Yet I implore you to spare them.” He placed the rifle on the sand and raised her tenderly, for she had yield- ed to a paroxysm of tears. Not another word did either of them speak in that hour. The large triangular sail of the sampan was now bellying out in the south wind. A figure stood up in the stern of the boat and shook a menacing arm at the couple on the beach. It was the Mhlay ch-ier, cursing them with the rude eloquence of his barba- rous tongue. And Jenks well knew what he was saying. CHAPTER VIII. HEY looked long and steadfastly at the retreating boat. Soon it diminished to a mere speck on ‘ the smooth sea. The even breeze kept its canvas taut, and the sailor knew that no ruse was intended. The Dyaks were flying from the island in fear and rage. They would return with a force sufficient to insure the wreaking of thlir vengeance. That he would again encounter them at no distant date Jenks had no doubt whatever. They would land in such numbers as to render any resistance Moult and a prolonged defense im- possible. Would help come first?â€"â€"a distracting question to which definite answer could not be given. The sail- Or’s brow frowned in deep lines; his brain throbbed now with an anxiety singularly at variance with his cool de- meanor during the fight. He was ut- terly unconscious that his left arm en- circled the shoulder of the girl until she gently disengaged herself and said appealingly: “Please, Mr. Jenks, do not be angry with me. I could not help it. I could not bear to see you shoot them.” Then he abruptly awoke to the real- ities of the moment. “Come,” he said, his drawn features relaxing into a wonderfully pleasing smile. ‘ We will return to our castle. We are safe for the remainder of this a- ‘4' any rate." “OJ, ”0 Shoe Dressings of many kinds always in stock.

She was still grievously disturbed, and he naturallv ascribed her agitation to the horror of her cap- tme. IIe dreaded a complete coltapse if any further alarms threatened at " 0v ome. Yet he was almost positiveâ€" though search alone would set at rest the last misgivingâ€"that only one sam- pan had visited the island. Evidently the Dynks were unprepared as be for the events of the preceding half hour. T1101 \‘3 cm eithm 135111111: the island to 11111111111. tu1tlc 111111 [101-111- 1111-11111 01' 111111 1111-1111) called them 1111 mute to some other destination, 111111 the change 111 the wind had 1111111111111 1111111y 00111111111911 them to put ash0111. 1:11) 01111 all doubt they must haxe been sumrised by the warmth of the reception they encoun- tered.

The most L-zroi'ui serutmy o.‘ 11.9 sea would fuil to l'ei'eul them hegsz a distance of Six or seven miles :II the utmost. After landing in the hidden lmy on the south side they eroxsed the island through the trees instead of inking; the through the trees instead oi’ taking; the more natural open way alzmg the beach. Why? 'l'he fact that he and Iris were then passing the grown over tract leading to the valley of death instantly determined this point. The Dyaks knew of this affrighting hollow and would not approach any nearer to it than was unavoidable. Could he twist this circumstance to advantage if Iris and he were still stranded there when the superstitious sea rovers next put in an appearance? He would see. All depended on the girl's strength. If she gave way now; if, instead of tak- ing instant measures for safety, he were called upon to nurse her through a fever, the outlook became not only desperate, but hopeless. And, while he bent his brows in worrying thought, the color was re- turning to Iris’ cheeks and natural buoyancy to her step. It is the fault of all men to undermte the marvelous courage and constancy of woman in the face of ditficulties and trials. Jenks was no exception to the rule. “You do not ask me for any account of my adventures,” she said quietly, after watching his perplexed exDres- sion in silence for some time. IIer tone almost startled him, its un- assumed cheerfulness was so unlocked for. “No,” he answered. “I thought you were too overwrought to talk of them at present.” “Overwrought! Not a bit of it! was dead heat with the struggle and with screaming for you, but please don't imagine that I am going to faint or treat you to a display of hysteria now that all the excitement has ended.

I knew the men would not hurt me-after the first shock of their appearance had passed, I mean. I also knew that you would save me. But you, Mr. Jenks, had to do the fighting. You were called upon to rescue precious me. Good gra- cious! No wonder you were excited.” The sailor mentally expressed his in- ability to grasp the complexities of feminine nature, but Iris rattled on: “I carried my tin of water to the pitcher plant and was listening to the greedy roots gurgling away for dear life when suddenly four men sprang out from among the trees and seized volver.” “Thank heaven you failed!” “You think that if I had fired at them they would have retaliated. Yes. espe- cially if I had hit the chief. But it was he who instantly gave some order, and I suppose it meant that they were not to hurt me. As a matter f fact. they seemed to be quite as mue astonished as I was alarmed. But i they could hold my hands they could t stop my voice so readily. 0h, didn’t vell?” “You did.

He thought it best to $.20 along Turtle beach to the core fllltl‘flK‘llL‘O follow the Dyaks’ trail through the wood, as this line of advance would entail prac- tically a complete circuit of the island.

' The mark-4 on the sand proved that only one sunipun had been benched. Thence he found nothing of special in- terest until he came upon the chief’s gun lying close to the trees on the north side. It was a very ornamental weapon, a muzzle leader. The stock was inlaid with gold and ivory, and the piece had evidently been looted from some mandarin’s junk surprised and sacked in a former foray. The lock was smashed by the impact of Jenks’ rifle bullet, but close in- vestigation of the trigger guard and the discovery of certain unmistakable evidences on the beach showed that the Dyak leader had lost two if not three fingers of his right hand. “So he has something more than his passion to nurse," mused Jenks.
