As it was. it fell fairly upon my breast. l rould not throw it aside; the way was t0" narrow. I held lt up in my hands and forced my way through. although what I should meet or where I should bring up on the other side I knew not. I thrust hard and harder with my feet and presently my way was clear. and l shoved my- self through the opening. With one great liuzil efl'ort I rolled the rock aside and then lay on my hark on the sand. breathless. exhausted.

We were in a more spnvious cave. The stream. fed by other brooks. had hevumc- larger The descent was much more rapid. The (-Iifl wall was. I be- lieve. narrower fit the treasure cave than anywhere else in the islzmd.‘ It was. perhaps. not more than half a mile wide. We, stumbled rapidly down the long vaulted passage to the other wall. As we approached it 1 half fearâ€" ed that the rock might be solid. and that the brook might plunge beneath it. but fortune did not do its Wurst for us. There wash rift in the wall. aroundnvhieh the brook ran. A long distanve away appeared to me a spot of ditnness.~ Rec-klessly we elasped hands and ran to the opening. Alas. when we reanhed the light we found that the entrmwe was closed by a huge stone. lt am not exactly fit the opening, and the lizht filtered around it, I stood panting. staring at it. “Are we to be endm now." I cried. “after having come thus far? Stand clear." I shouted. not giving her time to answer. Then with all my strength I swung the ax and struck the rock falr and square and by good fortune upon some fissure. for it shivered and a crack started.

The way was owned. We stepped out upon the sand. My clothes were torn to rage: blood was clotted in my hair and on my fore- head: my face was hlavk with sweat and dust.

I caught her by the arm. sat her down upon the island and sprinkled tho wa- ter from the brook in her face until presently lb. revived. I had no hbpe that the dinghy had been spared. but its plave was not far away. and we walked to It in silence. It was gone.

We walked up the end toward the giant stairs. There were men. islanders. at the top of the wall. but my first glam-e told me that we had nothing to fear from them. for the stairs were zone They were but a scattered heap of stones.

Some of our gear. the mmpas‘s. some pralslons which l had stored la the crannies of the rod; were still there. but they were useless to us. Some- thing else had happened.

A' certain college youth barely twenty years of age has been making himself very agreeable and popular with a crowd of little girls. Now, twenty is the age when boys usually shun the society of children and spruce them- selves up for “fussing” with their own contemporaries. But this youth flirts not, neither does he dance.
