suffering from a plethora of hard hick,
hut to Mr. I'lerce ho luul the appearance
of one recovering from a i>erlod
of dissipation. Annette saw only the '
picturesque side of Holies, and he
was tentatively engaged on the sp?.^.
"1 know the Newfoundland coast
bottor'u 1 know the chart of me own ;
face," confessed the pilot In a soft,
pleading voice. "Seeing that I was
horn In Straddle* Itock Cove an' lived
there until I was old enough to run 1
away, 1 ought to." 1
Annette was romantic, and she anticipated
Ills thoughts.
"And you want to visit your <>id
home again?" slio asked sympatlvotIcally.
"Yes, ma'am, I'm dying to do that;

break a leg celebrating the event. Of
course no one wanted a sailor with a
game leg. an' I had to stay In i>ort until
the season was too far advanc<Ml to
go north. Then I shipped to the States
ag'ln to keep from starving."
Boggles limped a trllle yet from Ids
broken leg, and one eye seemed to
squint with dlat>olic cunning when you
looked him squaro In the face, but Annette
saw none of the ugly sides of
the subjects she liked, and Boggles
charmed her.
Mr. I'lerce grumbled at the Nirgaln,
but finally submitted. Pilots familiar
with the north coast were scarce in
Halifax, and the season was late anyway.
"Well, if* for Annette's sake
I'm up hero," he confessed, "and 1 suppose
I shouldn't object if Annette approves."
"lie looks honest, but a btt hanVtHul
on the surface by too much contact
with the world," ventured I)r. I^angdon,
with a smile. "I think his story
of !>eliig born and nurtured in Straddle
Rock Cove is a myth, however. I
doubt if there is such a place."
"We must visit Straddle Rock CV>ve,"
said Annette positively one day.
"Mr. Boggles"?she always dignified
the old pilot with Mr.?"can guide us
there. It's an immensely dangerous
harbor, and no one can enter it In a
storm except Mr. Boggles."
"T'.nfrcrlfs m/i v br? nil " drnu'U?1
the doctor, "but I draw tho line at go!np
into Straddle Rock Cove with him
In a storm."
Annette ignored tho Interruption. Mr.
IMereo was bored with the whole trip,
and ho was willing, to yield anything
for peace.
"You will visit tho cove, papa, where
Boggles was l>orn?" Annotto continued.
"You will make him happy again. lie's
been dreaming of this trip for twenty
years."
"If you will bo satisfied to return
home then we may run in the harl>or."
craftily replied Mr. Pierce, anxious to
shorten tho trip by striking any sort
of a bargain.
"Yes." rolliMn nt 1 v "nftnr o+nv

thereafter. It was the first definite
point of entry for the yacht. Captain
Reed looked the place up on tho
charts. There was a group of small
rocks off a dangerous point of the
coast, locally known by the fishermen
as Straddle rocks. They were marked
"Dangerous" and "No Safe Harbor For
Ships or Yachts." lie carried his Information
to the owner and grumbled
with mutinous intent.
"Oh. It doesn't matter In the least,
captain," retorted Mr. Pierce, annoyed
by the now Interference. "Annetto Is
persistent, and you must oblige her.
Really, It's none of my affair."
"But, sir, this man Boggles may
wreck us."
Mr. Pierce waved his hand entreatInglv.
"Talk to AJinette," he murmured.

Boggle* wua to report for duty the
following tnorulng. As his last tiuotll
clal act hu helped the mute to repair
the small accxykuu* gas aerator In
the forward part of the^.eht. This
was used In emergencies for the for
ward searchlight.
"We've got to keep a sharp lookout
for leolrergs now." Captain Uecd had
w-arnod, "and that forward searchlight
must Ik? fixed up."
Boggles dldu't know innch about u?vtylene
gas. Neither did the first mate.
Tltey tampered with the plant for two
hours, and then a mullled explosion forward
alarmed every memlier of the
crew. It was the tirst unite who exclaimed
IneotHM'ently:
"The thing the tank exploded right
In our faces. It was so sudden that I
could not say how.'*
Boggles couldn't explain, for 1k? was
blinded and hts Ixxly was blazing like
a human torch covered with pitch.* The
eaptatn and Dr. Langdon squelohtxJ the
flames, so the yacht was safe, and Annette,
with two sailors, rescued Boggles
from Incineration.
Mr. IMerce was angry and IhxxxI to
the point of saying:
"IIow annoying! Any one tmrt?"
"Boggles is pretty well done up," the
doctor replied, scraping tlH* charred
skin from the blackened face. "He's
blind as a tmt for one thing, and"?
Boggles groaned arsl stammer**! In a
hoarse whisper:
"I knew I'd never see Straddle Ilock
Cove agMn. I might have knowed
something would hapiK'u. (Jb. why
didn't I stay away?"
Captain 11?m*1 culled another meeting
to consider the question of changing
the yacht's course. "Mr. Boggles Is now
iiM-upm'iiiuou,' no exclaimed, "and of
course no mvo elm? Is familiar with tills
coast."
"That's ho," retorted Mr. Pierce, with
sudden enlightenment. "Then we must
return?at once." '
A malevolent light of >03' illumined
hLs features.
"Exactly," replied tin* captain. "1
shall order the eon rue changed."
"Not today, captain," Interrupted Annette
sweetly. "It siH'ins like-?like sacrilege
to turn around and run home so
soon after Mr. Haggles Is laid up. l?I
think we slioukl keep on a day or two.
There is some hope, l>r. I#ang?lon, Isn't
there?"
The doctor shook his head. "I'm
sorry to dlsappoiirt you, Annette, but
there's none. Boggles Is blind?totally
blind, lie may in six months or a year
recover some of his sight, but it Is a
forlorn hope."
Annette's face darkened. Mr. Pierce
thought she was about to cry, and lie
hastily said:
"We might keep on tlx? same course
for a day or two, captain, out of respect
for Boggles, and"?
"Yes, yes. certainly."
Annette gave them I Kith a grateful
smile, and the conference was ended.
Boggles absorlied more attention now
than before the nccUlcnt. Every one
paid him deference, but that was partly
because all, from the humblest to the
highest. knew tliat the trip was to be
abandoned tn a day or two. Hut Boggles
didn't know, uud lie kept moaning:
"I'll never see the Strnudle rocks
ug'ln! If I could see 'em I'd die la
peace! Ah, there tl>ey are! Are you
here, ma'am? Ix>ok at 'em! Scb the
sun oti 'em! Tlvere's where I was
born?twenty, thirty, forty, lifty yours
ago, ma'am!"
"Oh, Iloggles!" moaned A in vet to in
return. "Why did this happen?"
New, the meeting of the cold breath
from the north coast and the warm
wind of the southern summer plays
havoc with the sea at many points
between Newfoundland and Labrador.
Fierce elemental struggles of tin? atmosphere
shake the sea and earth, and
for days and nights ivo ship Is safe In
those far regions.
The Grayling was a stanch yacht,
tint rather undersized for a cruise so
far from port. When the wind struck
her she danced lightly In the choppy
seas, lsit as the storm develoi>ed she
grew troubled and frightened.
Boggles had recovered from his
feverish delirium and was rational,
lie hoard the storm and found an
atom of consolation In It. It relieved
his mind of tho weight pressing upon
It.
For a night and day the yacht drifted.
Then In tl?e blackness of the second
night the vortex of tho frightful
storm was reached, with the craft ill
prepared to meet It.
The forward watch reported breakers
ahead, and the Jagged outline of
rocks was seen In vhe distant Imckground.
The Grayling was drifting
steadily toward them. It was a matter
of an hour before she would strike.
Annette heard the summons to propare
for the worst. The two boats
which were left would hold the crew
and passengers, and there was no alternative
Imf to trust their lives to
the tender mercies of the breakers In
them.
"Hollos, you must rise and go with
me," Annette said. "I'll lend you.
We're drifting on the rocks."
"What rocks?St raddle rocks?"
"I don't know." laughed Annette hysterically.
"It would be funny If they
were."
"No. ma'am, It wouldn't, for they're
dangerous?very dangerous In a storm
like this."
"Oh. If yon could only see, Mr. Boggles,
you would save us!"

"Isn't Ik' blind?" snorted tlx> owner.
"Y??s, we're all blind," answered the

"That was as close as we could run

Boggles, with both hands on

"Now," with a sigh, "for tlx? Straddle

this weather."
"<?ood (Jod! TIhmi we're lost," groaned
Mr. Pierce. "We can't live In anything
worse than that."
"Hush, pupa!" whispered Annette.
"I think Boggles may know."
The yacht yawed and swung wide of
i the next line of breakers, tlxm faced
the black towering rocks. Boggles held
ber steadily toward them. There was
l no ojHMilng. The s?ii dashed mountain
high against their precipitous face.

There was a ^rlmllng and grating of

How Ho Thought Kings Should Die.
Cramer was Voltaire's Geneva
publisher. At a rehearsal of one
of Voltaire's tragedies M. Cramer
j was finishing his role, which was to
I end with some dying sentences. Vol1
taire, objecting to the manner in
which that death scene was played,
cried out in accents of scathing
scorn, "Cramer, you lived like a
prince during the four preceding
acts, but at the fifth you die like a
bookseller." Tronchin, being present,
could not help in kindness ini
terfering. "M. Voltaire," said ho
deprecatingly, "can you expect to
have gentlemen to bo at the expenso
of dresses and fatigue of getting up
such long parts if you thus upbraid
them? On the contrary, I think
they all deserve the greatest encouragement
at your hands, and us to
my friend Cramer, I declare that, so
far as I am a judge, ho dies w ith tho
I same dignity ho lived."
Voltaire raised his head and
glanced defiantly at Tronchin.

"The boy, Walter Farquhar Ifook,
