"Look here, Skeliy!” said Ratcllffe.
“Tm most awfully aorry If I have
Jumped on your corns, and HI apolo-
gise ag much aa you waft, but the
fact of the matter li we don’t seem
to hit It off exactly, do we? We want
to be mixed up In a big party more,
you and I, If we want to get on to-
gether."
"I told yon before we started I dta-
nked crowds," geld Skelton. “I am
dependent on no one for society.”
"I believe you would have been hap-
pier alone."
"Perhaps,” said Skelton with tight
tip*.
"Well, then, shore me ashore, some-
where.”
"That tg talking nonsenael” said
Skelton.
Ratcllffe had risen and was lean-
ing over the rail bealde the other. Hla
eye* were fixed on the Surah Tyler,
the disreputable Sarah, and ag lie
looked at her Jude and Satan sud-
denly seemed to him real live free
human beings and Skelton as being
not entirely alive nor, for all his
wealth, free.
“It’s not talking nonsense a hit,"
sold he, "and, If you can trundle along
the rest of the cruise alone, I'll drop
you here.”
* “Drop you on this Island?"
"No—I'd like to go for a cruise with
those chaps—I uienn thnt chap In the
mud barge over there. He asked me.
any time I wonted to.”
“Are you In earnest?”
“Of course I am. It would he no
end of a picnic and I wont to shove
round these sens. I cun get a bout
back from Havana.”
Skelton wus, under bis courteous-
nosg ns n host, heartily sick of Rat-
cllffe and bis ways und outlook. A
solitnry by ln< Ilnutlon, lie would not
at all have objected to finishing this
cruise by himself. All the same, he
strongly objected to the Idea Just put
before him.
What made him object? \\ns he

vague Instinct tel' him they were the
better people to be with If one wanted
to have a good time?
Who knows? But he bitterly and
strongly objected. And how and In
what word* did he show his objection
and anger?
"Then go, niy dear fellow, go I" mild
he aa though with all the good will In
the world.
"Might!” anld Ratcllffe. "Rut are
you sure you don’t mind?”
"Mind I Why should I mind?"
"One suitcase full of slut? will do
me." said Ratcllffe, "nnd I have
nearly a hundred nnd fifty In ready
money nnd n letter of credit on the
l.yonnnlse nl llavnna for five hundred.
I’ll trundle my atuff ever If you'JI lend
ues a boat, and he back for lunclisou.
You'll be off this evening, I suppose,
and I can stay aboard here till you
get the anchor up. It’s possible I
might pick you up at Havana on the
way back; but don’t worry about that.
Of course all this depends on whether
that fellow will take me. I'll take the
suitcase with me and ask."
“Now, I wont to be quite clear with
you. RatclIfTe." said Skelton. “If you
leave my ship like that—for nothing—
at a whim and for disreputable
chance acquaintances—absolute scow-
bankers—the worst sort—I want to be
clear with you — quite, absolutely
definite—I must ask you not to come
back."
“Well. Pm hanged!" said Ratcllffe,
suddenly biasing out. "First you say
go and then you say don’t I I think
we had better atop this. Tm going!
If I don't see you again. I'll My
good-by."
"And pleaae understand,” said the
other, who was rather white about
the mouth, "please understand—"
"Oh. I know." said Ratcllffe. "Qood-
by!”
He dived below to the saloon and
rang for Ids bedroom steward.
Burning with anger and Irritation
and a feeling that he had been sat
upon by Skelton, snubbed, sneered at,
and altogether outrageously used, he
could not trust himself to do his own
packing. He Mt on hts bunkslde
while the steward stuffed a suitcase
with necessaries, and as he sat the
thought came to him of what would
happen were Tyler to refuse to take
lilm. He would have to take refuge
on Palm Island. It wg» a comic opera
sort of Idea: yet. such was the state
of his tnlod. he actually entertained It.
Skelton was no longer "Skeliy," but
"that beast Skelton." Then he tipped
the steward and the chief steward,
telling them thnt he was going for a
cruise In that “yawl over there." On
deck he met Norton and Slnunons and
told them the same tale. Skelton had
vanished to his cnhln. He told the
first nnd second officers that he hnd
said good-by to his host nnd nsked
for a boat to he lowered.
“I ll pick you up most likely at Hn-
vnnn," said he to glaze the matter
over. “I expect I’ll have a good time,
hut rather rough. I want to do some
fishing."
Simmons directed the lowering of a
boat. The conipnplonwny was down.
The bnggnge was put In, and Stin-
sons. sealed by Itatcllffe In the stern
seats, took the yoke lines. Not a sign
of Skelton, not even a fnce at a port-
hole!
*‘f!lve way I" shouted Simmons.
As they drew up to the Sarah Tyler.
ISntcliffo saw Snfnn leaning over the
mil nnd watching them. Jude was
nowhere vlslb|e.
“Ilullo!" sold Ratcllffe n.i they
came alongside. “I’ve coine hack."
“I was lialf-expectlu' you," said
Satan with a grin.
“Will you take me for that cruise
right off?"
“Sure!"
Satan stepped to the cnhln compan-
ionway nnd shouted down It.
“Jude I”
“Hullo!" came Jude’a voice.
“He’s come back !’’
As Jude came on deck the suitcase
was being hoisted on board. Ratcllffe
passed down a five-pound note to the
boat’s crew, and then stood, waving
to 8lmmnns ns the boat put away.
Then, turning to SHtun, lie tried to
discuss terms, hut was Instantly si-
lenced by Jude nnd Satan. They
would hear nothing of money. Used
to sea changes and strange happen
Inga, they seemed to think nothing of
the business, and after the first words
fell to talking together.
The trend of their talk Induced In
Itatcllffe a vaguely unennny feeling.
It was as though they hud already
dlacussed Ills coming on hourd nnd the
storuge of himself and III* baggage,
us though they had known by In
sllnct that he would return. The size
of the suitcase affected Jude.
“You can’t keep that,” said Jude.
“It's a long sight too big. Huy, wliut
huve you got in It?*’
“Clotliea."
Jude tilted hack the old pnnnmn
she was wearing and took her seat on
the suitcase. Her feet were hare, and
she twisted her toea In thought aa she
sat for a moment turning matter* over
In her mind.
‘You cun stick the things In the
spnre locker." sutd she at last. “You
gonna have a gay old time If you
keep this In the cabin, tumblin' over
It. Belter empty her here an' curt
the muff below."
Rut cl life opened the suitcase. The
steward of the Dryad was an expert;
In u pn*t existence he had probably
been a pack rat. In nn.v given space
he could have tucked away half as
much as any other ordinary mortal.
Hut he certainly had no Imagination,
or perhaps lie hail been too busy to
cast tils c.ve overboard and see the
manner of craft Itatcllffe wn* Joining,
and Ratcllffe had been far too much
exercised in nis mind about .Skelton
to notice what was being packed.
Jude on her knees helped.
“What's this?" asked’Jude, coming
on a black satin lining.
“Confound the fool!” said Ratcllffe.
“He needn't have packed that: It’s a
dinner Jacket."
"Mean to any you alt down to yonr
dinner In a Jacket?" Jude choked and
sported while Ratcllffe hurriedly, on
hla knees, hauled out the trousers and
waistcoats that went with the gar-
ments.
“That’s the lining—It’s worn the
other ivny nbout—I know It’s tom-
foolery. Stick 'em all in one bundle—
Lord! look at the shirts he’s packed!"
•‘They’ve got tucks In them," said
Jude, looking at the plaited fronts.
“I know. They go with that tom-
fool dinner suit. You can't knock
i'-nse Into the head of a bedroom
steward. Come along and let’s get
them down below."
“Say," aald Jude, when they had
finished, “what are you when you're
ashore, nnyB’ay?”
Tin one of the Idle rich," said Rat-
cllffe, lighting his pipe.
'Well, you won’t be Idle aboard
here," said Jude definitely. “What
was your dad?"
“He was a ship owner.”
“How many ships did he own?"
“About forty.”
She turned to aee If he were guy*
Ing her.
"There was another man . In the
business,” said Ratcllffe, “a partner;
Rutcllffe ft Holt was the name of the
firm. The governor died without

divided up between my two brothers

“How much did you get?"
“Over a hundred thousand."
"Dollnrs?”
“No—pounds—four hundred thou-
sand dollars."
“Got ’em still r
"Yes.”
“In the bnnk?"
"Some; the rest Is Invested."
She seemed to lose Interest In the
money business and* hung for a mo-
ment over the rail, whistling almost
noiselessly between her teeth and
kicking up a Imre heel.
“Well," she said suddenly, ns If
waking from n reverie, “this won’t
Noll potatoes—I've got to get dinner
ready. Come 'long and help, If you're
willin’."
There was half n snek of potatoes
In the galley. She set the stove going,
ami then, on her knees before the
open snek, she sent him to fetch half
a bucket of water from overboard. He
found thp bucket with a rope nt-
tnched, brought the water, and filled
the potato kettle, then he brought
more water for the washing of the
potatoes. -
"Where did you get them from?"
asked Rntrliffe.
“Get which?"
"The potatoes."
"Bought them," snhl Jude; then, ns
'hough suddenly smitten by rectitude.
"No, we didn't, nuttier: we kldooled
them out of a fruiter."
"What's n fruiter?”
"Fruit steamer. Satan fixed her."
"How did he fix her?"
"Well,'’ (aid Jude, “It’s no harm to
hold up a packet If you don’t throw
her off her course—much. It’s the
owners’ pays, and they can stand the
racket. The crew likes It. and If
there’s passengers ahourd they Just
love It."
"Do you mean to snv you hold up
steamers?" asked Ratcllffe.
"Yep."
"Rut how do yon do It?”
“Oh. It’s only now nnd then. What’s
ensler than to lav In her course with
the (lag at half-mast? Then she
heaves to.”
“And .von honrd her nnd ask for
potatoes, or whatever you wsnt?”
"It’s an old ahip sunk south o’
