Thera was mutual speculation in the eyes of both. \ It was Lucile who abandoned the silent duel. She glanced toward her aunt, and there was the faintes: suggestion of a curl at the corners of her finely chiseled lips. As for Sidney, she neither smiled, frown- ed nor indicated the least emotion of any kind. She looked like a completely contented woman. Captain Blodgett riveted a stern glance upon the figures of Trask's nurse, J "What's your name?" he demand. ed, suddenly. "Keeler, sir." "You're -in charge of this man?" "Yes, sir."

"You're lying," announced Cap- tain Blodgett bluntly. Keeler bit his lip, but made no reply. Trask could feel his great hands gripping the back of the chair so that it vibrated. Keeler was human. He might be a liar, but it did not please him to be called ond. "How about the night he was out of his chair for more than. an hour?" "Well, sir, I don't believe he was out of it." Trask half turned to look up at his nurse. His amazement was plain, So was that of the captain. "What do you mean by that?" roared the 1 "ter. "You were the one who reported him missing!" "I know fit, sir. But I've been thinking the matter over since, and I believe now that I made a mis- take. There was so much excite- ment, sir." Captain Blodgett lurched back in his chair and gasped. "You expected us that?' "I hope you'll believe it, sir." Trask wondered if there was hid- den frony in the monotonougly pitched voice of his nurse. He hop- oy to believe i {od to be believed! ° There was a considerable pause, during which the captain played with his watch chain. Aunt Mere- tabel broke the pllence, "Well, if something isn't done about this matter, I shall leave the ship," she annonaced. Trask hoped she would; and he would not have been deeply con- cerned if she chose the easiest way of doing it. : : % The Semtonce.
