The next day. while the storm was
blowing Itself out. Wolf Larsen and
crammed anatomy and surgery and
■et Mugrldge's ribs. Then, when the
storm broke. Wolf Larsen cruised
back and forth oyer that portion of
the ocean where we had encountered
It. and somewhat more to the west-
ward. while the boats were being re-
paired and new sails made and bent.

er we sighted and boarded, moat of
which were In search of lost bosts.
and most of which were carrying
boats and crews they had picked up
and which did not belong to them.
For the thick of the fleet had been
to the weatward of us, and the boats,
scattered far and wide, had headed In
mad flight for the nearest refuge.
Two of our boats, with men all safe,
we took off the Cisco, and. to Wolf
Larsen'a huge delight and my own
grief, he culled Smoke. Nllson and
Leach, from the San Diego. So that,
at the end of Are days, we found our-
selres short but four men—Hender-
aon. Holyoak, Williams and Kelly—
and were once more hunting on the
flanks of the herd.
But Wolf Larsen. as was to be ex-
pected. being a boat short, took pos-
session of the first stray one and com-
pelled Its men to hunt with the Ghost,
not permitting them to return to their
own schooner when we sighted it. I
remember how he forced the hunter
and his two men below, a rifle at their
breasts, when their captain passed by
at biscuit-toss and hailed us for In-
formation.
was learning more and more sea-
manship; and one clear day—a thing
we rarely encountered now—I had the
satisfaction of running and handling
the Ohost and picking up the boats
myself Wolf Larsen had been smit-
ten with one of his headaches, and I
stood at the wheel from morning un-
til evening, sailing across the ocean
after the last lee boat and heaving to
and picking It and the other flve up
without command or suggestion from
him.
Dales we encountered now and
again, for it was a raw and stormy
region, and. In the middle of June, a
typhoon most memorable to me and
most important because of the
changes wrought through it upon my
future. We must have been well In
the path of the Tranapaclflc steam-
ships when the typhoon moderated,
and here, to the surprise of the hunt-
ers. we found ourselves In the midst
of the seals—a second herd, or sort
or rear guard, they declared, and a
most unusual thing. But It was "Boats
over!" the boom boom of guns, and
the pitiful slaughter through the long
day.
It was at this time that I was ap-
proached by Leach. I bad Just fin-
ished tallying the skins of the last
boat aboard, when he came to my aide.

tone:
"Can you tell me. Mr. Van Weyden,
how far we are off the coast, and what
the bearings of Yokohama are?"
My heart leaped with gladness, for
I knew what he had In mind, and I
gave him the bearings—west-north-
west and flve hundred miles away.
• Thank you. sir." was all he said
as he slipped back Into the darkness
Next morning No. 8 bost and John
son and Leach were missing. Wolf
Larsen was furious. It was like look
ing for a needle ln a haystack to raise
i that tiny boat out of the blue lmmen-
I slty. But he put the Ohost through

CHAPTER XV—Contlnued.
Two hours of terrible work followed.
In which all hands of u —two hunters
three sailors, Wolf Larsen and I—
reefed, first one and the other, the
Jib and mainsail. And when all waa
done, I gave up like a woman and
roiled upon the deck ln the agony of
exhaustion.
In the meantime Thomas Mugiidge,
like a drowned rat, was being dragged
out from under the forecastle head,
where be had cravenly ensconced
himself. I saw him pulled aft to the
cabin and noted with a shock of sur-
prise that the galley had disappeared
A clean space of deck showed where
It had stood.
In the cabin I found all hands a*-
•embied. sailor* as well, and while
coffee was being cooked over the small
stove we drank whisky and crunched
hardtack.
"To hell with a lookout." I heard
Wolf larsen say when we had eaten
and drunk our fill. "There's nothing
can be done on deck. If anything'*
going to run us down we couldn't get
out of Its way. Turn ln. all hands,
and get some aleep."
The ssliors slipped forward, setting
the side-lights aa they went, while the
two hunters remained to sleep In the
cabin, it not being deemed advisable
to open the slide to the steerage com-
panlonway. Wolf Larsen and I. be-
tween us. cut off Kerfoot's crushed
finger and sewed up the stump. Mug

been compelled to cook and aerve cof-

that he hsd a broken rib or two. On
examination we found that he had
three. I^it hla case waa deferred lo
next day. principally for the reason
that I did not know anything about
broken rib* and would first have to
read It up.
"I don't think It waa worth It." I
said to Wolf I-amen, "a broken boat
for Kelly's life."
"But Kelly didn't amount to much."
^ a waa the reply. "Oood night."
After all that had paased. suffering
~ Intolerable anguish In my finger ends,
and with three boats misglng, to aay
nothing of the wild capers the Ohost
waa cutting, I should have thought It
Impossible to aleep. But my eyes
must have cloaed the Instant my head
the deserters and the land. Thia ac-
complished, he cruised back and forth
across what he knew must be their
course.
On the morning of the third day
shortly after eight bells, a cry that the
boat was sighted came down from
Smoke at the masthead. All hands
lined the rail, and there, to leeward.
In the troubled silver of the rising
sun, appeared and disappeared a black
speck. We squared away and ran for
It. I looked at the gleam of triumph
In Wolf Laraen'a eyes, his form swam
before me and I felt almost lrre*l«t-
Ibly Impelled to fling myself upon him
The boat was near enough now for us
to make out that It waa larger than
any sealing boat and built on differ-
ent lines. Smoke, who had deacended
to the deck and waa now standing by
ly side, began to chuckle la a slgnifl
cant way. I looked at him Inquiringly
"Talk of a mess!" he giggled. "Don't
you see there. In the stern-sheet*, on
th* bottom. May I never shoot a seal
again If that ain't a woman!"
I looked closely, but was not *ure
until exclamations broke out on all
aide*. The boat contained four men.
and Ita fifth occupant waa certainly a
woman. We were agog with excite-
ment, all except Wolf Larsen. who waa
evidently dlaappointed in that It wa*
not hi* own boat with the two vlctlma
of hi* malice. .
We ran down the flying jib. hauled
the jlb-aheeta to windward and the
main aheet fiat, and came up Into the
wind. I now caught my firat glimpse
of the woman. She was wrapped ln a
long ulater. for the morning waa raw;
and I could aee nothing but her face
and a mass of light brown hair eacap-
Ing from under the aeaman's cap on
her head. The eyes were large and
brown and lustrous, the mouth sweet
and aenaltlve, and the face Itself a
delicate oval, though sun and expoa-
ure to briny wind had burnt the face
acarlet. When one of the sailors lift-
ed her into Wolf Laraen'a down'
atretcbed arms. *he looked up Into our
curiou* facea and smiled amusedly
and sweetly, as only a woman can
amlle. and as I had seen no one smile
for so long that I had forgotten such
■miles existed.
"Mr. Van Weyden!"
Wolf Larsen's voice brought me
■harply back to myself.
"'Will you take the lady below and
aee to her comfort? Make up that
■pare port cabin. Put Cooky to work
on It. And aee what you can do for
that face. If* burned badly."
He turned brusquely away from ua
and began to question the new men.
The boat wa* caat adrift, though one
of them called It a "bloody ahame"
with Yokohama ao near.
No need to go to any great trouble
for me." she protested, when I had
aeated her in Wolf Larsen's armchair,
'hlch I had dragged hastily from hla
cabin. "The men were looking for
land at any moment thl* morning, and
the vessel should be In by night; dont
you think so?"
Her simple faith ln the Immediate
future took me aback. How could I
explain to her the situation, the
strange man who atalked the aea like
Destiny, sll that It had taken me
months to learn? But I answered hon-
estly
"If It were any other captain except
our*. I should say you would be ashore
In Yokohama tomorrow. But our cap-
tain la a strange man. and I beg of
you to be prepared for anything, un-
derstand?—for anything."
"I—I confess I hardly do under-
stand." she hesitated, a perturbed but
not frightened expression In her eyes.
"Or Is It a misconception of mine that
shipwrecked people are always shown
every consideration? This Is such a
little thing, you know. We are ao
close to land."
"Candidly, I do not know." I strove
to reassure her. "I wished merely to
prepare you for the worst. If the
worst Is to come. This man. this
captain, Is a brute, a demon, and one
can never tell what will be his next
fantastic act."
I waa growing excited, but ahe in-
terrupted me with an "Oh. I see." and
her voice sounded weary. To think
was patently an effort. She waa clear-
ly on the verge of physical collaps*.
I h*d quite forgotten the existence of
Leach and Johnson, when suddenly,
like a thunderclap. "Boat ho!" came
down the op«n companlonway. It was
Smokes unmistakable voice, crying
from the maathead.
There were awift commands on
deck, a stamping of faet and a slap-
ping of reef points as the Ghoat shot
Into the wind and about on the other
tack. Aa she filled away and heeled,
the armchair began to slide across the
cabin floor, and I sprang for It Just

Her eyes were too heavy to auggeit

prise that perplexed her as she looked
up at me. and Bhe half stumbled, half
tottered, as I led her to her cabin.

thought It a certain ailly fastldloua

■pit* of me. and I merely ahrugged

Wolf Larsen pursed his Up* In a
long, qulxxlcal whistle.
"What's her name?" he demanded
"I don't know." I replied. "Bhe is
aaleep. She waa very tired, in fact.
I was waiting to bear the news from
you. What veaael waa It?"
"Mall steamer." be anawered short

He shook his head ln a bantering
way. and regarded me with laughing
eyea.
Are you—" I began. It was on th*
verge of my tongue to ask if he ware
going to take the castaways in to Yo-
kohama.

"What do you intend doing with

He shook his head. "Really. Hump.

CHAPTER XVII.
I came on deck to find the Oboat
heading up close on the port tack and
cutting ln to windward of a familiar
sprltsall close hauled on the same
tack ahead of us. All hands were on
deck, for they knew that aomethlng
waa to happen when Leach and John-
son were dragged aboard.
Wolf Larsen strode aft from amid-
ships. whore he had been talking with
the rescued men. The catlike springi-
ness In his tread was a little more pro-
nounced than usual, and his eyes were
bright and snappy.
"Three oilers and a fourth engi-
neer." was hi* greeting. "But we'll
make sailor* out of them, or boat
them aboard and deal gently with
them. Whatever they have done they
have been hounded Into doing."
"By me?"
"By you." I answered steadily. "And
I give you warning, Wolf Larsen. that
I may forget love of my own Ufe in
the desire to kill you if you go too
far in maltreating those poor
wretches."
"Bravo!" he cried. "You do me
proud, Hump! You've found your lega
with a vengeance. You're quite an
Individual. You were unfortunate tn
having your lire cast in easy places,
but you're developing, and I like you
the better for It."
His voice and expression changed
His face was serious. "Do you be-
lieve in promises?" he asked. "Are
they sacred things?"
"Of course." 1 answered.
"Then here Is a compact." he went
on. consummate actor that he waa. "If
I promise not to lay my hands upon
Leach and Johnson, will you promise,
in turn, nt>t to attempt to kill me?"
I could hardly believe my ears.
What was coming over the man?
"Is It a go?" he asked impatiently
"A go." I answered.
His hand went out to mine, and aa 1
shook It heartily I could have sworn 1
saw the mocking devil shine up for a
moment In his eyes.
We strolled across the poop to the
lee side. The boat was close at hand
now. and tn desperate plight. John-
son was steering. Leach balling.
The next Instant they were opposite
the poop, where stood Wolf Larsen
and I. We were falling In the trough
they were rialng on the surge. John-
son looked at me, and 1 could see that
his face wa* worn and haggard. I
waved my hand to him. and he an-
swered tbe greeting, but with a wave
that was hopeless and despairing. It
was as If he were saying farewell. It
did not see Into the eyes of Leach,
for be was looking at Wolf Larsen. the
old and Implacable snarl of hatred
strong as ever on his face.

NORTH OF THE ARCTIC CIRCLE
Investigation Ha* Shown That Agrl.
culture May Vary W*ll Be Car
rled On In th* Region.
That crop production may be prac-
ticed north of the Arctic circle la one
of the Interesting facts brought out
by a report on a reconnoissance soil
survey In Alaska. This embodies the
results of a study of tbe soils of a
vast area In Alaska by experts of the
bureau of soils, made for the purpose
of determining the possibilities of
agricultural development.
It was found that gardening Is car
rled on and grass thrives In Alaska,
up to and north of ho Arctic circle.
In addition It Is shown that tbe cli-
mate and soils of Finland are very
similar to tboae of Alaska, the lati-
tude of the two regions being practi-
cally Identical. In Finland a number
of crops are grown at a considerable
distance north of the Arctic clrclo.
liarley, for example, Is generally
grown as far north ss 68 degress
JO minutes, or 2 degrees north of
tno circle Almost 7,000.000 acr*s la
Finland were under cultivation and in
Improved meadow in 1911. That
country has a population of 3.140.004
(reported In 1 11). and about 85 per
cent of this number live outside the
cities. Crop production, stock raid-
ing and dairying are Important Indus-
tries.
This comparison with Finland
and another with parts of Siberia
are given to demonstrate the possi-
bility of agricultural development In
Alaska.
Soldlera' Pay Withheld.
In the prolonged campaigns of for
mer times British soldiers often re-
ceived no pay for years, and con-
sidered themselves lucky If they then
obtained a small part of what was due
them. In one of his dlspatche*. May
27, 1703. Marlborough complain* of the
great hardships suffered by a certain
regiment, to whom (27,600 was due
and pointed out that It would "much
contribute to the s*rvlca If *ome part
of It were paid to enable the colonel
the better to clothe his regiment and
th* officer* to aupport themselves In
th* army."

Old Lady Wa* Grateful for Being En-

A kilted regiment, while on the
march through a part of Scotland,
baited for a Sunday a rest at one of
the remote villages ln the Highlands,
where some of the braw laddies were
billeted on the Inhabltanta.
One old Infly had to find a lodging
for two of the aoldlers, Sandy and
Tam. and sho waa relighted to know
they were going to the kirk ln the
evening, she herself being unable to
go. Hor pleasure was Increased when
one of her guests, who happened to
be an accomplished shorthand writer,
promised to tell her all the minister
said In his sermon, though she had
her doubts as to how he would be
able to remember it all.
Sandy and Tam came back from
church, and tbe foruer read the aer-
mon out from his notebook, to the
admiration and aatonlahment of hla
landlady, who had never heard of
shorthand, and had no Idea bow any-
one could write as fast as the minis-
ter spoke.
When Sandy had finished, and the
good lady bad expressed her thanks
for the privilege of hearing the a*r-
ncon. she asked him to let her look
at the book he had been reading from.
Sho seemed much disappointed, how-

Farm water supplies may be divided
Into three classes, which in the order
of their liability to pollution are sur-
face supplies, shallow underground
supplies, and deep underground sup-
plies. The surface supplies are ob-
tained from atreama, ponds, reservoirs
and clsterna; both shallow and deep
underground supplies are obtained
from dug. bored, driven or drilled
wells, and from springs.
Surface water supplies should not
be used for household purposes or for
washing milk cans. They should not
even be used for laundry purposes
unless no other supply*la available.
Rain water from the roof is often
polluted by dust, leaves and the drop-
pings from birds. Any person who
drinks water from surface supplies
endangers his health If such supplies
are not adequately protected and then
purified.
Where underground waters are hard
to obtain, cisterns may be used where
the store of rain water and surface
supplies will be filtered and partially
purified.
Tbe cistern should be of water-
tight construction, to prevent leakage
and to prevent pollution from the
neighboring soli. It should have an
overflow drain and a tight cover.
There should also be suitable pro-
vision for straining or filtering the
water previous to its entrance to the
cistern.
T'npolluted springs are. as a rule,
good sources of water supply, since
the water usually comes from great
depths within the rock or Is filtered
through many layers of sand and
gravel. However, springs are subject
to pollution from the same sources aa
wells, and ahould be closely watched
In this respect. Farm spring supplies
are often polluted by the drainage
from bulldlnga and stock pens. Spring
water suppliea from llmeatone are also
subject to pollution from distant gar-
bage and sewage dumped ln sink
holes. The same precautions should
be taken for safeguarding spring sup-
piles aa In the case of wells, and In
addition the spring should always be
fenced to keep out stock.
After a pure-water supply has been
made available for the farm home
the quantity of water needed must
be considered. A suitable pumping
equipment muat be chosen and then
a satisfactory means for distributing
and storing (he water must be pro-
vided.
There are three general systems of
storage and distribution which may be
readily applied to farm conditions:
the gravity, pneumatic, and auto-
pneumatlc systems.
In the gravity system water Is
forced into the elevated tank placed
higher than the highest discharge
cock. A storage tank may be placed
In the attic, on the roof, or on a tower
outside. The agricultural experiment
station at Ames. Ia.. has designed a
silo with a storage tank placed on top.
Since there is considerable frictlorM
resistance to the flow of water through
the distribution pipes, the tank should
be placed at least ten feet higher than
