couldnt people who hnre our name behave themselves and not do things that would bring the law down upon them? Dlnsmore was a rather distinguished name; surely the few who had It might remember to keep it nut of the nmd. I didn't know Just wlint an Indictment was, hut I had a vague Idea thnt It was something disagreeable. "Wuxtryl Wuxtryl All about Curtis Dlnsmore Indicted." This passed a Curtis Dlnsmore! Joke. Curtis wus my father's name and I spun around. Here, boy! I called. Give me a paper. lie gave It, and I road it. It was about Father, all right A warrant for his arrest had been Issued hut had not been served, "because Mr. Dins-morHe was cannot be reached. seen to enter his ofilees this morning, and Is known not to have left them Mr. Mct'utcheon, bis head clerk, that he Is there but refuses to permit the premises to be examined.

And surely they wouldnt have dared to Indict Father without telling him about It. And sure he would have said something about It when he 'phoned that he wus starting for the ship! And he But why had starteo. of course. hadn't he arrived? I was sure that lie hadn't I had been watching for I was sure I couldn't him too closely. have missed seeing him.

Weve got to whispered, shrilly. stand by him. Come along!" Good heaven!" Josephine sagged. Then she braced up again. But" she began, but " Come along. Ton can have all the time you want to think about It when we re i.shore. Come I" I put my band and my whole one hundred and five pounds against Josephine's shoulders and ran her through the midst of the last squad of departing visitors onto the head of the gang plank. I could tell by the feel of her shoulder that she was not convinced; but then I didnt expect her to be. She went ahead, and onder the circumstances that was enough to satisfy any reasonable person. It was only when we got on the wharf and found our progress cheeked by tbe crowd that was rubbernecking upward that she objected again. "Who brought you the message from Father?" she asked. "Message? Oh, good gracious, Josedidn't get any message Faphine I ther hod no way to send us a message. I rend It In this paper." I thrust the miserable sheet before her eye. "Obi How lucky It was I heard the boy and bought a copy. Five minutes more and wed have been carried off, and poor Father would have been left all alone!" I Imd been steadily propelling Josephine while I spoke, and had gotten her outside of the crowd and well down the pier before I finished. When I did finish, she stopped dead. "How do you know that Father didnt plan to get us away because he knew thnt this thla dreadful thine wus going to happen?" she demanded. I caught my breath. Sure enough How did I know? My lower Jaw sagged. Then I braced up. Very likely he did!" I declared. "Hut what difference does thnt make? We're not going to desert him, even if he wants us to." "I am! Josephines voice wig decided. If Father had wanted ns to stay he'd have said so. He didn't say so; therefore be wants us to go. And I'm going." Josephine caught my arm and began to drag roe back I didn't Insist It wasn't necessary. All right" 1 said. If you want to desert the father who bo If you want to o ert Father, Im vorry I brougld you ashore. But Its too late to gel on board now. The steamer Is off." - - 1 It was, too. Josephine looked at It for a moment Then she surrendered. Ill sny this for Josephine; she has a most unfemi-ninhnlilt of surrendering without any hack talk, when she cant help herself. She doesn't fuss aDd she doesn't sulk. Really, she misses half the fua of being a woman. Silently we walked along the pier I called a taxi and we got In and gave tho man the address, and we started. We were half way home before eith er of us remembered poor Aunt Cun dice, prepared for the worst (which was sure to happen). Only she didnt dream how very worse it was to be I was nbout to speak of It to Jose phlne, but, on consideration 1 can consider when there Is no particular need to act without consideration I decided that I had better not worr her any more. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Odd Power Credited to Precious Stones Superstitions still persist about the magical properties of many stones On account of that associated with the opal, the proposal Is frequently made by Jewelers associations to re move It from the list of birth stones. Strange places have been looked tn to for stones possessing unusual re qulrements. The gizzard of a rooster Is said to have revealed a stone which rendered wives more agreeable to their husbnnds; the shell of a crab yielded a stone for sore eyes. Bends of paste or glass were In common use In ancient Gaul under the name of serpents eggs. They were thought to be generated from the breath of the serpents, being shot 'into the air from their hissing Jaws. Soldiers wore ser Invincible pents eggs (o make them It was long believed that a sap pbire would beal diseases of the eye: and such a atom was once given to the treasury of St. Paul s hy a well usv-meaning London grocer, to be for that purpose. to heal wounds, complexion and to prevent drunkenness.
